    FSS Wiring Refresher

    Thanks for the pic. I'm having trouble getting fuel to the IP - Whenever I've lost prime before, I bleed the air out of the fuel filter, crank the starter for about 15 seconds, let it cool, crank again for 15 seconds, let it cool, hit the glow plugs and I'm off and running. I've killed the...

    FSS Wiring Refresher

    I was a little concerned with the pump location when I was planning things out, but it's far enough below the fuel tank that there's a decent amount of gravity feed going on - Not to thrilled to admit that I probably dumped 3/4 gallon of diesel on myself before getting the line pinched off...

    FSS Wiring Refresher

    Added truck to sig. The electric pump is plumbed below the passenger side battery, maybe 8 inches above the frame - Roughly level with the vacuum pump. The stock lift pump has been removed as per...

    FSS Wiring Refresher

    I'll check out the olive tomorrow morning - Return caps are bone dry, I didn't think about the injectors where they come off the pump.. I'll add that to the check list, thanks. I know, right? Truck off, electric fuel pump off - Leaks, can't find it. Pump on, truck off - doesn't leak. Truck...

    FSS Wiring Refresher

    Hey everyone, Just need a refresher on the wiring for the FSS on the DB2 - There's three wires coming off the IP - One is yellow, closest to the cab. The other two are red and red with a green stripe, wired together, and closest to the radiator. The two red are for the FSS, and the yellow one...

    Best Coolant?

    Around 8 gallons - 6.5 or so if you don't pull the block plugs.

    Regretfully for sale... 86 F250 6.9l IDI w/ Banks Turbo in Pendleton, OR

    It definitely would have been sold right now. Almost emailed you before I looked up where, exactly, Pendleton, OR is. 'Bout a 1000 mile round trip for me (Nor Cal), driving to Bend was a stretch for me... I've got an '85 Lariat with the same paint job. Identical truck, actually, minus the Banks...

    ATS 093 Crossover Pipe Missing - Flanges?

    Waiting for him to get off work - I'll try to get him to send me some pics - He doesn't sound like one of the 5-megapixel-toting-smartphone crowd. Worst comes to worst I'll pull up the parts diagram and go over all the parts with him on the phone. My buddy works at a fabrication shop, I'm...

    ATS 093 Crossover Pipe Missing - Flanges?

    Hey all - I've got a line on an ATS turbo. Not sure if it's the 093, but it came off a 92 7.3 so I'm assuming that's what it is. There's a couple issues - The crossover pipe is missing, and its lacking gaskets, grommets, all he said was "the rubber parts". I think everything else is there, no...

    Craigslist- sometimes i wonder

    That was hilarious, man.. I was getting light headed. "This thing was forged from a single block of all American Tungsten Steel." Almost passed out. Also been considering picking up that IDI with the model in the pic. Need to get up enough WMO to compensate for the 700 mile trip...

    Educate me on diesel lubricity and additives

    http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/76-gm-trucks/64-maintenance-fluids/177728-lubricity-additive-study-results.html I use 2-stroke oil and either Stanadyne or Power Service every fill up, dump it in before the #2. Need more WMO.
