    Need a little wiring help

    I made a post about my 1986 f250 6.9 running like crap a while ango. Ended up being bad fuel pump. Well I decided to swap in a 1993 7.3 turbo because I want more power. I’ve done the 7.3 serpentine setup swap on other bullnose trucks, but not with factory Tach like my truck. I am gonna keep...

    King pin! I only say that because that’s what I put in my truck. Works well. Bolted right in.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    That’s super interesting! Didn’t know it was possible to fix low compression without rebuild :cool:

    6.9 IDI running like crap

    Yeah these days it’s tuff for everyone. Hope things change, but I’m not too optimistic :confused: I only have room for 10-12 depending. But I have neighbors, so I’m trying to clean things up. This was this summer, then there’s another 8 or so parking spots to the right I’ve got it looking 100x...

    Thank you Yes! The t19 ones are impossible to find. I had a truck I was doing a motor r&r on this summer, and the release fork was terribly worn. Couldn’t find any online. So I goobered some welds on the pads that contact the throw out bearing. I wasn’t able to use hard facing rod, so we will...

    Interesting! I definitely understand a guy wanting highway gears. Around my here on the PNW coast seems like guys are always looking for low gears for running big tires and wheeling.

    6.9 IDI running like crap

    Well I got good and interesting news! I’ve parked the truck as I don’t want to get stranded. Yeasterday I fired it up and drove it from the feild up to my driveway. I pulled the mechanical fuel pump to get another truck running. It ended up running great! Today I went ahead and swapped my...

    I’ll be interested in hearing what gears it has! That sounds super interesting. If it’s anything lower than 4.10s the desirability would go up!

    On the topic of 4x4 1tons, I went a picked this up for $1500 the other day. Kodiak Alaska truck, super rusty! Sat for 9 years. 1987 6.9, zf5, D60 front. Got it running. Gonna keep motor as a spare. Zf5 is going in my white truck I built this summer, as the current zf5 that is in it is terrible...

    6.9 IDI running like crap

    Thank y’all for the help! I’ll drop some coin on a better IP and injectors here next good pay day. I’ll check fuel pressure first. But I’m sure that’s the problem. In the meantime I’ll be driving my 91 with the 7.3. It’s a pile, and needs starter fluid even on hot starts. But it’s got loads of...

    Do you think I could just tap into the bleeder port for my fuel pressure gauge?

    6.9 IDI running like crap

    Yeah, I didn’t hear anything bad about the Pensacola Diesel till had already bought it. But I’m not in it much so I could buy another one. Just sucks throwing money at something without knowing the problem. I’ll put a Fuel pressure gauge on it and see what it reads.
