that ticking sound from the front of your engine compartment when cold is the fan clutch.

@averageu2 Actually it turned out to be the serp tensioner arm. About half of the bearings had fallen out!

does any body know the fuel tank capacity. 1991 350sd turbo diesel?

[jenstagner]

21 gallons, but i can put in 22

[compu85]

If you are still looking for one I have a spare...

[youtoobe169]

That comment never came through as being for me, but I assume it is.. are you talking about a manifold flex pipe?

[youtoobe169]

hey how much do you know about working on these engines?

[dieselscience]

Do you have trouble with yours?

[youtoobe169]

Couple minor issues - leaking fuel from either an injector or a line, going to replace both this weekend, and the manifold flex pipe is cracked. Not sure if I can tackle that job or not. Overall I love the car though!

IF you need injector nozzles (I also install) PM me or:

[youtoobe169]

i just put an injector in and it solved my leak problem, i was pretty happy about that but i do need a manifold flex pipe, can you help with that? where are you located?

[dieselscience]

I'm in NC. Flex pipes are available outside the dealerships. Not always a good idea to go used on some parts.

[jenstagner]

it's the rubber lines. easy to replace. get them from Better Wrench in chapel hill

[compu85]

The motor was cold, but it was 60* outside.
