    no start issue can anyone help

    Yes , the o-ring on the inside tends to dry up and leak fuel, do you see a drip pattern on your valve covers at all? Another way to tell is when someone is cranking push the Schrader valve in at the same time and see what comes out , if you feel air then ; A. You know your lift pump works B...

    no start issue can anyone help

    @estructo419 Did you fill your filter with fuel before putting it on? If while cranking you get intermittent spurts of fuel then you still have air in the system , possibly a failing fuel/lift pump charge both batteries first to 100% then your going to have to crank in intervals of 20...

    No front brakes

    Is your vacuum booster new? What condition is your one way valve in? How much vacuum is your system making at idle? What your vac gauge read after pressing the pedal? When you say brake line you mean from hardline to caliper about 12” of line? Check your fitting for the front brakes at the MC...

    School me on the F-Superduty

    @robert alston Either get a smaller tank out of another vehicle that fits in the rear tank location Fab a tank that fits where the rear tank sat that accommodates the axle shift Or just run one tank (front tank) forget the rear tank Your suggestion of location would be a total nightmare

    School me on the F-Superduty

    They are good for parts swapping and upgrading a f350 or even a f250 10 lug axles Hydro boost brake system HD leaf springs Unless your hauling heavy 90% of the time the ride quality is poor Also I’m pretty sure the f super duty and f350 shares the same frame in 91

    idles fine dies going down the road

    @Dieseltrav , factory strainer or shower head will fix your issue and you’ll be able to use that last 1/4 of your tank. But in 10+ years you’ll have to replace it again because it deteriorated. So the alternative is to use fuel line and cut it to form a V in the line that will butt up again the...

    Ya cuz it’s cheap and light weight and readily available, not to mention easy to machine and form. inconel and titanium would also work just as well as aluminum. But no one is making them cuz it it’s too expensive.

    Need help 7.3 idi keeps running hot

    In my experience, aluminum aftermarket radiators always run hotter , gas or diesel, doesn’t matter how many cores you have it’s about airflow.

    idles fine dies going down the road

    @Dieseltrav not to contradict anything that has been said , but if your truck runs fine at idle but you have issue driving down the road and up hills wouldn’t your culprit be the pick up tube in the tank? Or your tank selector is bad and is semi-clogged ?, Assuming your gas gauge works are your...

    2wd tie rod confusion?

    @pickupman , size is dependent upon your GVWR for the front axle , I believe it’s 4200 and below is the smaller size 20mm and 4200< is 22mm size . I took my outer tie rod with me when I ordered them from Napa , and used calipers to measure as well. Just a heads up.... NOT Cheap parts especially...
