70mm turbo and propane on 6.9

[88 Ford]

Cool I look forward to it. Maybe even show how erratic the pyrometer is too. Its kinda weird that it acts like that...

I might of missed it somewhere but do you have headstuds?

 

[88 Ford]

I'm pretty sure he does.

Ya, it's studded. Arp.

Here are a couple good videos with the propane actually working. It made 21psi max, at sea level it would be about 25psi.

I just want to say that I really like your truck. Nice job!

Thanks, I really appreciate that.

I took it on the freeway with propane for the first time today. I can hit 25psi in 3rd and 4th gears.

Hey, you have the same retarded pyro issue as I do, by the looks of it. When you use your blinkers or turn on your lights it will drop to zero then come back up...

My pyro in the old truck would turn off when I put it in 4x4, which was handy because I didnt really want to look at it anyway. Weird stuff.

on the pyro... run a ground to the block of the the engine, mine used to do all sorts of funky junk and I called autometer and one of their techs told me that any pyro should be grounded to the engine block. when grounded to the cab interference from other electrical circuits will wreak havoc on it

Your truck does look good. And wow. Its cool that your boost is hitting that well. Also, I bet redneckaggie is right. You might have interference. I never even thought of it being that. I was stuck on it being propane. Lol. But it is probably cus you are getting interference from the propane setup itself.

 

[redneckaggie]

mine was related to my radio, anytime the bass hit the pyro fluctuated

It is the propane setup that is making it do it. It must be when the solenoid clicks on. The radio, gauges, and propane all share a ground now.

Thanks a lot for the tip redneckaggie. I'll ground it to the block and see what happens.

Glad you could figure that out man. Seems like an easy fix.
