Howdy, I'm new on here, And need some help. I have a 94 12V 2wd with a 5 Speed, It only has 146,000 Miles on it, but It has been sitting since early 09, I was wondering what all it would need, Ive gotten it to crank over slowly on a charger, but now Im worried I may have clogged the injectors with the nasty old varnishy fuel (you can keep the stupid remarks to yourselves.) All I can figure is the obvious things, gaskets, all the fluids, and a good scrubbing. When it was parked all that was wrong with it was a cracked windshield and some foggy headlights. This truck was my late father's baby.

 

What you stated should about cover it. I would try to get that old diesel out of the tank and fuel lines and run some injector cleaner with fresh fuel.

 

replace the old fuel, new filters and drag it down the road!

 

get a buddy and hook to it with another truck.

 

I dont know of what significance it is, but its starting leaking oil from the blow-by tube, Should I be worried about this? This truck has been started twice since 09.

 

i wouldnt be horribly worried. let it sit and run for a good long while the blow by will most likely settle down.

 

Condensation is all your seeing with that long of inactivity. As said before no concern until its ran a few hours and its still occurring, even then unless its heavy its of no concern

I think its worth asking if anybody has a spare 8-foot 94-02 dodge bed? This truck has no bed on it at the moment.

And what do you guys think, keep it as a dually? or go back to SRW? The truck started life as a 3/4 ton, we completely converted it into more than a 1 ton dually. (9 leafs plus 3 overloads and airbags.) I guess it really depends on what bed I find.
