Forget other sites for pics; it just complicates things if those sites are blocked for certain FTE members, or based on where they're connecting from. Put the pics in your album here on FTE ("Albums" link near the top of any FTE page). Once you get the pics uploaded there, on each pic there's a box for "BB code"; just paste that code into a post, and it'll link to the pic.

 

How did it go Steve? Did she fire up?

The reason I recommend Picasa is that it links up to your Android Phone and lets you upload them directly from your phone if you want to. Also, with other photo sharing sites, you can upload full size pictures, whereas FTE has size limits for the photos it will let you upload. As far as setting the ablum privacy goes, when I log into my Gmail account (on my PC), along the top of the screen where all the options are, you hover over "More" and you will see a "photos" option. Click on that and it will open a new windows that takes you to Picasa (or Google Plus I guess it is now). From there you click "Albums" in the top left corner of the screen and you can see any albums you have and the pictures in them. In the top left corner of the album screen it will display the privacy setting of the album. Click on the privacy level to change it. If you want to share the pictures with everybody the privacy level needs to be "Public". Click on the top field there that lets you add people with whom to share the album, and then select "public" from the drop down menu that comes up. Save the changes and you should be good to go. Open the picture you want to add to your post, right click on it then select "copy image location".

After that your links should work to let us go see your pictures, but if you want to embed the pictures in a reply, (on the PC -- I really don't care for the forum's mobile site), when you are typing your reply, you click on the little yellow square icon that looks like it has mountains in it. That opens the image insert dialog box and you can paste your image code (URL) into that field, click okay and voila you should have pictures in your posts.

Let us know how that works for you.

 

Thanks for the info guys. I will give it a try when i get home.

Nate, she is running beaurifully!!!! I have to plug her in but even after all night it takes 20 mins of being plugged in and she roars to life. The neighbors are already complaining about it. I said its an old diesel and if u dont like it, move. Of course, it is 6 am when i start her but, its my truck so suck it up. I think she needs a gpr and a belt yet but otherwise so far she is averaging 20+ mpg.

 

If you're getting 20+MPG with your truck, maybe I need to break the GPR in mine.... About 12-14 is the best I can do lately somehow...

I'm glad it is running well for you.

 

Well mine is only RWD, so i dont have the extra rotational forces to overcome. Im gonna run a few more full tanks and average it out. As soon as i get a chance to get on my pc i will get those pics uploaded one way or another.

 

If you can't figure the picture thing out, let me know. You can email me your picture and I will post it for you if nothing else.

 

Steve emailed me some pics to put up here for him.







It looks like you've got a nice truck there Steve. A very solid foundation for sure! Hang around here long and we will have you modifying it on no time!

 

Alright i read through this tread and im kind of confused. what did he all replace to get it running?

My truck just died on the way home, gonna look into it tomorrow.


I too am from Ohio but up by the lake.

 

Thanks for posting those for me Nate. I have been busy as all get out. It is definately a solid foundation and I do have some plans for her but that all takes time and money. Neither of which are my best friend right now.

Lee, to answer your question, I replaced the cps and ipr thinking they were the problem. Mine did the same thing as yours and just died while I was driving it. I don't know for sure if either of them or both of them were the problem but Nate here helped me out tremendously. He kept me from wasting the money on an HPOP. After all was said and done, I had the above mentioned parts as well as the gp's and batteries replaced. I did the gp's because I had the vc's off already looking oil leaks at the injectors and I knew they were going out anyways.

Here's the walk through for you though. To start, do you have the WTS light and/or CEL? You also want to check the #22 fuse under the hood for the fuel heater. Also try disconnecting the icp plug and try starting it from there. If she fires, there is your problem or atleast part of it. Also, if you go back to the first page of this thread, you will find that Nate (DIY Mechanic) had posted a link to a no start diagnostic flow chart. That may help you eliminate a lot of things. Start here and report back to us. If you replace the cps, make sure that is a ford or motorcraft cps and not the aftermarket stuff.

Nate if you have it, post up the uvch testing paper. I have it somewhere but it may be on my phone. I will check for it and get it put up here when I can.

 

This is my thread https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ing-issue.html
I replaced the cps with an advanced auto one thats what i changed about the same last time and was part of the problem. I printed out that chart to go through i just bought a fuel pressure gauge im gonna see if its at 40psi.
Ill check some of those things you mentioned.

Ill let you guys know what happens.

 

Milage update - after a couple of full tanks she is averaging 15-16 mpg. Which aint bad on winter blend and that lightbar doesnt help either. I do believe it needs a gpr but it will have to wait for tax refund.

 

Yeah 15-16 in mixed driving is pretty decent in my opinion. I'd be happy with that (I'm seeing more like 12-14). I'm not sure what the issue is with my truck but I am working on a mod that should remedy the mileage situation...

 

Ooooooooooohhhhhhh. The suspense is killing me!!

 

Haha, don't get too excited.... I call it the uber-cheap '95 Toyota Camry Mod...

 

Hmm, what is that? Drive a '95 Camry around half the time, and average the mileage?....
