    Oil Cooler Rebuild

    Hey guys Been reading up on oil cooler rebuilds - mine recently developed a leak (leaking oil to the ground on the rear end cap - suspected failed o ring). With my tools and space I am not prepared to pull the engine. I found the diesel hub had a decent write up on removal and rebuild by...

    ZF5 Lubricant

    Hey guys Recently got a rebuilt ZF5 installed with a new south bend clutch. Noticed some new noise in the low RPMs 1000-1200, 2&3rd gear(literally only 20 miles on it so far).

    Hooking up the waste gate to a vacuum source

    Hey All So today was my first day driving my truck with a turbo kit installed. 92 F250, CDD stage 2 kit, R&D factory NA pump turned up 4 flats, R&D injectors.

    Timing related to cold starts

    Hey all Looking for some input from the experience on this forum. Could the timing affect cold starting? I presume that it could and I would guess advancing the timing would make it easier to start, hence the cold idle advance solenoid. Can anyone confirm this? Has any one seen any difference in...

    Valley pan removal

    I didn’t see a thread on this, but hoping to draw from the knowledge on this forum. I bough my first turbo kit and I’m getting ready to install it. I purchased a new valley pan / gasket with the kit and I was wondering - does the IP need to be removed to replace the valley pan or can you get...
