    Small coolant leak on driver side leaking down to slave cylinder (see photos) where is this coming from?

    I had a similar problem with my 87. I pulled the valve covers and found a snapped head bolt . that one thing is all it takes.

    Paint opinions

    In the 6.9 I did the heads and manifold Ford blue. The valve covers black. Need to look for pics now

    7.3 IDI Return Cap #2 & #8 won't seal

    I had this happen a few years back and I found that from somebody cranking the hell out of the nut the Metal area that goes into the injector was distorted. So when the next time you do the returns the end of the line is distorted and won't seal up properly. Then you get a leaky cap no matter...

    E4OD flexible dipstick tube opinions..

    where did you pick that up? Ever since I turbo'd my truck I've been guessing with my dipstick. Picked up an aftermarket one but it's not quite the right length.

    Cleaning out Fuel Tanks

    It's not the sending units or lift pump.If yer tank is all muddied up you will burn thru fuel filters to the point where you could buy a new tank. Believe me i know just get rid of the old tanks. Trust me

    1993 7.3 IDIT - Delete the turbo, replace injectors and use a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP?

    To the OP, if you choose to drop the turbo, pump, and injectors let me know. I turbo'd my '91 a few years back and need cores for the pump and injectors. I seem to have hit the wall when it comes to fuelling.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Nice score on the trans. The one project I really want to do is get rid of the e40d and go manual trans. but finding a donor with everything I need is just about impossible.

    1988 f350 6.8 idi

    The pickup is on the end of the hose on the sending unit.Looks like a shower head. I would change out the fuel filter. My 87 would run for a little bit then die cause the fuel filter would load up. If it's been sitting that should be one of the first things to change anyway.

    An A/C question

    I can't even find out what compressor I have . No tags or anything. I know it's factory, and that's about it. Tried with the vin on a few parts sites and nothing. Rockauto has a v belt setup and I thing that;s what I have to go with. And whatever tube that comes with it.

    An A/C question

    I take it I should replace the caps and valve cores also?

    An A/C question

    The kit doesn'y come with the evaporator. Thats in the housing near the heater core, correct? I could clean everything out I guess.

    An A/C question

    On rockauto the complete kit is for sale. Everything except hoses. Compressor, condenser, etc. It's being sold as a complete kit with seals so I guess everything I need is there. I don't know much about a/c systems. Never had working a/c.

    An A/C question

    Thanks for the reply. The price to replace came down so I'm going to pull the trigger on this. It was converted to r134a while back but it has ever held for me.
