T beam and leaf spring is the worst. Being it's also a 350 might be worst ride ever. Prob never will be very good. Didn't matter what I did to my 85 f250 4x4.
Turbos don't spin for free off otherwise wasted exhaust gases or temperatures. It causes back pressure which causes less exhaust to escape the cylinder and therefore less to enter. Unless of course boost pushes air in faster in the rpm...load etc where the turbo is in it's efficiency curve. If...
My old 85 Jetta n/a got about 40 like most. The turbo ones all got 32-35. Mostly a gearing thing vs where the turbo is efficient but same with these trucks. Gears...crusing rpm....turbo type....load...etc
The truck in my sig was a 460 therefore it has the softer two leaf pack up front. With the RSK I will be perfectly level and should be riding...well it rides good now...when it had the 460/C6 it reminded me of an LTD or Continental. Point is for a factory brick diesel a 460 pack and an RSK I...
I spent a year driving a DT466 with an Allison. Definitely not exciting or zippy like an Isuzu but got the job done. Might be ok for a decked studded high rpm high fuel monster.
Main thing is you don't want enough to migrate onto the armature. Conductive material will collect in the grease in between the contacts and cause a short.
Check the ice cube solenoid for power supply to tranny. If it goes bad tranny goes in limp mode plus it Powers other things like I think maybe the tach ometer.
With Ford you may have a BW transfer case or NP in the same year LOL. I found that there are always variations. In my conversion to zf5 I used part of a cross member from one truck and part of it from another. Two pieces from two different trucks that used existing holes but one piece kind of...
If you're concerned about it being too advanced. Just push in on the plunger on the IP, driver side, bottom rear, with a pry bar. Gently gently. If it is to advance you will hear the pinging go away so to speak but the diesel rattle will stay.
Yeah just take it apart and get creative. I think I made a sandwich with injector washers and what not to plug the hole after removing the electric fitting. Been working for years.
I have always been happy with my Fort Wayne clutch. I think it's a 12 or 12 and a half. Came with flywheel for $450. That was some years ago so who knows now. But it's the kind of place you call and talk to the guy and see what he can set you up with.
Progress! These GP contollers are pretty sensitive and complex really. A set of Beru's is just the best way to go. I've used them manually for years. But the truth is the controller just won't calculate properly without them.
Rods are what I think give the different feel. That one had slightly decked heads though and G codes popped right at 2100 so it was just fun to listen to it purrrr.
I will say my 93 Factory turbo truck I owned drove like a big rig in the way it torqued off the line. I always attributed it to the fact that it just had a stronger block and internals basically. Could have been anything but I have owned and driven a lot of these truck and to this day know where...
It's not the starter relay it's a relay that looks just like it that's for the glow plug controller. But off the top of my head I remember the ground connection can also cause a common problem.
