    CUCV Winter Fronts

    Ugh i rolled her!

    crawler.. that was my first idea.. I can't justify something like that... I need something that I can drive in the winter. It would be alot of fun to strip it of everything and 4 wheel with it! I think I might have a body already lined up.....saving it from a torch! (Keeping my fingers...

    What is a CDR valve?

    research i am not a diesel expert! but neer i can tell any bypass pressure causes oil mist to mix in fuel? Causing a higher head temp... could cause head gasket failure.... This theory was on a Ford forum....with a newer Diesel engine... An engine that might be picky to such things. The 6.2l...
