    Bullnoses and the time change?

    I was thinking, there's some people that gotta have stuff just "thus or so....." im not one of them, as you well know. But there are those of you who have bruises on your index finger tips because you couldn't stand the clock in your truck reading an hour fast. So, how are yall handling it...

    1987 Wrecker

    Well gents, after much deliberation I've decided to sell (ahem, dump)the tow truck. It's been real, it's been fun, but not real fun. Several months back it started to not want to crank up sometimes and finally just quit cranking up. It's spinning over really fast so I know it doesn't have much...

    DIY left handed ATV throttle

    So, this doesn't have to do with diesel trucks, gas trucks, trucks, cars, chainsaws, wood chucks, or Chuck Norris, but I really wanted to share these pictures. Not because I need an "ad-a-boy" or anything else, but for several reasons this could be very useful information on multiple levels...

    Manifold for a turbo

    This is a BAE turbo manifold off my dually from when I bought it. I had ideas of turboing it again one day, but I'm really satisfied with N/A. The turbo was toast when I got the truck so I redid the exhaust and put that piece of steel on it to cap it. One of the studs are broken and will have...

    Speedex Key Cutter

    A while back I scored a little Aerostar van for my boys to start driving (how much trouble can you get in in a ugly areostar, right?lol). But this particular van used to belong to a locksmith and it still had all the locksmith stuff in it, so I got this key cutter machine. My daughter is an eBay...

    Burning up fuel shut off solenoids.

    Yesterday I got off work and while my truck was warming up, it suddenly died! I told about it in the "so what did you do with your truck today" thread yesterday. Anyway I figured out the fuel shut off was fried, wedged a screw in there to hold it open and drove it home. I have several extra...

    Knight of the Phoenix

    A couple weeks ago I went and bought another Firebird for my wife (really it's for her, I can't fit in it. I don't know how Hasslehoff did it except he got paid $1500 a day). It's a 91 GTA and it will be her new KITT. Of course I didn't get a running car but it was supposed to be in better shape...

    This Merc ain't FROZEN!!!

    My 21yr old daughter has a really sweet 88 cougar that we bought her as a graduation present almost 4yrs ago now. The original owner took meticulous care of this machine and hopped it up just enough.......if you know what I mean. Not a drag car, but if you want to feel a old school foxy ford...

    Hey, it's another air intrusion thread! Just for fun though.

    So, I really don't have a air intrusion problem, but in reality we all do because we use mechanically injected diesel trucks for our daily drivers. I fix riding lawn mowers, mostly craftsman/Husqvarna/poulan mowers because in just a fan of those. Most of them use a gravity feed for fuel which...

    Eccentric issues.

    My dually was having some kind of air intrusion issue, I could see more air in my sight glass than usual and I could see the bubbles ever so slightly. It also appeared as though I was having a bleed back thing going on as well. So I swapped out my mechanical fuel pump with another one I had...

    My wife's bronco died!

    So, all cupholder comments aside, yesterday my wife calls me from the feed store saying the bronco won't crank up. Spins, but no start. My daughter rescued her and I had to tow the bronco to the house when I got home late last night. This is an 86 5.0 EFI. I've been messing with it all morning...

    Running without a fan or shroud?

    I was digging around on the forum for something the other day and ran across a post where I believe it was @Thewespaul said he runs without a fan and shroud. And apparently in Texas heat. I'm was curious if that's legit, or is he a "wild man"?

    Old granny gear swap..... maybe?

    Okay, so in the absence of @PossumTruck , I was getting oil at a local shop and they work on a bunch of old Fords and I asked the owner about a PTO knowing he didn't have anything. Well a kid there says he has a 70s granny gear tranny with a PTO. So my question is this: will the dinosaur 4 speed...

    Where's Possum Truck?!!

    So, I was googling trying to find a PTO for my T19 and I finally googled it juussssst right and a post on "Ford Truck Enthusiast" came up and a little over a year ago a guy going by the name of "possum truck" posted that he had a PTO off of a T19 for sale on their marketplace. Well, I says to...

    WTB T19 PTO! Help!

    Does anyone have a PTO for a T19? If so shoot me a PM. If by chance your converting to a ZF5 I'll trade you. I went from a ZF5 to a T19 and the PTO gear doesn't interchange. I'd be glad to buy what got if it's what I need. Thank you.

    Headlight switch weirdness!

    I rarely ever drive after dark, but the other day I had to meet a guy at 5pm to pick up some mowers. I was sitting in his driveway in my tow truck waiting for him to get home and I figured I'd turn my headlights off and just have my running lights on. Well when I turned the headlights off...

    WTB .030 over pistons for a 6.9!

    The thread title says it all. I need at least 2 good .030 over pistons for a 6.9 Navistar International IDI. I really don't want to bore this block to .040 if I don't have to. Help me Obi wan Kenobi, you're my only hope! If you got 8 you want to sell and you don't want to split them up, I'll...

    My options, and your opinions.

    Well, pulled the heads off my turbo 7.3 and I got 7 burned pistons. Cylinder walls look fine no gouges or scoring. So here's my deal, I got two 7.3s and a 6.9 and I need an engine on a budget, so I'll discribe my ideas and y'all please chime in with your opinion. Ultimately Im trying to get a...

I "man-steered" it to the house, long story short, the seal is gone and it won't hold...

    Jesus Freak's WMO IP thread

    So this is for the "Nay sayers" and the uninitiated curious folks like me. But I pulled apart the IP that "went bad" on my dually several months ago after haven drank WMO for 6 or 7 months. This was probably the original IP off the TIDI, so it wasn't WMO that killed it, it was age and WMO may...

    T19 and transfer case for sale

    I got this for my IDI bronco idea, but if and when I do that it'll be 2wd. My junkyard friend got this with a bunch of other stuff and knew that I was the only person who would want a 4wd tranny for a diesel so I don't have a actual history on it. The transfer case clicks in gear and spins...
