New GP's and smokey no mo
 
Put some new glow plugs in the 95. I didn't think my old ones were that bad. It would smoke when I started it cold, for quite a while.
No more blue smoke when cold. YEA!
Put in a 3" downpipe and removed the cat, that turbo is freed up now.
I didn't know if I'd like this truck compared to my 83 f250. Now I have a hard time deciding which one I want to drive.
Now if we could get diesel cheap....

Good deal :-X22 Do a new GPR to? May want to consider. I have a link for the stancor one many are running (including myself) and they work great! Let me know if your interested and I'll find the link for you

Did that too. Got it from Napa. Don't know if it's a stancor or not. Send a link and I'll check it out.

Nice truck.

I certainly don't have a stancor then. When this one dies I'll check that out.

mwk, Here is where you'd find it, part number is already in. $45 plus shipping

Place is used to bulk orders, thats why is has all the different pricing options, maybe us here at FTE should collectively buy a bunch and save some Green??

not to mention its 15000X larger than the orig one

Ya thing is a monster. After you install it, you can see a HUGE difference in the amount of juice is draws to charge the GP'S. Volt's go WAY down. Make sure you have good working batts for this mod!
