Just saying Hello

Hi ya'll
I just bought an '86 F350 crewcab, dually. It is a project truck. It ran until today after tightening the valve covers (where the fuel leaks appeated to begin) it wouldn't start and I noticed the glow plug light didn't come on prior to hitting the starter. Already changed oil, air and fuel filter last week and ran better. It also has a DNE2 aux tranny w/ burnt wires (from exhaust pipe most likely) and missing electrical connections.

its dirty and greasy below the hood, but the last owner has rebuilt the steering and and injector pump and new plugs

dn32 aux tranny? tell me more!

also, the valve covers wont leak fuel. look at the injectors on top of the engine. the lil black caps and pipes are the return lines. they tend to leak fuel after awhile. easy fix, just get some orings from the IH dealer.

welcome
