Ps I have a tank in a old gas blazer in NC if you want to come and take it off you can have it.

if the tank is off clean and sand the area and use fiderglass to repair it . If you do the entier bottom you wont have a problem again. I did this on a old tractor that the dottom of the tank was gone in its lasted 20 years with diesel in it. While the tank is off change the sock on the fuel pickup.

If you are looking for more mpg and power turn up the fuel and add more air. I cut a extra hole in my air cleaner and added hoses to bring fresh air from the grill to the motor. I want to try a inline blower motor from a boat as a bost to see how much that helps. People sell them on e day for a...

I work in Butner if thats where its located. I alos worked at the military shop in Butner so I know where it is and can look at the truck for you before you make that drive. Driving it may be a option but dont count on it. Most of the time they have missing parts starters alternators and bent...

This happens all too often. Alot of the drivers that flee are driving with no licence stolen tags and no insurenance. When they have a acident they jump and run and dont care who is hurt or worse. Glad to hear your going to be ok and my best to your son. For the person that caused the acident...

The # 1 selling truck for 30 years. Look for diesel trucks for sale on the net everyone is trying to sell their FORDS. I can find 10 fords to every chevy on the net and only the old chevys are being listed. People keep the good new running trucks. Lots of ford owners know Chevy owners they have...

Where the engine mounts to the bracket the bell housing bolts the round pieces of pipe need to be longer to move the engine away from the bracket. also conect a radiator to the engine and make sure you have a drive belt on the water pump. Just starting them they may sound great but with no...

I use a 1/2 inch metal pipe thats 4 feet long screwed into my pump. You can lower it into the waste oil as far as you want and keep the water and crud out.

Just like any other water pump might want to replace the timing chain at the same time.

If it sucked water in you might have a bent conecting rod. before to much damage is done time for a tear down and check it out. If you wait it can destroy the crank and the block.

Install the bracket at the back of the starter. It bolts to the block and the top post on the back of the starter. Make sure you use a starter shim between the block and the starter. I would make a fold over bracket to keep thoes bolts from backing out . Bolt the starter on with the bracket in...

clean the brake shoes and spray the springs and other metal parts with wd- 40 or another water repelant .

if you give it more fuel give it more air. the best mod I did was to cut a hole in the air filter housing the same size as the one already their. Just letting in more air realy made a big difference. No turbo no air hose just a window to let more air in.

I have ben doing this for some time now and have made some of my processing gear .I have a diesel transfer pump from harbor fra-e and a 55gallon barrel with two hot water heater elements in it . the elements are 220 but i use them on 110 they last longer. I drain the water from the bottom of the...

Pulling the intake wont let you see a broken glow plug. push a small screwdriver in the glow plug hole and look again for the missing piece through the injector hole. the engine might have eaten it but try to make sure . Try to find a bore scope to look at the cylinder for damage.

check the u bolts on the front and rear. check the hub bearings and for brake drag. also front lifting blocks are not legal for road use in some states. Just some things to look at good luck.

Worked in a military shop. Used Felpro gaskets. Tighten in 3 steps 20, 40, 93 ft lb. dont go by the mark and turn in the book. after 3rd step just go over them one more time at 93 lb. Use thread sealer on the bolts and rtv on the bottom of the bolt heads. Clean the threads on the bolts and in...

To get more fuel milage give it more air. Use the neck of another air cleaner and cut a hole in the one your running . You can also ad a hose to get fresh cool air for more fuel savings. A turbo will help but only untill the head gaskets let go.

I had a 1997 chevy tahoe that my daughter went end over end with. I used the seats out of it. I had to use 3/4 in spacers to lift the seat and drill new holes but now have arm rest and electric seats that tilt. Worked great. My daughter is fine one **** of a truck.

I wish I had seen that befor I paid $300 for one at advanse. I have to build one now and realy am happy i saw your post.:lol::lol::lol:
