    ISSPRO Pyrometer not at zero

    I hope you do call. Keep us posted. A pyrometer isn't much good if you can't trust it.

    ISSPRO Pyrometer not at zero

    You kind of lost me there. I think the answer to that in the case of these gauges is even when it is 6 degrees outside these gauges sit at about 100 degrees (both gauges the same). I have the same concern about the accuracy of the gauges that is why I called Hewitt. The picture I posted of the...

    ISSPRO Pyrometer not at zero

    I have Hewitt Pyrometers in two of my trucks which read around 100 degrees regardless of ambient temperature. I called tech support they said it was normal. Maybe yours is as well? Call their tech line and ask.

    glow plug drilling/extraction

    I'm thinking the weld first idea may not be the best. Drilling through heat tempered and deformed metal will get a little interesting. It is a very good option but once you start welding it may be your only option. Just my two cents worth.

    Metal valve stems or rubber? Pro's and Con's

    Quality varies on the valve stems. I always get mine from the parts store or a tire shop supply house. I run a shop and have never had a problem with the valve stems from O'Reilly. I buy them in bulk so I can't vouch for the small packages hanging on the shelf. Several years ago I heard of a...

    Metal valve stems or rubber? Pro's and Con's

    If you run the rubber valve stems get the stems designed for high pressure. There are two kinds. One kind is for passenger cars (all black). The other is made for pressure 80psi or above. (rubber with a visible brass stem) Both will be flexible.

    is this a good deal?

    The drive train should be worth that. $750.00 Will probably make you the proud owner. Sell/scrap what you don't want.

    Clutch adjustment help please!

    I have some pictures of the repair/mod I did on my trucks, but not handy to post. Do a youtube search a lot of videos. The bushing under the dash is mechanical. The plastic bushing wears out then the metal parts start wearing. The more wear under the dash the less pushrod movement under the truck

    Clutch adjustment help please!

    What about the pushrod where it mounts to the pedal assembly under the dash. it is a known wear area. The pushrod has a hole with a plastic bushing which mounts to a stud on the pedal. Very common problem area which can cause what you are describing.

    Sticking parking brake cable question

    I posted it once on someone's thread. There is a Ford service bulletin about rerouting the cables so they don't bind. I don't have access to it right now.

    Ip going out or something else

    Good to hear it's running well. What did you do to fix it?

    Ip going out or something else

    Sounds like you are pulling air pre-lift pump as mentioned earlier.

    Powerstroke Replacement

    Thinking about the 4X4 swap, what is the best clutch/flywheel kit to buy? The clutch in this most recent purchase is slipping otherwise I would drive it for a while

    Powerstroke Replacement

    Thanks.

    Powerstroke Replacement

    IDItis I guess that's what you could call buying another parts truck. This one is a Turbo with only 89K original miles (according to the original owner) It looks like I have everything I'll need to transform my driver into a 4X4 except time. I paid way to much but I wanted the turbo engine.

    Ip going out or something else

    Yes, it is possible. It sounds like you are sucking air somewhere before the lift pump. It could be anywhere back to the fuel tanks. The only way I can think you are getting air in the system at the fuel filter is to pull it in before the pump.
