    Some Injector Info

    I have some info on ford reman injectors. For some years now I have been buying what I call "orphan" injectors that have come up on ebay. Dates of reman are from 97 to 2000. The earlier ones with the rubber band around them were the best of the bunch. All have been ford reman and various codes...

    PSA

    15 hrs · Public service announcement. If you install one of these s542 kits, make sure the rubber has a hole in it to vent the trans. Otherwise it will build pressure and push oil out the front seal onto your clutch and ruin it. That's what the issue I had was not a defective Luk clutch. I...

    Sources for parts

    So this has been happening more and more lately. I quote a job of any type, then the person asks me where I get my stuff from and /or where should i look for parts. Presumably to do it themselves or because they are cheap. I am not compelled to give up my sources I have spent countless...

    In retrospect,,,,,,

    So ,too all, if you are installing a different engine, even a low mile one, and your coworker who is also an IDI guy says, "now would be a good time to reseal the oil cooler" . DO IT. I didnt and it is now leaking till it gets warm. AAARRRRGGGHHH. Also, Any interest in new SMF bolts made...

    Pondering Glow plug issues.

    So, with the cold snap we are having ,the dually is not liking to start. Brandon made me a fixed 10sec timer circuit for the relay a couple months ago because I had a bad controller, or so I thought. My controller was acting like burned out gp's and if I jumped the relay it fired right up...

    Time to crack the spare zf

    Well. Tomorrow I'm going to open up the zf with the cracked bell housing. I know the one in the 4x4 needs 2nd, 3rd and reverse at least. So doing the spare makes sense to speed up the clutch job . First time doing one of these. Can't be near as aggravating as the getrag I did a couple years ago.
