    New Mexico to Ohio again

    Your neighbor lady is going to love you even more when you show up tomorrow with another project. . . . Are you going to swap the pyro from the dead truck to your other Deuce when you get there to pick it up, or do you have another laying around? @Bradley, that is the most universal shop tool...

    New Mexico to Ohio again

    Just talked to Nick on the phone he's about 15 min from home in the 1008. Think the Deuce may have tossed a rod.

    New Mexico to Ohio again

    Got a call from Nick about 1.5 hours ago, the motor went south about 80 miles from home base, he is having the truck towed to a nearby yard, and is driving the 1008 the rest of the way. I think he will be driving his other Deuce tomorrow to recover. Ed

    Is turbo mod worth it?

    I put a Banks system on my 1009 with a 6.2, TH400, and 3.73 gears with 33" Swampers. I used to hate driving it anywhere that required driving up a significant grade, with the turbo, it's a whole new truck to me. If you can afford it, hang a turbo on it, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    If you have fuel at the filter housing that pumps/squirts out as you crank the motor, your mechanical lift pump is ok, turn the key to the run position and under the hood, remove the pig pink wire from the top of the injection pump, you should hear or feel the solenoid deenergise, then click...

    Won't start...

    Here is a link to a 12 volt conversion that actually works, look at it and see if your truck was done the same way, otherwise, you may have a big mess on your hands. http://www.roscommonequipmentcenter.com/news_notes/nn10.pdf

    Won't start...

    I think your alternator or charging circuit is not working, start the truck, then pull the negative battery cable off, if it dies, the charging circuit is not working. You should have more than 11.5 volts when the motor is running.

    CUCV: Won't Start; NO FUEL... How to bleed out air?

    Thants a really, really bad thing to do, if enough liquid gets into a cylinder, it will hydraulicly lock and you will break things.
