    Parting out 1994 F150

    Parting out 1994 Ford F-150. I know it's not a diesel, but the cab is in good shape. There is just a little rust on one of the cab corners, and it's doesn't go through. It's a super cab XL. I have many of the trim pieces left. The rear seat is in excellent condition. I don't have the dash...

    Leaking Fuel Lines

    One of the braided fuel lines from the frame rail to the engine decided to start leaking. Does anyone know where I can get replacements? Ford says they are discontinued, and no where in the country, and I can't find anything in aftermarket. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Extended crank/Hard start when cold

    My truck is hard to start after it sits for sometime, like during the night, or during work. When I go to start it it, it cranks for a long time before it may or may not start. I know it's not a glow plug issue because when I put my amp clamp on the yellow and brown wires, there is over...

    glow plug relay testing

    Somewhere I saw a picture with where I should have power and when on the glow plug relay, but I can't find it. Does anyone have a copy that can post for me? I think my relay is going out. My truck is hard to start when it's cold, and I have smoke coming out of the tail pipe when it's...

    Exhaust Backpressure System

    Can someone explain what this system is for, and the logic Ford uses to command it on and off? How does the the PCM know when to turn it on, and not to. What temperature is it supposed to kick on? I'm asking because the other day the temp dropped to below 30 and it was turning on and off...

    Crank no Start

    I just bought a 97 F250. I knew is didn't run when I bought it, but the price was good to pass up. The previous owner said that all it needed was an IDM because of water intrusion. He showed me the inside of the IDM, and I could see all the corrosion. I installed a rebuilt IDM, and still...

    IDI Metal Fuel Injector Lines $25

    I was cleaning my garage, and found a set of metal fuel injection lines. I used to own an '86 F250 with the 6.9L. I got them just to have a spare set if needed, but I don't have the truck, and don't need them. I'm not sure what or if they will work on the 7.3L IDI engines. I am looking to...

    Anyone interested in a used camshaft from a 7.3L IDI? I bought it with the intention to install it in my 6.9, but I had to get rid of the truck, so I never installed it. I bought it on EBAY for $25 plus shipping, and that is what I would like for it. I can email you a picture of it if you...

    Radiator Support

    Can someone show a picture of where these like to crack? I was looking at mine, and don't see any cracks. I am asking because if mine is not cracked, and someone needs one, and lives close to Omaha, NE, I may have a good one for someone. Tim

    Parting out 1986 F-250 6.9L 4x4

    I'm parting out my truck. It's a 1986 F-250 with the 6.9L automatic. I did post a list before, but still have many good parts. I have both axles (4.10 gears). There are no leaks on the rear axle, and the brakes are in great shape. Drums were replaced when I did the brakes, so they have many...

    1986 Ford F-250 4x4 6.9L Super Cab Parting Out

    Coil or leaf springs.

    I'm just curious as to what the advantages and disadvantages are of going to coil springs instead if leaf springs in the front of a 4x4. Dodge has done it for years, and Ford has gone to it a few years back to current SD's, and had it on the old F150's. Anyone done a 4x4 coil spring setup on...

    Dying Cylinder? (Same Problem different person)

    I was reading the other post, and it got me thinking of my truck. I have a similar problem. At idle the engine seems like it is missing, and there is a definite knock. However, it doesn't sound like a bearing knock as it's frequency is too slow. As I am cruising do the highway, the engine...

    7.1L IDI engine

    Somewhere I remember seeing a 7.1L idi engine. The company I think put 7.3L heads on a 6.9L, or it was the other way around. Anyone know what I am talking about?

    7.3L IDI issues

    Other than cavitation, what are the other issues with the 7.3L IDI engine? What are the best ways to prevent cavitation, or is it something that just has to be dealt with on these engine? I found a truck that has 7.3 IDI, with a better body than my truck. Just wondering if I get the truck...

    I had lost 2nd gear, and dropped the pan to find the wedge that goes between the band and adjuster screw in the bottom of the pan. Thinking my band was broke, but it back together and then started pricing parts to rebuild. Upon further thinking I took it apart again, and found the band to be...

    Truck parts

    Anyone in the Omaha, NE area that needs truck parts? The transmission went out on my truck today, and I don't have the money to fix it, or the other many things that the truck needs. The engine runs great, but could use an IP pump to run better. I'll sell the truck for $1200 obo, and you can...

    Turbo Questions

    I just thought I would pick your brains for some ideas. I am looking at installing a turbo on my truck. Doing some research, I found that it's really hard to run more that 8-9 psi of boost on these engines because of the high compression ratio. I understand that the newer trucks are...

    Oil Cool Question

    I was doing some brainstorming, and was wondering how efficient is the stock oil cooler? Would it be possible to use the actual radiator like GM does? Especially if you have a manual trans, you could use an automatic radiator and use the trans cooler portion as an engine oil cooler. Would...
