I don't have to worry about the cold too much down here. Definitely not snow. Either way. Maybe an inline between the spin on filter & the IP would be better. Or do I need to be running 2 spin ons?
Huh..... I didn't know that. I wonder how many people that do the spin on upgrade actually run 2 filters. The 1st thing that comes to mind for a 2 filter setup is to run a 5 micron spin on filter on the firewall & a larger micron inline filter on the frame rail down near the tank. Seem like the...
I'm looking hard at the Wix fm100 base. It has a bleed screw & the hand primer can be added later if need be. I believe it also has the ability to add a heater. I'm in SC so I don't think I need the heater. There's not one on it now cause it was leaking & I pulled the heater out & stuck a...
I know there's 1000 post about the spin on fuel filter upgrade but I have a couple questions. I'm looking at filter bases & some have bleed screws & some don't. Some even have fancy little pumps on em. Question is do I really need a bleed screw or can I just put fuel in the filter before I...
Well, Barrman nailed it! A little bit of bleeding & she's off & running. I really appreciate everyone that took the time to respond to this post. Yall saved me from spending a pile of money on an IP I didn't need.
Lessons learned.
Just cause there's fuel in the filter dosen't mean there's...
Well that's interesting. It's pretty hilly in my area. Sounds like a real possibility. It would be awesome if all I gota do is bleed the IP instead of replacing it.
I pulled a fuel sample this morning & it's nice & clean. Also looked at the clutch linkage & it's clear of any lines, wires, ect. I still need to check the pressure to the IP. Hopefully I'll get some time to play w/it over the long weekend. I'm tempted to hit it with some starter fluid just to...
Yes, the engine was definitely warm when the problem occurred. As to the clutch there shouldn't be anything in the area of the linkage but it's definitely worth a look. I feel like I need to look up the spec & check pressure to the IP. Plenty of fuel coming from the bleeder on the filter.
The filter is pretty new & shouldn't be clogged unless there is some really bad stuff coming outa my tank. I haven't pulled a fuel sample but definitely will.
Alright, I figured my truck needed some love since it'd been sitting for a couple weeks so I decided to take her for a spin. It fired right up & I drove around for about 30 minutes or so. I stopped 2-3 places, shut it off & it fired back up no problem. About a mile from the house I thought it...
Well, I emailed Advanced Adaptors and this was their response
Unfortunately, we do not have any plans to bring it back, and we do not have any inventory left to make any units.
Thanks

That sucks. After reading up on em a little bit the Ranger units seem like the...
