    89 f250 ac question

    The switch is there it's the low side port that's missing.

    89 f250 ac question

    I have done many ac systems. I was just looking to make sure go the old setup was. I will be draining, flushing and te sealing the whole system, and replacing the orifice and accumulator. I was thrown off when I couldn't remember where the low side port was on this truck. I should know j used to...

    89 f250 ac question

    I'm guessing someone either converted it or started to but there are two ports exposed on the accumulator. Does anyone have a pic to diagram on which one is which? Can I just get. R12-r134 conversion port to put there?

    89 f250 ac question

    Hello, I have a friend at church who is a missionary. His AC is out and I am endeavoring to fix it. Issues is, I cannot find the low side port. There is a port that has nothing on it on the accumulator but I can't find if that is where the low side port should be or where to buy one. He's...

    No Crank

    I tried working the clutch pedal but that didn't help. I guess I'll check the wires to see if I'm getting 12v to it and through it

    No Crank

    Jumping the fender solenoid starts it fine. It only has 3v at the trigger wire at the fender solenoid when key is turned to crank

    No Crank

    Oh I forgot to say, I can jump the starter and she starts no prob. And the ign switch shuts it back off.

    No Crank

    I am not getting a crank on my 95 7.3 psd, 5spd. Getting 3v at the trigger wire on starter solenoid. I'm guessing it's something simple but it eludes me. Please help

    Front driveshaft

    Ok so if the shaft won't compress during driving then I need to go by exact measurement from yoke to yoke while the truck sits on level ground. Correct?

    IH bus engine in 95

    Well now I am wondering if my t444e has AC injectors which are single shots. From research, t444e is either AC or AD so maybe that's part of the prob? I'm gonna pull the valve covers this weekend and verify which one I have.

    Front driveshaft

    I was just wondering how much I need to give as far as I know what the center to center is with the truck sitting on the ground but surely that's not the compressed measurement. Shouldn't it need to have more compression capacity for bumps and such? I didn't know if there was a method to the...

    IH bus engine in 95

    Now that I've driven the truck more I have to change my story. It runs well and has a lot of power but it smokes like crazy. The engine is a t444e. And I had the tunes written for splits because that's what everyone said this engine should have. The tune written by Brian @ Jelibuilt makes it...

    Front driveshaft

    I have had a bad double cardan joint on it. I found a shaft on rock auto and bought it. Fast forward through the last year of craziness and I finally put it on. It's too long! I purchased (and double checked on every website I can find) the right part but the length says 38 1/4" long. Mine...

    Excessive black smoke after oil pan sealant change

    I was just think about something. What is the best way to check for a boost leak? Ever since I got this engine it has felt a bit anemic and I thought it was due to the tune for the SD injectors. Maybe it's part of the black smoke issue like you said.

    IH bus engine in 95

    Ok all, I have had terrible luck with my 95 F350. I have blown 2 engines in 2 years. I did install a PHP with canned tunes a couple of years before the first engine had problems but it stayed on the 50hp tune. I don't think I ever put it in the highest tune even once. Here's the kicker, I don't...

    Excessive black smoke after oil pan sealant change

    I thought about the oribg and asked that that he pulled and inspected. I would normally do this myself but my truck is in Kentucky and I live in Louisiana. I'm hoping it's something simple like that.

    Excessive black smoke after oil pan sealant change

    No loss of power like a boost leak just tons of black smoke

    Excessive black smoke after oil pan sealant change

    Yes. Could it have failed?

    97 7.3 to t444e swap

    It has had a tank of fuel run through it. And it's been like 1-2mo since the work was done

    97 7.3 to t444e swap

    And yes it's coal smoke.

    97 7.3 to t444e swap

    I swapped everything from my old motor including injector harnesses. I also have a tune from JeliBuilt to run the different injectors. Also the truck didn't smoke at all before the mech flipped the engine to change the oil pan sealant.

    Excessive black smoke after oil pan sealant change

    Ok, blew my engine, replaced it with a bus engine with 100k miles. I put it in and it ran great except I got oil on the ta-31 oil pan sealant before it setup so it leaked. I had a mechanic pull the engine and flip it so the ta-31 sealant would setup properly. Now the truck blows black...

    97 7.3 to t444e swap

    So I got the engine put in and then had to have it pulled back out as the ta-31 sealant got oil in it and leaked terribly. So now, since the motor got pulled and flipped to PROPERLY apply the sealant the truck blows black smoke like it never had before. It's smokes like a teenagers truck...

    97 7.3 to t444e swap

    Thanks. My motor is a 2001 t444e so it should have split shot injectors. I am going to have a tune written for this but wanted to make sure all of the hard parts were transferred over.
