    Injectors & IP: Timing vs. Fuel Screw - Could use some Help

    Although you changed your downpipe, you may want to consider the turbo elbow outlet, which has an inner diameter of 2.3" ish. This chokes the exhaust and increases egt and basically restricts overall performance. Fresh, properly rebuilt injector pumps also make a world of difference. But as...

    Death wobble ?

    Check the I beam bracket too. My former truck had the same problem. Cracked badly in three different places. Shook like all hell over 50mph, I got lucky it didn't let loose

    Finished Turbo Install

    Providing you have opened up your turbo elbow outlet to 3" inside diameter(weld a 3.25" or 3" vband to a cut elbow) and use aftermarket obs powerstroke elbow or a fairly modded super duty stock down pipe. And 3.5" min back to the tail pipes. Then I would recommend a small vacuum tee into the...

    Fuel pressure regulator

    I ran a Holley blue marine pump on my old crew cab before I knew y'all ran reds. It freakin flew, I mean it was fast. Those are 15/16 psi unregulated if I'm not mistaken.

    New truck; milky oil, hard start.

    Could be the intake valley drain if it's clogged, rainwater could go into an old hardened turbo drain. Happened to mine, I had a mini breakdown. Then changed the oil and cleaned the drain, good to go

    Fuel Knock?

    Spray some wd40 into your turbo or intake manifold and you should hear it. Slobbering injectors putting fuel into the cylinders at the wrong time

    Weird surging on WMO

    It sounds more like your injection pump giving you the proper timing advance for a bit thus giving you that power that you never feel because it is so worn out that it never has any advance. my old truck did that a bit before i got a midwest rebuilt pump. It does feel strong but it could be...

    3.25" v-band turbo elbow outlet 093 setup

    I cut off the end of my turbo elbow when I did my downpipe to connect to the super duty 3.5" exhaust I had a 3.25" v-band laying around that I had originally intended for another project for a holset, so I used it. I used a 3" ID pipe to start the downpipe and tack welded the down pipe into...

    Fuel problem has everyone around here stumped.. Please Help!

    Sometimes in my experience when the injector pump has seen hell and has seen fine sediment (from waste veg oil, my first idi-t) and a clogged filter and been able to,run hot due to lack of fuel to cool it: my truck would cut off abruptly as off air suddenly entered the lines and would be a bitch...

    Need some minor help.

    The switches commonly burn up that control the parking and head lights. Pull yours, I bet you'll find the dimmer coil burnt through. Either way, it is something to check. The fuse also first, but that is obvious

    adjuseble engine t-stat w/by pass 150-180 degress

    The coolant would flow too quickly thought the radiator and not get cooled as the time it spent there was not long enough. It is a vicious cycle when you have no or a stuck open thermostat

    Turbo 240D?

    A turbo on a 240d would not be a big deal if youre only talking 4-5psi... As long as you arent trying to hotrod it and only trying to make use of the unburnt fuel that comes with a naturally aspirated diesel. My mom has the n/a 78 300d: its a dog

I was towing my racecar last Thursday night on a four hour drive about half way there and we pulled into a rest area and as I braked we smelled raw fuel real strong. The valley had filled up and...

    Go taller?

    I'd say you're looking frat boy enough as it is. It is your truck, you should do what makes you happy. Your mileage will get worse the higher up and bigger tire you go. How deep are the mud holes you frequent? Or is it to get over mall speed humps...
