Well, I went ahead and bought the truck. I think I'm gonna run straight diesel at least for a few months while I get to know ol' girl. Maybe this summer I'll start to slowly blend in some oil. I really can't imagine why it wouldn't work since all it really is is a lift pump/fuel...
I have been using a submersible trash pump from Harbor Frieght down inside a 55gal drum to transfer WMO higher into my gravity feed barrel and also into my truck for over a year now with no problems. I love it! It pumps 50 gallons in a couple minutes and I think as long as the seals don't see...
title says it all. I'm looking at buying a 1985 6.9 that has a Titaniuum Fass Fuel System in it. I'll be more than a little interested in this truck if I can use my WMO setup with it. But I'm wondering if the thicker fuel will wreak havoc with the upgraded fuel system? Any thoughts?
Got the ignition switch replaced and it did solve the problem of no power with the key on. Thanks for the help everyone. Now I need to order the FSS and replace it without blowing my truck up:D
Thanks towcat, is this the piece you're talkin about:https://www.google.com/search?q=91+f250+ignition+slider+switch&num=20&client=safari&hl=en-us&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiD8JzA_YnKAhUB7WMKHd3HD2YQ_AUICCgC#imgrc=H_4oeJiWtm8YfM%3A
The PO had a new IP installed about 10K ago. New, not reman. So I'm really hoping to avoid a new pump if it's not necessary. I found some Replacement FSS for $60 from Accurate Diesel, does that sound about right?
I took your advice MTKirk. FSS doesn't click. Fun fact though... when I hook up the jumper from battery positive to FSS post, the cab "dings" like the key was left on, but the key isn't even in the truck. :dunno
Well I couldn't find any fried fusible links at the starter relay. But i found a sweet spot in the ignition that allows me to hold power to a few things. After about ten seconds of doing that, the FSS wire started smoking again and the top of the IP (the FSS I assume) was pretty hot to the...
Thanks guys, I'll check them tomorrow. Like I said, I'm no wiring expert, so correct me if I'm wrong. Fusible links just look like really fat sections of wire because of their insulation right? Will I automatically know if they're burned up or do I just cut em all out and start new? And are they...

Hi guys, its been awhile. And thanks in advance for your help.
The truck has been running great. then all of the sudden, about a mile after leaving the house... it just shuts off. Doesnt sputter, or chug, or puff smoke or anything like that. it just turned off like i turned the key off or...
I cut out the electric pump and installed a new mech pump. Got good pressure now. After I get it properly timed, if it still smokes, I think I'll get new injectors... Again:frustrate
