    E4OD Cooler question...

    The 6.0 trans cooler for the 5R110 is the biggest and most effective cooler I've ever seen for the e4od. The price and availability is usually second to none as well. It mounts in between the condenser and radiator using existing holes and brackets for the radiator so it takes up less space as...

    Oil Burner website

    Not really a correction but if your office is blocking this site, you could use a VPN to "tunnel out" of your office network and then be able to access it. It's usually easier to leave your home computer running, then from your office computer make a remote desktop connection to your home...

    I'm back in the IDI game!

    Nice find! Why do you think there's something wrong with the motor worse than a bad oil cooler? Do you have bigger plans or just resolving this issue seems like going through the whole motor might be a lot of work if it's just the cooler.

    NOS 7.3 turbo engein

    1. If Russ doesn't have the correct reducer hose and clamps for it I'm sure Wes has a few used ones laying around from the kits where he's eliminated the air box. 2. Yes, your interesting hybrid engine seems to have the ATS style oil feed on top of the turbo, which Russ's oil feed line will...

    Swapping pushrods with a different motor?

    I believe the rockers are the same btwn 6.9&7.3 so you could keep the "wear parts" together by putting that rocker from the 7.3 in the 6.9 too thereby keeping the match.

    ATS 088 t4 turbine housing

    I would check with Russ @typ4 he's the guy who usually has the answers for these types of questions.

    Grinding in reverse when letting clutch out - zf5

    Double check your motor mounts. If they've never been replaced it's likely that the rubber bond to the metal plate has failed and allowing more movement than normal.

    1988 F250 7.3 IDI misfire starting at 2,500 rpm

    In the tank is more of a periodic maintainence thing. If you have an issue, high concentration directly applied to the injection system by putting it in the filter and running it into the pump and injectors and letting it sit is the most effective and fastest way to make a correction if it's...

    Particulate filter on IDI?

    Diesel emission controls mainly revolve around reducing NOx content that's what the urea does. The black soot is unsightly but it's really just carbon and it settles to the ground, not really any harm or foul. If you want some research to look into, poke around in the early 2000s (up til 2007 or...

    Interchange?

    Not sure what the owner did, if anything, for brackets but here is a brick nose seat in a bull nose truck. Straight from that CL ad Scotty posted in the other thread a little bit ago.

    Interchange?

    In the 92-97 trucks the front/rear bench seats are the same but I'm pretty sure the front/rear brackets are different. Pretty sure this true for the 87'-'91' also. The floor pans in these two series are the same so it's all interchangeable. I was thinking somewhere it was mentioned that the...

    Is this mirror fixable?

    I don't disagree with the corrosion issue on metal but in this case one half is glass fiber reinforced ABS and the other half is glass. Shouldn't be any metal to worry about here but generally it is always best to know the reactionary properties of materials you put in close proximity to one...

    1988 F250 7.3 IDI misfire starting at 2,500 rpm

    Lot's of little easy things to try before throwing in the towel on pump, especially if it's sat a lot. First try a new fuel filter filled with ATF, start it and let it idle until the sound noticeably changes and shut it off and leave it over night. Then drive it as normal or a little heavier...

    Timing the injection pump

    Pulling the front plate might make the timing easier but there are provisions replacing the seal in the truck. If you take the front cover off you'll have to deal with the resealing of the whole front cover which can be a real pain especially where the cover meets the pan. Fixing one leak to...

    Who all can mod a ATS/Factory Ford turbo... cheaply?

    This discussion got sidetracked when we started discussing idi and psd turbo internals. The psd turbo spins opposite the idi.

    Doing install of Wes's turbo kit

    Are you working under the hood while cranking and bleeding the injectors with a bump switch on the starter solenoid? If not, that's a much easier way to see and hear what's going on. I wouldn't say that you're letting air in if you leave them all open but for sure it won't fire and or you won't...

    Who all can mod a ATS/Factory Ford turbo... cheaply?

    The compressor wheel on that 093 was pretty well worn out when I started that rebuild so I was looking for a similar idea. I called several rebuilders and suppliers and only found OEM and aftermarket stock wheels that fit the 093 backing plate and compressor housing. Everything else has to have...

    Who all can mod a ATS/Factory Ford turbo... cheaply?

    Yep, macrobb made a comment that he surmised that the bearings on a PS were possibly larger and since I happen to have some pieces and pictures laying around I figured I'd post it up for the interwebs to archive for all time.

    Who all can mod a ATS/Factory Ford turbo... cheaply?

    If that's directed at me, no no no. The s366 wheel is for my '97. I did the rebuild on an 093 that's going into my dad's '93. It's a big convoluted circle jerk involving a three engine two truck switch-a-roo that Wes is helping with but I'm not building hybrid turbos, I'll leave that to others...

    You received mine cam right? I can't remember when it was shipped but it might have been while you were gone.

    Who all can mod a ATS/Factory Ford turbo... cheaply?

    Thrust bearings are identical in critical dimensions but slightly different in design. I know the other one I have is a 360* upgrade but I've pulled the OE bearing on a PS before and it looks like the 093 one.

    Who all can mod a ATS/Factory Ford turbo... cheaply?

    @Macrobb It's hard to tell the differences from these pictures but the 093 turbine is the first one and the Powerstroke turbine is the second (it's actually KC turbo's s366 upgrade but close enough). The actual shafts are nearly if not totally identical but the turbine wheels are considerably...

    Los Angeles

    Are you trying to limit your search for trucks to the LA area since that's where the camper is? Is it basically the same price to ship the camper as a truck and camper so getting a truck too might help with transportation? There's a truck and Alaskan camper combo near Houston, Tx which is also...

    New fuel filler neck, need expert advice

    I have the instructions from transfer flow that detail how the install goes and is helpful if you're building your own. I also built my own and they work well. I took some pictures of what I built and what transfer flow supplied with their kits. The fill necks can be built pretty easily if you...
