    note ABS light on - not rear sensor

    bomberman - I would pay the shop , unless you can trace which sensor it is , You also have to pull the brakes apart to get to the sensor .

    note ABS light on - not rear sensor

    Well I thought I might luck out on replacing the rear ABS sensor 39K miles. It was the LH front sensor 2 Hrs labor and 60 for the sensor. On the rear sensor , had to pry mine out , and had to sand the inside of the rusty housing to get the new one in without ripping the o-ring. Just...

    HPOP removal 2005 6.0L F-250

    Nice pictures alex - my 06 had the same problem , but would not start when hot. Looks like all the 6.0's should have this done under a factory recall , it's getting to be a well known factory defect.

    6 oh discussion

    I'm still learning , but head gasket don't seem to be a problem on stock 6.0 motors. 1 common problem is owners not reading the owners manual . Egr valve cleaning should be a service at 30K or less , and ford should give a big discount on all the known updates that could make these trucks...

    06 - 33K - no start - oil rail plug ?

    I'm thinking if it won't restart in the drive through write up area they will have to deal with it, maybe the egr harness will fall off for a code. My problem is I don't drive the truck everyday , thought the egr cleaning fixed it but no luck . It always restarted after 1 hour until today...

    06 - 33K - no start - oil rail plug ?

    thanks atk - dealer said , they can't fix it if its running good , F I C M was replaced after it would hardly run after a fuel filter change back in May. I'm hoping it will stay in the no start mode , so I can tow it in to the dealer. Such a great truck when there running right .
