    Arduino Gauges

    Any more updates on this? I am going to copy your work here on some level. Just ordered 3 uno's and 12, .96" displays. Plan on making a controller for my in bed tank and displaying it's level along with other data. Would likely get rid of my A-pillar 4 gauge cluster as well.

    Can an alternator electrically be destroyed by the engine?

    Good to see you Russ. What he said. I am running my original 93' Ford alternator with 280k miles on it. I did have to replace the internal regulator once about 10 years ago. But it is replaceable so no aftermarket parts store alternator required to fix it. I am sure shipping to Germany plus...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I have 3 of those. Originally it would have had a yellow funnel that goes around the neck of the spout. Might still be able to buy them new. Not sure. I got my last one maybe 3 years ago. But good score. They are nice, for a gas can.

    Big Ugly goes to rehab

    Update. I did something, beyond an oil change, to Big Ugly. Added a 100 gallon fuel tank. Figured I'd catalog this here.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Not today, but this past week. Finally, after sitting on it for 13 years, got my 100 gal transfer flow auxiliary fuel tank installed in the bed and proceeded to put 62 gallons @3.25 a gallon in it. I verified the on tank pump worked before installing it. With both original tanks I can now carry...

    Let’s make a deal - Sell me the website?

    Well where are we at on the original topic? Been away for a very long time now but not gone for good. Hope we can see renewed interest here. And if you can get together face to face with another IDI person you should do it. Always a good time.

    BOOB power tour

    3 days could work. That is a good suggestion. Or are we going too far west? If we try to even out the mileage say from New York city and San Francisco it puts us in either Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska or South Dakota. And I've go no issues with any of those places I just haven't the first clue...

    BOOB power tour

    This is good info. I just threw out the 500 number to try and get some ideas of range and time. What's a more realistic range per day?

    BOOB power tour

    Okay so here's a start. East Coasters meet between Indianapolis and Terra Haute In on July the 3rd. Stay wherever we end up staying till the morning of the 5th. On the 5th and 6th we reach Canon City Co. It's about 500 miles a day but also the flattest and straightest roads we're likely to...

    Hey ya'll take a look at this. Rally related.

    So just trying to raise awareness, and get people who may not know about it because they don't check the events and get togethers forum, about a potential Rally for 2022. Long way off I know but this one will take some planning. Biggest part right now is gauging interest to determine the...

    BOOB power tour

    Doing a little more looking around the Royal Gorge area Pikes Peak is an option. Also got rafting, dinosaur museum, Royal Gorge Railway, gold mine tours etc. Thinking the Royal Gorge/Canon City KOA would be a good campground. Liking this destination more and more. Plus Canon City is right...

    BOOB power tour

    Yeah I rode through Black Canyon on my bike back in 16'. Very beautiful and empty when I went through. Went over Monarch pass too that day. It was cold up there. (mid May) I don't see the campsite moving any further out than Royal Gorge. It's pretty doable road wise to get there. Pulling those...

    BOOB power tour

    I was thinking the big meet up spot could be the Royal Gorge campground. From there we could do day trips to wherever. Gunnison and Monarch crest come to mind.

    BOOB power tour

    I'm thinking near Indy would be about the ideal place for the east coast guys to meet up. It's a day drive for most of us I'd think. Solid 10 hours for me. Travel west from there. It seems I need to work this out as I'm responsible for the idea. Would appreciate any help figuring out spots once...

    So what you're saying then is we won't be welcome there.:party::party::party:

    BOOB power tour

    Yes something like that. Have an east coast gathering point and a west coast gathering point. Head out from there as a convoy. Haven't heard much from the western guys about their thoughts so hoping it's not a one sided affair. Biggest issue I'm seeing is where to meet at in the center. All...

    Found another one. 1994 f350 factory turbo.

    If you want to move the motor, minus the turbo kit, let me know. And Edit. I'll be in Central Penn (near state college) next month around the 15th through 23rd. What part are you located in?

    Bigger RV trans cooler: how big?

    Here is what I have been running for the last 13 years. Pulling a 14k trailer it's never gotten over 210 on the gauge. My transmission has never been the healthiest but without this cooler I'd have lost it years ago. I am not saying to buy from them specifically just found it in an easy to...

    BOOB power tour

    I'm still interested. And yes 2022 would be the first year I could do it. Hell I had to give up my trip this year due to too much work. So I've literally had zero time to think about, let alone discuss is with anyone. I've been gone 7 weeks since July 4th with at least 4 more by October 23rd...

    BILLET ALUMINUM INJECTOR CAP

    I had the same thought.

    BILLET ALUMINUM INJECTOR CAP

    Those are sweet. Looks like this all happened about the time I split up with my ex and was off the boards for a number of years. What are the chances they are still available? And @IDIoit , what rockers are those? Very nice indeed.

    Best AC parts for a 7.3 idi

    If you have the serp belt system compressor you can get the hoses and evaporator off a 94. The hoses have the port for a high pressure switch and will mount to the compressor just fine but require the newer evaporator as the connection point is different. Or you can add a high pressure switch...

    Have you considered using an oil catch can between the CDR and intake?
