    Compression test

    i'm actually pretty dang happy with the pittsburg ratchet wrenches from HF and the pittsburg swivel headed ratchets or as a buddy and i call 'em the double reverse left handed with a right handed option swivel headed ratchet. haha. they actually are very handy on our engines for all the hard to...

    Injector Intensifier Piston alteration

    in my opinion the stage 1's would be a good idea if your just looking for a little more power. i have the DIY stage 1's and with wildman programming i made 352hp and i believe 751tq. i drive this thing A LOT on extreme tune and don't have a maintanance nightmare. and with the stage 1's if you...

    Help Needed Starting issue

    i would replace the starter. if you replaced the solenoid already then it's starter most likely. get one from ford and see if it stops if the problem still occurs then you have a spare starter and know it's not the starter. i can't see the ignition switch doing that, but you can change that out...

    Question Fuel Pump replacment

    the cali trucks has the pulse damper to make the fuel pressure more steady. if you have ever sat and watched the fuel pressure with these pumps it spikes a whole bunch. definitely not a steady stream of pressure, but apparently the cali trucks don't surge the fuel pressure near as bad. not sure...

    Dyno Results..

    well i have my list for things to buy to hopefully make the 500hp mark, but hopefully it will be safe... haha. anyone think i would need to do pistons? my pistons look good and so do my cylinder walls so if i don't have to spend more money on pistons then i would rather leave them alone, but if...

    Question Fuel Pump replacment

    i have seen our pumps get taken out of the truck in 5 minutes... you may need to trim down your turbo pedistal to get more room to move your wrench, but i was able to do mine with out trimming the pedistal. just take out the fuel bowl, get the wrench to fit the banjo bolt on the back of the fuel...

    Dyno Results..

    yep, adding a diesel site HPOP overdrive... haha. so does anyone think that i would need to fire ring the head or anything or just do head studs? i think that the modded h2e with stage 3's will probably make a lot of boost. how much i'm not sure, but my buddy with 160cc stage 2's and a stock h2e...

    what the heck is a 6.0 cac?! haha. i was going to hopefully do a diesel site HPOP overdrive and maybe stage 3's with a modded H2E, head studs, and ported heads. you think the bottom end needs a girdle? if so i could probably just pull the engine and put in a girdle and forged rods, cromoly...

    Help Needed Is it my TW chip?

    i'm staying tuned in on this one!! mine does the same thing in my tow program and sometimes in Daily program. after my IC install i'm down to 25psi of boost and before i was getting somewhere over 30psi(only have a 30psi guage) haha. Let us know what you get figured out though.

    Dyno Results..

    So we had our big annual dyno day this past weekend and with over 130 smoke belching diesels we were unable to dyno all of them, but we got most of them through. Saturday we dyno'd around 75 trucks or so and sunday i'm not sure how many we did, but the guys at ART called it a day at 2PM. My...

    runs great cold, doesn't like RPM warm

    still haven't had time to check it all out, but now that we are done with Dyno Day i can check it all out and start my Project F-150. haha. ran good on the Dyno all the way to 3700 rpm, but the engine was only about half way warmed up.. i will check out the ipr and swap out the ICP sensor...

    runs great cold, doesn't like RPM warm

    did this before and after the fuel system, but i just noticed yesterday that in the "smoke" program it runs smooth as high as i want to run the RPMs(tested to 3800 rpm). in any other program once it gets to 3000 it just falls on it's face. the oil is good and the fuel filter is new. i will check...

    runs great cold, doesn't like RPM warm

    when my engine is warm and i floor it then it doesn't like to go over 3000 rpms. once it gets to about 3000 rpm it falls flat on it's face, but cold it will run to however many rpm's i want it to!!! also i did this last night, i took it up over 3000 rpm being easy on the pedal and it went up to...

    Starting trouble

    is it still hard starting? check the valve cover gasket harnesses for burnt pins and test the glow plug relay. to test the relay i believe you can use a screwdriver to arc across the 2 terminals to turn it on for a minute then try starting it. also if the starter wasn't new as you were told i...

    CPR fuel system going in this weekend!!

    i'm actually not sure if i think it's worth the 1300 i paid for it, but hopefully i will change my mind.. i didn't notice a power increase, but i'm hoping it will help with the 180's or the hybrids. i still can't decide what injectors i'm going with so i'm gonna have to settle for what my...

    CPR fuel system going in this weekend!!

    yep, that's the fuel cooler. i LOVE not having that dang fuel bowl in the valley!!!!! gonna make swapping my HPOP a breeze and hopefully my intake plenums to 3" with the H2E when mine finishes going south(doesn't like pegging out a 30psi gauge at only 2300 rpm, probably 35ish at redline haha)...

    best programer for my 94

    Tony from Total Diesel Performance can reprogram your TS chip with his programs if nothing has changed. i would get it reprogrammed. if you have a common rail and it's juiced up you know that when you have too much injection timing then your truck will get extremely hot and melt the pistons...

    CPR fuel system going in this weekend!!

    that's what i was kinda thinkin'. haha. oh well, i tightened it up a little and it's not leaking now so it's all good. now i can order injectors so that when i get done installing the H2E on my buddy's early 99 we can put injectors in mine. haha.
