    Ford 5000 4 cyl diesel injector/pump help

    Change it every spring. Did not note the hours but under 50. I can say that the time I determined the #1 cylinder was not working by loosening the fuel line diesel did squirt out just like the other 4 if that means anything.

    Ford 5000 4 cyl diesel injector/pump help

    I kind of figured I'd need a special adapter. I also am pretty sure I'd need a diesel specific compression gauge as I'm pretty sure mine doesn't go up that high.

    Ford 5000 4 cyl diesel injector/pump help

    These were my thoughts exactly but as I mentioned I have very little experience in diesel engines and wouldn't even know how to do a compression test on an engine with no spark plug hole. To add to it; yes, it has a whole lot of blowby. Would it be common for low compression in a diesel to...

    Ford 5000 4 cyl diesel injector/pump help

    I’m looking for help/suggestions in trying to figure out what is going on with a Ford 5000 4 cylinder diesel misfire. It has a frequent misfire on one of the cylinders until fully warmed up then runs perfectly smooth (this only started this year). Mostly at the higher end of the RPM scale but...

    Help; Ford 500 diesel injectors?

    I have a Ford 5000 4 cylinder diesel and need a set of injectors for it but the ones I see (that look correct) and are listed for a 5000 seem to come only in sets of 3. Do the 3 and 4 cylinder use the same injector and/or what am I missing here? What would be the correct part number for my...

    Auction find

    Had one in engineering school back in '69. Was on my way to a class for a test when I dropped it. Didn't think much about it until during the test it said 2 x 2 =4.2.

    Might stop changing my own oil.

    Yup, you and me both. Worse part is it takes me hours afterward to feel better.

    Now we must pay to turn in our old flashlight cells

    Before recycle centers took old tires for free you'd always see them along the side of the road. I remember (maybe over 40 years ago) we'd get paid $5 a pop for old car batteries (back when $5 was good money). I used to collect them as a "kind gesture" and turn them in for some good cash.

    Why do new cars/pickups still come with spare tires

    In the last 10 years I've has 3 tires going down on 3 separate vehicles. 2 had spares but didn't need them as I had an electric air pump to bring one back up enough to make the short distance home. The other I saw going down in my garage. The third the tire monitor warned me in time. Just bought...
