    Steering Box Replacement

    Can anyone provide me with the steps necessary for replacing the steering gear box in a 02 7.3L F250? My steering is LOOSE and I have already checked ball joints, pittman arm, etc, & tried tightening the allen screw on the top of the box. Thanks!

    Starting Problems in the Morning

    10-4 on replacing the fuel filters. Should I also replace the o-ring/gasket that seals the fuel filter that sits on top of the engine block?

    AC Air Mix Damper Motor Issue?

    There is no issue with it only running in defrost mode. I can get it to blow from the floor or from the console vents. There is no issue with that control, but I will not rule out a bad vacuum pump/line.

    Starting Problems in the Morning

    I have a 2002 7.3L SuperDuty F250 with nearly 300k miles. Sometimes in the mornings, or if I haven't driven the truck in a day or two, about two seconds after I start the truck, the engine will sputter and die. On the second start attempt it will start a little rough, but then after about 5-8...

    Air Filter Light

    The air filter indicator light turned on in my 7.3L 2002 SuperDuty two weeks ago. I changed the air filter with a K&N Air Filter. The indicator light is still on! Do I need to reset the indicator?

    Loud Whine in 7.3L SD

    I topped it off with just a little bit of fluid and the whine isn't as bad... Hopefully the pump isn't about to go..

    Truck won't start, Fuel pump problems?

    Good idea, thanks. I was working on the truck when I locked my only set of keys inside =[ I will try this trick after the locksmith arrives.

    Braking and fuel mileage

    The more you brake the more you will need to accelerate. If you drive one mile without stopping it will take way less fuel than if you have to stop and accelerate 10 times. All of the energy produced by your engine and the intertia of your moving vehicle is stopped (wasted) when you stop with...
