His truck still runs fine. I was cranking it over as he pored it in the intake. He never filled the filter.
I am interested in seeing if he has fuel in the oil now.
I knew that looked lie a bad idea. But he is my dad and he know best..... But he is also good for glow plugs and starting fluid together.

His front fuel gauge did not work so he was ruining the front tank down so he could pull the tank and fix the gauge...
My dad ran his truck out of fuel in my driveway. 1992 f250 na idi. He took the air cleaner assembly off and had me crank it over as he pored about 1/4-1/2 gallon of diesel fuel in the intake.

Its super easy to use. I like to heat my oil up to about 100 degrees then run the centrifuge for about 6 hours at about 90-100 psi. Taking it apart to clean it is a bit messy but...
