    Turbo Tuning

    As for the last suggestion from 2000wa250 and rusty: There were no exhaust leaks. I had it apart again and none. Was no boost leaks, I found none and it was sealed up tight. As for fordfreak4life: You were spot on. Not enough fuel to spin it up. Pulled it and put my other turbo back on...

    Turbo Tuning

    Good news <> bad news. Used a 4" internal cap w/ an air fitting. Put it into my intake snorkle. Good News = No leaks in the cold side. Bad News = Well that would point to not enough fuel yet to drive it. Too much air for now. So looks like I'll swap that turbo back out and put my old setup...

    Turbo Tuning

    Re: Not enough fuel in the charge. Just- Maybe (before the 238's). I did make an assumption on my part that it wasn't too soon based on the black smoke being there before the upgrade and now. That is why I asked James what he thought on that (still no answer). He knows what my setup is. I...

    Turbo Tuning

    :poke: I assume you are making a good intellectual related joke on my behalf? My hat is off to you sir. So others can laugh along with that pun- The Sequential Importance Re-Sampling filter (SIR) theorem is based on sound being filtered out by the presence and accumulation of built up other...

    Turbo Tuning

    Great idea. I think I have all the materials for that here. Will have to make one tomorrow and check it out. Thanks. Will get back to this post after that.

    Turbo Tuning

    No I didn't. You mean disconnect and block the "Y" pipe and intake, then figure out some way to hook compressed air to it to test it to about 40-50 pounds? Spray soapy water and watch a gauge to see if it leaks down? If you don't disconnect it at the plenums... How do you keep it from getting...

    Turbo Tuning

    Yes. (noted that in first post). - I sealed the housing with the o-ring plus silicone. - The only pieces I had taken off were the spider/"Y" pipe... I inspected and checked inspected every boot, fitting and such for leaks (none). I don't have the pipe done for my 6.0l IC yet, so there wasn't...

    Turbo Tuning

    I'm a little frustrated. I put in a boost fooler in anticipation of an impending turbo upgrade. I set it to . So my electronic gauges now won't read boost above 25 pounds. (They go through the PCM.) My mechanical does, but it's a GlowShift and for some reason it's just not smooth when it works (...

    a different take on e fuel

    Please do. I have to agree. Fun is fun // But reading this is counter productive and just downright rude. Jeez! I'm no expert <--> I'm still learning every day... and it's look's like I'll continue that elsewhere. (Or just lurk.) No-one deserves what is going on around here. I''ll think twice...

    a different take on e fuel

    Dave- Talking about physics, you didn't seem to understand what I said... the fuel restriction to the heads is not the fuel valley itself... If you look back at my post, the restriction is the ID of the fittings to the heads. If you install bigger lines to those fittings, you are still going...

    Bad injectors?

    One or two dead, I would say other things. 4 dead, bigger problems that narrows that down. You already checked the wiring and electrical going to and from the injectors, so electrically, there are sound. Since it is the whole bank on one side, it could be one of two things... -Check to see if...

    Connecticut emmissions ... stacks OK?

    I guess it would be handy to weld header collector types of flanges for easy swaping of a delete pipe or cat? Just happy that's not me...

    a different take on e fuel

    You all are funny! I'm no doctor, but there is logical arguments on both sides. This is just me thinking out loud. 4 feed fuel system: Pro- The feeds into the head is only 3/16" through the center of each fitting. 4 inlets add more area to enter the fuel valley.You can only drill out the...

    Are you kidding me??

    Mine was an epoxy repair 10 years ago and still holding... But mine had no wire broken. Happy that your's is back up now.

    You must not have read the posts(?) I already link him to a tech bulletin with all the directions for that. I think he was checking that last night...

    96 oil pressure gauge drops when shifting to park

    When you talk to him... So you get an idea of the actually work that is involved. There is actually less work invovled in replacing the Low Pressure pump than it would be to replace the water pump: http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/985332-melling-lpop-install.html There is only 8 bolts (if you...

    96 oil pressure gauge drops when shifting to park

    Sort of and sort of not... That is what you you see in a gaser. I checked several Ford tech refrences. 3 sources. The Ford first had is at these ranges, tested at different RPM's: The second said the normal operating specs at operating temp: at curb idle, 10psi; at 3300 rpm, 40-70psi. The...

    Bad injectors?

    No problem. I'm known for diagnostics. Before I invested in AE, I had to get real creative on the cheap. Now, not as full featured, but I coan do a lot of those same things from my phone and was less than $30... Have never used the Snap-On scanner, so don't know what features it has. IPR, ICP...

    eFuel Question.

    Sweat! Makes me feel better about what I what to do now. I'm on benefits, so it takes me a while to scrimp for things. So you have the original 2 from the front side... and one from underneath/further back to back the return to the tanks?
