    Got a block heater? Use it - it makes a difference!

    .06 X 4.5 = .27 cents per hour so about 81 cents for 3 hours at that rate. Wind chill really not going to effect it other than getting down to your -5 temperature faster. Just saying

    headlights start flashing on there own!!

    Do the headlight upgrade mod and then replace the switch. These came without headlight relays so the full load is going through the switch, the upgrade mod adds relays to the circuit. If the plug on the pigtail looks over heated now would be the time to replace that also. Some make there own...

    ZDDP in stp

    Diesel rated motor oils never had the stuff taken out of it ,that STP is going to replace what is gone from gas engine oils. The motorcraft 15w-40 you bought is fine without that additve.

    94 dodge cummins serpt. belt broken but now it...

    If you have it routed properly it is probably the tensioner. When the belt is off is there play in the tensioner, if so replace it. Do all of the pulleys look to be aligned properly? Without seeing it I would say helll yeah its the tensioner, but its possibly the wrong belt. I was told to keep...

    '80's sm 4 cyl jap diesels in American rigs

    Heres an example that would do everything your asking it to: the Isuzu 4JB1T http://www.diesel-engine.cn/ISUZU/4JB1T.htm Not exactly easy to find in the great old USA. The 4BT 3.9l is the one that gets used because it is available and has the power to satisfy . Yes suspension upgrades may...

    Glad to hear its running like a raped ape. Did you see these videos from johnboggs with his N/A IDI? Man these are impressive IMO.Just used his cell phone to record it going 0-60 in 11-12 seconds and we can see the timer . I'd like you to give us some actual numbers to be impressed with but the...

    b2200 diesel transmission

    FRom what I have learned from the fellows over at this mazda diesel site.. here http://north76.proboards.com/index.cgi it seems like the bell housing is unique to the perkins diesels and you need a bell housing that came stock with that motor and then you can use rear portion of a first gen...

    Blue Grass Fuel System

    Seems like an over priced filter set-up to me , but its likely complete. I can't imagine spending a grand or more for a filter unit , all the parts I see in the pictures look like readily available stuff -a sprayer tank from harbor freight,couple of whole house water filter and a transfer pump...

    19 x .8 = 15.2 . So 80% of your 19 gallon tank is 15.2 gallons. Your right if your blending into an unheated tank you don't want to heat your oil to filter it , if done right cold filtering will remove the animal fats and Partially hydrogenated oil. If you filter at your lowest average...

    New to Diesel trucks, Questions.

    Does the 94 IDI have a turbo? If so I would lean in that direction out of the two listed, I would think its a better tow rig, that being said I have heard of the chevy's around that era getting better fuel mileage the the fords. Theres a million answers to your questions and most of them are...

    1984 Mazda Diesel??

    I think if you are going to go about this cheaply then you will need to upgrade the suspension to hold a heavier powerplant. 4jb1t 2.8l direct injection puts out 120 hp weighs 500 pounds but was never imported to the Us and so is expensive to get your hands on $2k+ . It s the power to weight to...
