And they also take more space on the road, as someone who drives, works on, and is 6’7” tall and large and sits in them and stores stuff in them for working on things, where’s all the space going?

We just went to ford, didn’t I show it in the video though?

Just the friction or pressure of the rubber seal that’s in the transmission, that’s all that holds it in that end, the large bolt on the engine is the only actual fastener that holds it

I think so? We gave it away to a farm

No cat or short pipe after we put the cat on, I forget

Sorry, no, the jist is visual though

Thank you, lol

Did you try unmuting it?

Oh snap son 😆...got'em

Purge the filter from the top, use a hose if you can, and if the pump was a cheapy one it may just not work, if you can reach the solenoid on top (big round thing) and unplug it and spin it free, then you can purge the air from there to the pump, then install that again and plug it in and pressurize the system, then use a 5/8 or 3/4 (I forget, it’s been a while) wrench to loosen the lines to the injectors one at a time and crank it for about 10-15 seconds or less if it starts to slow down, then prime the pump again to pressurize it and do another 10-15 seconds, do that for each injector then tighten them all up, also make sure you hear the pump when you prime it and that your using the jump wire and not just turning the key on and off, because it takes like 20 seconds to a minute of running the pump to really prime it

Also maybe make a video of your symptoms and what it looks like under the hood/what you do, that way I can be sure you’re doing things right

Took me a while to figure it out, and there wasn’t much online, not to mention that backyard mechanics tend to go to KZbin first because it’s usually quicker than reading through some crap telling you how to go to the dealer at the end of a 40 minute blurb about their life and backstory

@@aterack833 I've been working on cars professionally for about 12 years now, I bought this escape as a flip car and it had way too much play in the shifter, I started to think it needed a cable. Needless to say but you saved me a lot of time and money, and for that I salute you.

Light too long of a story, essentially I drive a broken screw into my hand during testing because I didn’t have the vice grips tight enough and didn’t expect it to slip there when I was applying a low torque (with an impact driver mind you). the reason for testing was of course because you can never trust cheap eBay items, especially ones from China, and lately items have been saying they ship from one place but then when you buy them it says item location:China

@@aterack833 you see im actually on your channel bc i recognized your profile photo due to nostalgia and i wanted to peek at whatever a channel with that photo would have uploaded, and then i realize im watching a video of a dude unscrew a screw from his hand

Light ah, I see, and ya, the moment they changed it I looked around to find the original, I wasn’t able to get a screenshot of the original before the page refreshed on me and gave me the garbage one, but this isn’t actually what the real original looks like, it was just the closest available in a decent enough resolution to not look like just a copy or screen capture, I had snagged one screenshot before so I could compare, but the resolution was trash and I think it was a comment reply sized one too

Sverp 380 it’s a pun, makes the pain go away

Didn’t see these comments, sold it already

Just followed the wires when we took the engine out of the car it came from, the truck was trial and error with lights and multimeters and then hooking up power and trying switches and buttons till we knew what everything was

hard mounted to plates with holes drilled in, wooden blocks for spacers, really cheaply done, drove good till the hood flew up one day, need to do a lot of repair work but have too many projects on the go already

it says, and i don't want to talk to you, you were rude earlier

302 (5.0) HO from a mercury cougar

it's a cell phone from early 2000, and it's not the stock motor by any means

I should verify, it’s a stock 5.0 HO and the cam is a joke, it’s just the EGR valve open to let in air

no one asked you

Pull the glow plugs out one at a time and prop it up so that the glow metal is not touching anything. With the glow plug hooked to the harness turn the key to on. In a couple seconds it should start to glow. Look for differences in behavior between glow plugs. Glow plugs can be individually checked by hooking test wires from the battery to them. They should "glow". The other glow plug system component is the controller. Several people have bypassed it and used a momentary switch to glow the plugs.

if you noticed the engine ran for 2 seconds by my hand, i knew of the dangers of running without a harmonic balancer and even when my dad ran it it was for 10 seconds and as far as how i speak i was just 17 at the time, i know that running without the balancer can damage it but so can using the wrong tools to install it, we still ended up having to use a block of wood and a mallet to tap it on and use the bolt the rest of the way because nowhere within 250km had the tool for installing it, as for the glow plugs ive changed them many times but now just this year was able to afford new ones (all parts were junkyard parts previously) and now it doesn't click... at all, its blown from the amp draw so i wired in a toggle switch and copied the light, even now it takes 1 or 2 8 second cranks to get it ready to fire up, we have brand new plugs and fuel pump and fuel filter now, im most certain that this may be the rings at fault seeing as the dirt was awful and the gaskets were chewed up, why waste money on gaskets for a water pump when the head gaskets were free and came with the truck, and may not have been the issue, prior to this video we dispensed 5 starters 3 used but in good shape from running vehicles,one rebuilt and one brand new. since the video we have went through a re-manufactured one and 2 used ones one of witch was of questionable quality, if we used brand new parts of paid more than 90 bucks for an injection pump you could say we where stupid, but at the time we needed a pump a filter a ip and injectors at least as the sand got that far, but after a compression test revealing 200psi as the highest and the rest falling below 100psi it was obvious the compression had faulted. we have since upgraded to a light starting fluid that contains no either and therefore does not expire (if you used it as often as we did for this beast you would know that it looses its potency after a short period) this new fluid even has lubricants in it for those dry starts, even with either we need to use glow plugs, with 8 working plugs we need either and with 3 we need almost as much as in this video, with them unplugged we cant start it with any amount of either and thats disconnected from the plugs themselves. we also have new batteries now too and can crank it for 20 seconds a set and 15 sets before it slows down, on days where the heat is unbearable we can start without ether after 7 tries at starting all using 25 second glow cycles, we tried shorter cycles to no avail. we also have a 12volt assist pump on the frame, fuel gets there and is filtered the glowplugs work and are being used, the batteries have more than enough juice and there is just enough compression, the only things that could be done to better this engine are a brand new or professionally rebuilt injection pump and injectors, new rings and cylinder honing/ridge reaming (with new gaskets to re assemble of course) and possibly a new starter. with all of that (that we could never afford) it will start like our other truck, of course replacing the glowplug controller would eliminate the guess work and chance for human error.

less money? we spent 180 in parts and bought 2 tubes of silicone, the tow to a real mechanic would be upwards of 250 in our area, i know were the clicking comes from, i needed to know why, coincidence no i know they click what i was asking is why the pulse jackass, ive tested the ohms and they are within spec, and the new plugs are new, only got 1 bad on in the set, the glow system is fine its the relay, my dad thinks its supposed to do that and swapped a working one out just so it pulsed, again not me.

I was 5 hours according to my other comment, this was so long ago though and I think that was at idle or something

could I shot u an email n pick your brain , I'm having an issue with my 1990 f250 7.3 idi , I would really appreciate it n honestly need some help it's my first diesel n I'm not 100% on where to start looking for my problem , I'm thinking I have a bad fuel pump , I'm not getting fuel out of air valve on the fuel filter housing , it was running really rough at idle n was sluggish b4 it just died n won't fire back up anymore? I do have some air in my fuel line, could I have to much air? n what's the best way of getting all the air out the lines on these 7.3

It had no functional glow plugs left at some point so the ether was likely necessary, and we changed the pump a few times after because of multiple failures
