    Help Needed Fuel Filter issues

    Ok well it worked. I went to ford and that filter comes with 2 orings and a snap ring and they wanted 84 bucks. CRIMINAL...They ordered it but I'm not going to go back and get it. I might come up with something else later. It just seems like a redudant filter anyway. When I go to E-fuel in the...

    Help Needed Fuel Filter issues

    Thank you guys. I will let you know if it works. O'reillys opens in 45 minutes and I will be picking up my fuel pump to see if this works. I don't see the filter missing as being a problem considering the truck ran for 2minutes without a fuel regulator or a fuel supply at all. I really...

    Help Needed Fuel Filter issues

    I did a bunch of diagnosing this afternoon. Final determination is brand new fuel pump went KAPUT after fuel restriction of 4 miles. I started by checking how much flow I was getting from my fuel tanks. Both were relatively little but draining on their own after the fuel switching valve. I...

    Help Needed Fuel Filter issues

    Anything is possible but would that create the conidition I have? Even with the fuel filter out and cranking I can see that there isn't any or at least much fuel comming into the fuel bowl. Here is a learning question. When I cleaned that FPR screen last time I couldn't get it off and only...

    Help Needed Fuel Filter issues

    Well I had my new injectors installed and everything was great. Then my wife was driving and the fuel filter light came on. She made it another few miles and it completly crapped out on her. I brought a new filter to put in it but the one in there wasn't that bad (only 100 miles on it). Still no...

    Will do. I notice it is worse when in gear at idle. I have an auto transmission. I've been ragging on it hard the past couple of days and think I have almost all of it now. I really do hate my torque converter. I never realized it until driving around my direct drive car for the past month...

    I finally got my injectors back. Everyone in the country was back ordered on parts or time to rebuild them. Finally got ahold of Geoff from GTSmotorsport and pulled my injectors that weekend and sent them to him. He has a slight back order on parts as well but was able to get them back to me...

    Yes I did call Beans Diesel after Rosewood Diesel said he was back ordered on parts and couldn't get me into his rotation until Mid May. Beans said that they were confident that their back ordered parts would be comming in next week and that they would likely be able to catch up on back orders...

    Yikes!!!. Yep it has been parked since 2 days after it started. Been carpooling and it is a pain but it makes sense in the end. Called around a lot and everyone is back ordered on parts or is backlogged on rebuilding them and can't get to them for awhile. Going to go with GTS motorsports...

    Glad you could hear it. I drive it every day and I thought I heard it but wasn't sure if I was just telling myself I heard things becuase of the smoke. But I'm pretty sure you are right as I can hear it in one of the cylinders on the passenger side.

    Here are a couple vidoe's of the truck. Looks like I'll be sending mine off to be rebuilt by Rosewood Diesel when I get a chance to take them out this weekend. Hopefully he can get them done and back soon. Haven't decided yet but thinking some stage ones. Would love to go 2s but no real need the...

    Is anyone making a reasonably priced kit for the intercooler tubes anymore? I'm sure I could pick up a used 6.0 IC and spyder for a reasonable price. It is the tubes that I would not be able to replicate in this place I'm stationed at now. I'll have to do some research on the Superdut...

    Thank you, I will probably look into that then as I do have quite a few rigs. Many times I've wished I had an OBII reader. Trying to trim the herd down. Got my backup LX450 running today again so that is good. Gives me some time to figure out what to do with my F250. So here comes the...

    Yes I knew it was bad for the injectors, I was getting away with it for so long though I thought I would be ok. I'm pretty sure that is what happened here. I was just driving my back up car to work today (my LX450) and it broke down on me, hence here checking in. I also have another car I...

    I only have about 5 days of driving it like this.. total of about 100 miles I would say. What is a contribution test? Where would I get one? I'm in Podunk America where unless it has something to do with picking peanuts you are SOL. Skilled labor forgot this part of the country.
