    W85 anyone still using this?

    So you are running 7.3 IDI with C6 and getting 15 mpg? Do you also have the huge box I have? Do ya think my box could cause that much loss in mpg?

    W85 anyone still using this?

    I have a 7.3 IDI, I now it is not a PS but seems there is no category here for IDI's. Anyhow I did, what I thought was a fair amount of research about burning used oil and RUG. I have been using this for a couple of months now. Trouble is I am having a really tuff time getting it started and I...

I have ran it very low on W85 and put in a half tank of diesel and no difference. As for the live gauge oil pressure I...

    I am trying to find this "Chuffing" artical you speak of, but very new here. As for the oil pressure it is running the same as it always has about half way on the OEM guage. The mileage is unknown but believed to be just over 200,000. Thanks.

    1990 noise like a rod knocking

    I am very new here and recently bought an old U-Haul van on a 1990 E350 chassis. 7.3 idi no turbo and C6 tranny. It has been a very good truck and I am running W85 in it. It has always been pretty noisy to me but recently it has gotten much louder, if it was a gas engine I would swear it had a...
