    I bought a edge juice w/attitude chip for $500. Has a fuel pressure monitor and egt, works really good. Also has an alert when the fuel pressure drops below 5psi. So far I haven't seen it go below 10, and it sits around 13-15 most of the time. I didn't tap the pump wire though but im already...

    where can I install a fuel pressure gauge probe? and is there a sensor for the trans temp already? Id rather not have to tap a new one and risk a leak. The injection pump, lines, and injectors have all been replaced. I think he said it was about a year ago, they are all still new looking...

    about how often do the injector pumps go out? i just looked up the price from Oreilly and its $490:eek:. are there any other parts more expensive that break often? this is a good reason to stay with a gasser for me, the parts for my b2 are dirt cheap compared to this.

    i read on this forum http://www.biodieselnow.com/forums/default.aspx a few people said they had been running biodiesel in 6.9s and they worked fine, even with B99 or B100. I think bio diesel is illegal in texas, wonder if it has anything to do with the oil refineries down here. So i was thinking...

    im definitely going to look over it when we meet this weekend. Ive seen some bad rust and know what that will do. Do the head gaskets tend to go out on these motors? I havent ever worked on a diesel before but ive done alot of work on gas engines, i should be able to do it myself. He says it...

    yeah thats what im thinking, the b2 is my daily driver, im in highschool. Its got the stock drivetrain, so its not like i have too much into it. it gets about 17mpg, but i cant really take it on the highway its way too slow with 3.45s and 33s. it is 4x4 though which is what im debating, cause...

    I have a 1988 broncoII 4x4 5spd, im thinking about trading this guy for his 1985 F250 6.9L diesel, 2wd, 4spd. I was just wondering about the value of it and if it seems worth it. My b2 runs fine, everything works except the a/c, amp guage, parking brake. It has a chop top, cut to make it look...
