    Project Big Red

    quick question for you. I went through a whole bunch of your build, but there are a lot of pages to sort through and I couldn't find the answer. do you have a part number for your overhead console? I know it came from a f650 but when I search for one under that name I can never find one that...

    01 SD Crew Cab w/ 6 doors

    I think it is just temporary to hold the engine in position so he can build a proper cross member and motor mounts. It looks like the stud just sits on the frame from the picture. Almost looks like he could twist the studs to get the sides to go up and down to get her level. Sent from my...

    yep there is a vband on the bottom of the down pipe, and that is not where it is leaking that part is great. It looks like it is leaking where the crossover pipe comes in and at the top of the down pipe. I am also having an issue with the rubber exhaust hangers literally tearing all the way...

    38 gallon fuel tank conversion woes

    That is the tank I used and had all the same problems, but i had read of other people having those issues so i was expecting them. I cut new slots for the tabs and used fuel hose and brass fittings to extend the pick up. I also went to the hardware store and bought a brass rod to make a longer...

    @Kevo1288 sorry for the late reply but got busy and forgot all about you asking cost and such. At first i was only going to run one filter and I found a tech article on here called Yet another water seperator alternative. So I just used what he did, the base is water separator base part# is...

    So it really bums me out that i lost probably half of the pictures that i took durring the install of my tank, but here are the last ones i could find. I did a lot of reading on different setup for how to fix the fill issue on these tanks and basically ended up copying @IDIoit I took a step bit...

    Good tail light wiring diagram

    I had this happen. It actually was the light switch in the dash. It had partially melted. For some reason they carry the full load of the lights and it is common for them to go out. That is where I would start first. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It is a new one. My old ones were hacked together from multiple pieces and what looked like exhaust pipe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I don’t know off the top of my head but I will look at my receipts this evening and let you know. All things considered it was not that much more than the facet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    One last thing I forgot, the only remaining issue I have with the new setup is, I cannot get the fill neck hose to seal on the tank. Every time I fill up it drips out and leaves a puddle as I am filling. when the tank is really full it will sometimes slosh around and leak a little then too. I...

    Everything was great except the front tank stopped working a couple months after I got it back. If I switched to the front tank it would just die, wouldn't get any fuel. So i ran it only on the back tank since that still worked. Well fast forward to August of this year and the back tank started...

    So I figured i will just add on to this thread since it has most of the work done to the truck in it. I will be posting some old pictures and then an up date on my fuel woes and the fix for it. First some pictures of the truck right after i got it back from @IDIoit. It is a work truck and it...

    Am I on the right track?

    that is very similar to the link I posted. The problem is I am not that good at reading wiring diagrams. I know the basics, but this one has me confused as to what is actually going on in the selector valve. I also don't know what the M inside the circle means. :dunno from what i have read...

    Am I on the right track?

    Looking at the picture again I think it is supposed to be yellow/light blue not light brown as I wrote. Also I am not sure what to do with the Yellow/White wire that goes to the gauge on the dash.

    Am I on the right track?

    I will have a big update coming in the next couple days detailing what i did and some of the issues i ahve run into, but first i need some help finishing this up. I need to bypass the FSV wiring so that it will read the back tank. I have completely removed the FSV and front tank. I have been...

    Am I on the right track?

    Yeah normally i would agree with you, but I need the truck for work. When its not working I am not making money and customers are not happy their projects are not moving forward. SO this will be a gather all parts one could conceivably need and then drop the tank and do the repair type job...

    Am I on the right track?

    new update. Thanks to @The_Josh_Bear for the idea. Ran intake from a container of fuel, and the pump put out the same volume in less than half of the time. This leads me to believe there is a block somewhere down the line. I also for the first time saw a few flakes of what looked like rust...

    Am I on the right track?

    ok so some corrections. the pumps are only rated for 33 gph. There are a couple places on line that say 140, but they are less than reputable. Guess that is what i get for searching late at night on my phone. Looking at the manufacturers page they are rated for 33gph which is still more than...

    Am I on the right track?

    That is a good thought to pull the supply from a fresh bucket. I hadn't thought of that. I will do that today. The pump on there is brand new and the screen is perfectly clean. When I mounted it for the test I just ran wires directly to the battery. The permanent setup is mounted off of...

    Am I on the right track?

    ok so a little update. The issue seems to be somewhat heat related. When it first started happening we had temps over 100 for about a month. It dipped into the 90s for about a week and it got slightly better. Then last week it went back to over 100 and it got way worse. To the point where...

    Am I on the right track?

    Thanks for the reply. i was definitely going to take the cap off when i did it. and I was only going to use shorts bursts like you described. what do you mean by "line pressure"? like is 50 psi too much? should it be more like 10 psi? i know this is not a high pressure system and i don't...

    Am I on the right track?

    Thanks Heath. I do not have a pressure gauge but I will be getting one now. I haven’t had a ton of time to devote to this, but I did have a chance to inspect all the lines. I didn’t find any wet spots or areas that looked like an issue. I will be able to do more this weekend. Two questions...

    Which 33/38 gallon rear tank?

    Has anyone put the f26e in an obs? It says it fits the bricknose trucks. Are they really the different in the back? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
