    Hydro boost question

    Write up does not say anything about the mod to the brake lever. I clicked on the one for the Bull Nose. (which I have) Though he does mention a 2 hour install. I have read that a new hole needs to be drilled though, maybe that is if one is pulled off a F-450 in the JY and installed on earlier...

    No fuel pressure after running dry

    With 12 gallons added, should be at least 1/2 tank of fuel. If you flipped between tanks, the FSV could be the culpert not showing anything on the gauge. I assume you have the mechanical Fuel Pump. Maybe try splicing in a electric pump to purge the system. Goat

    Interesting Oil Leak

    The Bolt you are concerned about, looks like a Stud. The Nut looks like it secures the tin bracket for the Cable going to the Starter. Under it looks like a second nut . It`s most likely threaded in as far as it will go. I would need to go look at my engine to refresh the gray matter. Been a...

    7.3 IDI turbo delete - fuel

    All these engines have Blow By. On the side of the IP is a triangle plate with 2 screws holding it on. Remove the top screw and just loosen the bottom one, it will swing down and hang on it. Makes it easier to get the plate screwed back on. There is a rubber seal under it, be care full of it...

    Throw out bearing noise?

    The two Bearings I had problems with, when removed, the thing was all loose and wobbly. Spun like no grease in it. Maybe they do not put much of any in them from the factory? Goat

    ODOMETER I need to repair the odometer in my '86 F350 - I think there's a nylon gear that fails on these...I've got the Cab and chassis 4x4 w/4.10 gea

    The Cable runs both. The Odometer is run by the gears. Looking at the face of the Spedometer, there is one plastic gear shaft, that goes to the right, and drives another gear shaft faces forward that turns the Odometer numbers. Also as the spedo cable it turning, it spins a magnet in a cup...

Iam going to knock it out of there....but is welded in pretty good. Picked up a 12" long 3/8" Drill Bit from Harbor freight. Drilled out all the holes inside the...

    Injectors Out And On Their Way To Moose Tomorrow

    Little tip installing the Injector Copper washers. Use a narrow slot or a Phillips Screw Driver. Put the washer on the shaft, hold it with your Finger, stick it down into the hole, and let it go. It will be lined up perfectly. Be sure to use Anti-Seiz on the Injector Threads, and the GP`s also...

    Update tapping noise

    Harbor Freight sells the mechanic stethescope. Could just be an Injector making the noise. Have you loosened up each Injector line when it is running to see if the noise goes away? If so then you will know it`s that Injector. Maybe it has been said up above? Amazing all the strange noises you...

    When I was at Justin`s shop, I mentioned I had some used Injectors if he wanted them. Told me at that time, he only buys new Injectors and then goes through them so they are all straight shooters. That was a year N half ago. Goat
