it died after 29 years
No, but i could put some information together and maybe a few pics if your interested. The reason I went this way (push pump) was for cost reasons, roughly half of the under hood Carrier version, which I wanted to do but wanted to save a few bucks. I dont mind experimenting with slight...- Grass Hauler

it died after 29 years
Facet E pump and 70 micron pre filter mounted right in front of the tank valve on the frame rail. Easy install and wiring, takes more time to gather the parts. Probably costs about 70$ total. I could get you part numbers and a parts list if you want.- Grass Hauler

Upgrade my IDI or buy a new truck?
Awesome truck! Whew! bullet dodged there, good choice on keeping it. I pull 11k behind mine quite often and wouldn't be afraid of loading more on. Although I attest that to the 5spd and 4.10's but also has plenty under the hood to get the job done. ;Sweet- Grass Hauler

Tick/Click/Clack
Dont mean to steal a thread but hoping this one doesn't die quite yet. Mine is really only making the noise after warming up. Also it has been coming and going at times while driving and idling. It has gotten cold here so I have been dumping quite a bit of Howes anti gel in with #2fuel and...- Grass Hauler

Tick/Click/Clack
Mine makes the same noise and is driving me nuts. It did go away for a few months and has recently returned and is getting louder also much colder outside now. With my miles I was hoping injectors 140k. Last time I cracked the lines the noise wasnt there so when I get time I will try that again...- Grass Hauler

WMO mix In Torpedo Heater?
Good to know, i will probably stick with the original plan of 1/3wmo 2/3d2 for a while to see how it goes. Very true on leaving it unattended this might only happen once or twice a year for 5hrs while I get a nap between snowfalls.- Grass Hauler

WMO mix In Torpedo Heater?
Thanks for the suggestions. I made a really horrible filtering system to temporarily test, (no you cant see pics LOL) its very slow but thats ok it gives me something to do in the off season. Last night I mixed 1/3 gal diesel to 1 gal WMO and dumped it in the heater which already had 2.5 gal of...- Grass Hauler

WMO mix In Torpedo Heater?
Seams like a few of you guys run a mix in your trucks. Hope its ok to post about this stuff in this section. I have a snow removal business and have an insulated shop with no heat. Last two seasons I have used my Remington 70k BTU heater on #2 Diesel. I have 20 gallons of WMO I would like to mix...- Grass Hauler

My Rear Differential Good Luck!
Hi LCAM, Last night after watching a youtube video, I removed the cover again, scrapped excess RTV, then used emery cloth, then used brake clean, reapplied RTV and only snugged the bolts. Will refill today today to check. Thanks for the suggestions, hope this method works.- Grass Hauler

Turbo Oil Feed Line Leaking, I Need a Fix
Thats a surprising price from Ford I would have thought 100$ if you could even get it. I did finally fix it yesterday, found the crusty old olives and replaced with new large olives that I had gotten, so far so good. So glad its not puking oil all over my engine and floor anymore just wish...- Grass Hauler

Turbo Oil Feed Line Leaking, I Need a Fix
Should be ok, it did run for 10min but there was oil coming through the line. I took it apart while it was running to check. There just wasn't enough to trip the switch. Will report back when its fixed correctly.- Grass Hauler

Turbo Oil Feed Line Leaking, I Need a Fix
Well Im really not sure why its leaking because if I remove it out of the Turbo Oil T which is a male brass fitting into the T (Female) there is no seal but also not leaking there. If you take a 3/4 wrench and an 11/16 the fitting on the end of the line will come apart 3/4 part stays on the...- Grass Hauler

Turbo Oil Feed Line Leaking, I Need a Fix
No Oil Pressure! I attached a photo of the olives supplied. The medium one in the middle is what I used. I Split the fitting on the end of the line and inserted olive, fit great going back together and stopped the leak. But now there is no oil pressure, what is the correct way to repair this...- Grass Hauler

My Rear Differential Good Luck!
The rear section of the frame is straight which has led me to believe its a cab chassis and my insurance company had issues identifying the vin for that reason. Does that sound right RLDSL?
