    headlight questions

    No. The hid high/low only has one bulb. When turned to high beam the bulb is just moved to a different angle. You would probably ruin them if you tried.

    Psd glow plug service life

    Stick with Motorcraft plugs and be sure the plugs say Beru on them. Other brands have been known to swell and break off when you try to remove them.

    Yeah what he said and they last a long time - If it ain't broke don't fix it.

    Psd glow plug service life

    I had a bad one at 60,000 miles so I changed them all. I would imagine at 165,000 they are probably on there last leg.

    FOR ALL YOU GELLED UP PEOPLE

    It is ULSD Nothing real special. Run #1 and a winter front(grill cover). I think about the coldest I have had Crummy in is -65 and it ran fine. Coldest I have ran a Cat engine is -72 and it ran fine but sounded bad. Block heaters and oil pan heaters are a must before you fire them off though...

    FOR ALL YOU GELLED UP PEOPLE

    Yep straight #1. All that is available at most pumps is #1. In a few locations you can get -20 blended. The -20 is like 70% #1 and 30% #2. At times it wont come out of the pump. 50/50 would not come out of the pump all winter.

    Tire Chain Recommendations?

    Don't know that they list one but when I am chained up in the big truck I try and keep it under 50mph or the chains start melting into the tires. I have ran them at 60-70mph when getting a run at a hill but sustained high speeds will tear the heck out of the tires. I have never ran them down the...

    Tire Chain Recommendations?

    Thats what we run up here. For my plow truck I use a set of truck chains cut down to fit but you can get Trygg's made to fit anything from a ATV to heavy equipment. TRYGG tire chains are manufactured from ultimate alloyed steel which contain chrome, manganese, nickel and boron. They are...

    Dang, I don't know for once... Hard start

    Outside pins are the Glow Plugs. Get a piece of fuel tubing that will fit over the Glow Plug tight and use it to unscrew - remove and install them. Will take a deep socket to break them loose and tighten them but the socket will bind if you try and unscrew them all the way with it. If you...

    Powerstroke waste gate

    My 96' showed a code before I installed the dongle. Our 00' Excursion showed the code along with the SES light.

    Powerstroke waste gate

    If you do unplug it you might want to install a Exhaust Backpressure Sensor Code Eliminator. This will keep the check engine light off. Also available on ebay.

    Powerstroke waste gate

    OBS - Old Body Style EBV - Should be EBPV - Exhaust Back Pressure Valve Out of control valve is normally caused by a clogged sensor tube. There is a tube that runs from the passenger side exhaust manifold up to a sensor on the front of the engine. The tube gets plugged with soot and...

    How long do you leave your block heater plugged in?

    No they are just a element.

    Dang, I don't know for once... Hard start

    Allied Electronics also carries them. Been a few years since I purchased mine but if I recall Mouser Electronics is a little cheaper on the relay but once they both figured in shipping Allied was cheaper. This was a few years ago and shipping is usually high to Alaska so it could be different...

    GPR Do yourself a favor and replace it with a Stancor 586-902 relay rather than a stock type.

    what tractor/truck do ya'll prefer

    In my opinion a long hood with a day cab looks out of proportion. With a small sleeper a long hood looks good but a short hood looks better with no sleeper. Short hoods hold up better too. The front fenders have been replaced three times on the 379 extended hood I am currently driving and it...

    what tractor/truck do ya'll prefer

    Highway trucks up here already weigh from 23,000-25,000(or more) so another 2000 would put them over the top. Down in America where they weigh around 18k it would be a little easier to hide. A short truck up here is 280wb but most are in the 300-320wb range. Heavy frames. 400 gallon fuel...
