    2 Stroke Oil Works!!!

    I tried Walmart--they didn't have it and the tractor/cycle shops only had the small 16 oz. sizes and were asking a lot more for what they were selling. K-Mart was the one place I found it in both the small bottles and the large size. I bought some of the 16 oz. bottles to take with me when I...

    List of upgrades

    You are soooo right about that. I'm on here most every day, early and when I get some spare time. Every time I come on I learn something new. And yes indeed it is an EXCELLENT forum. :thumbs

    Engine Hood Insulation Removal

    There's some in the JC Whitney catalog, page 121 for the one I have. I know this is because I want to put some in the ceiling of my cap to help with the heat in summer and cold in winter and I was checking it out. It comes in rolls. Pat

    4 x 4 Shift Motor

    My truck is a 2001 PS. I did go to the Ford dealer and total amount was $815.00--they really sock it to ya. I figured maybe I could buy the motor myself and have it put in. If it's not too difficult I just might be able to do it myself. I do know how to use a wrench.....:sweet Pat

    4 x 4 Shift Motor

    Where can I find one of these for my F250 SD?? I have somebody to put it on for me--he says there's not much to it. Don't know since I'm not mechanically inclined. Thanks for any advice. :D Pat

    2 Stroke Oil Works!!!

    :thumbs Put the 2 cycle oil in my SD250 last nite, was on the road today and within a couple of hours I could definitely hear a difference in the engine. Not nearly as loud and sounded really smooth. Obviously it works. Good thing this forum is here, would never have known about this...

    Air filters and exhaust systems

    Thanks TBar. Right after I asked that question I decided it might be smart of me to go out and open up the hood, take a look and figure it out which I did. Like I said--I'm pretty ignorant about this stuff but I'm learning new stuff all the time. I have a friend who can install the kit for...

    Air filters and exhaust systems

    Okay, I've gotten about 50 different viewpoints on these two subjects from local people so I'm not sure which way to go or what type/brand to get. I did replace the paper air filter that came with the truck with a K&N filter. My question is should I go for the better model filter and along...

    Nuther Newbie from PA

    Thanks all for the great welcome!!!! Seems like folks really hang on to their diesels and I can fully understand why since I got mine. I was really lucky to find this truck; it's in excellent condition, it's fully loaded and had 73K mi on it but I've put about 2K on it since then. Had to...
