2015 test mule

Fix that bumper!

Not really any way to fix it. I gutted all the brackets and supports out of it. So not really anyway to support it with out adding a bracket.

I'd be willing to bet most people only see the rear bumper anyway! :tree:

Any had a chance to investigate or know if the injection pump is the same size? I thought I saw earlier somewhere that it was insinuated that it might be different than 11-14.

Pump is different. Stroked iirc. Not sure if bore changed

 

[Buck1]

Retrofitable? I am game to try. Mine won't hold on some big tunes, has 176k and I need an excuse. I'm happy to gpig if it is thought to be an improvement.

Not ready to commit to dual fuelers yet, or let's say momma isn't ready.

As far as I have been told, it's a direct swap. I won't know for sure for a couple weeks though. I've got an engine here on a stand waiting for the pump

Btw, I have your rails done. You still have my number?

 

[Buck1]

I Beleive I still have your info. Will check. Thanks! I may give Ford a call then.

Oh but it is !

We need a "mike's drag truck" thread. I'm surprised it doesn't have the big air dam under the bumper for aerodynamics and fuel economy LOL

Grossed 38k#. Pulled it fine but at wot it jumped the eng temp way up and the fan kicked on so I took it easy. Not sure why it did that. Shouldn't get hot that fast.

 

[Morgan@Midwest Diesel & Auto]

Oh, and towed this too. Did just fine plenty power while towing. Didn't get hot but didn't pull it that hard.

The truck has 1500 miles or so on it and has yet to get over 11-12 mpg.

Might be the way I use it. I understand while towing, but empty it should be better. It does run harder than the older version. The spool up I've gotten used to.

More to come.

Nice

This thread is making me want to get a new truck lol. Was planning on a '16 but it may come sooner.

 

[WHY NOT]

Just about any time I hook a trailer behind mine my milage drops quite a bit. 13/14 at most empty with a trailer then I can have 26K behind the truck and still get 11

Order a pump from Ford, so the wait is on.
