water meth will it work with my setup
I bought a slightly messed up 99 power stroke with lots of extras one is a brand new stage three snow performance water meth kit I am just fixing and selling the truck thinking about putting the water meth kit on my diesel in my sig would I just tap into my intake horn for the injectors and is there anything else I need to do. Or is it worth it they run 650 to 700 from what I have found and a guy is interested in buying it for 500

I would sell it personally but you can use it on your rig with now problems.
|
Do you tow alot with that '89? W/M wil give you alot more EGT headroom for those injectors if you do.
|
Yes I tow a lot truck is not used except for towing and stuff I drive a car everywhere else. What is the big difference from stage 1 to 3 Do I need stage 3? is it too much for me would I be better off selling it and getting stage 1? I have looked into water meth but don't know jack about it. and how much temp would it knock off. Last time I towed a load of cows I was able to go 65 on flat land and 55 on mild hills and on some serious hills 3rd gear just because I don't like to run it over 1k degrees steady.

I don't know much about the different vendor's kits because I build my own W/M systems from various parts. Probably more injectors and a bigger tank. It will give you at least 100 degrees lower EGT on average, depending on how it is set up, your fueling, turbo, etc. You need a big tank if you use it for controlling towing EGT, 5 gal minimum. I have 5 gal tanks in both my trucks.
|
Well than I'll go off subject what do you use to build them do put your own pump systems and everything together. I was looking at getting some systems that only have pump lines and injectors they were around 200 on ebay I guess you would have to put the bigger tank in your bed or something.

The 200psi pumps can be found on eBay for under $100. Decent progressive controller (needed for towing) will run $150. $30 for a check valve, tank for $25 (generator tanks, fit in toolbox), $100 worth of injectors and fittings at McMaster-Carr and a few bucks for polyethylene tubing and wire from Ace Hardware. Get a couple fuse holders at Walmart on your way home.
Put it all together and you have a better system for maybe half the price vendors charge for their top end kits. Basically all you're doing with the vendor kits is paying somebody $300 to gather up all that stuff, put it in one box and sell it to you. It's not likely all the top-grade high-quality stuff, either - plastic fittings, cheap nozzles, small gauge wire, etc. |
Maybe I'll look into in I'm selling the kit for 450 tonight. it had the baby tank was the cheaper version. I already got a five gallon tank may put a system together to see how it works. with the money I make.

So I'm pretty much building my own setup got some stuff on order. ANd I found a descent deal local on washer fluid concentrate. contents say methyl alocohol. Is that what I need? just mix it 50/50 or so
|
Yep, that's the stuff. :tu:
