  1. i just changed the oil about 2 weeks ago. never really paid attention to the amount i just bought a 5 gallon jug and filled it up until it said full on the stick. i have the newer 97 stick on the engine now. hopefully all is well because its showing slightly above full on that stick
  2. guys my engine is a 1994, i hadn't really paid much attention to the dipstick until i was looking at my 97 parts tuck this am. the dipstick in my 1994 is part #3926194. it has a 1" rubber hose extending the dipstick tube an extra inch. my 97 dipstick #3923128 slides over the stock tube and creates a tight seal, the 94 kind of just butt's up against the rubber hose... not the best setup in my eyes. side by side comparison the 97 stick is about an inch longer, which might make sense as to why my 94 has a 1" rubber extension there to space it out? the safe zone on the 97 is also about double the length. it was showing full or just a hair under full on the 94, its showing a hair or 2 over full now that i have the 97 stick in it. i guess what im asking is, am i fine using the 97 stick?
  3. for those wondering. i ended up taking the tank outta my 97 parts truck. all seems to be working well. i used 3/8 line
  4. thanks for the replies. i have the parts truck there with the diesel fuel tank in it but the truck level with the hood with snow. are the diesel fuel lines the same size as gasser? (3/8 fuel, 5/16 return i think) i might just swap sending units, i will probably have to drop the tank to get the filler neck off the diesel anyhow. see how it works out i guess
  5. whats inside the tank? is it just the v10 shell without a pump. a hose to connect top of sending unit to bottom strainer thing?
  6. in the process of 12v swapping my 1995 v10. was hoping to keep the v10 fuel lines and tank. i know the v10 has a fuel pump in tank. what did the 12v have?
