Had a filter malfunction couple weeks ago on my Airdog 150. The petcock started leaking. I am guess there might been water in the bottom and it froze cause the petcock to break.

I found replacements in stock on line and rushed ordered. Problem solved.

During all this I found few replacements that will work.

Baldwin BF1275 Heavy Duty Diesel Fuel Spin-On Filter (same as airdog WS filter)

Fleetguard Fuel Filter Mfr Part #: FF5617

Fleetguard Water Separator Mfr Part #: FG-FS19768

Might already be known but I thought post it here for more reference locations.

Peace

Well it been a while since i have been on here.

Hope everyone is doing well and the trucks are still running.

My truck has been down since november. Was going to rebuild the engine but the machine top found multiple heat cracks and bad valve guids.
So no im in the process on installing a engine my neighbor had from a wreacked truck. Loads of fun.


LETS TRY AND GET THIS THREAD GOING AGAIN.

I'm still alive, just busy working 50-60 hours a week. Sucks having no free time but the money is good and is letting me get stuff ordered for the pulling truck which might finally get done this year.

100% new new engine, only thing left from the drivetrain is the t-case and front axle, its getting new body parts and paint, custom weight box, gutted interior with sheetmetal dash etc. still have alot of work to do, but down to the final stretch when it comes to buying parts.

Got a bump in the way tho...trans went out of my mega cab at 249,850 miles this week...so $2200 later I will have a built transmission ready to tow anything I want.

Lookin good!
I've been busy working, bought a project boat and have been busy restoring it. Needs lots of TLC but when it's done it will be a great fishing boat. 87 Renken 2288, 23' cuddly cabin 4.3 OMC IB/OB. There's lots of Teake on it that needs sanded and oiled.

Just workin' and findin' a new job as my current one SUCKS! Got the offer and accepted it so mid-april new outlook!!! Now just have to break the bad news to the current one! My daughter is keeping the truck going as I've been raggin' the little Honda! Did put some new tires on this year...but that is all I've done - oh and fix the front speakers - have them so long they rotted out!

Good luck on the new job. I know how ya feel. Working night at this current job SUCKs.



Well on another note. My Airdog II finally went up. Ordered a Fass 150.

This thread hasn't been updated recently, so I thought I would post an update.

My mega cab is up to 265k miles now, had to put 08.5+ steering upgrade on it since all the tie rods were shot.

The pulling truck ran again this week for the first time in 4.5 years. I've poured a ton of money and time into it and to finally hear it run again was a great feeling. There is still a ton of work to do on the truck to be ready to pull, but its slowly getting there.

First start video


Another video of it running after it got some heat in the cylinders

I pulled the trans last night and it's going in my truck.
