    Local find in No Utah

    Found his ebay ad for the heads. <400 miles on rebuild. Says he's parting it out due to a block problem.

    Local find in No Utah

    I was thinking the same thing. I was watching an '85 6.9 with a banks kit for $2k recently nearby and it went quick. Might have to ask this guy why he's parting it out. Likely a younger person's first diesel and so they're just trying to get money for school or a power stroke. But then, they are...

    Local find in No Utah

    Don't know why it's being parted out. Body looks esp nice for Utah. And that sparkly radiator... http://www.ksl.com/?nid=218&ad=33600267&cat=&lpid=&search=diesel&ad_cid=7

    Engine vibrations?

    Must be the lack of torque on the drive line. I'm not sure of the mileage on my engine so was curious if it might be the IP. I know it's not the death wobble though. Had that back in '08 and that one lets you know it means business. Scary stuff when going around Ky back road curves.

    Engine vibrations?

    It is something like a ujoint, but the driveshaft ujoints were just replaced. Then again, maybe it is something in the drive line. I'm not sure anymore.

    Engine vibrations?

    So, over this summer I made a trip to eastern canada from Ky and have now returned to Maine. During my travels, I get a pretty angry sounding vibration between 65 an 70 mph (110-120 kmph) when I left off the accelerator slightly. Say, when I crest a hill or am decending through the mountains...

    parts in Tacoma, Wa

    Honestly I couldn't say what all was and what was not left. No idea what kit it had on it. Just saw that the drivers side exhaust manifold had connection for turbo and down pipe was still in there too. Turbo was definitely gone though. I almost pulled the IP but have determined my issues are...

    parts in Tacoma, Wa

    I was recently at the pick n pull salvage yard in Tacoma, Wa and they had a truck with an IDI in there. I can't remember exactly what year but thought it was a 6.9 year model. Hadn't been touched much at that point yet. Even had a turbo set up on it, though the turbo was gone. Just throwing...

    Engine Stalling

    I'll give the input on the CPS but not sure but not sure how it could be related to the wipers. I thought about wires grounding somewhere coming from the switch, but kind of figured it would pop a fuse before it would stall the engine, wouldn't it? Unless maybe it's the wiper wires jumping...

    Engine Stalling

    Ok, so I'm posting for a friend that has a '99 F250. She has a weird problem that I'm not understanding and that the local NAPA can't figure out for her either. When it rains and she turns on the windshield wipers, the truck tries stalling and she said it has died a time or two. If she stops...

    pivot bushing replacement

    i was thinking about pulling the whoe axle out to make things go smoother. just wasn't sure if putting blocks or stands under the front end of the leafs would be stable/smart.

    pivot bushing replacement

    so, going to replace my pivot bushings sometime soon before i wreck and was looking for any advise. main thing i'm stuck with is getting the truck up. i see no good place to block it up since the leafs are so long. unless i block it up using them. why did ford use the ifs for a 4x4 anyway...
