Ok guys my truck had an electrical fire so I had to install a new wiring harness. When I was done the fuel gauge did not work. After some testing I realized that the power wire for gauges did not go to the icvr so I moved the terminal to a spot that would put power to the icvr. The gauge went to...

What's everyone up to? I think I finally have to get ready for spring and get all my landscaping equipment in order.

I hope everyone was ok throughout the storm. I still have no power and running on a generator that is having issues like an oil leak and a bad carburetor but feel lucky to have it. Gas in NJ is a real issue with lines a mile long for people waiting. Hopefully soon stuff will be normal again.

Well we haven't seen much snow yet (which will hopefully happen soon). I have to build belt covers for my 2 walk-behind mowers. One I completed today with some spare metal that has been laying in the basement for years now. I also have to take apart and paint both mowers. I will also be making a...

I just figured I would pass this little bit of info that I learned yesterday. I was browsing through the owner's manual for my truck which I never even bothered to look at before and found some good info about the heater. I've always had the heater aimed at the floor and my feet would sweat and...

Parting out F350 crewcab. Body in good shape. Rust underneath from snow plowing. Interior in good shape. 460 big block but engine siezed after have a rod knock. Has good tires, possibily 31s or 33's but would have to check on that. Going to the junkyard on Wed. so if anyone wants anything let me...

Ok I started discussing this in the pwt but I figured I would just make my own thread for this.I went and picked up the wheels today and the center hole measured 3 3/8" like Duncan said. The wheels are in good shape and hopefully they will fit my truck. Currently I have 15x8 wheels with...

If I only had the room to bring it home...Apparently it looks like it ran when it went to the junkyard. No rust except one cab corner and that looks fairly easy to fix. If I had the room and the money I would fix it.

Ok here's the deal. I do not drive my truck much lately except to move it from one side of the street to the other with the exception of the occasional drive. Today I towed a trailer and it was running fine for most of the trip. It is about 102 degrees or so with the heat index and temp. climbed...

Hey guys there is a car show at the Union Elks on October 10th. It helps raise money for special children. It is a good time. I won't really say this is a get together because I'll probably be in the member's bar most of the time :rofl2:. But if anyone is looking for something to do I figured...

I figured I would start this thread in case any of you have some stuff you want to sell.Here is my CL ad for a 4x8 trailer I want to get rid of.http://cnj.craigslist.org/grd/1891641186.html

Ok so now that I'm trying to fix some little annoying issues with my truck I figure I might as well work on the dash lights. When I first got the truck they all worked fine. Then one side would light up while the other won't. It will go back and forth randomly to which side works. Someone...

Ok guys is anyone interested in a get together? Since we haven't had much participation in the chapter maybe this will be a good idea to get the chapter going and more fun. We will try to have it in a location as close as possible for everyone interested since gas prices will probably be high...

Ok guys give me your suggestions because I've been living with this issue for about 4 years or so. When I'm driving at slower speeds mainly I get a slight stumbling around 2200rpms or so. If I slow down or speed up it usually goes away. It isn't a huge deal just slightly annoying and I figure it...

Day 1:Unfortunately there was only 4 trucks there and they were mostly stripped of anything good. I got two underhood lights and the under dash light kit.The only thing of interest I did come across were near-mint condition rear jump seats out of a supercab. They look like they were never...

Since no one posts much in the chapter unfortunately I will just make one thread instead of doing it monthly. I hope everyone is doing alright.

Hey guys I don't know if anyone on here is looking to adopt a dog or anything but I'll post this here because it is a really good dog. It is currently in the kennel in Linden and was supposed to be put down this morning, but they will hold her until tomorrow night if someone wants her. Just...

Sorry I started this month a little late. I've been pretty busy lately. The snow finally melted for the most part. I hope it snows again soon!

Hey guys. 1st day of Feb. and it's a cold one! Lets post up and make this a fun chapter.

Hey everyone. How are you all doing? Very cold out this week.

Guys I'm working on a 1994 Lincoln town car that went from great heat to no heat in one day. I found the waterpump to be leaking so I changed that as well as the thermostat and that did not cure the problem. My next idea was to change the heater control valve. Alldata has it listed as thermal...

8 inches or so of snow in my area that fell last night and this morning.Not afraid to let my truck do some work out in the snow...

Guys we finally got a NJ chapter up. Please send your requests to join so we can try and get this going.

I am getting rid of my headers due to the motor issues I posted about before and going with manifolds. The front pipes will be 2" diameter at the manifold. Should I just run 2" exhaust all the way back or make it 2 1/4" after the mainfold flanges? I'm running the exhaust out the side after the...

Is anyone interested in starting a NJ chapter or maybe combining NJ and DE or something like that since it doesn't look like there currently is one? :)

Time to say good bye to "Old Smokey"!I stayed after work on Saturday for 3 hours. I removed the transmission, the exhaust, headers, and any wiring, etc. Tomorrow I will have the egine out and remove what needs to go on the new engine. I would have had the engine out yesterday, but forgot to...

I will be doing that relay conversion to run the headlights off relays and was just wondering what size fuse to use. 20amp like the relays or smaller? Thanks.

I just wanted to show off my SCS model I just got off Ebay. It came put together. I wish it was not put together but did come in original box. So here are some pictures along with my Super Duty model and trailer. Super Duty and trailer are metal.

I am ditching my long tube headers for stock shorty headers off of a Lincoln Mark VII. I'm tired of blowing out header gaskets. The Lincoln headers have nice flanges and should work with studs so they won't come loose. What size studs will I need? I just want to have all the studs available when...
