    I jus noticed ur list of rides, I've been ridin my 76 shovel since 81. Coarse thanks to gettin wrecked a few times, she's nowhere near stock or original. Went to 84" dual plug after the last, even sprung for Chris Cruz graphics...

    Could you Sleeve down an old crusty 7.3 to run 6.9 pistons???

    Yea, that's why i've never been big on recommending extending the mfg recommended change intervals. Rarely does the analysis be kept up with it. I recall a while back, the brown truck fleet for their tractors, tried out a system where they had a big luberfiner 750 size/style canister behind the...

    Could you Sleeve down an old crusty 7.3 to run 6.9 pistons???

    As you no doubt know, if one is to run extended oil & filter change intervals, it is imperative to do oil analysis. Where as if one does regular change intervals, & jus changes the bypass filter every other change, engine life increases due to better filtering.

    Could you Sleeve down an old crusty 7.3 to run 6.9 pistons???

    I still maintain that the turbo idi's were one of the best powerplants to be put into a 1 ton. They just got a bad rap due to being introduced at the wrong time, so to say. And many didn't know about the detuning that was done at the time, so easily fixable. Even the weak link, the e4od can...

    Could you Sleeve down an old crusty 7.3 to run 6.9 pistons???

    A second remotely mounted spin on that filters much smaller microns. As opposed to a full-flow, it just takes a percentage of the flow out of the stream at a time to do it's filtering. As time goes on, it eventually gets all the oil & most importantly so much more of the carbon, soot &...

    Could you Sleeve down an old crusty 7.3 to run 6.9 pistons???

    If I was gonna go that far, i'd jus sleeve for a 7.3 turbo engine. Build it right & maintain it right w/ the sca'a & synthetic erl after breakin, one wouldn't have anything to worry about. That's what I was gonna do... Make it reliable, long lasting & strong. An oil bypass filter will keep...

    7.3 IDI wont start

    Those engines need to spin, trust your gut. & keep the charger hooked up while you're messin w/ it. Notice you didn't mention the glow plugs? Those are also needed for starting. Better check them if you haven't.

    Filtering creative fuel for the casual user

    With the ever increasing price of filters, sourcing a centrifuge is a fantastic idea. First step w/ any setup is a gravity settle for the h2o & heavy particles.

    IDI to Allison adapter valuable?

    I was gonna put one of those Allisons in my 94 when one of my e4od's went bad, But I didn't want to lose the overdrive... Woulda sucked on the highway.

    Oil overfill ok?

    7.3 powerstroke oil filter fits, longer equals more filter & oil capacity. Not a bad thing...

    Wiring harness and thinking about selling

    Turbo IDI's are great pullers IF you add a decent flowing exhaust & turn up the ip. Ford detuned them to sell the new at the time powerstrokes. Trailer brakes work wonders, the lift- not so much

    Grease gun recommendations?

    Alemite A500 made in USA, (used to be anyway). As others said, store the cartridges vertically. In florida heat I store the gun vertically too. Works every time. I got 3 or 4 hoses joined together for ease of use.
