    Sir, are you still doing transport work? My son is home on leave and is thinking about shipping a car to Fort Lewis, Wa. He is down in Enterprise at the moment but may drive it up here to Lake Martin before he leaves.

    Battery Cable

    If you are looking to upgrade your battery cables I ordered a complete set from custombatterycables.com and love them. Very heavy duty and much improved from stock. Granted, mine is an '01 with a 7.3 but I'm sure it would be an improvement from stock and may help narrow your issues down some.

    I agree! That's why I don't even think about it anymore! lol

    Question 2000 7.3 shutter when started

    I'm at 300k on my '01. My point is this: I drained the HPOP reservoir, ran it, sucked it out again, ran it, sucked it out again, ran it, sucked it out again....and so on and so on. Even with the fresh oil in the motor every single time I sucked out the old oil it was black. After a while it...

    Question 2000 7.3 shutter when started

    Just an observation......I tried playing the "get every drop of old oil out of the HPOP" one time.....it is a never-ending task and I gave up and drank beer...never cracked the plug open again.

    Poly driveshaft carrier bearing

    Nor I. Figured someone would've made one by now.

    Poly driveshaft carrier bearing

    Anyone know of a poly carrier bearing that is better than aftermarket rubber or OEM?

    2001 F250, 7.3 wont start

    ^ I would agree with the IDM being a possible factor. I replaced mine a few months ago thinking it may be the culprit. At 300k miles I figured it was a good time to replace it anyways.

    HPOP questions

    Get the car gauge pro app and or the torque app on your phone/tablet,etc. and buy one of these. Works amazingly well and gave me some much needed info on my truck a few months ago. The set up will work on other vehicles as well...

    2001 ZF6 wouldn't shift into gear

    Also, if your clutch fork is stock it is a known weak link as it is not as robust as an aftermarket one.

    2001 ZF6 wouldn't shift into gear

    I would agree with the advice above, including checking your pedal assembly under the dash. I have just shy of 300,000 on my ZF with zero issues.

    2001 F250, 7.3 wont start

    I would also check the under valve cover connections. Only takes a few minutes to remove them. I had secured both harnesses while doing an HPOP replacement a few years ago but the plastic had become brittle and my quarter mod had failed because of it. Zip ties fixed it and was back on the road a...

    '01 rough idle but starts now

    You are absolutely correct because as I sat here thinking about I remembered that I only pulled the drivers side cover and not the passenger side. Sure enough, the plastic keeper was actually broken off and laying in the head next to the injector and the harness was coming apart. Temp fix I put...

    '01 rough idle but starts now

    I've been trying to figure out what the issue is for a couple weeks now. 285k miles. Rough idle then wouldn't start. No buzz on injectors at all. Replaced CPS, ICP, IDM from Allsource computers. Cranked right up after new IDM install. Batteries are good. Oil level is full. Reservoir is full of...
