    Vacuum Filling Coolant (1993 7.3 IDI)....possible Concerns??

    Not sure how you plan on pulling a 25 psi vacuum when on earth, lol. But let us know how it goes… I’ve always had luck just filling it normally. Maybe I got trapped air but engine has been running for 20 years with no noticeable issues.

    Unable to reach ball joint zerk.

    90 degree fitting. I wonder if someone makes a gun that does a small 90 degree turn at the end too?

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    I honestly would be surprised if there were more than 1,000 IDIs left on the road.

    The full flow filter I replace at 3,000. The bypass filter every 10,000 along with the oil.

    Oil Filter for 1993 7.3 IDI Non-Turbo....Baldwin B7039?

    I run the amsoil dual bypass filter. Oil analysis comes back as excellent and can easily run 10,000 miles. Mounted the filter head on the frame rail. Super easy access to the filters.

    1990 F-250 HD 7.3 IDI Turbo Replaced Radiator and did not take pics nor label!…

    There may be a designated inlet and outlet on the radiator but I don't know that it matters much. You can look in front of your condenser and see if you see another cooler and then just trace the lines. From what I've seen they're in series with the main radiator. Should be pretty easy to see...

    Radiator recommendations for a 1994 E-350 7.3L IDI V8 Diesel

    Just an FYI, the F-350 radiators fit the E-350s for the same year/diesel. I use the aluminum champion for an F-350.

    Help with overheat/head gasket diagnosis

    This is 99% cavitation especially with it bored over and the spots you saw in the cylinder wall. My pictures in the article you can see the cylinder looks perfect except the water spraying through the wall, lol. Pressurize the cooling system and you’ll see it.

    Anyone running an additional bypass oil filter?

    I run the dual bypass Amsoil filter setup. It seems to work pretty well. I did some oil analysis at 4.7k miles on the oil. The comments on the oil analysis were... "Thanks for the note about the by-pass filter you had installed. You can see it's working well with your insolubles reading low...

    Another terrible loss..

    Does Mel still have the Moose Truck? He was so hardcore into Diesels and his truck it's hard to believe he isn't on here anymore. I'm wanting to rebuild my engine soon and was looking at having Moose diesel do the injection pump. Also, when I visited Travis in Indiania back in probably 2003...

    New age headlights

    No one made them for the van so had to build them myself, but installed the mini HID projectors in the clear headlight housing. Look real similar to that baja retrofit deal.

    Hydroboost Conversion

    As far as I know the original proportioning valve was in that spacer dealie at the master cylinder. I installed a slightly larger master cylinder that didn’t have that spacer. I installed a new proportioning valve on a custom bracket right next to the new master cylinder. The original bore...

    Hydroboost Conversion

    I just installed hydroboost on my 1992 E-350 along with converting the rear brakes to disc. I used a 1998 E-450 hydrobooster and built my own high pressure lines with a kit from Summit. It was a pain finding all the proper fittings but basically just converted everything to AN fittings as...
