Had an old blanket folded up I put over it to keep the stickie off my pants and also so I wasn`t sitting in a hole. Later on I found a nice bench seat out of a F-150 at PNP for $48, and had it...

    IDI return line caps - aluminum 6061!

    16 of the push lock fittings by the E-bay listing would add $91.04 to the total cost. Plus what ever the tax rate in your State. Never had a problem with the Spring Clamps, they can be reused. Yeah with Push lock never use a Clamp. Goat

    Bad filter head check valve..

    That`s the line from the Filter to the first Injector on the passenger side. If so, there was a TSB( Technical Service Bulletin) from Ford to delete this line. I guess early on there was a problem with it bleeding off fuel from the filter. I deleted mine on the 86 quite a few years ago when I...

    Truck is down. Fuel problem. Not sure where to start.

    With the bed off, good time to install a 38 Gallon Rear Tank. Did the Bed lifter work good for you? One thing I noticed when lifting where the arms fit under the Bed Lip, it made it flex up. I have some pieces of wood I put under it. Like 2 x 3", butya know not that size after milled down. See...

    My 86 bounces around also, and it is Cable driven. Even with my new OEM Spedo 6 digit head, it bounces around. It has to be the old cable doing it. The cable runs off the T-19 in my case, and thinking I need a new one, most likely the original. And being 39 yrs old and 365K miles, cable probably...

    They are special. They are high pressure, and if you look into the end, the hole is very small. Each injection isn`t a lot of fuel, but high pressure. Something like 1900 PSI. So no you cannot use steel tubing and flair the ends. The ends have a ball that fits into the top of the Injector...
