    Floor heat, And Slow Fuel Fill...

    Hi guys. Couple questions for you. My heat works well, but if I switch to floor, it blows cold air. Is this a bending problem, or is there something else up with it? And my front fuel tank won't fill up, it acts like it's full, but my gauge says it's empty when I switch to the front...

    Where's the heat?

    Kind of simple, but check your coolant level while cold. Make sure it's full. I had a radiator leak, and the coolant was low, when I kept it topped off, it heated up faster, and you could always plug it in.

    Ford Re-manufactured sticker?

    I'd like to get a pic up, just too darn cold here, been in the teens and hit 0° the other day. I'll try and get one. I don't think it has a dealer name or date, but part of it is coming off too. Just thought it was odd. Did a google search for a pic but nothing popped up.

    Ford Re-manufactured sticker?

    I cleaned up my engine and found a blue sticker on the passenger valve cover that says Ford Quality Re-manufactured on it. I'm guessing that means the engine was rebuilt or replaced? Is there a way to find record of what was done through Ford? Anyone else see these? Rick

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Got the alt tested last night, everything passed with flying colors. Then they did a load test. With everything off I have a 14.7 ish amp draw! They suggested the starter solenoid was going bad. Does that sound about right?

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    I found some BW injectors brand new in town for 36$ each. Not remanned.... I think he said bw.... they are at advanced auto parts. Are these decent? 300$ for 8 isn't bad... Rick

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Thanks! Can I stick with the stock injectors for my setup? It only runs around 6 psi if I'm pulling a good hill, don't want crazy power, I'm ok with where it's at now. Is there a write up on pulling injectors? Just want to make sure I know what I'm getting into before I mess with a 2000...

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Is R&D a reputable company? I know getting rebuilt injectors isn't the best idea, but the cost is decent. I'd rather have the moose injectors and ip, just need more time to buy them. You think I could just slap a new injector ring, o-rings and cap on that 1 injector to buy some time...

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Haha ok it drains the other way. But is is leaking when pressurized, as seen by the wasted diesel. Sorry. It's late, brain isn't as quick as usual.

    Oh ok, I gotcha. So it's wasting my 4$/gallon liquid gold. Nice.

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    So basically that cylinder is running lean due to the extra air being sucked in?

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Will do. I'll have to get some cash saved up, they look original, but it can be hard to tell sometimes.

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Guessing and air intrusion is not good on a diesel.... should I do injectors while I'm at it? Thanks for the fast reply. Rick

    Surging problem and amp light questions...

    Oilbuner gurus! I need your help please. Went to leave work tonight, started the truck up, after gp's warmed up and the engine started surging pretty hard core . Tried to give it gas, fell flat on it's face with a little gas pedal. Shut it off, waited a second and started again, no surge...

    Odd steering problem...

    Gotcha. I'll hit the junk yard tomorrow before work. Do I need a year specific column? Or one in the same body style range? Thanks!
