    Bushings

    I'm going to order parts for my D60 swap and need to get some new suspension bushings. I remember reading there was a certain type you guys recommended. Was it the poly bushings? Where is the best place to get them? Also, if I remember correctly, the old ones can be burned out and the poly...

    Axle swaps

    I've been reading pretty extensively on the Dana 60 swap for the front end of my 94 IDIT F250 extended cab 4x4. I've been able to locate an 86 cclb F350 IDI 4x4 (kingpin) with the motor in pieces that they guy gave up on. If I'm not mistaken, this should be a pretty straightforward swap. I was...

    WTB: Complete Front Dana 60 conversion

    As the title states, I'm looking for a complete, or mostly complete, Dana 60 conversion for the front axle on my 1994 F-250. I live in south eastern Washington, so most anywhere in Oregon or Washington would be good. Otherwise, if your price fits the budget with freight, that works too. Let me...

    Consuming lots of oil

    Hi all, I'm looking for some help here. I've got a 94 factory turbo IDI with 165k on it. I changed the oil in it last month along with new GP's. Everything seemed normal. I made a road trip from Portland to Wichita after the oil change and since then I really haven't driven it much. Last week...

    Power steering pump

    I just bought a Redhead pump and noticed my power steering pump is also leaking. It works fine, but seems like it is just pissing oil all over the place. I've read a few threads and it seems like most of the time the issue is the seal on the high pressure line fitting. I'm really not sure what...

    Bilstein 5100 v 4600

    Im going to be getting some new Bilstein shocks this month. I have basically narrowed it down to the 5100 shocks, but I am not sure they'll fit. They say they're for 4"-6" lifts and I am somewhere in the 2"-3" range. My lift basically consists of cut and stacked leaf springs (previous owner)...

    7.3L IDI injector install kit

    I bought this kit (p/n: 14952) from Car Quest because I needed 1 (one) return line cap. It costs $60 new, and yes I know you can get them cheaper. Anyway let my loss be your gain! The kit includes: return line and clamps, 8 copper washers, 8 o-rings, and 7 return line caps (missing an offset...

    Franken-injectors

    Does anybody know or has anybody experimented with combining injector parts from different codes? I have 2 sets of "B" codes and 1 set of "G" codes. I would leave the corresponding pintle and nozzle the same, but I was curious about the other stuff. I've noticed some minor differences like...

    Injectors rusty and cracked

    I'm in the process of removing my injectors to replace them. So far I have 6 out. Some of them have looked brand new and others have not. The ones that do not look new were rusty on the injector body. Is this normal? The picture is of injector #1 and is the worst so far. What worries me is the...

    DIY pop tester

    Has anyone here built a pop tester from a 2-ton bottle jack? I'm gathering parts, but I have a few questions. It seems that the majority of them that I see are stupid simple, like a T fitting with a gauge and an injector line. That's all fine and good, but if I wanted to do a timed leak test...

    Cleaning injectors

    This week I'm looking at pulling my injectors and cleaning them. I've got around 25k on WMO (W85 or whatever other oil I blend --no veggie oil). I'm experiencing hard starts in 90* weather with good glow plugs and plenty of smoke. My idle is rough until it warms up, etc., typical of coking. So...

    New Filter!

    I just got ahold of a new filter that was on its way out to the scrap yard at work. It's essentially an over-sized bypass filter for an industrial sized gearbox at a power generation facility. Here is the filter: http://www.cjc.dk/products/fine-filters/hdu-27/ and it's pretty badass. I've...

    Centrifuge issues

    Has anyone had issues with or warn out a pressure driven centrifuge? I have a 55gph fuge (OC-20) from Dieselcraft. I'm pretty sure it is exactly the same as the PA Biodiesel fuge. I bought it second hand from a veggie guy who I am assuming put some good use on it. He made 2 sight holes in...

    E4OD question...yup another one

    Maybe I'll be able to get an answer here, or maybe some guidance. I'm having some symptoms in my transmission. I noticed that it has been running a little warmer than usual and at times gets to be hot (205 ish) and it has been making me feel uncomfortable, especially since this is all unloaded...

    Front brakes

    I'm finally getting geared up to get my front brakes done. The front end almost bounces off the ground when I go to slow down! My brakes were done at les Schwab about 45k ago (front and back). Fronts had new calipers, hardware, pads, wheel bearing packed, etc. rears had new pads, adjustment...

    Manual glow plugs

    I've been searching to no avail about manual glow plus. The only thread I can find tells me to basically add a momentary push button to the controller that grounds the relay. This works, but it it still allows the original glow plug system to run and the button will give me extra time if needed...

    4wd/ transfer case questions

    I hardly ever use 4wd, the exception being when it snows or gets muddy. Believe it or not, despite our cold winter, we just got our first snow not too long ago. Anyway, my 4wd seems to work fine in general. I can shift in and out fine and it engages and disengages fine. But at speeds above...

    Another oil thread!

    I have been considering switching to synthetic oil for my next oil change just to try something different. Up to this point, I have been using Deloitte or NAPA 15w-40 regular Dino oil. I have heard good things about Shell Rotella T, so I've been considering that. However, a guy I work with...

    Possible head gasket issue?

    So I climbed under my truck to install a temp sensor for my trans and I noticed some coolant on my front drive shaft. I can't for the life of me figure out where it is coming from. There are no drips anywhere on the engine. I cleaned it off and took it for a drive and when I got back, there was...

    Factory turbo issues?

    What exactly qualifies a turbo as bad? I think I had some bearings go out on me or something because my turbo wheel doesn't spin freely. It is actually hard to turn by hand. I don't feel any grinding, but just hard to turn. I do hear the turbo sound in the exhaust, but I'm not sure if that means...

    Need help ASAP with timing

    Hi all, Working on timing my truck with Gary's meter using the line clamp and magnetic probe. I got a timing reading of 4.7. Which way do I rotate this pump? I know towards the p/s fender is advanced, but I am confused.

    My WMO processor

    I really hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting this, but here is my thread from thedieselstop.com. http://www.thedieselstop.com/forums/f22/new-wmo-game-340722/ This is where I went when I started out. The forum seemed busier and more helpful at the time, but I like to get my...

    Oiltofuel.com

    http://oiltofuel.com/compact-black-diesel-processor.html What do you think? I'm having issues finding any reviews on it. There's probably a reason. I would love to get into WMO since I have tons of oil available to me. The only issue is upfront costs to get the system and this is about my...
