    Heater fan and dash lights quit on 126

    Hi, I just got my wife's '84 300SD out of winter storage (it was sitting next to my workshop). It fired right up, there was a lot of condensation under the hood. All the accessories were working, and I left it running with the heater on while my wife hosed off the winter collection of tree...

    3G in 94 F-250 or 93 F350?

    Hey all, I'm looking at a 3G conversion for my truck. I found someone parting out an F250 94 diesel. Does this truck have the 3G ? I also found a '93 F350 diesel being parted out, would it have the 3G ? Thanks

    1998 Windstar, 3G ?

    I have a lead on the alternator from a '98 Windstar, is it a 3G, and will it fit an IDI ? I would take all the wiring harness etc that I can as well. ($35). I have about a 45 minute drive to get to it though.

    86 6.9 loses power when warm ??

    Hey all, I'm looking at a deal on an '86 6.9, 2wd, automatic. I haven't seen it yet, but was told that it starts fine, but loses power when warm. The current owner was told it needs an IP. It has new batteries, glow plugs and fuel lines. All I know so far. It is cheap, I'm interested in it...

    How do you tighten the bottom line on the IP ?

    Hi All, My 7.3 (with turbo and intercooler) is leaking fuel. Naturally it is the line 'down in the valley'. More specifically, passenger side, bottom. If facing from the front of the truck, and the IP lines are a clock, this is at about 6:30. I have moved the throttle line and vacuum lines...

    6.2 years interchange ??

    Hi all, another question. I've been a Ford IDI guy for some years, but am buying a 1990 6.2 Chev with lots of stuff on it. The bottom end of the engine 'broke' after a recent complete rebuild including valve grinds, pistons, pump, etc. I'm thinking a quick fix might be to find a decent...

    Broken 6.2 in good truck ?

    Hi All, I'm looking at a 1990 Silverado automatic with a 6.2. It has a banks turbo on it. According to the P.O. the engine was rebuilt, then about 20K later bent a rod. Is this fixable in itself, or would it likely have taken some other parts with it ? Will a 6.5 work in this truck easily...

    'Smokin and Missin' and no power all of a sudden ???

    Hey All, a few days ago I drove my truck and it ran fine. I parked in the usual spot. Today it fired right up, it idled fine, but that was the end of the fun. As soon as the RPM went past 1500-2000 it started sputtering and missing and blowing great clouds of bluish greyish black smoke. When...

    ? How to fix leaky injectors ?

    Hi all, Last week I was working on my '84 6.9. It wasn't starting so I tested the glow plugs (7 / 8 were dead) so I replaced those and it fired right up. However, to get at 2 of them I undid the clamps on the steel fuel lines to get a socket and extension on the glow plugs. When I put...
