6.9l Diesel Fuel System Maintenance
Part 7 of getting this old thing running right again! If you're not familiar with this series, I bought this truck (1986 Ford f250 6.9 liter diesel) for $500 and have been fixing it up and keeping track of the costs. Today we're doing some long needed maintenance on the fuel system for the truck, including the fuel water separator, fuel filter, and some fuel additive. Zip ties and bias plies would not be proud. Stay tuned for the next video!

    Looks great. I bought enough for 2 vents. I was going to try a push/pull system. One on one side of the container pushing air in and the other on the other side pushing air out. What do you think?

    Ford used to sell a bushing kit for the brake and clutch pedal assembly. Kind of a pita to change but doable might even be some old videos out there on how to change them. Also you may have to end up welding a plate to the fire wall if you have a rust issue with the assembly mount. Last the clutch slave cylinder has a plastic clip which attaches the pedal to the shaft check too for wear. Good luck.

      @HarrisT Před 2 měsíci

      Yeah I had the vents built in when I ordered the container. I mentioned it somewhere in the video. You’ll need some basic metal fab skills to do it yourself. At the most basic level you could cut a hole and put some 1/8th inch screen over it. Though the fan would most certainly run more efficiently mounted on a flat surface, rather than the ribs.
