    ATF in fuel filter

    At the sake of sounding a bit dense, and too detail oriented.. Is it better to have the engine 'warm-ish' when the ATF is passed through it to the injectors before the overnight soak? (ie, have the engine still warm when filling the fuel filter) The next day, when driving it hard.. I am a...

    Cetane Booster beneficial in a 7.3 idi?

    Out of curiosity.. What cetane number do most of you see posted on the fuel pump when you get fuel? I was traveling yesterday and topped off at a BP station that was rated at "40". Which I thought seemed lower than last time I got fuel, from another station, which I thought was 45.. but I...

    Wanting to add additional brake lights... Can I just tap the existing circuit?

    I want to add another set of brake lights to the truck, but I read changes in the resistance of the brake light circuit can affect torque converter lockup. Is the lockup issue only when a bulb is burned out or missing, or will additional bulbs also affect the circuit? As far as a solution...

    Injector Knock? or something else?

    Drove about 50 highway miles yesterday, then turned off to go through a town. When I started from a stoplight.. I heard a weird "ticking"/"knocking" noise that can best be described as sounding similar to a "bad gas knock" or a piece of metal hitting the radiator fan blades (which it was not)...

    E350 dually motor home wheels: are they the same width/offset as truck rims?

    Have you checked some of the aftermarket wheel manufacturer websites with the 'rim calculator' thingy ? It varies slightly by year.. At one point I was looking to spruce up my 94 E350 dually. The stock width was something like 6" with a zero offset. but later years like a 2010 were...

    Tech article question - e4od front pump

    Prior to 1995, Ford E4OD pump castings were designated as E9 or F1 and had 11 lobes on outer gear. Those castings suffered from low pump output and were superceded in 1995 with F5 and in 1998 with F8 castings, containing 10 lobes on outer gear. An E4OD E9 or F1 casting should be replaced with...
