    Mechanic said "I dunno" "makes no sense"

    I don't know what he's doing these days but Corey @Dieselcrawler is a superb IDI mechanic. He's near Quakertown, maybe reach out to him?

    Trouble with Raylan: low oil pressure and massive blow by.

    If you guys haven't figured it out yet, I'll just say it again I'm totally crunched for time right now. What is the best way to check the CVDR? I have another, I assume good CDR but is there a fast " down and dirty " way to check it? Just pulled the hose going to the intake and check to see...

    Trouble with Raylan: low oil pressure and massive blow by.

    I'm driving Marketa to work and then hitting the salvage yards trying to find a bracket for the Jeep pulley. She's got a 10-hour day and it's about 50 miles away so I probably won't get a chance to look at the truck until Sunday. Thanks for your help guys!

    Trouble with Raylan: low oil pressure and massive blow by.

    Mobil Devlac 15-40 every 4k. Changed it just before leaving. New fuel and coolant filters. Howes with every fill up. I don't beat it at all.

    Trouble with Raylan: low oil pressure and massive blow by.

    Thanks for your input! No, not yet. Been busy getting the new little Tracker ready so she'll have a ride for work on the weekend. I wish people would use anti-seize on o2 sensors!

    Help! Minimum equipment needed? LPHV or old school?

    Sprayit 3300 arrived today. Hopefully, I can get a handle on the other automotive drama going on in my life so I'll have some time to start using it.

    Trouble with Raylan: low oil pressure and massive blow by.

    I Did, no leaks. I was thinking (hoping) that it could be CDR related, but with the low oil pressure, I'm assuming that it's worse. I'm under the bus with daily driver stuff! Two days before I was planning to leave to go and pick up the Tracker, that evening the water pump in the Jeep quit. So...

    Trouble with Raylan: low oil pressure and massive blow by.

    Hi Gang! Our 170,xxx mi. '94 4×4 e4od idit F250, Raylan, recently started drinking more oil. I first noticed it on a 1300 mi. round to Virginia Beach to pick up a 96 geo tracker for a VW IDI diesel swap. These motors are loose and tend to use some oil, so I wasn't too concerned, but the oil...

    Odd E4OD issue towing

    Codes 65 and 74 VSS and BOO respectively. BOO is only because I didn't do the full test. I'm reasonably certain that the speed sensor is fine... Would you happen to have a PSOM and/or the dash module?

    Best AC parts for a 7.3 idi

    To me at least, it seems that these days finding new and quality parts is increasingly difficult. So much is manufactured in China and the quality is hit-or-miss at best...

    Sounds like it's coming along nicely! I'd love to see some pictures of the seats and the camera install when you get a chance.

    Odd E4OD issue towing

    Hi Gents! Thank you Chris, and the rest of you guys are great too! I had some unrelated issues, I had to swap the tow bar and rent a U-Haul tow dolly, then I ran into some construction and such, so I didn't get in until around 7:30 a.m. yesterday. I took a shower, hung around the house and then...

    Help! Minimum equipment needed? LPHV or old school?

    I'm a pretty fair hand at spraying, everything from my old partner's high end old school pro set up, my Badger airbrush or a rattle can. I'm sure that with some practice, I'd do fine with the variety of new systems. I've started researching LPLV and it seems to look promising on many fronts.

    Help! Minimum equipment needed? LPHV or old school?

    Hi Gang! I'm considering getting back into doing my own paint and body work. 20 + years ago, I owned a shop with a buddy, we did all types of restorations and engine building. He was a bit of a genius, and was fantastic with a spray gun! It's been a long time, but with Fred's guidance, I did my...

    Bigger IP/Injector help

    You might consider disconnecting and plugging the wastegate vacuum sensor line. That's what I have done on both of my trucks, although I do have head studs on Raylan, I did not on Diego. With the wastegate unplugged both put out about 12 to 14 PSI. I sold Diego to @chillman88 hey Chris! Do you...
