Them old IDI’s can’t be killed.
The folgers can is a charcoal canister, for fuel fumes. EPA crap, it was common to eliminate the smog pump and all of that back then. There are videos showing which idler brackets to bypass all that.
Thanks brother! I appreciate it! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
You have to put the treatment in the coolant to stop cavitation! Key to keep the engine clean baby! Can't wait for this idi build ! I never realized the Banks side winder Turbos are so expensive $3500 wow 2:17The black can is for vacuum! On the gas engine its on the other side! And the fuel tank may have a bad pump relay it will pump fuel from one tank to the other! It can be a serious issue because it will over pump fuel which will cause over flow! Its also hard to find new tank straps! The truck you have is a very nice find! In Pennsylvania that truck in that condition would sell for $15k just the way it sits all day long 23:51
Great video, looking forward to see the progress of this project. I built a 30x40 pole barn in 2021 because I was tired of working in the dirt or having to move around the wife’s car out of the garage. Best thing I’ve ever done at the house lol went pole barn because it was about 1/2 the price of red iron installed and I’m in south east Texas, no regrets and it’s easy to build onto. Keep it up Colt.
Looks like it's gonna be a good little project. You'll be surprised at how much you can do yourself if you have some time to throw at it. I always enjoy the learning aspect of a project almost more than the end result. Keep doing your thing man! Looking forward to the build!
That’s right. I’m deff learning already. Watched a ton of videos on it. Will be nice when I learn it all and can fix it whenever I need to. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Ol Peg at Zip Ties and Bias Plys will be proud of your IDI
The ole Slave Lake IDI! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Damn son !!! That’s a good find …. Can’t wait to see the build up on that bad boy
Thanks my man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
the "folgers can" is your vaccum reservoir. It only builds when engine idles. controls your blend doors for a/c and possibly the front 4X4 auto lock hubs for front end but not sure on that year model.
The Folgers can is also supposed to help with the vacuum brake booster that was before hydro boost was popular
Thank you!! Got a lot to learn!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
That single cab is going to be a blast to fix up. Looking forward to seeing what you do to it
Thanks brother! I’m pumped! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Change all the fluids and drive it. See what you like and what you think. Get a feel for what you want to do with it.
Now that I’ve had the time to watch this I’ll edit this. You’re missing the dust cover on the trans, dirt cheap at a junkyard and 4 screws. Just put a power steering pump on it while you’re doing the alternator but soak the crap outta the lines before you attempt it as they can be a bitch. There was a split second in those 7.3 years where they were a 7.3 turbo diesel, may have only been for 1yr. Half the crap under that hood you probably don’t even need anymore but I don’t know for a fact. Check into the brakes as I think they always felt a bit wonky back then on those engines. Otherwise have fun and don’t do any gay shit like put stacks on it, that old man farm truck look is sweet👍🏻
Thanks for the advice brother! Deff changing all fluids and gonna see how she is! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
@@COLTSWAY 👍🏻🇺🇸🍺
I’ve had a few of these IDI’s and the regular 7.3. Feel free to reach out if you run into any issues, I’ll send you my digits. Congratulations! I’m in the market for another 7.3 - I’m thinking a dually this time. Love Clyde’s new position.
new truck is fun for the whole family! haha
That’s right!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Love that truck!! So much easier to work on and it’s single cab long beds.
Thanks brother! Loving it so far! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Like the family cameo 🤙
Thanks brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I think it's a great buy. I'm going to be here for the results.
I’m pumped to have it home! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I like 7.3, the best motor 👍
Thanks my man!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Man that’s awesome. To fix that noise, instead of changing the straight pipe, try turning “emissions on” tune on. That might help..lol. Clyde made the ride and didn’t even get hit.
Lmao, that would fix it! He still gonna get hit! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Awesome
Greetings from the Seattle area where the cheapest diesel is still $4.99! Look forward to the project
Dammit!! I live right off the coast so it’s cheaper here. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Awesome find! Looking forward to what you’ll be doing to it. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸😊
Thanks John!! I’m pumped for it! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Man that’s fucking badass truck congrats I did the same with a 97 7.3 dually, just check fluid coolant, oil, trans and differential, check breaks and ready to roll man 💪💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hell yea! Gonna change all fluids and send her! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Beautiful truck Colt. Not that you asked, but it would look awesome painted up like ole Clyde in those colors that don't run.
Greatest truck ever!
No doubt! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Badass brother!! Can't wait to see what all you do with it.
