FS 1987 F250 CC LB 6.9, Banks Turbo, Gear Vendors OD (C6 Automatic)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQdtWCcxnvA There is a link to a walkaround of the truck. It starts up quickly and easily every time. The truck has just under 130k miles on it. It originally had a slide in camper in it and was not used much. I replaced the original factory injectors about 4k...- tbiagent69

I have an 87 F250 supercab that is missing the fuel tank sending unit. If someone is willing to sell it along with the tank straps I would really appreciate it. Shoot me a PM. Thanks!- tbiagent69

Stranded in SD with loose shifter. Help please
Good advice, I will try to just nurse it home. Crappy thing is I have to fuel up too so that will he interesting. Kind of crappy, with this uncertainty I have to cut Scout Camp a little short. Fiesta Island is the absolute best camp I have been to!- tbiagent69

Stranded in SD with loose shifter. Help please
Another question... how is it supposed to go together? Is it a slip or press fit, is it supposed to be welded? The arm is slipping on the shaft when the gear is changed. Sometimes it grabs and changes a gear, most of the time it does not- tbiagent69

Stranded in SD with loose shifter. Help please
We went to home depot and bought a set of vice grips. From other pictures on the intrawebs it looked like that could only be removed by disconnecting the sprag inside? If it can be done without all that work I will be stoked. I can barely reach in there with the exhaust and everything. Thanks!- tbiagent69

Stranded in SD with loose shifter. Help please
Hello, I am stuck in San Diego after driving in this morning. Over the last couple days I have had to shift almost to 2 to get it in drive (c6 trans). I did not think much of it, but this morning my friend was moving the truck to our camping area and the shifter would move freely but the trans...- tbiagent69

6.9 idi engine light
+1 Rot Box Previous owner removed the oil sensor to install a mechanical gauge. I guess the lead for the sensor is just hanging because the oil pressure fluctuates rapidly like it's bouncing off the engine or something while it's running. When it drops to 0 PSI (low) the check engine light...- tbiagent69

Steering Lock Lever Replacement
Found the part, Dorman part number 83280, steering lock lever found in the "help!" section I ended up cutting about 1/2 of the metal rod off so I could install it without disassembling the column any further than necessary. worked out well, and I disabled the annoying shift lockout function :)- tbiagent69

Steering Lock Lever Replacement
Another day, another problem :mad: So I drained my radiator the other day and upon finding it pretty full of crap, I decided to try to clean it out with a 1:5 mix of muriatic acid and letting it sit overnight. Astoundingly, it cleaned the exposed brass but didn't do a thing to the deposits...- tbiagent69

Transmission Troubles
"Also never remove the engine with the torque converter still attached to it either. Trying to pull the converter off the shaft is dangerous to the front pump." Yes. Wish I had known that the first time I pulled an engine. Ended up having to junk the truck because I broke the pump right off...- tbiagent69

Pre-turbo exhaust leaks
So I got it as sealed as I could just by tightening and loosening it. No longer spewing soot out to the engine bay when I drive it. When I drive on the freeway there is not constant smoke, but it puffs very light smoke out of the exhaust like every 1/2 second. Does this sound like a bad /...- tbiagent69
