    finally warm out, help me get my truck running right

    I didnt notice any place that looked like it was leaking but i didnt crawl up and look at the back of the motor. I have noticed before that there was fuel leaking off the bottom of the contraption (dont know the technical name, feel free to help me out here) on the bottom of the fuel filter.

    finally warm out, help me get my truck running right

    Ok I have fought my starting issue all winter long waiting for it to warm up so I can fix it. I have wrote about it on here before but here it goes again.

    starting problems, air in fuel line?

    I understand totally, when I start the truck in the morning I will see about how long the wait to start light comes on and let you know. I do appreciate the help.

    starting problems, air in fuel line?

    Yes it starts hard when its warmer out, and just a couple months ago I had a couple glow plugs replaced so they were all working then. That was when I had the truck in the shop for the fuel problem, and when I got it back it was still starting hard like the running out of fuel thing.

    cold weather starting... what to expect???

    Im no expert on these trucks by far, but have owned mine for about 7 years now. I would say thats about right for my truck, i plug it in if i know its going to be really cold. It depends on you glow plug system. I have had only a couple glow plugs working at one point and it didnt want to...

When plugged in it fires up and idles rough for a second with some white smoke and then idles fine. Unlike...

    starting problems, air in fuel line?

    My truck was getting progressively worse. Starting with just running rough when it started, to starting and then dying and when trying to restart is seemed like the truck ran out of fuel. Then it got worse and started stumbling and dying when I was driving. I bought the kit that replaces the...

    Well in the first pic you can see the tree damage, but in the second pic the truck is washed. The challenger is a 70 with a 340 not numbers matching motor and plenty of body rot. I also have a 73 challenger, 74 dart sport with mildly built 360 and 4spd(you can ask bobus how that one drives)...

    receiver hitch

    I am planning on swapping my one ton running gear and suspension from my 90 F250 over to my 86 f250. My 90 is already too high for my trailer with my drop bumper and I dont have the one ton blocks under the rear. So my plan is to buy a receiver hitch for it. I would like a class 4 at least...