My old 2000 7.3 ended up with a 96 7.3 back in 2014. Old farm truck only had 200k on her. Swapped everything over and she ran like a champ!! Miss that damn truck
Thanks my man! Those 7.3 powerstrokes were hard to beat. Prob the best diesel engine ever made. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Fricken sweet bro! Can't wait for all the fresh content on the build 🤙🏾🇺🇸🦅
Thanks my man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I'd take the body off that thing, send the frame for powder, get the body sprayed to match the ol 6.7, put some black 17" methods and 35s and be rolllin. It'll cost you more than the truck did but dang will it be nice.
Would deff make her last a lot longer! There is really only surface rust on it. Being in the Deep South we don’t really have to worry to much about Rusting threw everything. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Can't wait to see what you do with it. I just had my 86 idi rebuilt. Folgers can is a vacuum reserve canister. You should look at the banks turbo kit.
Thank you! How much that run ya to get her rebuilt? Thinking ima out an electric fuel pump on her first thing. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Can’t wait to see it.. keep it up!
Thanks big dog! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Looks like you came thru Longview Texas on the way!! Loving this series
You’re my spirit animal
My man! Appreciate it brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I was just passing through Cameron the other day think I may have saw you. Almost stopped to see that truck for sale right next to it.
Damn bro! Small world, would have been cool to meet you! Stay safe my man!
🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Right on brother. Glad you got the truck man. Stay safe airborne.
Matt
Yes sir! You as well! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Old truck would look pretty sweet the same color as the new truck.. blacked out white.. lots of pretty neat comparisons could be in store
Pretty sure that’s what I am going to do. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Sweet project. Wish I’d a known you was coming through my neck of the woods in TX. Would have love to have met ya. 👊
Always next time! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
First 30 seconds in and I'm sitting here like, woah Colt, save some 'Murica for the rest of us!
Lmao!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
you were in my neck of the woods! town over in rockdale.. badass truck you got there.. cool it only has 55k original miles!
Damn, wasn’t to far away! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Hell yeah! That IDI sound is so sweet!
Yes it is! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
$3.15 for go juice!!! I’d kill for that here. Credit card cries at $4.40/gal.
Looking forward to see what you do with the old gal!
Must live in commifora it’s $3.07 today! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
@@COLTSWAY Damn near…west Phoenix. It sucks!
I thought the 55k miles sounded suspicious too but explains if it was a ranch truck. 55k miles on a ranch will make a mark on it for sure. Steering wheel looked decent as well, not too much wear.
🦅🇺🇸 Cant wait to see whats in store for this truck!
Thanks my man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Might need to add “replace the horn” to the list of things to do 🤣
Congrats man super excited for you and cant wait to watch it progress
Thanks my man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I got the same rack in my truck because of your video on it. Thanks
Nice!! I love this thing! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Saw a truck looked like yours drive through Carlsbad NM few months back.
Gonna be bad ass!
WOO, I am ready for those videos to start rolling in on this project! Last year I bought myself a Ford Ranger.
I’m pumped for it brother! I was actually considering a ole FORD fu***** RANGER! Used to have one. Loved that truck. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
“Gasoline…. Might as well be holding a dil doe” that cracked me up 😂
U spelt that wrong bro.
@@jayflo588 oh ok thanks for pointing that out.
😂😂😂. Just rolls off the younger too easy! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Bro you were rollin son!!! Left lane gang all the way!!! Sounds like freedom!!!
Ain’t got time for em!! Gotta roll!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
sweet ole rig be cool to see the transformation
Thanks brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Congrats
Thank you! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
lets goo brother! good move!
Thanks my man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I had one man Banks make a bolt on Turbo setup you can find them o line but shit now you could probably find something newer and nicer I can’t wait to see this ol beauty come back to life 👍🏻💪🏻🇺🇸
Edit: also you can also adjust the fuel screw for free and it will roll coal and grab you a camping propane torch and run it on the door panels very quickly or a heat gun will work as well but that will make them look new again but don’t leave it in one spot for long you have to live quickly 👍🏻
I had already thought of the gun to restore the color! Hoping it works good!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Congrats on the project IDI rig...
Thanks Will!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I done missed a lot... No mullet, no Bussssccchhh. Let the IDI tell you what it wants... Lift it/mud bogger?
I have no doubt she will tell me!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
The "folders can" is a vacuum canister
Thank you! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great video and wonderful family....
Thanks Jeff! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
More like 150-250k. The old IDI is a good engine, but they have their limits. Folgers can is the vacuum reservoir.
