    1984 F350 sending unit on 6.9 (will this work?)

    I can't find the sending unit. So.. Can I replace my rear tank with a 1985 rear tank that has the 4 1/4 opening so that I can use the 1985 sending unit? Local pick a part has the 1985 tank for $45.00 and it might be worth it to get past this issue.

    1984 F350 - No idea what i'm doing

    It started. Honestly I can't believe it. As it turns out the truck had a kill switch to the ip. Once I found that then I started seeing diesel out of the injectors. Again thank's to everyone I learned a lot installing the pump.

    1984 F350 - No idea what i'm doing

    I got the hose disconnected. should I bleed the line? The oil on the stick is black and think, probably a good idea to replace it before turning the engine. The truck has been sitting for 4 years.
