    Bad water pump

    As some of you may know, I am doing a motor swap. It has been a struggle but I finally got it all bolted back together. The last thing I did was filli the antifreeze. In the process (about 3 gallons in )I heard a drip. Coolant is dripping out behind the harmonic balancer. I'm guessing the seal...

    Rear main seal & install tool where to buy? Part#?

    I am readying my jy motor for install and I wanted to do a rear man seal. I was going to get the seal from carquest because they carry victor reinz. I am not seeing a listing for a kit that comes with an install tool and sleave. Napa seems to have one under the speedy sleeve listing. Anyone have...

    Amp light

    My amp light came on yesterday. The factory guage is showing lower and lower so I'm guessing my alt is taking a crap. Is there a 3G alt that is plug and play on a 92 with v belts? If not I think I will get the 170 ambulance model if it will work? Batteries new last year

    Idi smoking after new injectors

    My truck was idling rough but running fine. After reading some articles on here I decided my injectors were probably shot. I got a set of bb code injectors and return kit from Mel. I put them in and the truck started right up but it blew bluish smoke for about 5 minutes at idle and smoked more...

    Coolant flush to do list

    I got my lab results from Blackstone and the motor seems to be in great shape. Next on the list is a coolant flush to guarantee my sca levels are where they should be and stop/avoid any cavitation issues. I am going to use the Napa fleet charge or guard or whatever they call it. I call it the...

    Copper nickel brake lines

    Laser jock had some questions about this in my hydroboost thread so I thought it may be worth it's own thread. As part of my hydroboost conversion I replaced all my rubber brake lines and most of my steel lines. I am in the buckle of the rust belt so steel lines last about 2 years here. The...

    Attempted compression test today how are you guys doing this?

    I attempted a compression test today. I pulled all the glow plugs and pulled the fuel solenoid wire. I have the harbor freight kit and I was only able to get 5 cylinders and that was a minor miracle. What compression guage are you guys using? I feel like if it had a straight hose instead of a...

    Ford service manual

    I see a lot of you guys refer to the ford service manual. I did a Google search and there seems to be many options. I'm assuming you guys are using a ford factory manual? I also saw a supplement for factory turbos. What manual do I get and where do you get them? Thanx in advance for your help.

    I have a renewed interest in my truck since after seeing its contemporary at the ford dealer with a $72k price tag, I have decided to keep it forever. I am going to test the compression and if it's good I'm going to upgrade to a moose pump and moose misters, add a Powerstroke intercooler and...

    Heater vent controls not working

    My heater vent selector vacuum switch isn't working. I replaced the control switch with a junkyard one and still no help. I had a broken vacuum line and fixed it. I tested my vacuum under the hood and it was within limits. I'm guessing this is a check every vacuum line and trace down the broken...

    What is the ideal tire size for a f350

    I am going to get 4 new tires for my truck. I put firestone transforce ats on last year and got lousy mileage on them, like under 20k. I'm going to try the Goodyear wranglers with Kevlar. I have been running the stock 235/85-16s but they look a bit like pizza cutters. My truck is a stock 92...

    Brake problems

    My 92 f-350 is still experiencing brake problems. The brake pedal won't "hold". If I put continuous pressure on it it will get pretty close to the floor. I bled the brakes and got nothing but fluid at all 4 corners and the abs valve? Under the drivers seat. I don't want to just throw parts at it...

    Ats turbo vent hose

    My 92 has an ats turbo installed. The vent hose? From the air box to the valve cover is a bit "melty", probably from years of exposure to diesel oil and fumes. Can I order a replacement? Can I make one from 1" hose? It seems to be the only place my motor leaks but it leaks enough to burn up a...
