    97 Ram A/C discharge

    I see. As a last resort option, run the charge line from your manifold gauge outside and just barely crack the valve. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    97 Ram A/C discharge

    Could you link the bottle you speak of? It's not the bottle the refrigerant comes in? And not the internal tank for the machine is it? Also are you saying use the vacuum pump to draw it out and pump it into said tank? Is this truck in a junkyard? Maybe on a trailer? Sent from my SM-N960U using...

    SD 7.3 into OBS w/ ZF5

    Okay, it's the adapter plate. I couldn't remember which piece made the difference. Are you sure it doesn't already have injectors done? You mentioned turbo and a adrenaline hpop, most people won't go to that hpop unless they are running larger injectors. What turbo is on it? Sent from my...

    SD 7.3 into OBS w/ ZF5

    You can swap the injectors from the old engine, then run the old pcm/idm. I can't recall exactly, but I believe the SD manual trans had a longer input shaft. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    97 Ram A/C discharge

    Have a old fridge/freezer compressor laying around? You could rig one of those to pump it into a canister. It's really a pain trying to save it, without a recovery machine. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Moog leaf spring bushing, '90 F350

    The tightening action of the bolt on the edges of the bushing is what holds it. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Cruise control dosent work

    Several common areas: cruise control cutout switch on the brake master, the buttons on the wheel, and iirc a bulb out can possibly cause it. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    IDI to 7.3 Conversion

    I see now, OP said ficm. For a 7.3 it's just the pcm and idm. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    IDI to 7.3 Conversion

    Well first off, you would need a pcm from a auto powerstroke. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Pressure washing

    I have always pressure washed engines. Rarely just a hose. I've used quite a few different cleaners. Currently my favorites are simple green and super clean. At work I use the fancy heated one. With that one I'll turn the pressure down while around electrical connectors. Sent from my SM-N960U...

    Just started my 7.3* build

    Being a 89, I'm sure it's changed hands several times. Imo, that's just a chance you have to take with these engines. Po's word means nothing. Only rear way to know is to have it checked. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    huge turbo lag

    Injectors receive 110v ac. If you look up "7.3 powerstroke breakout box," that might give you some ideas. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Brake woes

    Its It's interesting to see the update in information. Previously everyone called that a residual valve. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Hard start white smoke

    Completely remove the chip from the pcm and report back. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    I'm trying to remember if turning the interior lights on via twisting the switch turns on the cargo light or not. I believe opening the door does. Think of a diode as a check valve. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Then leave the internals alone. Don't go swapping everything around. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Don't necessarily "need" it. Do you have a separate switch for the cargo light? Iirc some did, some didn't. Likely just keeping the dome light from coming on if you turn on the cargo light. Or Visa versus. Test it and see. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    He made the lifters solid just for checking clearance. You can get shorter pushrods. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    huge turbo lag

    huge turbo lag

    If the ebpv is for sure tied open, you likely aren't firing on all cylinders, or a major boost leak. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
