    How to set the timing on your 6.9 or 7.3 IDI and how to buy timing equipment.

    I also had thought about using the tack sensor as a trigger for timing the engine. Would need to make a short harness to connect to.

    Rebuild My Stock Turbo Send to be Rebuilt, or Get Aftermarket Turbo?

    If anyone is interested there is a guy here in Greeley, Co that has a new turbo he is selling for less than $500 I believe. If interested let me know. I don’t know him I saw it on Nextdoor and inquired about it.

    Timing 7.3

    I adjusted it some, not done yet. I have increased 2-3 mpg and the engine is much quieter.

    Timing 7.3

    Thanks. I was able to move it barely. Does the - before the timing mean anything or can I just ignore it.

    Timing 7.3

    I purchase a DTI 3300 and started working on my truck. i finally got the pickup to fit in the hole. Then I had to wait for it to cool some to connect the sensor to the fuel line. Got it to read. Timing was 2.1 at 2000 rpm. Tried loosening up the ip bolts. The one on the passenger side is so hard...

    Swap in 2011 axle

    There are two reasons I wanted to swap. I wanted the e locker and disk brakes. The e locker did come in until 2011 I belI’ve.

    Swap in 2011 axle

    Sounds like it would be better off rebuilding my limited slip and eventually going to rear disk brakes. Less trouble.

    Interesting no clutch disengagement

    Looks like sufficient movement. Are you sure your clutch disk is installed the correct way. I seem to recall some issues about no working if installed backwards.

    Swap in 2011 axle

    I did not know that. I thought all 8 bolt was the same. Will the older axle fit in the newer housing? Probably 37 spline vs 35 spline if my memory is intact.

    Swap in 2011 axle

    I am thinking about swapping in a rear axle from a 2011 or newer. I know the speedometer uses a ring in the diff but I was thinking about using one of the pickups at the axle end. My abs is unplugged to give me a cruise that doesn’t surge. Is this doable? Will the drive shaft bolt right up? Will...

    E fuel pump hose splicing

    I used the 9psi model. See chart https://documents.holley.com/holleyfuelsystems_chart1.pdf I bought from O’Reilly. Install 2 shut off valves in the system on each side of your filter. You will thank me when you have to clean or replace your filter. I did not use the regulator and have no issues...

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    It had a large amount of black particles on it. My kenworth ended up with black sludge and I bought a case of stuff to dissolve the asphatines and took about 5 filter changes for it to clear up. This is not near as bad.

    Stubborn waterpump fan nut

    Yes, reverse thread. I used a pipe wrench and a hammer and it popped it loose. Have someone squeeze the belts to hold the pump from moving.

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    We just returned from Sacramento to Colorado. About 50 miles from Salt Lake City my light came on. For the last 30 miles I had trouble getting above 60mph. As we pulled into the motel parking space my truck died and wouldn’t restart. In the morning I removed the screen filter I installed before...
