    Replace injector bodies, or just the tips???

    My 07 5. 9 is taking longer crank times mostly when the engine is already warm. Sometimes in the morning on the first start it takes longer to crank as well.

    Rough Idle on Startup

    Hey guys, I just bought an 07 with the 5. 9 in it. It has right at 78,000 miles on it and is bone stock. When I first start it in the morning it seems to have a rough idle. Once it warms up it purrs like a kitten. It only does it when its cold though. Its not real bad or anything but it is...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Oil Question...

    Had a buddy tell me to use lucas 5w-40 high tbn. He said the high tbn is made for flat tappet cams which are in our trucks and the tbn helps lubricate and protect the cam better than other oils. What is your input?

Also what is the most difficult and time consuming part of the conversion and, what, if any pointers you guys can give me that have done the swap. Im not the mechanic just the other set of hands, but...
