    Grinding gears off

    When I try to put my truck in reverse it grinds like the cluch isn't releasing all the way. It has done this since i changed the flywheel, (Now SMF), clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, slave cylinder & master cylinder. That was 3 months ago and it still is an issue. It's a 1990 F350. The...

    I thought it was the rear seal.

    I haven't been driving my 1990 f350 because of a bad oil leak from the back of the engine. I replaced the seal when I changed the clutch. Still it leaked like it didn't even have a seal. Well yesterday I decided to look at it one more time. I cleaned it off real good and started the engine. sure...

    Another no start

    I'm sure you guys are tired of this complaint, (didn't stop me from posting it). Anyway, my 1990 7.3 will not start off the glow plugs if the temp gets under 75. I tested the GPs with a test light. All checked good. It has a manual controller. When I first push the button, voltage at the GP is...

    Which pump to use?

    I have a 1990 F350 that has sat since 2004. I been reading on here people putting an eletric lift pump on. I like the idea of that due to air intrusion issues. Can I just use a Facet pump, or do I need a special pump? What PSI?

    Air intrusion

    I have this 90 model F350 that was parked in 2003. I got it running, but if it sits a couple of days, it will start and run for a second then die. If I crank it over and use a little either it will eventually start. I'm thinking it's getting air in the system. What area's should I check?

    Pump shelf life

    I just picked up a used but good injection pump, lines and injectors for my 90 7.3. I could not pass on the deal because the guy only wanted $25 for all that. Anyway, how long can I store this thing? Is there anything I should do to it for storage? Thanks!

    Not starting

    This is the 90 model I bought a few weeks ago that has sat since 2004. I put ATF in the fuel filter. When I spin it over there is a noise coming from the intake like one of the valves aren't sealing. There is smoke coming from the exhaust, but it don't hit. The glowplug light doesn't come on...

    SD33 into a 1953 Willys

    I have a 1980 SD33 that came out of a scout. I have the torqueflite trans and transfer case with it. I was thinking of putting it in my 1953 Willys truck. I would rather bolt it up to the manual trans in the truck so I don't have to change the drive shafts and other things, but having a hard...

    bringing back from the dead.

    I just bought a 1990 F 350 with a 7.3 and 5 speed trans. This truck has been parked since 2004. Besides new batteries, what should I do to get the engine in running condition? Do I need to replace fuel filter? Drain the fuel tank? Oil the muffler bearings? Thanks for all advice!
