    Injection Pump Leak at Gear Housing?

    Good evening, It seems like leaking diesel from somewhere around the injection pump. I've read a common issue is drying olives on the fuel line coming into the injection pump, but it doesn't seem to be leaking there or at any other fuel lines. It seems to be coming from the connection point...

    Glow Shift Gauge Pods/Meter Combo

    I'm looking at getting some gauges for my truck, and I read a ton yesterday on what people have. Obviously, everyone has their own personal opinion on gauges and pod set ups. Many people said they recommend the Glow Shift pod mounts, but no one, at least from what I read, mentioned the Glow...

    Hard Start - Glowplugs?

    Took this video of my truck starting yesterday. It seems to be getting progressively worse. Yesterday was a colder morning which I think aided in it being a harder start, and it was the first time I noticed white smoke after it starting. Could this be a glowplug issue? I got this truck recently...

    Block Drain Petcocks

    I know this probably isn't a huge deal, but since I've never used these before, I thought I'd ask. Do yall have a particular petcock that is better for the block drains? Also, what size? I'm flushing my radiator and everyone on the threads seem to recommend it. Is it recommended to come back...

    Immediate maintenance for a new '93

    Just bought a new '93 F-250 2wd. It runs good and is in decent shape. I was wondering what some of yall recommended on immediate maintenance since I've purchased it. My primary goal is to dump and replace all fluids on the truck (coolant, transmission, rear end, oil). It has new glow plugs and...
