    Glow Plug Idea Question

    Old diesels just smoke on cold start because they do. I remember my mom's neighbor's work truck covering the entire neighborhood in diesel smoke when we had snow simply because it was cold. Mid 90's Dodge 3500 if you're wondering what it was.

    Anyone have experience with any good online factory service manual access?

    @franklin2 what's that sample diagram from? Attached is the glow plug schemetic from the 1991 Ford shop manual.

    I haven't got experience with the website but it does look a lot like the FSM but cleaner. I might throw a 20 at them just to see if it's worth it.

    ZF swap complete

    Out of curiosity how heavy is that clutch pedal? I'm leaning more towards keeping mine with the E4OD simply because most clutches are bit too heavy for me to be comfortable with.

    Auxiliary Fuse Box

    Mounting feet on the side and the box has slots for fuses and relays. About $20-25 from Amazon and I'm adding in the fuses and relays as I add things that go to them

    Auxiliary Fuse Box

    I've got an added on box on the passenger side just behind the battery. A friend of mine had a spare piece of steel to make the bracket and it gives me electrical space to wire in anything I wish to add, like better gauges or a radio that works.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Went and bought a trailer today. It didn't really like hills but what do we expect from our "highway legal tractors?"

    Oilburners 2019 Gatlinburg Rally

    Visitors are allowed at the campground right? I’m coming over as a day trip as it is literally only 2 hours from my house.

    BR3 is right on the weather. I was crazy enough to mow today so that I would have tomorrow free. I'll probably try to get there around 2ish and hang around for the day.

    Weather around here is unpredictable usually. Comes with being in mountains.

    2019 Rally Convoy

    What time are people planning on rolling in Saturday? Trying to figure out how best to plan my trip over. I'm only about 2 hours out and will gladly lend unskilled hands for set up if I get there while that's going on. Also, I should have my CB hooked up by then if I can figure out a good place...

    Oilburners 2019 Gatlinburg Rally

    Heh... I can read a calendar, really. Anyway I asked my boss about it and he went, "We aren't working it either. MY boss said it doesn't make sense to make you all come in when production isn't running so are you sure you want to use a vacation day for it?"

    I'll be able to drop in Friday, unless the boss says no. Most of my workplace will be off the 5th so I figure I'll ask. Looking forward to meeting everybody.

    Transmission issues

    Well I let the rig sit overnight with the batteries unhooked. It still shifts hard but not nearly as bad and at 2k. If I let off the throttle right before it shifts it's a nice smooth shift. One of the big rig truckers that makes daily deliveries to my work said it sounds like the torque...
