 Anyone close to DIA?I'm in the parking lot and the super duty seems to have lost the ability to cold start in 40* temps. Could use some jumper cable action while I cycle the glow plugs.

Re: Anyone close to DIA? I could be out there around 2:30 if you are still stuck. On a call until 2pm. I'm about 30 minutes away. I'll call you when I'm done with my call.

Anyone close to DIA? It's a combination of issues. Mostly revolving around the injectors I suspect. With 225k on the odo, the first part of its life spent in Texas, and three transmissions, I think it just had a little bit of a hard life in the beginning.
I'll be pulling the injectors this week to put new o-rings on them and see if that makes a difference. If not, I'll be ordering up some Stage 1s from Ryan Casserly at Full Force Diesel, a Terminator T500 HPOP and new tunes from DP or PHP. Combined with the need for new tires AND a regear, and it's not going to be a good season for the Bronco fund. _________________ Stroppe'd 1972 Sport, 302, 3 speed with old school Duff floor shifter, T shift Dana 20 with JB Fab twin stick, 4.11 gears with Trac-loc, Lincoln hydroboost, Chevy disc conversion, WH gas lift gate shock kit, 33" Duratrac tires on slots and about 2.5" of lift, Stroppe installed: bumper braces, dual shocks on all four corners, GM power steering, trans cooler mount, auto shift column, rollbar.
