    timing questions?

    If I remember correctly the timing should be 8.5* BTDC at 2000 rpm when using a pulse adapter and timing light. You line up the timing mark on the dampner with the 0* mark on the timing plate with the timing light and then look at the degrees on the meter to see how advanced or retarded the...

    Converter randomly unlocks

    I had the same problem with my truck awhile back. It turned out to be a bad FIPL that was giving a intermitant signal only while the engine was running. It would pass the Key Off Engine Off code test, and the Key On Engine Running code test. But it produced a continuous memory code after letting...

    tools diesels are bigger

    I use a strap wrench to R&R the oil filters on my truck. The rubber strap wrenches work best, but I even had good luck with a wrench that had a woven cloth strap. They are fairley cheep at most hardware stores. Jim

    help needed with rotunda/motorcraft timing kit

    tractorman86, Is there a 3/4" boss on the front of your IP? If there is you can put a 3/4" open end wrench on it to turn and hold the IP in position while you tighten the driver side mounting nuts. Not all IPs have this front side boss, in which case you can either buy the proper tool for the...

    help needed with rotunda/motorcraft timing kit

    On my Alltest meter I either use the piezeo pulse sensor on the #1 injector line or I use the magnetic pickup sensor. I can't use both at the same time because the magnetic pickup uses the 20* offset to make up for where it is located on the block timing indicator, while with the pulse sensor I...

    Low fuel mileage, ULSD & Timing

    How would the higher viscosity of WMO, SVO, WVO, and biodiesel effect the timing? Usually flamable liquids that have a higher viscosity also have a higher flash point. The guys running vegi-conversion pre-heat the WVO/SVO not only so it will flow through the fuel system, but also so it will...

    Just a WAG on my part Like a lot us here and on FTE I have been following the Glowplug Supertuning thread and I could very well be completly wrong but it seems to me the whole point of using the glowplugs as thermalcouple sensors is to first get baseline readings at operating temp idle and then...

    busted for stealing waste cooking oil....

    I heard awhile back that the state of California passed a bill requiring a $1,000,000 bond for hazardous waste and permits to haul waste vegitable oil. This was pushed through by the rendering companies to stop us little guys from competing with them. Jim
