    How much is enough fuel?

    I would say pull the downpipe down then reseal it. The elbow bolts are most likely corroded to the point they would be difficult to remove.

    How much is enough fuel?

    the only major difference between the factory turbo and the 093 is the down pipe. the factory one has a collapsed 2 1/2 or 2 3/4 pipe where the 093 has a completely round 3" downpipe.

    How much is enough fuel?

    That would be an ats 93 turbo kit. Its very similar to the factory turbo (factory is a modified ats 93 turbo) this uses a slip joint instead of a v band clamp. To seal this version you will need to use the copper rtv on the slip joint.

    How much is enough fuel?

    I believe the factory turbo has a v band clamp on the elbow on the back of the turbo that holds the downpipe on.

    How much is enough fuel?

    The downpipe will not affect boost numbers. Only things between the engine and turbo can (exhaust manifolds, crossover pipe, up pipe etc)

    How much is enough fuel?

    That looks like the downpipe to me. The up pipe is the one with the rectangular flange mounted to the turbo. To upload a video, you will want to upload to YouTube then link to it here.

    Can I replace my CDR valve with an oil catch can?

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/154141153130 Here is the style of provent 200 I'm using. The only difference is this uses a reuseable steel mesh filter while the genuine one uses a paper filter. If you decide you want the paper filter they sell them separately where you still save by going with the...

    7.3 idi turbo hard to start

    If you take your meter and put one lead on each large terminal on the solenoid, with the solenoid turned off, you should read 12v (or whatever system voltage is) with the solenoid turned on, it should read close to 0v. This is measuring the voltage drop across the solenoid during operation. The...

    First Diesel Ever, Could Really Use Some Advice

    To me, that seems like a normal amount of blowby.

    Can I replace my CDR valve with an oil catch can?

    On my truck I am planning on not using the cdr and only using a catch can. For types of catch cans, I recommend the provent 200 (or a knockoff which is what I'm using). The reason I like this style is its designed to drain all the captured oil back into the crankcase.

    Factory Tach malfunction at idle

    Your issue is likely the tach sensor. Either the sensor is bad or the face of it is dirty

    Just started my 7.3* build

    It has all the gaskets except the intake. I havent run them much yet but they looked well made when I was doing the install. It also came with a oil pan gasket but you do not want to use it. Use silicone instead or it will likely leak.

    Intercooler sizing

    I'd go with the biggest intercooler you can fit between your condenser/radiator and grille

    cold start, truck starts up runs rough then dies....

    The hardline between the fuel filter and ip uses a thick square rubber seal that is referred to as olives. I belive the line between the lift pump and filter also uses these seals

    Hyrdroboost or steering gear

    A whining noise from a power steering usually means 1 of 3 things, air in the oil, a restriction on the suction side of the pump or a worn out pump. I would check the hoses for any wet spots, kinks, or any other damage. Then check if the oil is foaming at all.

    The Resurrection

    My truck is a f350 and it seems to fit fine. Only complaint i have so far is there is 2 notches on the back of the headliner that don't seem to line up with anything and is visible above the perimeter cover.
