    Oilburners with 7.3 idi's.... Does this mean removing the IP and fuel hard lines, then removing the intake and water pump and everything else on the top and front of the engine. It seems like this is what I'm going to be up for? Any input? What does a shop charge for replacing a oil...

    Finally got back to fixin' my van, thought after doing the yard maintnence stuff and seeing Wes at CDD clean up the engine on proj. Rewbrooks, I'd use some degreaser and some elbow grease and clean up the engine while I have been doing all the other stuff BEFORE 1st re-start. Low and behold...

    Project Rewbrooks

    Hey Frankenwrench and other fellow OB's: Had to get back off the van for a bit. On to other projects temporarily, like riding mower oil/filter, blades, prep and de-winterizing and prep for weed wacker/string trimmer, hedge trimmer, etc. Fun in the spring rain, I meant sun, lol. Yep, spring has...

    Wes, I have the exact problem with my hood latch release pull lever in my van at the kick panel, just like you described. I thought up till now I'd have no other choice but to replace the entire hood release cable assembly. Now you've given me new hope. I'm so darn tired of using both hands...

    Wes, I need help

    Well Guys, Wes at CDD's glow plug OEM replacement harness for my 94 7.3IDI-NA didnt show up. NOT Wes' fault at all, but it is just that the USPS 1st class mail system is still notoriously known as SNAIL MAIL for a reason. Since the harness is not here, it gave me a pause to think about how I...
