Don't lose the studs. If you don't want extra. Sell them to somewhat does

Extensions. A thin wrench to get on the studs behind the nuts. Get the starter and brace while you're there. Slave cylinder. Get the whole clutch and flywheel. Be careful. Those transmissions are heavy. There's know way I could get one at a pick and pull by myself Is there an option of...

I use these cigarette lighter volt meters https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01N00I4TM?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Yep. I got all 3 sets, years ago. I try to get a set of service manuals for everything. Picked this up 20 some years ago for, I think $2400. I don't remember. Might have been less. It had coolant in the oil. Turned out one of the freeze plugs on top of the head had a pencil lead sized...

Could the transfer case be in neutral?

I wouldn't rule out the PMD or resistor even though they're new. Where did you get your parts? There's also thevfuel fill cap and the optical sensor noise harness to investigate and rule out.

I have a torch they could use to get the tank that's in there out. My wife said she saw one of these guys at the tire shop a couple days ago. She said he right off started telling stories about me. He didn't mention about installing a grain.spreader off ladders on top of corn in an empty...

I don't know. I always assumed it was a Ford engine. I got that issue fixed. Quite some time back, I sucked air into the cav pump. In my stupor I didn't notice all of the fuel had leaked out of the fuel tank. I had just filled it and never looked at the fuel gauge before trying to start...

Unless you're burning it as fast as you're making it

I never heard mention of the Ford part before. Do you have a part number?

I'm not familiar. But I would seriously consider deleting before repairing.

If you're there, it would be a good time to install a permanent fuel pressure gauge

Looks like there could be some deals here. https://municibid.com/?utm_campaign=WFA+10%2F25%2F2025&utm_content=WFA+10%2F25%2F2025&utm_medium=email&utm_source=customer.io

It's something I've never checked. Not that I've swapped many manual transmissions I think 4 total. And one was in the 1968 Camper Special mechanical linkage -was that a C2500? I must have just got lucky every time. The biggest problem I ever had was bleeding the slaves. I got lucky a...

Or air or leak down. I'd start with verifying glow plugs and fuel. Replacing, testing rebuilding and balancing injectors would be right up there Glow plug torque spec is 14 ft-lbs (168 inch-pounds)
