Installed a DB Electric starter and cleaned up all of the connections. Improved the hard starting issues some. Next on the "to order" list is fuel components...
Been having to fight the truck to start. I was pretty sure I did not have an air issue but since fuel system is on my to do list I did not rule it out. Ordered a DB Electric starter last week in hopes that was part of the issue since it seemed slow to spin. Went to do a dump run Saturday morning...
Yep. You already know my short list. :)
Seriously considering getting Erica a truck. That will let me pull this one from weekend use and allow work to begin. Lot of moving parts at the moment. We also need to get together to hammer out what / how / how much help we can provide.
Should be...
I think I set a personal best on speed to reserve for a rally. I had mine in by 11 am on the 14th! (I may have been nudged by a certain female in the house to get this booked and done though!) She is pretty excited about seeing everyone again.
I have been holding off upgrading my housings until I tear it apart for paint. I use silverstar in other vehicles and am happy. My truck though is so bad my wife asked if I should get a LED light bar for the front!;Really
Some do not like Diesel RX, but this is what I am running (got ot from amazon also)

pillow on the hood latch. I had a gtg when I installed mine. Ezekiel (shortest guy in the group) was the one that laid across the motor. At 6'5" I walk a fine line from needing a stool to being able to reach everything.
Sounds real smooth. Love the whistle! Awesome job.
Seeing it Friday night and hearing it this morning just makes me realize how much work mine needs! Mine idles so bad you could sit a gallon of milk and a container of ice cream on the hood and have a milkshake 5 minutes later!
A pillar for pass side. The plastic for the seatbelt receivers (part that goes through the seat) is falling apart on mine so if they are in good shape... Actually if the belts work and retract good I would consider the whole unit. Not sure if a cc swaps with a rc.
Nothing too major. Just small...
I think I can safely say that Fordf250hdxlt is the biggest fan of the E4OD on this board.
I have never driven a zf5 IDI so I have no comparison to make. My dually was a E4OD. I forget the brand name for the modified solenoid I had in that truck. Shifts were on the firm side. Biggest problem I...
Like Scott eluded to. The cowl seal on these trucks rot and if you notice the air cleaner is directly below the cowl. If the gasket / grommet on the head of the cleaner lid bolt is cracked, rotted, missing water gets right into the intake (been there, done that this past winter. Drained almost 2...
Danny,
To answer your controller question a bit... I replaced mine with a Diesel RX controller from Amazon about 6 months ago. Works perfect, great price. Was my old one bad? Poor ground or bad relay? Who knows I never went that far with it however I do suspect the controller was shot and I did...
They never left Michigan! :dunno I knew they were missing when I bought the set up.
If I ever slow the flow of money going to better my children's lives...I would get a 093 again and honestly not sure I would change the valve covers. Granted past history does not indicate a failure free future...
