Good luck with the head gasket Kenneth. Still no cutting for me. Went back to the doctor on Thursday. I will be in the air boot for at least 3 more weeks. I am gonna split a couple weeks worth of wood today. I probably shouldn't but I need to get out of the house. I might go up to Perry and see if they have anything I can't live without.

Would that be Bishops shop,haven't been there in several years. They had a lot of nice old saws
on display.

 

[warjohn]

Yes,

They have been getting a lot of them restored, at least cosmetically. They look good, not sure if they run. They were closed today so I made the trip for nothing.

Warjohn that stinks I thought they were open till 1 or 2in the afternoon. yes they have some very nice old saws restored. worth the trip if gas wasn't so expensive:msp_mad:

I'm not a diesel mechanic, but I did stay at a holiday inn last night... Evenin' Kenneth... Get yer truck fixed?

I've got a 7.3 non turbo. Got the injectors laying beside it now. I understand they can have a problem between the water jacket caused by insufficient lubrication in the COOLANT.

Always something.

Is it lubricant??? Or is it the vital anti-cavitation additive that's supposed to be it the coolant???:msp_sneaky:

Now that is splitting hairs. IF it is anti cavitation ( ? ) THEN it is probably doing some lubricating.


HOWEVER, I forgot we were amongst those that actually know, instead of myself that found it hard to believe when I heard it.

Carry on, just saying.

Actually I should get two points. One for having one, (a 7.3 non T) and one for knowing.

If you did have two more points where would you stick them?

A. I don't know much... Just have alot of theory's...
B. I'll rep us ASAP...

Kenneth,

Sign on the window said closed until the 23rd. I was going up past the lake to help a friend that was in a bad motorcycle accident last year with his taxes. So the trip didn't cost me any extra gas.

I wouldn't call myself that, although I have wrenched on a few Powerstrokes. Never an IDI 6.9/7.3 though. What's going on, (other than the head)?

I knew I was against taxes. Now here is proof that they are detrimental to one's health.

Actually that is a pretty good question........

 

[Locust Cutter]

going to the shop I have a head gasket problem.:msp_mad: hope I can finish today. I'm out.

If you ever need more insight on that engine (until you can replace it w/a Cummins) there's a website I found which could be a lifesaver for you. Ford Powerstroke Forum Give them a try as there's a lot of info on there that could be indispensable to you in the future.

When to ship to mod?

First ask yourself, do you want it medium or well done?

One for Hedgerow

I'm not too crazy about hedge, but this one took on Joplin's F5 tornado. Everything within a half mile is either destroyed or gone. Just hope it doesn't get cut up for firewood!
