    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Exactly. That's the only real problem I had with him.

    Should I pull the trigger or wait until I have my engine torn down?

    Dump a quart in the crankcase and leave it. You can treat it heavier if they tell you but you don't need to flush the kreen out if you just substitute one quart. The old bottle before the rebrand said to leave it in the oil. Pretty sure that's just them covering their backside in this lawsuit...

    Should I pull the trigger or wait until I have my engine torn down?

    Unless you have reason to suspect serious damage internally run a quart of Kano Kreen through the oil (Amazon has it). It made a huge difference in my oil consumption and is at least worth a shot unless you WANT to pull the motor apart. That said I would wait to order rings until you see the...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Reminds me of another member we had on here briefly that was saying he was on the engine r&d team and there was no point to studs as they didn't do anything. Remember him?

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    In all honesty they probably figured if that candle isn't enough to see to fix it you'd be calling a tow truck anyway LOL

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    That was the big thing for me too. I've seen enough pictures of burnt up dashes to not want anything more going through the headlight switch!

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Totally unnecessary. Yes Ford got it right the FIRST time! Sorry I'll see myself out :rolleyes:

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Would like to do something bigger but it's looking like an IDI is all that's going to fit without cutting. Would like to eventually hop one up with a big pump and an R&D turbo kit, would like to get around 300hp (plan on hauling with it). DT466 would be ideal but I'm pretty sure they're too...

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    I'm absolutely shocked. Not 6 inches away the frame is literally gone, but the bolts still came out of the driveshaft with very little fight. Also, vintage 1989 F350 frame for sale, no lowballers I know what I have.... (Some assembly required)

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    I suppose I could, however I have another crossmember here. I'm not sure if it's E4OD or 2WD ZF5, but I'm just going to modify it with a piece of pipe. At least that's the current plan.

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    Yeah... I WAS! It's a little too far gone for even me to try and save LOL

    Took a couple more for you.

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    Uhh... Yeah.... I didn't realize that step was attached to the cab hahaha In my defense I TRIED to unhook everything first LOL

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    That's premium NY road salt for you.... That coupled with years of sitting. The two combined is a horrible combination. Even the leaf springs are rotting apart.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Last Saturday I brought home a new project :D 1951 Ford F7. I have exciting plans but have to finish other projects before I can consider starting this one... :(

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    The rain has been almost every day this year :frustrate Since we're supposed to have beautiful weather this weekend I started working on the parts truck. As you can see, I don't really want to spend any time underneath this unless I have to.... So let's get the cab ripped off and out of the...

    Hydro boost question

    I don't believe they are being produced anymore, at least I couldn't find them. RockAuto has one reman listed as having the pin but it's almost $400 including core charge.

    Question installing Powermaster 9050

    Some of us have tried that. After my third or fourth warranty replacement starter I gave up and put a powermaster in. Zero regrets and made in USA too.

    rotary fuel pump

    I ran a Delphi version of that carter pump you're referencing and it didn't have sufficient flow under load at RPM. I was running into fuel starvation issues pulling hills. The carter could be different but I removed my Delphi e-pump and went back to the mechanical, the problem went away.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Glad you went and got it, I wasn't looking forward to a 20+hr trip to get a free valve cover. LOL

    They have been done several times since that picture I promise LOL

    Diego Revisited

    Not sure what you're referencing, can you tell me what location you're referring to? EDIT: Are you referring to the one in the thermostat housing? That's to bleed air but not allow fluid passage with the thermostat closed. I would not be surprised at all if yours had fallen out at some point...

    Diego Revisited

    I could but then I'd have to find a vacuum cap for the port on the tree and I don't think I have any. I do have plenty of excess bolts kicking around.

    Diego Revisited

    Haven't been around much lately but we failed inspection the other day, probably because the vacuum booster has been leaking a little bit as long as I've owned the truck..... Said he almost drove it through the wall. I normally drive like an old man with very little brakes, I'm assuming he...

    Rock Auto, scam on shipping?

    I look at it this way. These numbers are all completely made up to illustrate how I imagine it would work because it makes sense to me that way.... You have 5 items in your cart that weighs lets say 9.5#. You add one more that makes it 10.5# which jumps the order to the next shipping tier so...
