    Burning up fuel shut off solenoids.

    amazon has these solenoids but may not be dependable. It says Stanadyne but I don't know. https://www.amazon.com/Solenoid-Stanadyne-Injection-RE62240-WARRANTY/dp/B073WPPXZT

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    Very well put. When I crawl under my truck, for whatever reason, I do a visual scan of everything. I noticed things that needed attention the last time I threw a piece of cardboard under the truck and slid under it. A lot of those were items I made a mental note of, that would need attention in...

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    When I replaced my driveshaft support bearing it was 100 times easier and faster that the u-joint replacement. I was surprised. And pleased.

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    If it was me, I would not re-grease. I have to go through the process of lowering the shaft support and removing my u-joints to replace my bad ones. Now the next ones will have a normal grease fitting so I can grease them every so many months. Maybe every 6 months or whatever. I drive everyday...

    Strange finds in valve cover and glow plug hole

    I would inspect every square inch under that valve cover, rocker arms, etc. It came from in that area so concentrate in that area with a bright light and a mirror. Don't be in a hurry. And that piece around the glow plug may have been a glow plug connector that came off of the top of the glow...

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    If you're going to the time to remove those u-joints you may consider just putting new ones in. That is a lot of work, at least for my truck as I also have a driveshaft support bearing. My transmission is a manual and have 3 of those u-joints.

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    Well, I don't have a needle grease fitting and as IHC1470 mentioned, that may be a hardened cross, I don't know, I thought they were cast. The problem is they were not greased at regular intervals. The next 3 I buy will have the regular grease fitting and not the smaller one. I was surprised to...

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    Thanks Mike. I have Torque King bookmarked from awhile back. They sell differential parts also I believe. Pretty intensive website if I remember. I just got home from work. think I will take a look again at their website.

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    No, I didn't leave the hole open. And yes, I did pack them with Shell grease. The same grease I use in aviation applications. It's called Aeroshell 7.

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    No, it didn't have a slot, and yes, it takes a needle to grease them. It was hexagonal like a regular grease fitting.

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    I am leaning on spicer though. I may check out GMB's, never heard of them.

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    I did buy these moogs, they had a threaded opening for a grease fittings but the threaded opening was too small for a standard grease fitting and they came with this weird fitting. But I agree, regular greasing makes them last longer. I had an idea of pulling off all the caps, washing the yoke...

    f350 cab and chassis Ujoints

    Need ujoints again. Have the choice between spicer and moog. Replaced all three on the driveshaft 2 years ago and they're starting to squeak again. My work truck, use every day. 92 F350 cab and chassis, zf5. Any suggestions. Thanks. Mike

    Anything look weird?

    Yes sir. Those two injectors actually still had the washers on them. The injectors themself didn’t look too bad, no excessive carbon build up or gunk. One of them was a little more wet but I wouldn’t say it struck me as odd. Looked like the copper washers were still in the opening yet you said...

    Brake issue

    Are the fronts grabbing along with the rear brakes when you reach the end of master cylinder travel or only rear brakes?

    New R&D injectors

    To be honest, I didn't see the fuel consumption get any better but there is more power and very smooth. I just swapped out my speedometer 2 days ago and the odometer is working believe it or not. I will post my mpg this week.

    New R&D injectors

    I finally swapped out the old injectors on 92 IDI with Justins injectors. Truck had been running rough, smoking and putrid smell for months. Some injectors had no copper washers and one had 2 of them. Took my time, clean out the injector cavity (or whatever you call it), they were really gummed...
