    Dana 60 swap options

    Hey guys- been away a while, busy building a career and getting married again and moving and the list goes on. My trusty F250 has been treating me well, the little bit I drive it anyway.

    Anybody rebuild starters?

    I have the original starter I removed from my 92 F250 to install a DB Electrical. It was working, but cranking real slow. Anybody rebuild them successfully? Should I hold onto it or scrap it? Ryan

    Starter- repair or replace

    I've got healthy batteries and brand new cables, and still am experiencing intermittent slow cranking. I guess it's time to either service or replace the original starter on my truck. There's a local place that claims to be able to rebuild and service the original Mitsubishi starter. I've...

    Erratic Speedo 1992 F-250

    On the way home from Salt Lake City a week ago, my speedometer began behaving erratically. At random times, the needle will drop roughly 10% of whatever speed the vehicle is moving, and then bounce back to the normal speed. So far to diagnose I have: Observed the waveform of the rear axle speed...

    Cab floor pans the same 83-96?

    My trucks floor pan is cracked where the bucket seats mount. I removed the factory bench seat and installed buckets years ago, and during the course of removing and installing the transmission recently, I noticed the floor was cracked, which would explain why my seat leans to the inside. I...

    Source for Remanufactured MANUAL trans (ZF-5, 4WD)

    Guys- You may remember my trouble with the clutch and trans back in February. It appears that the first SMF that I installed was definitely drilled off center, and in turn damaged the input bearing and mainshaft bearings in my ZF5. I also have worn synchros on 2nd and 3rd gears. Due to my...

    Uncommon problem, need some ideas

    Hey guys- I haven't been real active on the board in a while, mainly because my truck has been parked for the past year or so. I have a company vehicle now, so the IDI has been retired from DD Duty and relegated to holding down the driveway and dragging the trailer around when needed, which...

    Ignition switch

    I've noticed the past few times I've driven my truck that I have to wiggle the ignition cylinder to get the chime to shut off when I remove the key, and now today it wouldn't crank the engine in the "start" position, unless I got the key tweaked just right. I'm thinking I've finally worn out...

    Battery maintenance question

    Since I got my new job and a company truck, my F-250 sits for weeks at a time. I put 2 brand new batteries in it in September, and don't want them to go to waste just sitting in the truck. I'm looking at a battery tender or CTEK maintenance charger with a desulfate feature. Does anyone have...

    CDR hose- factory turbo style NEED ASAP

    Guys- You may recall last week that my truck was giving me fits starting, and I traced it to a faulty connection on the glow plug controller. In the process, I tore the hose connector on the CDR valve that goes between the CDR Valve and the tube that leads to the airbox. (#23 in the attached...

    Fuel Tank switching valve questions

    Is it possible for the switching valve to fail so that only the return side of ONE tank is blocked? I'm beginning to think my fuel leak problems at the injector caps may be caused by the switchover valve. I only notice the smell and see the leaks when I'm running on the front tank after a...

    Injector Tester...

    Look what I found buried in the back room at work. Manufacture date says early 1980's. Looks like it's never been used once I wiped it off. I work at a Toyota dealership, and we haven't had a diesel in a LONG time. Looks like an IDI injector will thread right on without adaptors. What's...

    Repeat return line O-ring failure

    Hey guys- I've had repeated return line O-ring failure on the same cylinder. About 6 weeks ago, I began smelling Diesel when I approached my truck after it'd been parked. As the smell persisted, I traced it to leaking return line O-rings on the #5 cylinder. I replaced only the O-rings...
