Hey guys, I had a thread going for this project called Sloowww Crank, but I figured since that thread is a little long in the tooth and the original subject line is a little out of date I would start a new one...
Truck is a 1994 F250 factory turbo, e4od, extended cab, and here she is being delivered to my house on a roll back since I bought her in a non starting state.
My neighbors thought i was crazy. That was March of '17. Still haven't driven it!! Can't wait to get rif=d of the wheel covers!!
As I mentioned in my other thread all my guesses when I went to look at it as to what it needed were WRONG and it really needed a NEW ENGINE. Hey you can't win em all. But I decided to stick with the project. I'm now a week or two away from having this installed:
Since the machine shop found the issue was spun main bearings, I found a another block (not a turbo block unfortunately, but couldn't find another of those) for them to use in doing a rebuild. The crank was turned down and installed with thicker bearings.
Other than that, the glow plugs (Delphi BBs) are in Russ's capable hands for some love.
Got the turbo outlet kit from Justin.
A turbo shop deemed the turbo serviceable, so I'm just putting that back on as is.
I took the (original style) radiator to have it flushed and checked at my local radiator shop and they called and said it was all eaten up inside, so I got a Performance all aluminum replacement. I looked at the Champion that many on here have said good things about but decided to go with what this shop carries so that I would have local representation when/if it falls apart.
Trans service done since it was out, and new input shaft seal installed.
Need to get: water pump, new zd9's, motor mounts, fluids/filters, etc.
One big thing I haven't done anything to is the injection pump. I don't have the cash to do a full rebuild right now, is there any way to flush some sea foam or ATF through it on the bench? I searched on here about IP cleaning and found mostly ideas for doing so with the pump installed... I was wondering if there was a way I could gravity feed some sea foam into the inlet and spin the pump by hand until it started coming out the outlets? Thoughts?
