    website with exploded diagrams?

    bill will post a better picture but here is one I found. Ignore the white arrow. The part I need is the one with the alum collar and the black plastic plug with a red wire. You cant see the red wire but the part is the one right in the middle of the picture.

    website with exploded diagrams?

    Does anyone know of any websites that would have an exploded diagram of a 7.3 fuel system? I need a part for my FPR but do not know the name and ford part sites dont have pictures to verify. Thanks!

    Anyone free to help me today (Sat 8th)?

    I bought some orings for my drain valve but cannot get to it to remove it without significant disassembly. Im not even sure that is the leak source but hoped that an easy attempt. Yeah, right! I need help eyeballing for the source and determining what to do next. I have the orings ready if...

    HELP - Need fuel bowl (I think)

    I am now doubting it is the bowl. I drained it and the fuel that sits below the drain hole never leaked out. I looked at the pitting and it does not look to be all the way through yet. At least not enough to allow the leak I have. The spray on the motor seems to be only on the driver's...

    what max for water temp gauge?

    It isnt the gauges, it is there customer service. Or, more precisely, their lack of it. I like my gauges just fine. I just wont tolerate rude customer service.

    HELP - Need fuel bowl (I think)

    I'll work on it tomorrow if the rain holds off. This started a stream when I started the truck and quits as soon as I turn it off. if that sheds any light on the subject. I replaced my filter last week and had some sludge again but not as much as before. It kind of looked like the...

    HELP - Need fuel bowl (I think)

    Well, started her up this morning and a puddle of fuel started to form underneath. Rolling down over the dust cover by the oil pan. I cleaned out my fuel bowl last week and sludge was there again. I can only suspect the previous pitting I noticed when I had the dirt in the tank finally worked...

    took my daughter deer hunting

    and got a very decent 8 point. She about wet her pants when the rifle went off. She was sitting on my knee when I shot and she had never heard it before. Good thing she had on ear muffs! good pic of the deer is too big. here she is mocking its tongue hanging out.

    bio availability

    For those in the Midlothian or Blanco TX areas, the Loves in Midlothian has dropped from the NearBio listed B20 to B5. In Blanco I found B20 by accident (not listed on NB). I did not even pay any attention to the station name. If you are headed toward San Antonio, the station (Shell maybe?)...

    1st time using B20

    Rooster had a Dahl and with b100 it fell apart. We both use the Racor now. Any hose or other part you can replace, use viton or some other resistant material. The high pressure hoses will need replacing first. Again, though, with a low concentration like b20, it wont be a quick need. I ran...

    1st time using B20

    That I cant say for sure but would suspect so. I know the 6.0 is more sensitive but dont know how much. Rooster is a diesel mechanic so he could offer a more educated perspective.

    1st time using B20

    Risks with b20 are slim. The concentration is simply not enough to cause all the gloom and doom nay-sayers and manufacturers predict. Simply know your source and if it is convenient, put on a pre-filter. B20 is not going to clean everything out very quickly either. Rooster and I have both...

    Mini Mod Day..........

    not yet. Dont know if I will really. I do want to get a restriction gauge though. I romped lightly tonight and it was a little sluggish. I need to check my stock filter and see if I have any crud in there. Where you getting B99 these days?

    Please buckle up your kids!

    For several years we had our daughter convinced the car would not start without the seatbelts buckled. I hope I can con my boy when he is older the same way.

    New RaceTrac Diesel Station In Plano, TX

    actually, I only went there because the day before the sign said 2.99 and I didnt look until I was at the pump. I usually hit the Valero but knew it was 3.04 earlier that day. Think I'll stick with Valero.
