    Yes, they are available from both Ford & international... Check prices both places, certain ones are cheaper at ford, other's (most) are cheaper at IH..

    Fuel leak

    That sounds like your return line from the FPR (fuel pressure regulator)... It is attached to a squarish module on the side of the housing, no? and goes backwards, then jogs down and continues back some more?

    Fuel leak

    Common places to look would be the sensors in the filter housing, or the pump going out. Had leaks both places..

    Aux Tank question,.

    I've got mine plumbed through a check-valve installed next to the roll-over valve. I drilled a new hole and threaded a pipe bushing in there, sealed with JB-Weld. I've had an overflow leak twice, but I firmly believe it was caused by running WVO through the valve, causing it to stick. Since...

    Dumb question re: flywheel diagnosis

    JMHO, but a slip probably won't be the flywheel. Unless it's in REALLY bad shape (so bad you'd have noticed something bad happen), it has some play between the two discs. Probably between 1/2 inch and 1 inch. You can try to wiggle the masses to check your play. I think 3/4 is acceptable, but...

    Water Pump Question

    My pump came with a plug in it...I removed it and put the heater hose there (same as it was on my old one).... I'm interested where your heater hoses are connected.....

    Water Pump Question

    I've got a hose there, it's what feeds the heater core. (It came with a plug installed there...) I would say you could plumb the filter through that, I don't think there's anything wrong with doing that.

    Partial Looped Return on an IDI

    I'm looping on the back side of the pollack. 'If you loop engine side of it, you'll trap air. If you only loop the VO line before the pollack, you can purge via the stock return back to the front tank. But -- looping will have no effect on your purge time. There's two ways you can do that...

    Engine Oil Cooler

    Just did mine not too long ago....I've got a 94, and mine sounds just like yours. Not sure what to do about cleaning it -- there's quite a bit of space if you used water for cleaning to get stuck in the oil passage... For re-assembly, put the orings on the tube, then squeeze. No BFH, just...

    How water soluble is glycerol?

    Yep. Installed a plantdrive two-tank kit and burning it that way. The biggest reason I switched was time. I had stockpiled up several hundred gallons of oil and didn't have the time to do it. Other benefits of WVO (for me) were not having to buy methanol, an every-increasing commodity here...

    How water soluble is glycerol?

    Yes, more water in each wash should help to limit the number of cycles required. Once wash water is so dirty, it won't pick up any more stuff. Yes, bubbler on bottom bubbling up through the misted water. My bubbler is using one of those wood stones, and it doesn't really agitate as much as...

    How water soluble is glycerol?

    I let it settle for about 6 hours after each wash.....although the time required for each subsequent wash goes down a bit... Here's my thinking on the wash part. You're putting in clear water. Until the water comes OUT clear, you are still removing contaminants (soap, lye, methanol, other?)...

    How water soluble is glycerol?

    I think you'll need to wash more than just the one time... I would mist-wash (about 10% water), then start an airstone and bubble wash for 6 hours...I did that three times usually and it was good. As far as my experience, glycerol is water soluble, It's a good idea to pump it into your still...

    Minimum Purge Time for a 6.9/7.3 Pre-Powerstroke?

    Right, I wasn't saying my FPHE was flushed, although it did read like that....But by the time I'm cool, everything will be clear with fresh D2. Let us know how the fuel pressure works...where do you plan on putting the sender?

    Minimum Purge Time for a 6.9/7.3 Pre-Powerstroke?

    I kinda look at my fuel temp gauge, too. When I shut down it's always < 130 (that's as low as my gauge goes)....I'm running #2 through my FPHE, so by the time it's down to regular temp, I'm sure it's been flushed.

    Minimum Purge Time for a 6.9/7.3 Pre-Powerstroke?

    I know I'm not running an IDI, but I run at least 3 miles at 2000 RPM... I have the aluminum slug in my filter, too,so I have a little less fuel to displace than you might...(BUT -- what I run may be excessive for my situation, too)

    DMF Noisy

    I'm not sure about tranny damage from a worn flywheel, but I *think* it would be alright. What you don't want is for that thing to fly apart at high speed...that would be very bad and damaging. I was in your spot not long ago.. about the same amount of play. I bit the bullet and went with...

    poll- how long has your stancor 586-902 lasted

    truck wont turnover

    I know it sounds funny...mine wouldn't turn over this morning. Cold here too. What I did was turn the key without mashing the clutch, then mash it quick and hard....took off after that. I think it probably didn't actuate enough for the sensor to think it was in all the way... Could be...

    2000 Lbs of Compression???

    the 14.7 is the atmospheric pressure at sea level. at 5000 ft elevation, instead of 14.7, you would use 12.2... I see you're probably pretty close to sea level though, no? Let's try to go backwards... 530 / 14.7 = 36:1 compression, yowsa! You wouldn't add the 530 + 543, that 543 includes...

    2000 Lbs of Compression???

    Here you go... (actual boost/14.7) +1 X compression ratio So -- Let's say you've got 0 boost. 0/14.7=0 +1 = 1 X22 = 22 So, with no boost, you've got a 22:1 ratio. Multiply that by 14.7 to get the psi... 323 psi Now, let's do 5 5/14.7 = .3401 +1 = 1.3401 x22 = 29.482 5lbs boost = 29.482:1...
