    Hey Pull-n-TugTx, I have 2 more B61s if he is interested in owning a family. 1 is pretty complete with a big pto winch and gin poles, the other one is just a cab and frame. Located about 80 miles west Ft. Worth.

    OK help!

    This is true, but when mine was only stuck about 1/4 open (wasn't enough to see) my oil pressure at idle on a good aftermarket gauge was 2 lbs, 2000 rpm was about 15 lbs. After I "unstuck" the plunger it went to 35 psi at 1000 rpm and 45 psi at 2500. The relief valve may not be your...

    OK help!

    You can only see about 1/2 or so of the relief port when looking at it from the oil filter side. When mine was stuck open the only way I could tell was by feeling with an oring pick. See if you can "hook" the edge of the plunger inside the relief port.

    towing another idi home need advice

    I have been pulling trailers for 35 years and when I was a kid I had this tongue weight thing drilled into me forever!! I was about 12 or 13 at the time and was with my dad hauling cattle with his 14' bumper pull cattle trailer (we still have it) and the cows shifted to the rear of the trailer...

    Fan Clutch on The Chjeap

    For those interested, last night I switched out the new clutch off my 90 with the old one off my 94. The fit was perfect and I could not see any external difference in shape or dimensions. The fans themselves were a little different, as the 94 fan has larger blades so I swapped the clutches...

    Fan Clutch on The Chjeap

    That makes sense to me. The thing is my 94 runs hotter than what I like and I think the fan clutch is weak and a Motorcraft clutch even on Rock Auto is still $150 higher than the M/C brand on there for the 90 model. So, my 90 has a nearly new clutch on it and all it gets run is short...

    Fan Clutch on The Chjeap

    And why does Rock Auto show a YB3163 for my 94 IDI T? What is going on here? Oriellys shows the YB3162 (fits my 90) for $100 and the YB3163 is $384!! What are the differences? C'mon guys, somebody knows the answer to this.

    Weird Gauge Problems/Cruise Control

    It may be a bad ground, IDK where to start looking for that. I have had the wheel off and checked the contact rings, and felt all that was in order. I have also replaced the cruise buttons as that is what the tests in the tech article pointed to, but that didn't help any. The tech...

    Weird Gauge Problems/Cruise Control

    Ok, this in on my 94 F-350. The cruise control has been intermittent ever since I bought the truck and I have went through the diagnosis thread in the tech articles. I first noticed several months ago that by pushing various cruise buttons, it would cause my temp and oil pressure gauges...

    Why do you love your IDI?

    Have pretty much always been a Ford truck man, bought a new 86 F350 with 6.9 (my first diesel) then had a 90 CC dualie with 7.3, then I migrated to Powerstrokes, have owned 5 or 6 PSDs between my boys and me. My reason for going back to an IDI are a little different than most people. I...

    Truck died this morning.

    Any chance your fuel tank is 1/4 or less? If so, a possibility is that the pickups break off in these tanks and 1/4 tank can be the same as empty.

    Anyone fix a stuck oil regulator valve or am i stuck with pulling my oil cooler?

    Well it has a spring pushing against it, if your putting a pick in the part of the hole you can see and pulling back on it and the spring isn't moving it toward closed then it's stuck pretty bad. Keep in mind that you are prying on the internal piston, so if you burr it at all it will stick...

    He is talking about the regulator valve, and you can get to part of it with the oil filter removed.

    Anyone fix a stuck oil regulator valve or am i stuck with pulling my oil cooler?

    I had this same problem and was able to fix it through the oil filter base. Click on the link in my signature and take a look at the writeup I have on my page. Hope it helps.

    I'm starting to think the mechanic botched it up again.

    That pretty much nails it down that heat soak is expanding the hydraulic head in your IP enough so that is can't build pressure to inject when its hot. A good pump will cure that.

    Bad fuel leak, need help!!

    If the drive shaft seals thus weep hole is where it leaking from, then yes that can cause air to enter your system. What happens is that when the engine isn't running, fuel drips out and is replaced by air. There are other places for the pump to leak, bear in mind the IP is pressured...

    Bad fuel leak, need help!!

    If its coming from the bottom of the pump it may be from the weep hole. This hole is there to allow fuel to escape if the seals on the pump drive shaft start leaking. Get one of those little inspection mirrors and a flashlight and look on the very bottom toward the drive end of the pump.
