[scapegoat32]

hey guys, just wondering if anybody has done this mod to a 2006 f350 5.4 gas. the only wire I have is the blue/ white, but that just seems to be for the diesels. Can someone help . thanks, mike

It is a diesel thing as far as I know.

The service truck @ work is F350 5.4L gas and it revs up with a switch in the floor(aftermarket) on a panel, and the the park brake applied. I'm not sure what the switch hooks to, I'll try to figure it out.

Strokerpower, it looks real good and for sure cheaper than the upfitter switchers.
Where are you from? Let us know.

I see that you are from MO. I was hoping that you could make the Rally
Next weekend at Caddo Mills, TX. We all ways have a good time there.
There are a bunch of good fokes on here.

The thing I find with using the BCP just for idleing up is that it will rev up way higher than 1200 on start up. I have a volt meter wired in my gauges, and there's sure not much more than 12 V there for the first minute or so after start up. If you run BCP right away, the idle tends to get up to 1400+ RPMs pretty quickly. I use the PTO switch, and it keeps it at 1200. But is the torque converter locking up counter productive when you are trying to let the truck warm up?

I use the BCP all the time, works wonders trying to boost dead batteries, especially on powerstrokes, tractors, and irrigation motors.

I have a 6.0 2006 lariat and it is a all orange wire. Same location but just orange. There was actually a factory tag that is wrapped around this small bundle of dead end wires and it says it right on there O-PTO a bunch of other ones like a ground a rpm and someothers. Total of 11 wires/ options. This is a must upgrade and an easy one at that. Thanks guys.
