    OPS relay mod

    The third picture is the factory relay I believe. I'm not familiar with the 94 set up. If i am correct, leave that relay be and fashion your own relay in to reduce the load on the OPS according to your diagram.

    60G Glow Plugs?

    I found that on really cold days, that the stock glow time was not enough ( at least in my case ). So I added an extended glow time mod to rectify it. It is nice to have when it is really cold. The 60 G's start the truck way better than the 9 G's did.

    Could it be a head...

    NEED HELP!!

    They usually break if one side is tightened and then the other side, rather than drawing it down a little on each side until tight. After 20 years of auto shop instruction, I saw several issues like that. Darn kids.:mad2:

    Newbie Question: Pressure in Fuel Tank

    I think the cap lets the tank vent when necessary and also will allow pressure on the other hand. I would think a slight pressure would be more inclined to prevent foaming. This is how I understand it or I may be off base.

    Quick Disconnect Removal Poll

    I installed a new one after I had to carve the broken pieces of the old one out of the coolant crossover. It was becoming leaky and the aluminum fitting had cauliflower growing on it. It was not a hard job - just slightly time consuming, as I removed the crossover for the carving operation. The...
