Well I don't think there is a difference bit I have read that the Hercules is mote desirable over the White and continental but who knows.
If it whistles it's a c turbo. My D whistles a little now buy nothing like a c turbo does.
I think I'm going to turn it up a bit more yet. I don't have many hills around and I don't mind "driving" the truck around the bumped up fuel. From all the research I've done it sounds like 1200 to 1250 for about 20 seconds is ok and 1300 being the absolute max.
It might be it has a what looks like a factory seal on the nut though. And from reading it sounds like 3/16" of threads stick out I have about that measuring it. Maybe it is turned up the motor was rebuilt in 97 and is a Hercules LDT 465 1D. I was thinking about putting a whistler on it but I...
Yeah i was in your spot about a month ago..... trying to figure out what the **** guys were talking about since I couldn't look at my truck cause I didn't have it yet. Once you get one you'll understand.
Idk on the lights. Idk if it was cold or shaking from the truck. I left for work they were...
I've been searching tm's for the past hour and I cannot figure out what this hose is for. It comes off a pretty hefty elbow in the front of the block and runs into the firewall. I have a cut in the outer casing and want to replace it but it has a special fitting crimped on the end out at the...

Man you have to come over some weekend..... it was easy but I'm a shade tree mechanic by nature lol. My dad was a mechanic for 20 yrs and I did truck tires for 13yrs.
All in all I started at 8 this morning. This is what i did.
Primary and secondary fuel filters
All new injector return lines...
Mine doesn't slobber that bad at all there is a little spot and that's it.
Hey skinny pm your address and I'll send you a spare motor I have..... it doesn't work and I can't figure out why but the parts are good. You need the shaft that runs through to the wiper arm?
So i bypassed the fdc today and installed my pyro and boost gauge and let me tell you night and day difference. I can't believe how much better the truck runs. I didn't even bump the fuel up yet but I already think someone did or it is up from factory cause its still wired. The bypass was supper...
Today was a good day was almost 55° out today and I got a lot done. All new fuel filters and the old ones weren't that bad. Then I bypassed the fdc and ran new return lines from the injectors and completely removed all fuel lines to the flame heater. To do that you need 2-1/8 npt pipe plugs and...
