    Hey all, To make a long story short, my wife accidentally put gasoline in the rear tank of my 1990 f250 7.3idi. We were moving both of the trucks and she doesn't drive standard transmissions so I was driving the Chevy and she was in the Ford. Fortunately, I noticed it before she was done...

    Power glow plugs thru a switch straight from the battery?

    Hey all, I just bought a 1990 7.3 with an ATS turbo. Haven't had one of these trucks in years because, unfortunately, I bought my first one as a stupid 18 year old and ruined it. So I sold it to a guy who wanted the zf-5 out of it. And I've kicked myself over that ever since. But now I...
