    E40D Compatibility

    I put a 97 Transmission in my truck, all I had to do was swap in my 92 solenoid pack due to them changing in 95 with the introduction of the OBD 2 ports in the trucks. You can reuse a trans (shoot for latter models)but never a torque converter, always buy that new. You should put in a new gasket...

    PVC Fuel return rails

    So the school I go to I'm in a few of the different CAM classes that they offer. Since being in the classes I've doinked around with the idea of seeing of I could CNC machine some fuel return rails; much like the ones that R and D IDI have for sale. The biggest thing is that they would be made...

    Battery light on in cab, slow starter...

    I had the exact same symptoms and after 3 alternators it turned out to be the voltage regulator. So try the voltage regulator due to it being a cheaper and an alternator.

    Front "rumble" with hubs locked

    Mine does the same thing, I'm pretty sure it's the front driveshaft not being the best balanced thing in the world.

    Self Flushing Coolant Line

    When cutting your hose make sure to leave a lot of slack so its easy to work around. Don't be like this dummy trying to make it look a ll nice and ending up cutting it to short. I'm too cheap to go and buy another hose so I just live with it.

    Self Flushing Coolant Line

    That's probably a big reason my you over heated. I would say you probably want some form of detergent or de-greaser.

    Fuel filter heater terminal leaking

    I just went through the same thing these o-rings will solve that problem instantly. Worst part of it is re-bleeding everything once your done. Also change your fuel filter while your at it.

    OEM Part.

    I've heard that's a popular thing to do if your doing a lot of high way driving, what did you do with the spare tire cause I don't think that it could still fit under there with the larger tank.

    OEM Part.

    I just replaced my front shower head, improved the usage of the tank greatly! I wanted to replace the rear one but when my dad, grandpa, and I where putting back on the original truck bed (had a bale bed on it that my grandpa still wanted to keep) the hose got pinched so I would have to lift the...

    The best budget stater?

    So I have garbage spelling as you guys have pointed out. It turned out that the terminals on the stater were loose so I cleaned them up and haven't had a problem sense. Heck I think it's a Napa starter, don't remember what my grandpa put on it before I brought it from him.

    The best budget stater?

    My stater has a dead spot and is on the verge if dying. What would be a good affordable and reliable stater to replace mine with?

    Remove injectors without removing pump?

    You should never have to pull the pump just gently move the hard lines out of the way. Now you will have to deal with the return lines, make sure you have new o-rings once you get your injectors back unless you want the most unholy mess ever.

    Tank selector unit

    Update: I bought that same selector in the link( just off of amazon ) and it works great! At the same time I pulled my front tank(makes it easier to get to the valve) to replace my shower head that was floating around in the bottom of the tank. I think that some of the garbage of the front tank...

    Tank selector unit

    My issue is that the gauge works fine, the selector valve is stuck on the back tank even though the switch is on the front tank.

    Tank selector unit

    Alright thanks for all the responses. I will check my switch after school and if that's not it then I'll see if I can free up and test the selector valve.

    Tank selector unit

    Yesterday I filled up and flipped over to my front tank and took a road trip pulling a 14 foot enclosed trailer . When I got to my destination(hour drive) I noticed that the gauge had not moved! I flipped the tank gauge and my back tank showed a 2/3 tank. I'm guessing that its a stuck solenoid...

    Cold advance/high idle drop in power when switching to low idle

    When I noticed this on my truck I thought that there was a major problem, but I have determined that it is the timing advance solenoid and fast idle solenoid kicking off. Its just switching them off draws some power especially at low RPMs when the alternator is not making much power. Now the...

    Service box install

    Before my F-250 was my truck it was my Grandpa's farm truck and it had a 1,100 pound bale bed on it and would get absolutely thrashed on. Now it had rubber overrides on the rear suspension that saved the rear leafs, but that truck took over 2 tons of bales on the back just fine on a 3/4 ton...
