    82 steering column into 86

    Would a tilt steering column with cruise control from an 82 econoline van (460) be a direct swap into my 86 f250 (6.9)tilt with cruise also. I think there is a short somewhere in my existing column that is frying the ignition switch upon replacing. Just hitting the blinker shuts the whole...

    Coolant Leak from GP controller

    on the way to work this morning I smelt burning coolant. Investigated when I got to work. Coolant is spewing out of the GP controller. Running manual GP set up so controller is irrelevant to me now. What am I looking at here? Thanks

    Ahh, it never ends. While in the driveway cranking wrenches earlier I managed to break off the brass fitting that threads into the rear of the injection pump. Was swapping the old leaking feed line over to the flex line and yay.. -cuss

    6.9 High idle switch

    So I have a bad tendency of leaving the truck running at idle for periods of time. I believe I've read some where before that this is no good. My boss has a deleted 6.7 Cummins he uses for work and whenever he parks his truck and walks away for an extended period of time he flips the switch and...
