My Journey with the 7.3 IDI and What I've Been Up To...

[@MattC.87]

I always thought it was cool when my dad or my uncle would switch over the tanks and watch the gas gauge go back up at a stop light or whatever. Those were the good days.

[@BH.1107]

Big tank! Seems less headaches. Good to see ya

[@RyanLeeProductions]

Good to see you again brother. I still got my Clyde I won from you last year, he's perched up on top of my fridgerator awaiting summertime. But I agree with you as for going with a single big fuel tank just to simplify things.

[@tonyfisher5322]

It's been awhile!

[@ryanstanton12]

Love seeing videos from your channel!

[@danieltidwell6652]

glad to see you're around. big tank for that beast and make us some hunting videos.

[@EspeyHōmstêd]

Stumbled across your channel when looking for info on deletes for my 19 6.7, but i also have a 1984 6.9 IDI 4 speed that i got from my grandfather 10 years back. Going through the same crap with fuel supply that you are currently. I think intermittent starvation finally took out the injection pump but I have yet to fully troubleshoot the issue. I replaced the front tank with a new replacement tank, disabled the selector for now but neglected to replace the tank pickup at the same time... don't make that mistake, there's a check valve in there that won't pass fuel if it's clogged full of junk. Gonna pull the tank again and replace more parts to see if i can't get reliable fuel to it. Great channel and content, American shit. 🇺🇸

[@Dmoore37]

Good to see you back brother. I think I would pull the tanks and replace them with single tank.

[@deanpowell1212]

Just caught your video on the delete egr on your f250. I just bought my f350 dully and somebody only did part of it. So I was wanting to do the full delete. Egr, dummy plugs and pipes. And anything else it needs to be done. Out of all the other videos I watched, you were what I call a straight shooter. No BS straight to the point. And I really respect that. It's about time that someone does just your doing buddy. So I'm really interested in all and any mods you do to your truck. With reason. I bought mine only to a 16000 lbs fifth wheel. But I love driving it. It's a pure power house. I dont all those fancy stuff. Just things that will be good for my truck. Thank you! D Bravo!

[@kenwestbrook7882]

I think the one big tank is the way to go. I would work on making it reliable to drive and in good mechanical condition before worrying about paint.

[@reservoirappliancerepair2353]

So glad to see you back! We were worried you were done with making videos! Keep em coming!!

[@AmericanbuiltConstruction]

One big tank bud! All day

[@pattyordiway6798]

Sonshines out!!!

[@maverick7969]

Glad to see ya still kicking. I feel you on the hunting videos. I tried that couple times myself. Lot of extra crap to carry with you and still end up missing the best shots. Mother nature's not into retakes either. Definitely go with the 38 gallon conversion. I think you lose the undermount spare tire storage though. Still Less headaches and it's not like you're using it as a long distance hauler. Find Clyde! Never leave a man behind.

[@supertrooper7403]

Hey Airborne. Good to see you bro. Big tank from an old Bronco. Stay safe. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@orBetter-xt1sf]

The tank off a Bronco works well for what you’re wanting one tank higher capacity

[@jlw81486]

I'd go one big tank. Less moving parts. I had an 88 F150 and the rear tank didn't work for similar issues. I love the dual tank setup but you could always throw an auxiliary tank with a switch in the bed if you wanted A LOT more range for a bugout situation.

[@carllennen3520]

Go with the big single tank. Having the dual tank is cool, for the nostalgia, but they are a pain in the ass to work on. The fuel sending units are trash. Youll be dropping those stupid tanks every few years putting new pumps in em. That C6 is a badass Transmission. Youll never break it. The E4OD is just a C6, with an OD, and a computer controlled shift, instead of vacuum controlled shift. E4OD is a strong Trans, as long as you get the upgraded planetary gear. Id stick with the C6, and just rebuild it. It really isnt that hard to rebuild them. When you throw new Axle seals on the truck, make sure you replace the wheel bearings. You will have it opened up anyway, and the year of that truck, it needs new wheel bearings. Make sure you know what rear axle you have. There are 3 different kinds on those trucks. I know from experience, getting the wrong bearings 2 times, before finally figuring out my truck had the "big boy" rear axle. I have a 92' F350 4x4 SRW crewcab highboy, with the 351L, C6. You cant squat the sumbitch. Doesnt matter if Im running empty, or dragging 10k lb trailer. Its getting 10mpg. Its weird. Ive rebuilt it entirely, but left the body original. It looks like an old dumpy piece of shit, till I start it, and she starts rumbling.

[@spikebennett]

If u keep 2 tanks, you could fill one up with diesel and one with black diesel. Idk much about black diesel, but seems like a cool idea

[@HammerdownMotorsportsUSA]

Ron burgundy is looking good a single tank looks like the way to go I would think, good to see you back brother

[@COLTSWAY]

Yea seems like single the only way to go! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@JesseGoodpaster-pg7lz]

One big tank for sure!

