    89 d150 runninag and starting probs

    Do you have a filter going from your break boost to your carb? Mine got clogged. Replaced filter and she runs like a top!

    How high can I go?

    I have a 86 w150. Could I do a 4" suspension lift without changing driveshafts or anything else?

    Can't get past 50mph

    The linkage is good. All where it's supposed to be, and moves how it's supposed to move!

    Can't get past 50mph

    It's shifting weird now. I can floor it, and the rpms will go up, but won't shift until I let off the throttle. Once I hit 45-50 I can hold the accelerator down and nothing happens. This is all of the sudden! She had been getting hotter than normal but driving fine!

    Can't get past 50mph

    I don't know what's going on but all of the sudden my truck doesn't want to go past 45-50mph! Could it be a timing issue? Also I've noticed she seems to be running hotter than normal.

    AC conversion

    Has anyone done a AC conversion? I have a 86 W150 with a 318. I've been thinking about redoing my ac system because the one I have isn't working right now. I've read on other forums where people just pump it down and refill with 134. I don't plan on doing that because the oils don't mix...

    Engine trouble!

    You can see the hose starts where my speedo cable goes t's into the break booster, and plugs in the rear of the carb.

    Engine trouble!

    No. It comes off the break booster. The part name for the filter is break booster filter. It attaches to the back of my carb, and the pcv is on the other side.

    Weak spark 84 d100 slant 6 after distributor change

    How's your ignition coil? I had the same issue. I replaced the coil and that took care of it. If it's not your coil it does sound like the ground to your chassis.

    Rear Wheel Well Rust

    Fenders www.rockauto.com they have every part your would need! They even have the section on the bed/wheel well on there. Al the body shop would do is cut out the bad area, and weld the new section in. The prices are amazing. Plus shipping is fast! I buy 99% of my stuff from rock auto! That's...

    Rear Wheel Well Rust

    I'm not sure about where you live, but Alabama that's $500-$800. That's if you want them to do only those spots. It will also depend on how far up the metal is weakened from the rust. You could probably do most of it yourself, and take her to get her sprayed over to blend the paint.

    Engine trouble!

    Still having issues She's almost there, but not quite! She bogs at low throttle, but will kick up if I mash it. However she doesn't have the power when I mash it that she did have! She also is nearly silent in park. I had the timing checked. I don't know what's going on!

    Sparks in my carb!?!?!?

    Well I posted about my engine trouble earlier. Last night I removed my air cleaner and saw sparks flying around inside my carb! How is this possible? She idles fine in park or in gear, but when I go to take off she stalls out and dies! I have new plugs, new spark plug wires, new cap/rotor, new...

    Engine trouble!

    I cleaned the carb really well. I believe I have a charcoal filter by my tank. I cleaned black granular pieces from every crack. Should I replace my entire fuel line, and get rid of that filter? I've already got one befor the carb.

    A/c help!!!!

    1986 Dodge W150. When I turn my ac on I can hear it engage, but it stops right after that. I did some looking and it appears there are vacuum lines under the dash that the male female plugs disentigrated on. So the vac lines are just hanging out! I was wondering if anyone had a pic or knew which...

    Engine trouble!

    My 86 W150 can be a pain to start. She normally won't fire on the first try. From time to time she'd cut out and die when I came to a stop or went to speed up. I'd smell gas, and she'd be flooded out big time! It would take her a wile to start after that. Well she did it worse than ever last...

    Muffler chop?

    I also read where you said to run 15w40 to help clean the engine. I live in Alabama where it stays pretty warm. How often and how long should I run that oil to help clean my engine out?
