    1994 F250

    The guys been takin' his time getting a starter in it. Bout a week ago he finally got the starter out. Past weekend he bought a starter for it, turned out being the wrong one, somehow, so he's currently in the process of taking it back and getting a new one. Which means I might have the truck in...

    6.9 IDI

    1979 F250 6.9 Conversion Hello all, since my last post I have traded my '86 dually for a 1979 F250 351M 4x4 4 Speed. I did the trade with the intention of doing a 6.9 conversion into this truck. First off, I was wondering if there were any intensive modifications I'd need to make as far as the...

    Glowplugs

    Thats a better answer than I was expecting. With that in mind that i shouldnt have to replace them anytime soon, a manual GP switch should be coming up soon. Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk

    Glowplugs

    Hi all, when I got my truck this June, it had some trouble starting when it got a little cold out so I figured it was GP time. The PO said he had never changed them (he owned the truck for five years) so I figured they were either old or original. I bought some GP's and pulled the old ones, and...

    Looking for Fenders/ misc

    Unfortunately I've come to realize that, I found a whole rust free cab with a front clip and two passenger side fenders, but the guy isn't willing to sell one of them seperate. How much do the fenders weigh? never had one off and was curious what kind of crazy shipping I'd be getting into if I...

    Looking for Fenders/ misc

    I'm looking for a passenger side fender for a 1983-1986 Bullnose Ford, rustfree. A set would be cool too, I could do around 150 for a nice set without major rust. Also looking for the dash/ gauge cluster cover? Dont know what it would be called, has the wait to start, water in fuel all that...

    VRV adjustments

    Hi all, was looking at the VRV on my IP and if I look at it from the driver side of the truck, it's turned pretty hard counterclockwise, top of the vrv is closer to the front of truck. Would I need to follow all of the instructions on Towcats sticky if I were just to turn it back to be about...

When I'm driving, usually not til about 10 or so minutes in, depending on how long the truck was sitting beforehand, It will randomly give itself some extra gas and take off, If I...

    C6 Shift Points

    I'll try adjusting the vrv to get it better once my truck is running again but hopefully I'll have a ZF-5 in my truck sometime soon. What exactly is a gear vendor od, is it just like an auxillary trans?

    C6 Shift Points

    If I floor it it'll have later shifts but my friend checked the axle codes or whatever they were on the door and said it had 3.55 gears unless someone had switched them out for some reason over its lifetime