[@rboundlessventures]

Also, I would recommend moving the electric fuel pump closer to the source. They push better than they pull. The larger tank you’re talking about is Titan I believe…

[@rboundlessventures]

I would recommend finding a transfer for the bed. More capacity and less headaches!!

[@jordangochnour7356]

I ran a sump on my front tank and deleted my rear tank. Sounds like you drive yours as much as mine. Best decision ever. Got rid of all the air in the system. Bought an in frame filter kit and ran brand new lines the whole way up to an earls 7-8psi electric pump. Holler at me and I’ll explain my whole setup. Less than 1k

[@noonesbusiness8009]

Well good lord son. It’s about time. I done thought u fell off the face of the earth. 😂. Good to see ya again.

[@Story53s]

This is Colts way!!! Not the viewers way!! Drink a latte and tell the haters to F off!!!

[@joshualarkin747]

Big tank, turn the existing switch location into an aux switch for another accessory

[@tmoneycornell]

Hell yea colt just get u a big tank . Dual tanks is cool but always has problems

[@cspencer3448]

Your back! Cool

[@jonathansmart3763]

I like the one large tank idea if my selector dies i would do that to mine

[@mileshiles1287]

I was wondering how bad those tanks were. I enjoy your channel but family is always more important make them when you can. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@luke8210]

Get you some dye for the ac. They even sell it in a can nowadays. You will find your leak right away. Cheers sir.

[@johnstanley8888]

Go with the one big tank! I did that on mine and did away with the bullshit selector valve.

[@JMSynthetics]

Damn he’s alive after all. I thought Greta finally found him 😂

[@ryanpowell6115]

I’d just go one tank and re utilize the switch for some KC lights or something

[@ericdeaton-h4k]

Hey brother, i think i meet you occasionally on I20 near West Monroe? If not its a truck identical to your 250

[@COLTSWAY]

That’s me my man. What you driving? I’ll be on the lookout… 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

@COLTSWAY so do I man!!!

[@AndrewTa530]

Full of corn for that shine. 😂

[@Super_Sphontaine]

The tanks are cheap but the selector is mad expensive id put one big tank and run like a fass or make your own filter/water seperator setup also they make a kit that you can run OEM 7.3 Powerstroke fuel pumps so you can get rid of the temporary pump under the hood

[@hoagy7780]

One tank is the way to go

[@kvboyd]

That fuel filter on the pump is reusable. It’s made of metal mesh. All you do is clean it out and reinstall it.

[@joshmoore8936]

Also...go ahead set the bed off make everything so much easier if u are doing a bigger tank in rear

[@nfa45]

Man I just came across your channel it came up as I was watchin vids on deleting my 2015 6.7 Powerstroke. I came to your most recent to ask what brushguard/bumper is on your truck? Looks super clean! Go America!!!

[@COLTSWAY]

My man! Appreciate it brother. It’s a RoadArmor stealth series. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@nfa45]

@COLTSWAY Hell yeah! Thanks man! 🇺🇸 🇺🇲

[@kevinmerrill8871]

Hey colt. I have a 21 Ford 6.7 powerstroke, after watching all your videos, maybe not all, but pretty damn close over a period of time of cours lol😂, my truck is a bit on the liberal side and it keeps throwing up liberal signs on my screen I need my truck to know what breathing and freedom feels like, any recommendations?

[@packingbone1953]

Big tank screw all the unnecessary tank switching shit. I’m looking for a single cab Bull Nose to build it into a replica of what my uncle had back when I was a kid. Bulletproof old trucks.

[@Kiss.MediaTv]

Id go with one Big tank and use that fuel selector switch for the pump.

[@COLTSWAY]

Love the switch idea. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@AxxcessDeclined69]

My man!! Yes sir, do away with the dual tanks, get the single large tank, do away with that damn fuel selector, you could replace it today and next week it would fail again..

[@COLTSWAY]

Nope. Haven’t had any issues at all. 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@AydenTaylor-v1o]

@@COLTSWAY cool man good to hear I have a 2.5 inch leveling kit but wanted a 3.5 and saw your setup which is way more affordable than the whole 3.5 kit lol

[@stevenbrooks1243]

What up Dick's!

[@COLTSWAY]

Best intro on the Tube! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@spikestubbs210]

Shitcan the 2 tanks and get one new larger one.

[@Kdiddy-y2b]

Bed tank and front tank with manual valve. Not that you give a shit.

[@tdotw77]

Yeah, you been mia for a min. I don't believe you need the 2 tank set-up anymore. That was for driving long distance w\out stopping, which youre not going to be doing. Id say, just put one bigger tank & delete the selector switch, its really not needed. You could also just put a fuel 'transfer' tank in the bed and just use that. Just a standard early superduty 7.3l frame mount bosch pump is more than enogh to supply the proper fuel to that thing, if that other pump isnt good. They're just an inline pump.👌🏻👌🏻🛠️🔧🔩😎🤔
