    96 powerstroke GP hollow tip stuck

    Yeah i was mildly sarcastic in that reply lol, because i cant imagine why anyone does it this way when it takes ONE fitting on the side of the case vs 20 and a seal that has to be redone Also, alot of oil manufacturers make bag quarts of oil for easy rear-end/transmission fills, and once you...

    Front seat options for 1994 F250 extended cab?

    My '96 has true independent seats and console, try looking for them I also converted my standard cab '97 to f150 seats, but they are NOT direct bolt in by any stretch of the imagination, heavy fabrication and eyeballing was needed

    I use the Prestone Command purple NOAT in my 7.3, we'll see how it holds up and what it does over time I did the research into it 4 years ago and it seemed to fit the parameters for the 97s, but dont ask me to quote them, cuz ive totally forgotten lol

    Fleetguard Red Coolant

    I know my machinist and I were blown away when i took my mustang's 408w in to be rebuilt from using FG red. Inside of the engine looked like new, and water pump had zero play in it after 8 years and 70k miles of playing around with it and occasionally going to the dragstrip. I dont use it in...

    The engine oil pressure sensor on the backside of the hpop Yeah idk why i had it in my head the oil temp switch went to the reservoir, ive had that reservoir off before and i know the gear is there, it can't have oil there, well, not much

    Hot Tow, now hot starts.

    got the covers pulled... FINALLY... no oil firing on any of them, which was what I was guessing because I had no smoke while cranking and yes, that was with someone turning the key, not a starter bump button :3 its got to be what I posted, I have a brand new IPR im going to put in this...

    Back to the 7.3 after the s10 drama lol... So i checked the hpop reservoir, oil level ¾ of an inch below the oil sender unit when i pulled it out On a thought, pulled the ICP and there was oil under the connector, totally saturated... so now im guessing its sensor related I have a new ICP and...

    Ohhh, i was under the impression it wouldn't start at all until the lpop had adequate psi So, im chasing the opposite then it sounds like And im probably calling them incorrectly, the plugs behind the cam cover plate in the rear that feed the mains

    Hot Tow, now hot starts.

    yeah, Hpop levels were fine, nothing on the injectors are going to be firing if I don't have low pressure oil conditions met first tho… im suspicious the galley plugs in the back of the block, at least one of them might be blown out, guess pulling the engine is in the future, I needed to pull...

    Hot Tow, now hot starts.

    So, after going to get a '96 7.3 extended cab two weekends ago, noticed something odd after the trip, about 600 miles of towing right at 1,000* the whole way thanks to a headwind I was at 2500 miles on my oil change before the trip, a warm restart can have up to 4 seconds of cranking and the...
