8th Annual (2009) IDI Rally Information

[Agnem]

You don't necessarily have to get a kit. Your local Ford or IH dealer will have O-rings and caps, and you can just buy a few feet of fuel line the right size, and re-use your clamps. It's the O-rings more than anything that need refreshed, but old hose doesn't play well with others.

what size are those O-Rings that I am supposed to use?

Thanks

Ken

the dealer should have the o-rings for a more reasonable price

pulled from the parts bin
McMaster Carr Viton products
Part No. 9464K24 - Viton O-rings for 6.9/7.3 IDI Injectors

mcmaster.com has an awsome online search and if you enter the part number it will give you the exact specs of the o-rings if you want to try to find them yourself locally.

So can I do what Agnem suggest is put new lines on there but keep the caps and clamps just put new o-rings?

 

[Darrin Tosh]

What I would suggest is.., Start a new thread and leave this thread for Rally Information.

Hope that helps. When are you coming/leaving?
Heath

Heath, can finally answer that! We are leaving Wednesday after work (around 3:30 PM). Tentative plans are to stay Wednesday night, meet up with you all on Thursday, then head out Friday. It's only about a 5 hour drive, so it's not bad (last weekend I went almost 8 to Darrin's).

Visitation is still not decided, so I still have to be back for Sunday, but depending on what happens, I may head home Saturday. It won't be a long stay, but I'll get to meet everyone. I won't be in an IDI either, as I mentioned previously, but with Darrin's parts help, maybe next year. Those 4.10's sure do howl at 70 MPH! The gearvendors will help, and I'm looking into a 3.73 gear change. I had the 3.55's, didn't like them at all.

Anyway, since Darrin twisted my arm (don't think he even knew I was interested! ) on that gear vendors he has, I'll be coming to pick it up.

So, if you see my Burgandy Santa Fe roaming around, flag me down, I'm lost! I have an oilburners sticker on the rear window as well.

See you all soon,
Scott

Same here, I went to the midwest meeting, and have met several (Aric and Jim come to mind) in swapping parts and looking at trucks, etc.

Travis and I have tried to meet several times, but one of us has always had to cancel. I haven't heard anything from the goat boy, hope he still plans to attend.

Look forward to meeting everyone,

Scott
