    Electric issues 93 6.5

    I ended up trading into a 6.5, and overall I'm pleased. There is a big issue with the wiring however (I believe). When it's been sitting overnight, it blows a guage fuse without fault. When I put it in reverse, my panel lights and radio and sometimes even my blower controls flicker. Sometimes my...

    Dynomax exhaust?

    There is a guy with a brand new in box 4 inch exhaust setup that I might be trading for($200) trade value. How are those systems? Will it give new a noticeable increase in power? I'm currently running a completely stock setup. How much louder? Will I need to adjust the ip slightly to account for...

    Zf noise

    In my truck, the noise of the engine inside of the cab is much louder when I am in first and second gear, and the other three are much quieter. This is even true if I am completely stopped and just putting it through the gears as a noise test. Is it the same for you guys? It's been that way...

    Ford TTB

    Everyone hates on the TTB in 80-97 f250s, but are they really that bad? Sure they sag a bit and suck to align, but I have never seen one fail and they do ride a bit better IMO. So really, I'd say they are alright, not bad, not great either. But they do get the job done Sent from my VS985 4G...

    Sm465 to idi?

    I am considering swapping an IDI in place of a tired 350sbc in a 77 Short box k10. I did some research and it seemed I could buy a diesel t19 bellhousing and put it on the 465? If so what needs to change on the input shaft and other parts? Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

    Light bar

    Normally I hate the look of light bars, but I do love the light. Well I measured my front bumper I made, and low and behold it had room for a 32 inch light bar. Yesterday I installed it and KC lights on my headache rack, and let there be light! I am very pleased This second one is without...

    No start 350 tbi

    So my grandfather put a new engine in his 89 Chevy 1500, auto tranny. It is a tbi 350, and he wasn't pleased with the oil pressure, so he replaced the oil pump with a high pressure oil pump. It has not ran since he replaced that pump, and he threw out the old one( God knows why before he made...

    New pump issues

    Installed a used but in decent shape injection pump into my 7.3, and now I have to set my idle at ~950 to have it not die when letting my foot off of the throttle quickly. What gives? Also, before I adjusted my idle that high, whenever I put it into second and third I would have pretty much zero...

    Battle of the 444

    7.3 IDI vs. 7.3 Powerstroke If given the choice which one and why? My answer is an IDI for lack of computers, cheap parts, ability to burn pretty much anything, and being able to fix anything on my own. (plus there is just something about that IDI at idle that nothing compares to IMO) Sent from...

    Ip replacement

    Everyone says to make sure not to remove the gear cover when replacing the ip. But the way I see it, you have to take the plate below the oil fill up to remove the ip. So do they mean don't take the whole oil fill up cover and just remove that plate, or is there another sneakier way of doing it...

    IDI starting issues

    Hello, I'm new to the forum, but I have been reading on it for a long time. I have a 1993 f250 with a 7.3 na IDI. When I start it, it runs for 4 to 7 seconds, and then dies if I don't immediately force it to a thousand rpms, and its a pain to get it started again. I have replaced the return...
