Yes I support CCD and Russ repair, etc for rebuilders, but anyone with experience with Thoroubred Diesel rebuilds on IPs? Dont get mad, asking for a friend who keeps pushing!!
I am going to replace my oil cooler and get conflictin info on part interchange. On the early 7.3 IDI 87-93 vs the 94 + is the only difference the mounting pedastals or is the cooler bundle different? (length, diameter, etc. ) Worked on these since 1984, but always used the existing, cleaned...
The hassle of trying to clean oil soak shoes is never worth it. Even a set of cheap shoes is less than 50 bucks but I never look for the cheap ones make sure that the reman shoes you get that the E brake horseshoe on top is not worn out, so your E brake won’t work again. A new spring kit is not...
I always love it when somebody tells you what to do on your truck, apparently they either do not have one, or don’t have enough work to do on their own :-)
in case I missed it you need to also make sure that your AC door is opening all the way into the cab there is a vacuum actuated door control right above the kickplate on the passenger side inside the cab that will break or quit and when it does it will not allow the door open fully or AC also...
no, it is called a face cam, made of cast aluminum that the shaft goes through and rotates with the throttle shaft pushing a plunger for low trim fuel at low rpm, called the face cam. As I did research more, they can crack easily if tightened more than 35 in lbs. Mine was loose on the shaft so...
No it is the cam face that wraps around the shaft between the valve body and the TPS mount it’s a cast piece that gives an advance curve, it’s a cast aluminum piece with one Torx bolt going through it
I was replacing the TPS on my DB2 pump and saw the fuel curve cam? loose, (cast aluminum cam on the throttle shaft between pump body and TPS mount.) Mine is 7.3 idi with E40d. Can I drive it that way or will I burn pistons up? where can I get one, at work must drive home tonight, thanks
Nobody has mentioned the fuel shut off in the top of the injector pump over the years I have seen that create a new store start after it being warm they are not super expensive to replace and not much time but you wanna get a good quality one, this of course is if when you were cranking it you...
Make sure the vent is not plugged, it will force fluid past the boot when building heat.
Yes the ZF-5 should have a vent up near the top of the case.
On the ZF-6 it's just forward of the shift tower - a fitting that has a loose fitting cap over it.
if you are concerned still, use center buckle and you can mount a used seatbelt behind the seat (single cab) and anchor through the floor with grade 8 bolt and washers to attach to the newer seats with top strap capability. then you have adjustabliity to top of baby carrier
See, ultimately the thing is the ones that have been maintained by us who have had them for years are not willing to let them go, even with diesel prices on the rise. Keep looking, they are out there in 2wd because they commonly dont know what they have, 4wd usually has been carefully guarded...
Dude, beautiful truck, if you have a heart change you should get good bucks for it. Better speed and mileage would be change to an E4OD built right. Worth the bucks, especially if you have 4.10's like i do!
I have to chime in about controllers I’ve been working on them for almost 40 years the timing unit under the controllers are a big issue and can imitate a bad solenoid because they are filled and youreally can’t diagnose the electronics underneath easily, buying Motorcraft controllers are the...
Traced down wiring issue for instrument panel and running lights, bad headlight switch and blown 33 year old fuse (yep original). Replaced glowplug controller and zd 9's. Had to replace controller 2 years ago (the original was in there still) with Oreillys. Lasted two years. Went to MC...