Get an fte resonator for the drone. I had that on my 6.0 and cut the drone almost completely out. My 6.7 I have a Donaldson and an aero turbine and it works just not as good. Both setups kept the sound there pretty good
Deff gonna get one! But gonna try to fit 37 in spare location. So i know it won’t won’t fit with a 5 inch. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
That fuel switch problem, is probably the selector valve down on the frame rail. Easy swap.
Hoping so! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
That is a great truck, congrats. Give it time, once you have covered everything else, you might put a turbo on it.
Thanks brother, and you prob right!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
What Local you with..I was 103 IBEW...Im a Sparkys son up here in Boston...son...Get a notebook...start like you said...cables hoses and flush the fluids...until the shop is ready, then drop that down to the frame...youve come this far...she will go the mile with ya !!...oh ya lil heads up...The wives do not like mistresses...ya might want to include her some way....spoon full of sugar makes that medicine go down...Jesus Saves ! Get Right or be Left. Amem God Speed !!
I’m not Union, half my company is and half isn’t lol. Just depends where you work at. Deff gotta get all the fluids changed and see how she is from that point. I’ll prob add an electric fuel pump and do away with the mechanical. God Bless brother! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
0:58 - 1:04 Has me crying 🤣
My man! You gonna love this then! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

You cant tell me a 2023 powerstroke in 34 years will have everything working on it after being on a ranch its whole life.
You right about that. They don’t make ‘em like they used to, and for a reason! Nobody would have to keep buying them! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I have an 88 F350 7.3 with an ATS turbo. It’s a single cab 5 speed. Dawg you can straight up have it if you come get it. It runs but is ugly af. Im in Houston Texas
Damn son, diesel here is 4.69. Gas for the first time is higher than diesel at 4.89. Damn commies, moving in on my small town. Bitchn bout my dirty diesels.
Gotta move bro!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Pumped for this build! Diesel is $4.30 for me😬
Same up here in Washington...damn I cant wait to move back South
It’s about the same here in SE WI too
Must live in commie land!? 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
The folder can is a vacuum reservoir
Thank you! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
I grew up around those things and currently have one that i'm putting in my grandpa's 1964 f100. If you have any questions let me know. Love you videos. I always get a laugh
Hell yea! I’ll deff be asking! lol. Thanks! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
i have the stock exhaust gutted and a 4" electric dump on the down pipe. Was a tricky welding job but you can turn the loud on and off but even on there no drone just pppsssshhhhwhhaaaa psssttt
Sweet Vid Son!!! Girls be lovin it!!
Thanks Mom! Love you 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Just put a muffler on your 5" pipe and let it roll. I had that set up on my last 6.7 and it took that drone right out of it.
Deff going to! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Excited to see the videos for this build. What mileage do you think you will get on it since it doesn’t have the emissions on it?
Don’t expect it to be to good, but will be excited to find out!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Great video Brother Colt.
I have a 2020 250 Tremor diesel. Do you know if I can put on real headers! I’m not any kink of a mechanic!
No, Out of a diesel you’re not going to get anything out headers like a gasoline vehicle.
No headers on a turbo diesel motor. Exhaust leaves engine, to exhaust manifold then goes straight to the turbo, thru up pipes. Headers not needed.
No you can’t on a diesel. On a 7.3 godzilla you could! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
That was a decent load to tow were you towing with the 80HP QR tune?
Yea, that’s the only tune I run. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Fuk yeah.
Jamie from Australia 🇦🇺 🍻
Thanks Jamie! I’m pumped to have it home! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
@Colt 5:4 ---Every time I roll coal on Greta clones an 86 year old man gets his freedom wings
You crack me up man! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
🎉🎉🎉
Yes brother looks like it’s going to be a nice project. Keep working.🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you my man!!! Excited to have it!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Where the hell do I get the freedom rack?!

@@COLTSWAY awesome, thanks!
Anytime. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
So the hardline being replaced with a rubber one has to do with the fuel tank switch and that switch is a common problem and belive it or not is really fucking expensive and ima keep it real with you build a big ass shop because before you know it youll be pouring a slab trying to make it bigger
Yea, I only need one tank! 😂. Deff gotta get a big shop!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
tell me about Klyde
Ole Clyde is a beer funnel. I usually hit one at the end of every video, but just didn’t this time. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
@@COLTSWAY I knew there was a story behind it lol
You’re a crazy dude were you an 11B in the 101?
That’s right. 11B 1/187 Rakkasan ⛩️
