Connect the solid fuel line to pump before tightening the pump mounting bolts. Makes it a lot easier!

Jack up the front end and turn lock to lock slowly without starting the engine to not put air in the system!

How many miles are these trucks actually being driven in a year? It will probably be cheaper in the long run to run on good clean diesel with a proven diesel additive. It will start better, run better, and last longer and be more enjoyable to drive without having to fix all the problems that the...

Nice job! I would go ahead and remove (so you can control the direction they fall) all trees right next to the building to prevent future damage.

Look for a 3/8" drive external pipe plug socket the right size. Or an oil drain plug socket set will have the right size. They will fit it tight.

Medium duty truck cabs??

They will get into your open glad hands too!

All my diesel engines start better because the additive raises the cetane rating and they run quiter with the additive because the close tolerances are lubricated properly in the pump and injectors. I do not believe in waiting until diesel gels to try to remedy the problem either!

One thing to consider here is ULSD begins to gel at about 12* F and bio diesel begins to gel at about 30* F. This is quite a bit of difference. The diesel will be ok in say a full tank but when it moves thru the smaller lines into the filter it gets colder and then plugs the filter.

Try heating the screws just enough to melt a candle good when touched to them. If you can get the right temperature the wax will melt and follow the threads down. Let the wax set up a little bit before trying to remove them. If the wax flows in correctly it will expand and the screw will come...

I appreciate the useful information on locating these bolts at Lowe's. However the drill sgt quote using God's name in vain should not be in print on SS. Steel Soldiers is above this I believe!!

I use Arctic formula Power Service in every tank during the winter and regular Power Service the rest of the time. You need the lubrication year round and the anti gel in the cold weather!

John Deere sells a green polyurea grease too.

Looks like knock off Delco. Be careful!!

Rusty, Thank you for sharing this information and YOUR knowledge with us. This is really good info for both of these transmissions. This is what the world is losing everyday is experience and knowledge! Life long hands on experience is knowledge!

Wilson also has the isolated ground reman Delco alternators.

Wilson takes a Delco starter and completely remanufactures it. Not a cheap rebuilt unit. The correct Wilson number for the 27MT original direct drive starter is 91-01-4376. Filters Products Corporation out of Tuscon, AZ sells them for $206.10 w/free shipping. There is a core charge of $59...

You might look into a tractor tube with a TR218A (air, liquid valve). It has the removable valve core housing that might be a little longer than a regular TR15 rubber stem. It will also be more sturdy if you have to add an extension.

Is this ABS light supposed to be on all the time to indicate it is working? Ok, This light comes on when you start the truck. Then when you get to moving the light goes out to show that the ABS is working. I had to drive it a few hundred miles after sitting quite a while for it to work right. I...

This reminds me of the city slicker that bought some nice replacement heifers and fed them really good with some premium breeding cubes. Those heifers never did get pregnant after all his efforts! He resorted to buying a bull because those breeding cubes did not work!
