    Bandaid on a bullet wound

    191,000 isn’t much on these trucks. It should have many miles left unless it was totally abused. You mentioned thinking turbo line is blocked or blowby is stopping it from draining. What are you seeing that makes you think that? What type of fuel mileage are you getting?

    Intermittent Weak Power

    Your restriction may be your facet pump, if blowing lines doesn’t do it, I’d check fuel pressure.

    Battery light

    Check your battery voltage at idle and at 2000 rpm. Sounds like your alternator is worn out. Turn on all electric accessories (High beam lights, A/C, fan on Max, radio, wipers if you want). Voltage should be 13.8 to 14.4.

    Truck is running great, but won’t drive

    sounds Like the transfer case is shifting. Being it has sat for so long, I would check the park pawl in the transmission. Detent rolls on a bearing, if there’s rust it would stick.

    This is the OTC tool. $161.00, you can try a crows foot wrench, it’s 5/8. If you have to, you can remove the upper lines in your way, tighten the bottom line, then reinstall the lines you had to remove. You’ve posted this in the powerstroke section, you should be in the IDI section, you will...

    Water leak in the cowl area repair

    I think you’ll be happy with the results. I fixed my wipers about a month ago and while I had the cowl off noticed the original sealer was in poor condition. I dug out all that was questionable And used the flex seal spray to get in all the nooks and crannies. I was happy with the results. If it...

    A/C Overpressure... or not??

    A little oil spraying out the valve looks like a gusher. Probably an ounce or less was lost.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Mine did that a couple weeks ago, luckily only the passenger side wouldn’t come back on. Mine was only the nylon bushing on the wiper transmission. If they were floppy before they broke, it’s probably the bushings.
