    Yes, but in my case I had a 220V Hot plate and two torches pointed at the part for 30 mins until it was glowing red hot before I started welding anything.

    Not that it matters much for this discussion but I used to weld cast iron turbo manifolds all the time. The real key is using the right rod and pre-heating the part to 300+ deg and slowly cool after welding to avoid cracks.

    Mine had the screen which is basically the same as those garden screens you buy that you push into the hose. This one was plastic with a cross bar so you could pull or unscrew it out for cleaning. I am sure the garden section at Home Depot has the same thing! Despite having that my system was...

    It is starting to sound like you guys think I should make an improved one with perhaps more coverage? Out of say 1/4" steel?

    OK newb question... The center master off switch in my truck seems to do nothing. I would assume that with it off, the ignition would NOT get any power. I my truck I can start the truck and drive away with everything working with the master off. Is it jammed in the ON position?

    The bubbles are a constant flow with the return flow of fuel, but the smaller line right off the back of the valve cover is black so I cant see if they are coming from there or the 'T' itself which might be bad. All the bubbles seem to go back to the pump and not to the tank. The exhaust color...

    Since fuel discussions came up again....I noticed air bubbles on the return line side, I assume that is NOT normal? The engine runs great but I would assume it should not be making bubbles? Thoughts?

    I would like a schematic for sure. I am thinking that the solanoid might be the issue as the starter motor runs all too well ;) ? I will PM you.

    OK guys, so I am a FLU419 newbe. I have read all 86 pages and as I did I was working through issues here is the write up but I have some new issues I need help with too. My FLU has 115 miles on it. All the tires still have knobs on them. It sat in Texas for a LONG time. I bought it as a non...
