    1994 IDI Turbo Crew Cab 2WD Complete WMO Project

    Selling my project truck along with all my acquired/fabricated WMO stuff. The truck runs but has developed a head gasket leak and I'm not in the mood to fix it. Here is a link to my youtube channel with various videos of it: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvvsvpol36PJxVHw57aYHnQ The truck is...

    That's It! I'm done.

    Well, it's been an interesting 10 years or so with my project 94 F350 CC Dually conversion. But, I'm moving on. A head gasket leak was the last straw. In order to repair it, I would be removing lots of valuable parts that are in the way and by then, it would be easier/more profitable to part it...

    Filter Question not IDI Specific.

    I'm using a filtering setup with a 25micron hydraulic filter followed by a 15micron Golden rod then a 1micron house filter. I'm using a belt driven steering pump as the pressure source. I placed gauges on all sides and the house filter is starting to show some pressure of about 3psi on the...

    E4OD Issue Help Needed

    I've had this issue for a while now but it has gotten pretty severe. When my truck is slowing to a stop, my transmission (94 Turbo E4OD) seems to either not shift into a lower gear or let go of the converter lock up mechanism. It sometimes slows the engine to a stall. This also happens sometimes...

    Foaming? Why?

    Last night, I was cleaning a 5 gallon batch of my mix with the on-board centrifuge. Everything was going good till I had a minor (1-1.5gal) spill. The oil mix had started foaming faster than the air could come out of it and it foamed over the top of the container. It did not happen at all...

    My On-Board Centrifuge Setup

    I finally finished the hard parts of my install. All I've left now is to run a switch for the clutch via a relay and plumb my in-bed tank and that should be it. I ran an experimental setup with lines going to a container. Here is a video of the initial run...

    IP Wear

    My truck had been down since before Christmas with a bad pump. I'd tried fixing both bad pumps I had to no avail. The latest one failed in an odd manner in that it kept needing to raise the idle speed and in the end, it could hardly stay running after being very difficult to start. I made an...

    Progressive IP Problem, Idling, Stalling Etc.

    My engine began slowing down on idle a few weeks ago. I turned up the idle stop screw a couple of times but eventually it always slowed way down within a few days. It got to the point where the lever was stopped about an eight of an inch before it would even contact the cold idle solenoid rod...

    Tank Heater Installed!

    Here are some pictures of the tank heater I just put into my truck. I ran some insulated heater hose to the front tank where the heater is installed and went for a test drive. The hose itself gets plenty warm on the return side and the exchanger is hot to the touch on top of the tank...

    Tank Heater Length

    I'm going to work on making a tank heater this weekend for the front tank on my 94 F350. Before I drop the tank, I'd like to have the heater built so that it won't sit as long. Can someone here provide the diameter and length of the commercially available units? I've got some stainless stock...

    Gunk, Shavings and No Start Condition. Misadventures in WMO Burning.

    Well, this is one I have not found using the search function on this web site. Two days ago, my truck stalled as I was pulling into my driveway at about midnight. Convenient but still a pain. It had not broken down on me before. Lots of cranking and even some ether later, I decided the fuel...

    How To Injector Rebuild?

    As the title states, I want to rebuild my own injectors. What are the parts that get replaced? Where can I get them? What machining, if any is involved? Any web sites I should look at?

    Hard Start, What Now?

    I've owned this 94 for two months now and the whole time it's been hard to start. The usual suspects have been replaced. I put in new hose on the fuel return side, new o rings on the injectors and replaced the 5 bad glow plugs it had. Still, it's hard to start. The other thing is, before...

    Homebrew Centrifuge

    I want to install a bypass centrifuge system in my truck to clean the oil I intend to use for fuel. My pressure source will be a power steering pump run off the engine. I've seen this done by many others to use the pumps as lift pump replacements so this part is not innovative or difficult...

    Coolant Flow?

    Quick question here. The coolant line from the head to the heater core is tee'd to the bottom of the radiator on my 94. I've never seen this. Am I right to assume the flow is "from" the head rather than "to" the head? Why is the line tee'd in this manner? It seems that this would diminish flow...

    Wanted: In-Bed/Auxiliary/Transfer Tank

    I've been looking on the local craigslists for a couple of weeks and have not found what I'm looking for. Basically, I'm looking for a tank to put in the bed of my F350 in the range of $50 to $200. It will need to be at least 100 gallons but for the right deal, I'll consider 90 or so. I'm...

    Fist Post, First Oil Burn Whooohooo!

    All, I've lurked on this site for about a year now. Recently, I finally joined. Now that I acquired my 94 Turbo F350 Crew Dually, I thought I could belong. Also a first for me, I finally ran on oil this evening. After reading lots of posts by others on what to do and how to do it, I...
