    Intercooler/ piping Q's

    Quick question to you Simp. I see you don't have the OEM cast air filter housing in use. Will these connections at the intake hat & on the turbo allow the use of the factory air box? THX Much, Rick

    Hey there Gary, so back to your return from Regina. How did your daughter end up doing ? We left shortly after talking for the Golden Retriever Nationals in Saskatoon. All the "kids" placed well in their competitions, no high in trials or Grand Champions but well enough for gaining titles &...

    Leaving For Sask. Canada

    Good morning gentlemen. Is there any way of getting a hold of "icanfixall" while away?. Does he check e-mail while on the road? The reason I ask is I tried getting in touch with him last year @ the Royal Red but missed him. It seems he comes to the event here in Regina every year. It would be...

    If anyone is interested I have a DPS turbo cal pump & 8 Stage 1 injectors . Bought for a hop up project that can't. I used the "PLAY" money to put a new mill in my 94 F250. She burnt up the back 2 piston ( that CDR problem we have). I put a reman mill direct from IH with a rebuilt high...

    Guys with NP205 t-cases please read.

    I run a 205 in my 79 Bronco rockcrawler. The gears tend to load up & do not like to disengage until you release the drive train. I tend to give the throttle a little punch then immediately push the T-case into 2wd. I like to switch from 4X4 to 2X4 while running trails ,it make steering much...

    6.5 idle up project.

    Good day folks, I spend most of my time @ the Ford 7.3IDI forum. However the shop I now work @ has 2 late 90's Chevy 6.5 Turbo diesels. Both are electronic pumps. We also have a 96 F450 with a 7.3 Powerstroke. The Ford already has the factory idle up box in the cab. I'd like to be able to idle...

    winter plug in alternative

    Pointeca, please post the particulars of your truck. Like year, model, engine,tranny, etc. Up here in Canada, there is a product ( Commandstart, Prostart, Articstart, you get the idea) basically it is a remote starter for your vehicle. The better quality (more expensive) models have a cold start...

    winter plug in alternative

    Get your hands on 1 of those small gensets, probably 1200 to 1800 watt, they weigh about 30 to 40 pounds, and are about 1' x1' x1' in size. Up in Canada they sell them @ Canadian Tire. I think Wallmart has them too. About $ 400 . It is small enough to bring inside the building so it will start...

    Funky fan clutch.

    Thanks Robert, I checked under the bench & no puddle & no crud on the spring thing. I got a can of brakeclean & blasted away the area around the spring anyways. Is the fan clutch activated by heat from the rad? If so I may not be working her hard enough to demand extra cooling. I was babying it...

    Funky fan clutch.

    Good day folks, Put a reman IH motor in my 94. All is well except I don't think my fan clutch is operational anymore. When working my old motor, you could hear the jet engine kick in & the temp would fall. My mech guage is in the drivers side head. I was being very gentle on the new motor...

    Can I punch 1 hole only?

    Redtruck, I assume you had the IH dealer install the engine. I may have some different experiences because I am doing the R&R. That being said, I put the order in for the IH engine today @ lunch. She is in New York. So they figure 7-10 days to get out to " THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE" . Sometimes...

    Can I punch 1 hole only?

    Now, that's what I'm talking about!!!!. Thanks to Redtruck for the input. The long block from IH (part # 991869C91) is listed as for Ford F series 1993- 1994 only. At 190hp. notation #4 on part # lists it as " Factory-installed OEM turbo" . So I would suspect that there should be no trouble at...

    Can I punch 1 hole only?

    Howdy folks, I took a quick ( 4hrs round trip) blast to look @ a 94 F250. The ad in the paper said "rebuilt engine, blown tranny" . Now the goods, truck has 260K on it now. The PO says the engine may have 10K on before the tranny let go. However that was 2 yrs ago. The truck has sat since 2005...

    Can I punch 1 hole only?

    Hi de ho folks, Got the news from the machine shop on Fri. In their experience the left bank (oil cooler side) is prone to cavitation.The block needs #7 bored . They will only do the work if they sleeve all the left holes & #7. That's 5 sleeved holes. They seem reluctant to even inspect for...
