Also found something weird. The torque converter unlocks when I engage cruise. Could that be the brake switch?

So whats the oci on that stuff? At $20/qt that's pretty steep.

Ford has announced a 7.3L Gas pushrod engine. And Ram is developing a 7.0L. GM better go big

One issue the truck still has is hard start after a heat soak. It has new stock output injectors from 5 0 Motorsports. It will start on the second try or if I give it a little throttle while cranking. I'm also using Gibbs 10w40 break in oil, what should I do for the first oci?

The previous owner sent me $1500. I did not take it to the previous shop which is probably a good thing after seeing the mess of red goop over grey (possibly rtv) tryinging to seal the tin on. The current shop used the right stuff sparingly and even cleaned off the headers after install, it...

The steed is back in action... OUCH THAT HURT! Anyways, WAY more pep 1800-3200rpm so far. O'Reilly's engine Extreme Energy Comp Cam Black bear black box tune Gibson headers ALOT of misc parts Still blows 4x4 fuse... Time to trace that down while I throw in the 4" diamond eye.

Little more expensive than the red heads but looks nice

Welcome to TTS!

Not a bad idea. 5/20 or something light would probably be best to soak in? Or lighter like WD40?

I am putting a marine cap and rotor on a distributor the shop had laying around, said it had been sitting a couple years with around 5k on it before the guy wanted an ls swap.

I put the same on one of my other trucks, never was "tight". Pretty sure they are dormans.

Never have gotten all of the adapters to get to the test port but I did buy a T that I put in line with the lift pump, very little psi dead headed. I checked the fuse, relay, voltage at the LP plug, and finally probed the wire right next to the LP.... The wire snapped and had corroded...

I'll check, I was hoping someone knew if they were any good. The clips on the current pins look like dorman clips.

Where is the best place to buy pins and bushings for doors? Rockauto only has dorman.

Or better yet.... Buy a new seal kit so you aren't having to fill the gap from the original 150k mile 20yr old seal. And what kind of so called professional uses that orange/red junk. Right stuff is cheap and easy to use.

I picked out 3 3-6" rtv strips out of the pick up screen. I'm guessing a oil passage got plugged on #4 to cause the issues it had.

There is not a factory oil cooler on this truck, how hard would it be to add? There is an ac pusher fan and trans cooler so there is not the same space a 6.5 has for the cooler to mount

So the engine lost a wrist pin, and scuffed a piston. There is silverish goo in the exhaust port. The pick up screen was plugged with 3 colors of rtv, the pan and all sealed surfaces had 3 layers of rtv in 3 colors.

That sure is purdy
