    Jesus Freak's WMO IP thread

    I'd like to add my two cents for the oil; engine oil is designed to keep dirt and contaminants in suspension, Ie floating. So I'm not sure if it (as before mentioned) depositioned contamination at the lowest point of the IP? Further, I'm not sure either if only soot is abrasive, I think that...

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    All right, and then there is no fuel coming into that gauge? (I had the idea that when fuel comes into that gauge, it's broke?)

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    I would like to know what tool/gauge I need to use for that, I have not such a tool in my collection as far as I know. and 5 Psi is a low pressure.

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    Hmmmm, I'm now about 4 hours into "polishing" my fuel, that's something Boaters do once and a while, to prevent, or get rid of algae contaminations. In fact nothing else than recirculating the content of your fuel tank through a magnet and fine filter with water separating capabilities. So I'm...

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    I might have seen a bit of light at the end of the tunnel, After my truck broke down at the side of the road, and I got her home with my tractor, I left her for a week, (busy with other things) and just when I tried to restart her, after a bit of hesitation she started again! a bit of shuddering...

    where can I find this part (new)?

    Well, Can I pull diesel through the engine mounted fuel pump? I thought to "polish" the fuel by adapting a fuel-line to where normally the fuel goes into the filter head, and return it into the tank maybe by the fuel retour line just before the firewall, and then pumping around the fuel until it...

    Fuel filter light comes up what could be the cause?

    I'm not really sure if we can find a better fuel source here, it's the government prescribing the oil companies to mix this stupid mix, if it had been still the old mix with sulphur, this wasn't happened, I'm sure! I think what have provoked the first algae, was the 4 year period that my...

    where can I find this part (new)?

    1st, There should not be any algae, I had everything cleaned and used fresh diesel with the Grotamar shock treatment anti algae. 2nd, with what should I measure that pressure? you have a image of that tool maybe? 3th, could that (the algae) provoke the irregular hunting of the engine while the...

    where can I find this part (new)?

    If you could give me your idea then? it ran without any problem years ago, (I'm in the process to get official registration for 18 years now, therefore I am not allowed it to run on official roads) It's redicilous, but that's French gouvernement. Then I was in need of a trans overhaul, due to a...

    where can I find this part (new)?

    I do wonder, If someone poked through this fitting, so it's not restrictive anymore, could that cause NO start? due to all the pressure in the fuel filter directly flowing away in the return circuit? I had the truck running to warm the engine up, I thought to install this fitting (which I did)...

    Filtering creative fuel for the casual user

    And a second thing I thought of, if you have plenty of such products, who are "slightly" polluted (dirty) is gonna cost you lots of filters, maybe a centrifuge is a better way to go?

    Filtering creative fuel for the casual user

    I see what you say here, did you know that the new "plastic" jerrycans in use with the US army also are HDPE can's? and in Europe a lot of vehicles and commercial truck diesel tanks are also from HDPE. could it maybe be possible that they made a mistake in that chart or so? I mean, why else...

    where can I find this part (new)?

    This part, on the inside is the rubber "duck's beak" , is on the side of the fuel filter's head, and the return fuel hose is connected to it. I'm not really sure in which direction it works, I know there's written something over it, I could not find that. Also I know they have two different...

    Who knows the size of the tread from the original fuel filter?

    Thank you, I had a look at that website, and could find that dimension only after a good search. are these WIX filters a good quality?

    Who knows the size of the tread from the original fuel filter?

    I'm still fighting with my fuel filter, it costs me 75$ plus shipping, import and sales tax to get one of those filters to me, not to speak of 2 months lead time. and I'm still trying to get my engine running after it got the dreaded diesel pest, or algea. I foresee to get my engine running in...

    well, it looks like not everybody has a logic mind? to me it looks like it's coming from the front of the engine?

    '89 F-350 odd sound from engine comes from what?

    Yep, I know, because with everything what is in sight I checked, there is nothing what I can see that touches something else.
