    Another Pop tester build

    Great job, looks professional. Someone posted on one they bought on line couple years back. It wasn`t washed out very well, still had some stuff from the machining. There are people on the side lines reading this. NEVER PLACE ANY BODY PART IN THE STREAM FROM THE INJECTOR SPRAY. It can and...

    Fuel Tank Breather Modification

    The beginning of this thread back in Feb 2012, the kid 6 Nebraska IDIs shows using that clear plastic hose. That stuff gets hard from the fuel, and will eventually have a leak problem. Then in post#10 "I went to a station that has been well known to use gas pumps to pump diesel (this causes the...

    1985 6.9 IDI major oil leak, probably rear main seal?

    I did the Rear main on my 86 probably year N half back. I have the T-19 and that thing weighs 150 LBS. If you drop the trans, just make sure you have a trans jack to safely remove it. I have this one, picked it up off CL for a killer price. Guy used it once, then put it on CL. Think I paid $85...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Being red, and the 2 Spot lights, was thinking maybe it was a Fire Truck in it`s younger life. Going to throw in a IDI? That would speed her up. Goat

    1985 6.9 IDI major oil leak, probably rear main seal?

    Welcome to the Forum. Lots of good correct info here. Lots of misinformation floating around out there. I have a copy of this manual , 88 - 93 Engine Service Manual. Has a lot of good detailed info. It is for the 7.3 Engine, but both engines are pretty close to the same. This is a paper manual...

    ZF5 Lubricant

    Interesting. I know the big rigs have Temp Gages for the Transmission and Differentials. Maybe a good idea to install a Trans Cooler and small Pump to circulate the oil? Or pipe it into the bottom of the Radiator like the Auto Trans are plumbed. Dang, now I need a Temp Gauge for the T-19 and...

    Powermaster starter appreciation thread.

    I have the Power master 9050 on my 86 6.9. Put it on there a good 7 years back or more. Never have had a problem with it. Always kicks the engine right over. The 9051 for the Power Stroke is the same Starter, but with a spacer ring. Remove the ring and it bolts right up. Here ya go...

    Engine Hoist for Tractor Loader Bucket

    It`s difficult enough to push around an Engine Hoist (Cherry Picker) with an engine hanging on it on Concrete or Asphalt. Sometimes we don`t have the luxury of a hard surface. Iam in the process of pulling an engine out of a 83 Mercedes 300D Turbo. I picked this thing up 3 years ago. Got hit in...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I had the smaller SD-22 engine in my 82 Datsun King Cab. It was only 60 HP. If the 33 was like my 22, it was a very dependable engine, that never gave me any problems. It just ran and ran and... just normal maintenance, and adjust the valves every 12K miles. Drove it 30 years and 480K miles, and...

    Broken fuel tank shower head fix tutorial

    You don`t "Cap" anything off. I think the word is "Clamp" not "Clap". You can replace the broken Shower head with a new one, or as he did here, replace the Shower head with a section of hose the same length. Clamp the hose to the suction tube or supply line. It`s 3/8" as I remember. The Shower...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    When I got out of the Navy in 66, I bought a 64 C-1000 1/2 ton with the 266 V8 3 on the tree and Step Side. C-1000 had the Torsion Bar front end. The factory stuffed in the Nisan SD-33 6 cylinder Diesel engine towards the end of the Scouts run. 80 I think was the last year of the Scout they...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I see an old Corn Binder on the other side. Don`t see those around any more. I have a 67 1 1/2 ton. 68 was last year of that body, before they went to the square body. Installing a 7.3 IHC in the Corn Binder would be a perfect set up. Would get better mileage than the 345 in it now. Those were...
