Was too far advanced, retarded it a bit. last tank jumped up to 19. I write down the mileage of each fill up, City or Hwy driving, towing, driving 60 or 70 mph head...

    Gunson/Sealey not picked up by timing light

    You would have to buy that from the Snap-On truck guy? I have the Ferrit timing gizmo and the Nova #xxxx (don`t remember). Pezo thingy clamps on the Injector hard line once it is cleaned off to bare metal. I have trouble with it also reading correctly. It connects the same as the Gunson from...

    Wobbly Alternator Belt - Cause?

    When you first posted this Thread, I checked mine and she was flopping around some. Cinched her up a bit, and still there as it has been the past 10 years. I just keep the Hood shut and problem goes away...LOL Never lost the belt yet, and doesn`t seem to have any additional wear. Goat

    What is this in the injector

    When I got out of the Navy back in 66, I had a 64 International C-1000 1/2 ton Step Side PU. It had the smaller V8, the 266. I had put in Plugs and Points, took it to a local shop to have it timed. They could not get the timing set right, and told me it was so far off, I was going to do serious...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Take you about 15 min to install ;Poke What do you mean wrong end? Looks like a 1157 type Socket plug. Once I get them, I`ll check the size (length/Width) to see how I can modify them to work...not sure on that. We`ll see. Haven`t seen a 73 - 79 Dent side to see how big/small they are. Rock...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    The fender lights are plug and play, go right in. Yes, LED They will definately light up things. Driving down the freeway they throw light across the lane next to you. So far Iam the only kid (81) in the neighborhood with them. Not a lot of the Bull Nose trucks around here. I was looking for...

    Trailered home a 1989 F350 dump truck that looks great on the outside, but the 7.3 IDI is something else

    If you do decide to replace the Brakes, just remove the Hub, makes it so much easier to get the springs on, and a good time to replace the Hub seal. The Nut is a ratchet Nut, you will need a special socket to remove it. $20 at O`really`s...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    420Bullnose, when I was looking for a tractor several years ago, I saw one or 2 1910`s come up on my searching, a ton of gold plated orange Tractors. For some reason I wanted a JD. Found a 84 JD 950, Loader, JD Back Hoe with 3 Buckets, JD Auger, JD Scraper box and a almost new Rototiller off CL...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Needed to change the oil on the 86, been waiting for a day the wind wasn`t blowing. Needed to fill one of my 5 gal Propane tanks, so headed down to Walmart to swap the Tank and warm the oil. Noticed they have the tanks in this cage thing, then just swap tanks. The thought of getting a cart, load...

    Slave Cylinder Bleeding Trouble

    You can`t find the plastic strap if you cut it, no one sells them. I learned that early on, instead of cutting it, I read someone said leave it be and first time pushing in the Peddle it will break off. If you ever need to remove and replace the Slave, It will be a fight compressing the Rod...

    Nice looking Bull Nose. Is that a Ford or new Holland Tractor? Haven`t seen either one of those around this area. Most all are orange, Kabota or Kioti around here. Goat

    Clutch issues

    I think on some clutch disks it is printed as to which side goes where. Here is another Clutch thread, down a ways I posted how I do mine. Worked ok the last 2 times I replaced the MC & Slave. https://www.oilburners.net/threads/slave-cylinder-bleeding-trouble.93650/ Here is the clutch line I...

    Thinking of making a reusable oil filter from stainless steel sanitary pipe, fishing for your thoughts.

    That happens a lot, someone comes up with a new idea and it creates competition, they are offered a large buy out offer. Or if they refuse, are never seen again. Large corporations do not like competition. Goat

    Can’t fully push in clutch pedal all of a sudden

    I had that same thing happen to my 82 Datsun King Cab 5-spd. One morning jump in the PU to start it, and Clutch wouldn`t push in. Like pushing on a rock. Worked fine day before when driving it. Pulled Engine and Trans., separated them and ****** out the Clutch assy. One of the Diaphram spring...

    Using Glow Plugs to super tune the engine

    I hear ya. I tune mine the same way more or less. Was getting 19 - 20+, and once in a while 21 empty. Loaded/Car Trailer was like a Boat Anchor and really dropped off. With new IP & Injectors, dropped down to 17.4 - 18+, 16 on one tank empty. Set the Timing with my ferrit meter. Put 10K miles on...
