After a little cussing some tinkering help from my younger bro and a few calls through the phone network I figured out what was wrong with my $1800 PSD...... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
It was so flippin simple to fix...they I bought it from is gonna flip haha [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]......
From what I can tell the EXPERT Powerstroke mechanic that was workin on it before me musta been a dunce....
The gear that drives the HPOP was never bolted back up proper....it backed off and twisted the gear to were the teeth wouldn't catch.
So after two years of this truck setting and no one knowing wats wrong. A month after i bought it and 2hrs of wrenchin and this thing fired right up.
Thanks to Big K, Luke Cline, Darrell at dpppower, Dave and Jon....I got this thing singin [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I had to bend their ear a few times. Always helps to confirm what you are lookin at is NOT right [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
I'm so freakin happy right now.
Here are two pics first one is before the second is an after you can really tell the difference....

Re: YES YES SUCCESS.....haaahaaa I got it runnin.....
Way to go Paul,
That is a good looking truck, what year is it? if you remember when I bought my stroke it cost me $16.66 to fix it, it wouldn't start when it got hot and you and Bigbopper told me it was IPR O-rings I went back by the car lot where I bought it and they couldn't believe it, they said the dealer wanted $1750.00 to fix it Ha Ha. she been running like a sewing machine ever since. Glad you got it going.
See'ya,
Bill Miller.

It'll come in damn handy also. Driving to school i run 500 miles a week with a 5spd 4x4 and 4:10's. This truck is 2wd, auto, and 3:55's [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Along with during the summer I bale hay and always am having to hook and unhook the gooseneck going to and from work...since I work at the court house square [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Bill I sure do. I remember that convo we had while I was on vacation that year. I was proud as hell when you figured out what was wrong with it for such a small price [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] It makes you feel real good.
BTW the truck is a 1996, auto, XL, with 265K on the truck and 60K on the reman motor.

[/ QUOTE ]Well we had to put a new solenoid on the starter(mech burnt it up), two new batts, 2hrs of my time. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
Good thing I have cool nieghbors...he gave me two 3-month old batts to use and his 200amp quick charger. that way i wouldn't have to spend $$$ on batts until I got it running [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
So all in all
$1800 for the truck
$100 tow charge to bring it home
$40 starter soleniod
$120 Batts
$55 Oil PSI set up(per Swamps recommendation)
$2115 total for the truck [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]
In the next few weeks we are gonna install the DP, put a open intake on, and 4 good tires and a set of the aluminum rims [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
