About to start at master cyl block off then if...

    I bought mine 20 some years ago from Snap-On when I was doing mechanic work.

    Ignition lock actuator

    To the best of my knowledge they are the same for both. When I look it up for one it does not ask if tilt or not. and if you have replaced a tilt one changing this will be easy. Like I said call a parts store and check , you can get it NAPA , Car Quest , any of those places, Ford may even still...

    Ignition lock actuator

    Yes you still have one. You can get one from most parts stores, even from Amazon. This video might be of help to you on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yO103OzDDY

    Prefill torque converter?

    Don't know about being mandatory , but putting a quart or two in is a good ideal , kind of like putting oil in a oil filter before putting in on. Put some in and roll it around to get oil into things , I just would not put so much in that it starts running back out is all.

    Runaway starter

    I was not saying it was , just that it was bad and I cranked wayyyy to long on the starter causing it to stick on.

    Runaway starter

    I had it happen once on my PSD , my fault can't remember why, but I cranked it way to long getting it start, oh bad GP solenoid, Any how would shut off only by pulling battery cable off. Ended up putting a new starter on to solve. by the way bench testing does very little to prove good -no good...

    Why 65psi max for dually rims?

    My 93 dually had 235 on it when first bought it. Rears would almost rub together when load heavy, and made things tight on the front too. Went back to 215 on it.

    A few questions about this “IDIT”

    The IDI blocks where reported to be more prone to cavitation on left bank cylinders. something that was not as prone in the IDIT blocks. Also a IDIT is a much stronger block with the main webs .100 thicker , the headgaskets use a heavier fire ring on the gaskets also, not saying though that the...

    1994 7.3 IDIT rebuild

    That looks like part of the oil ring, don't think I have ever seen that happen. The pieces are probably part of the piston on the pin side. will be interesting to see what you find. Post pictures.

    Ignition switch loose inside?

    I have changed a number of them over the years by myself ,yes they are a pain but doable. Have seen them still start a truck when broken , but not every easy.

    Ignition switch loose inside?

    If the key cyl is in good shape , I wonder if the actuator for the switch is not broken . pretty common for those to break on older trucks. Other then that there is just really a lot to go wrong .

    Torch to Spindle

    It still keeps things from rusting together, I use it on lug bolts all the time. I am sure it is about as water resist as any grease. I use the gray Permatex stuff, have for years.

    Torch to Spindle

    It would not hurt to use some anti-seize stuff when putting thing back together. Stops things from rusting together.

    F700 7.3 swap

    Yours will have a 361 or 391 , 360s where used in pickup and to the bet of my knowledge 390 was only a car engine although a lot got put in pickups after the fact. Do you have just an standard bellhousing now or an SAE one to the transmission. I think one of the bigger things is if the input...
