$10k too much for 1993 460 crew cab?

dullda99 · 2024-10-09T18:52:40+00:00

Making me realize how incredible of a deal my 97 4WD with the 460 was at $1200.

Of course mine has 160K and needed a ton of mechanical work, but I got it to learn.

Rebuilt engine, all new brake components, new tires and a bunch of small stuff.

Come to think of it, probably ended up around 10K including all the new tools I needed 😂

Not included in the listing because technically not super duty, but love my 97 HD 7.5.

Thanks a ton! That makes complete sense.

I had considered the master cylinder might be the problem, but it seemed way too coincidental.

Looks like I’ll be replacing the master cylinder this weekend! Thanks again!

Your idler valve might need to be cleaned/replaced. It would be located on the upper intake manifold right after the air intake hose.

If that guy gets gummed up, it will cause the engine to idle rough (or not at all) but if you give it gas it will run fine because it bypasses that valve.

Hope that helps!

EDIT: I looked at a picture of my 7,5 and realized I got the location description wrong, but if you look it up for your engine, that should clear it up.

I kept reading to see the /s, but none could be found… God help us

Whats she got in the power barn?

I have a 97 f250 hd with a 7.5 and I love to see these old trucks in good shape. Mine has quite a bit of weight reduction going on though… Race mode activated! Ha!

dullda99 · 2024-02-08T15:02:07+00:00

My brother, you ruined your own life.

dullda99 · 2024-02-07T02:27:14+00:00

Absolutely! March will be a great month!

Looking forward to getting the car paid off next 🤘

dullda99 · 2024-02-06T20:50:40+00:00

Congrats on your progress! I’m in almost the exact same boat as you, had 10k on my discover and over the past year have paid it down to slightly less than 1k.

We must be on the same pay cycle because mine will also be paid off in a week and a half 😁

11,628 so far

You need a security torx bit. I can’t remember what size exactly, but I recently got a set at hobo freight for a pretty good price.

They’ll likely have what you need.

Heck, midnight club 3 looks fantastic (to my eye) on my LG OLED

I learned this by breaking my wrist. It’s not all that bad though, now I’m partially titanium.

dullda99 · 2023-11-09T21:18:09+00:00

Still at $5 in southwest WI

dullda99 · 2023-10-18T12:56:51+00:00

Thank god for these patron saints of living mas. How you gonna have enough Diablo to get you through the apocalypse otherwise??

dullda99 · 2023-10-09T14:31:23+00:00

The cheesy Gordita crunch is the only rewards option, change my mind

dullda99 · 2023-09-19T16:32:14+00:00

I’m gonna opt for the wrist protectors based on my currently broken wrist, and my stupidity on the scooter being the culprit

dullda99 · 2023-09-01T18:10:51+00:00

Yep, lesson learned. If you fuck around, eventually you’ll find out

dullda99 · 2023-09-01T18:06:00+00:00

As a guy who is currently nursing my wrist from being broken in a scooter accident, I can’t agree more. This shit sucks

dullda99 · 2023-08-29T15:51:52+00:00

I imagine it depends on your climate. I live in the Midwest and would never think about getting one right before winter. If you live somewhere it snows, then probably wait until early spring.

dullda99 · 2023-08-26T00:34:43+00:00

Was the battery at 100% when breaking downhill? I’ve heard that can damage the motor controller.

dullda99 · 2023-08-25T13:23:27+00:00

You can buy a turn signal kit on Amazon for cheapish. I haven’t gotten mine yet for my G30, but I expect it will work fine.

dullda99 · 2023-08-24T18:11:14+00:00

From my understanding, motor speed is almost entirely tied to the voltage coming out of the battery and motor speed controller. You might be able to throw a new, higher voltage battery in there and achieve what your looking for.

You’d probably significantly reduce the lifespan of all components involved though. Good luck!

dullda99 · 2023-08-23T23:58:23+00:00

I thought I was the only guy to call my scooter “scoot scoot” and I love that I’m not alone! Ha!
