    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...

    Brake Pads

    I did a quick seach and didn't find what I was really looking for. I have 205K on my truck and I think stock pads. Anyway the last couple months they have started to squeak and the last few days it was screaming at me as I come thru the gate with my window down to change them. So just...

    I know I never have any useful tech info to put out there for people but I thought this was sorta interesting. I a bought step van (10,000lbs) for a cummins 4bt that I am swaping into my 56 Ford. I towed it home about 150 miles and the truck did pretty well. I was running 100% WVO the entire...

    hypothetical question

    I must be the worst searcher in all history but I can find nothing that talks about what to do if we in our 94-97's run out of fuel. I read the 99+ a long time ago and was lucky enough to remember that and go help my buddy tonight who ran out but what about us. If I understand it we do not have...

    90 F350

    There is a 90 F350 for sale for 600 OBO. Says Engine smokes but tranny is good as well as front end. People are often looking for the front ends as these have a solid axel correct? I doubt I could use the tranny off of it for my truck or as a spare but it sounds like there is a lot of good...

    Tranny gave out

    Well the tranny gave out on me today. No warning what so ever really. I drove to work no problem and then today when leaving work I felt it surge a bit when slowing down. (The truck has been sitting 14 days as I have been gone) Then I tried to get up to speed and seemed all fine. Then another...

    Aftermarket Bumper

    Well today I got stuck. Really good. So with my 40% tread all highway tires I got stuck in some good NC mud today. While backing up with 2 full tanks and a bed full of wood I got stuck at what first appeared to be a bit of water. Which soon turned out to be good enough to get the passenger...

    WOW Sighting

    Here on Ft. Bragg today I saw the monster of all trucks. It was a Black F-550. Had what appeared to be a 5" exhaust and had to have some sort of intake and newer turbo as I've never heard a Super Duty whistle like that on so low of RPM's. It was black, tinted window, and had about the...

    Exhaust

    So besides the BFH (Big F.....Hammer) any other tools or hints for when I install my DP and exhaust this weekend. I've heard it takes some jiggling and a little hammering in some instances to get it to fit down there. Again I'm horrible at finding already published DIY articles on here so if...

    Stock Water Temp Gauge

    Since I've had my truck my Stock Water Temp Guage barely reads between the C and the begining of the white strip. One time when it was 100 and I was pulling a load over the grape vine I got it to the "o" on Normal. About 15 degrees from 90. I know I'm not running that cold....at least I don't...
