Well, as it turns out...the '97 rear door window wont roll down so I don't even think I can get that one out. The '94 door window wouldn't roll down either, but I found a few broken wires at the door jam and the harness was unplugged. Spliced the broken wires back together and plugged the...
Well, I can get a local shop to come out and put a new one in for 110 bucks installed, but I don't have the money for that right now. That is why I had posted here to see if I could get some help from someone who has done this before. Thanks for the info though about if they were the same fit...
Hey guys, I currently have a 94 1/2 PSD F350, CC with power windows. I have a 97 exact same f350 that I am gonna sell as junk. I need to swap out the pass. rear door window from the 97 to the 94. Is this the same window on both and can I do it without breakage??? Heh, I somehow can see me...
Where and how can I upload pictures to my album? I tried and the page reloaded with " We'll be right back..."
I would like to get some pics into my album so that I can try and sell my truck for parts.
Thanks, Daniel
Thanks Dave. I wondered about that as well. I have looked at the parts list sticky and I think if I can just go with a stock replacement CPS I would be happy.
If anyone else wants to chime in, your welcome to.
Thanks
First off, I have searched the forums this morning for about 2 hours and haven't found anything related to my problem so I wanted to ask for help here.
In the last 6 months, my truck has started eating CPS's again. I had happen a few years ago also. I had two used ones on hand and had...
Well I had a chance to hook up a simple code reader and it didn't find any codes and gave a pass for codes. So I had been doing research about it and decided to check the schraeder valve to make sure it was geting fuel through the FPR and it was. Then I decided to check out the IDM since my...
Guys, this truck does not like me! 2 days ago, I left my cousins house and got about a minute down the road in the rain and it fell on its face. It lunged once, then just didn't have any power. I put it in neutral and watched the rpm's drop with no response from the throttle. It died and...
Well, I found the short. Someone in the past had caved in a spot on the roof just above the 3rd brake light and pinched the 3 wires going to it. The green one was the one that had melted in the harness so I had to trace it up to that light. Needless to say, I have had a fun time today...
I appreciate it. My Dad has shop manuals for 95-96 and he was able to decipher the color codes and I think I may just have to suck it up and rewire the 3rd brake light. That is where the direct short is coming from. The bulb burnt out (probably years ago) and was never replaced. So it was...
Help! I have had a fun time with this truck. Now I have another chapter in my list of problems.
Monday morning, I noticed the ABS light flashing on the dash. Didn't think anything major was wrong but wanted to find out what it was. Called my cousin for his opinion and he asked me if I...
My fuel lines came in on Wed., and it poured and stormed all day! So, on Thursday I was able to get the fuel lines replaced and finally have my truck running like a champ!:thumbs
The 2 fuel lines weren't bad to change, other than having to take half the front off the motor to get to the...
95-97 OBS trucks had the "lift pump" as they were commonly called as well, on top of the motor in the valley. There isn't an electric fuel pump in the tank(s) that I know of.
When I replaced one of my tanks on my 95'(totaled), there was a "sending unit" in the tank that had a pickup tube...
I used the stock pump, it didn't seem to restrict flow( I drive my trucks like I stole 'em!), and I didn't have that filter setup on the truck long enough to determine a time frame of how long before the filter had to be changed.(that truck got totaled for me).
Other than not using it long...
Found the inline filter setup!!
I had to search my old posts but I found it! Tailgunner actually helped me out on this one. Here is the post:
"It is mounted on the outside frame rail with enough washers stacked to stand off the mounting bracket enough where the parking brake cable passes...
Yeah, that is what I want to do to this truck: install an extra in-line filter. I will have to research for more info because I had done that to my red 95 for about $95 and all parts were from napa. It worked slick, still had full flow and the filter also had a petcock on the bottom for...
Truck up and running!!
Well, after 5 days and headaches, I finally found the problem. I was tracing a fuel problem and started with the tanks. The supply wasn't restricted from the tanks so I moved under the hood. Disassembled the FPR and fuel bowl and bullseye! The FPR screen was 100%...
Update
I had a very good and experienced PSD mechanic come over last night and hook up his $3,000 scanner (snap-on) to my truck. Everything checked out good, no injector codes, buzz test passed on all 8, and even oil pressure is awesome on cranking. He tried a few other tests like trying to...
Well, the HPOP is full. I went through all the fuses, they are all good. I pulled the passenger side valve cover(that took 2 hours-bahhh) and the harnesses don't look burnt, and there are only 2 main harnesses under 1 valve cover on my truck. Both harnesses didn't look or feel loose either...
Yeah in fact I had unplugged the icp and tried that. It still wouldn't start. I am working on trying to get someone to come over with a scanner and read the codes. Getting the codes would definitely be a help though.
Thanks, Daniel
Well, I went and bought a new CPS and put it in this afternoon. It still took about 5 minutes of starting fluid and cranking but I got it running. It still has a miss in it though. I managed to get it up into the driveway on concrete and it was straining to get that far. It finally died so I...
Well guys, I will have to give that a try if I can come up with the money. I was hoping for info about the self-made harness shims for the uvc harnesses. I am going to check all this out when it quits raining and snowing.
Thanks, Daniel
Thought of that also. Kind of ruled it out with other symptoms going on. I will give that one some thought, but also may have to try other options since I am out of money and used my last spare on my other truck that got totalled. By the way, where do you get one for 28 bucks? Last I knew...
Hey guys, I have already read through a boat-load of the posts and have come to a couple possible solutions for my problem. I have read about the uvc harnesses getting weak and becoming disconnected or trying to become disconnected. I also read about someone making his own shims to fix this...
