Blue smoke blues
Doesn't bother me one bit that they peddle junk. I've had problems in the past from internet stuff, but I read the stuff you get at the parts house ain't much better, and it's not like you can buy this stuff from Ford or international anymore. Burned a piston out of a healthy 6.0 a few years ago...- Jay_d

Blue smoke blues
Injectors are from pensacola diesel, runs the same as the ones I pulled out. Ran atf through it with no success. Haven't tried timing it yet, but I guess it's the last stop before ip town- Jay_d

Blue smoke blues
Looking for some insight on my truck. It's a 93 with 101k miles, it's heavy (around 12k) and runs terrible. Hard to crank after it's sits overnight, smokes a LOT of white fuel smoke when it's cold and generally clears out 2 or 3 miles down the road, after it warms up it runs fair, but has a...- Jay_d

Can Someone Explain A/C Oil
I just poured flush into the lines with everthing unhooked and blew it out with air hose. Also did the evap core. Id put a new compressor, expansion valve and dryer if i was that deep in, probably a new low side psi switch too. The retrofit fittings are trash and will either leak ftom being...- Jay_d

New member, first idi. Too slow. Turbo time
They came from a small pump shop in Greenville sc.ive had them build several bosch pumps and a few for duetz. Its hard to justify as much for a turbo kit as the truck is worth. Even harder to justify 55k for a new one- Jay_d

4:11s with a 5 speed. No boost, no pyro. Cheapest options I've saw was a hypermax for $2500, just can't see it.- Jay_d

The injection pump is a reman standyne unit, with matching injectors. (Ordered by vin number). I don't think the engine is sick by any means, runs like a top and cranks fairly well. Had roughly 400 pounds of compression in each cylinder. I believe my biggest issue is hauling a 1500 pound bed...- Jay_d

I've been considering using an hx35 with a waste gate off a skidder I've had laying in the shop for years. Looks like a simple deal. Cut exhaust after the y, fab exhaust flange, buy el cheapo intercooler pipe set and a boost hat, plumb, use the engine fuel pump for oil return, fitting in the...- Jay_d

Been trolling here for 3 months. Decided it was time to make a post. Had a terrible accident with my ram service truck (see photos) fire destroyed everything. Found a decent 93 f350 back lot bargain to rebuild with. Only 95k. Everything went smoothly during the build, new paint, new injection...- Jay_d
