    Hood Pull Cable?

It doesn't return to its position either as if the return spring is not working....if there is one. I checked the cable and it seems...

    Fuel Additive that Removes Water?

    Does anyone know if any of the diesel fuel additives actually mix with and remove some water? Just thought it might be a good idea for a while since I got my Ford running this past week and it has been setting with the tanks empty for a year of so. Seems to be running well but I am cautious.......

    Plate Behind Water Pump

    I pulled the water pump so I could pull the engine/trans. unit out of an '86 and after cleaning up behind it noted there is a sheet metal plate between the engine block and water pump. This plate (maybe around .100 or less thick) is not staying against the block as though it is sealed there...

    R&R 7.3 with 6.9, What do I Move Over From the 7.36.9???

    I need advice from the collective wisdom of this group. My bone stock 1992 7.3IDI with 190K threw #8 rod and I was lucky enough to find a low mileage (50K) 1985 6.9 to replace it. I know about the Lucky Mod. on the DMF and moving over the glow plug/controller system from the 7.3. I also...
