Re: Fuel problems

The switch is 2 wires. Inside the box is a metal funnel and a metal ball that is slightly magnetized. When the ball is in the funnel current flows and thus the pumps work. When the ball is kicked out of the funnel by a hard jolt there is a lever that catches the ball and suspends it above the funnel...

Re: runs untill its warm (video)

So I got out this morning and messed with the ol truck a bit. I found that I was able ot keep it running if I held the rpms at about 2k or above. At times I had to give it more throttle when it would try and sputter out. Giving it throttle would bogg it down a bit then the mixture I suppose would co...

Re: runs untill its warm (video)

I first tried a used regulator but like you I was suspicious of it being faulty so I got a new one. The new one is the one thats on ther now. On the video the regulator shows that it seems to be able to hold 8-10 lbs of pressure but it needs about 30 or so to stay running. Can you tell from the way ...

Re: runs untill its warm (video)

Was getting some stuff to fix a motorcycle today and I ran across a cheap fuel pressure gauge so I got it. Hooked it up when I got home and it appears that my problem is the high pressure pump on the side rail. Heres a video link of it on Megavideo. http://www.megavideo.com/?v=G6GJJ5CZ After startin...

I go to that salvage yard almost every week so I could be gettting a memory mixed up. the Bronco that is at the yard right now is an 88 I know because ...

Re: Just one fuel pump?

Is the pump from an 89 a direct fit or do I need to get the whole $150 assembly with the sender for that?

Re: runs untill its warm (video)

Re: runs untill its warm (video)

Sorry for the delay I had to work on Friday and Saturday. This morning I undid the EGR and that didn't help anything or change it at all. I 1st just pulled the green tube off the EGR (the one that goes to a type of pressure switch next to the starter relay), no change. So I reconnected the green tub...

Re: runs untill its warm

I thought about keeping the fuel system mod in this thread tek but I thought it shoud be a seperate thread since it is a mod rather than dealing with my no run problem. If any info was posted here on it I was going to transfer it over to the new thread as to keep things organized for someone that mi...
