used engines

    Hello out there !       Not to sure if this is the right place for this or not but here goes. I have two (2) SD 33 engines  that I have no use for and was wondering if anyone out there could use them. One is disassembled for rebuild the other is still together. Both seam to be missing their fuel lines but otherwise are all there.  Was hopeing to get a little for them,but more than that wanted them put to good use rather than going for scrap. Any interest please give a shout. Thanks. Jim…

See the filter list for the correct filter numbers. copied below are documents with past communications with WIX, and a bulletin showing the correct…

Fuel Filter

Anyone in the Houston area know where I can find a fuel filter for my 78 Scout?  ordered on on scout parts and they waited 5 days to tell me it will take 10 days to get one in.

Yesterday I finally made the big decision, one had to go: a 1999 F250 Super-duty 4wd with the 6.8 V10, or my 77 Scout with an SD33T. Last summer I was going to get rid of the Scout, and did all the things it needed to get a good…
