    Oog does a waterpump.

    Bumpity. Found a plumbing wrench that I did some ultra-precise fine tuning of the width to 1.875 (+/- .500) with a grinder, file & cut-off wheels. Going to give it a shot tomorrow. I'll post pics of the tool if you guys want to see it (well, and if it works I guess).

    Oog does a waterpump.

    Nobody in my town (Eugene) carries Gates so I ordered it from Rockauto for $32ish. Don't really want to spend the $130 for the Lisle set of pneumatic fan wrenches for a one time deal so will be McGyvering something that's 1 7/8" and that I can use my air chisel on. Will hit pawn shops...

    Oog does a waterpump.

    Timely post. Thanks Oog! Mine appears to be on its way out with a pretty steady drip coming from where the weep hole should be. I'll check the Gates prices...$102 direct from Ford.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Not today exactly, but last weekend: Finally replaced (at 200k miles) the original IP & injectors that I picked up from that Uhaul sale from what? A couple of years ago? Picked up a return line kit from Oregon Fuel Injection in town as we did it kind of last minute. Didn't realize the...

    Care Package From Kano Labs

    I picked up a twofer deal from them a year or three ago. Still haven't used a full can. Little bit of heat & some Kroil. Works every time so far ;Sweet

    I've got my own 99 won't start problem now.

    Thanks for that tip ;Sweet I put it on with a zip tie, was admiring my handywork with a flashlight (actually making sure it was tight :D) and saw the nut on the bottom of the valley pan. I dug around in there earlier but couldn't find it. Must have knocked it loose in my initial digging. I...

    Hey all, Don't post much up here unless I'm working on Rose's truck...here I am again :D Went through donnie4720's post below and got some good info. I didn't want to pollute his thread with my own stuff so started a new thread. Truck: 99 F350, crew cab dually, 4x2. 255k on it...

    Engine compartment relay question

    I'll take a look tomorrow after work & see if I have power to the rear trailer plug with these removed. If that is them, there's something wonky going on...shouldn't be pulling 350 mils when there's nothing plugged in to the trailer plug. Thanks! ;Sweet

    Engine compartment relay question

    Hey all, Working on Rose's truck (99 F350 Powerstroke, crew cab dually) to sell it. I was up in this forum a few years ago trying to figure out a weird draw issue when parked that would kill her batteries after just a week or two of sitting. It was always pulling 350 mA. It's still doing...

    $240? Mine was $265 shipped -cuss :rotflmao The first one I had in the cart was under $200 I think. Ended up searching on Evilbay for the correct part # for my 93 with auto tranny & it was a fair bit more, but still about 1/2 the price of a rebuilt one in town from Oregon Fuel Injection...
