    "One of a kind IDI Dually" Lincoln IA 4900 obo

    It has a 4wd shifter on the floor. Why badge it and put a shifter in without 4wd? And yes they made 4x4 dually back then. I knew a guy with an 89 eclb, 4wd, dually.

    6.5 gasket set / 20 set lot govliquidation

    Thank you for the footnotes. I knew that I saw gaskets that I couldn't use, but I wasn't sure exactly what the kit was for, just knew generalized 6.5. Same with the oil pan. Speaking of oil pan, is the one linked deeper than the automotive version?

    Ok, so I forgot all about pictures of the injectors. I managed to get a full set of injectors calibrated at 1950 psi. IIRC, stock pressure for 93 turbo 6.5 is 2187.5 psi, but since I still have a stock IP, I figure it would be best to lower the pop pressure to accommodate for IP wear. I didn't...

    6.5 Serp belt question

    Have you tried a new shorter belt yet? If so, what size? Is the routing different than with the vacuum pump?

    UPDATE!!!! I have decided to send my truck to a family member to fix it. I don't have any time, or a place inside to do it. I have ordered my parts and I believe I got them for a steal. I can post a price list if anyone wants to see it. I ordered a new crank with bearings, harmonic...

    6.5 Serp belt question

    Does the new belt have to be longer or shorter than the old belt?

    It's on the 6.2 in my sig. Although the HB was a factory piece, the rubber was still in good looking shape, no cracks, rips, or separation from metal. But it may have started coming apart in the miles leading up to this. BTW, it was still running, despite where it broke. When I pulled it home, I...

    And now for the big update.... My truck now has a two piece crankshaft!!! That's right, crankshaft is broken into two pieces!!

    As for the white deposits on injectors and GPs, I believe it has to do with burn time and injection timing. IE. slower burn. My engine has not had white on GPs until I started burning W85 without readjusting my timing.

    Ok, so I just thought of something..... If injectors coke, then the GPs could/would be covered in "coke", correct? When I pulled my #1 injector, I noticed the GP was white, like corrosion. Maybe GPs coke over and become less efficient??? I think I may have a few bad ones also, but of the ones...

    Here's my thinking behind this. If it's cleaning, then it's dropping things out of the fuel, right? If so, where is that stuff going? Sludge on the bottom of the tank? IDK, maybe im crazy. I'd prefer the particles staying suspended so it goes straight to, and gets stuck in the filter. I'd prefer...

    I would assume that by short distances, you mean not getting up to operating temp? If so, then no. I drive 21.7 miles to work everyday rolling hills with two good climbing hills. Also there is 3 miles of Interstate. I always let my truck warm up 5-10 minutes before I drive. Engine gets to...

    Wheel Hop Issue On Take Off?

    I agree that the clutch would be the culprit. Used to have a 90 F350 Dually. Only wheel hopped when trying to take off hard. Knew the clutch was getting bad. No more wheel hop after clutch replacement.

    I adjusted timing and advance lever yesterday and that seems to have fixed my hard starting issue. When it was rattling, it was loping hard and I believe the advance lever having slop was that cause of that. As for today, I pulled the #1 injector to check for coking. Oh boy... Pictures are...

    I was just reading through the "WiDE - Water in Diesel Emulsion" thread and thought of something. I know that my W85 seems thicker than D2. I'm using a stock 93 LP for filtering just like the one in my truck, W85 comes out slower than does D2 such as: it will pump D2 at about 28 secs per...

    I have not given a thought to coking. probably because I didn't think I had been running it long enough. It does white smoke at idle. Constantly. I have been running W85 and started with W80 a couple of days ago. I started with 3/4 tank of D2, mixing in 5 gals of WMO/FF mixture. Drove for two...

    Yes it is an IDI. Although both GMs and Fords have a Stanadyne DB2 IP, they have several different features, such as: Ford: CCW rotation, throttle hookup on passenger side, round mounting flange GM: CW rotation, throttle hookup on driver side, triangular mounting flange and of course...

    Well.... the slightly delayed cold start took a terrible turn for the worse. now both hot and cold start is delayed for about 5 secs. Still runs strong once started. Thought that I'd need more RUG, maybe to lower the flash point more?? Nope, i mixed up to 80/20 with no change. Still runs strong...

    Funny that you mention that. I have a spare hydroboost power steering pump and a 110v 2 speed motor from a 48" floor fan. I'll have to find both, but wouldn't take much to make a funtional 110v pump. Not sure about how fast to run the PS pump. Anyone know a good RPM range? The motor spins at...

    So far I've mixed up about 27 gallons. First 18 or so wasn't carefully measured, but everything worked good. A little delayed cold startup, but nothing bad. The last 9 gallons I've mixed was carefully measured to 85/15 and then mixed 2/3 with FF. Works perfect, easy starting, lots of power over...
