    7.3 light throttle = hesitation

    I haven't received anything about it.. Also my complaint is the complete opposite.. If I push down "lightly" it surges.... If I force it to WOT it will pause for a second or 2 and then take off..

    7.3 light throttle = hesitation

    Well this came up on a search I was doing for something else.. My truck is doing pretty much the same exact thing.. Slight throttle it hesitates/jerks/bucks.. WOT it will hesitate for just a hair then take off like a bat out of hell.. It's very frustrating.. I have noticed if I'm...

    Question Tricks to change the Water pump?

    Nice writeup.. It was exactly what I did.. I did rent the tools.. Came in very handy.. Plus side.. No more leaks or squeals from the water pump... Bad thing is after a bit there was a squealing.. Doesn't squeal when at idle, but only when on the gas.. If the belt is wet it goes away...

    2001 F250 4wd diesel front ubolt question

    That's what I thought. Just wanted to make sure.. Stupid pieced together lift kit on my truck. Thankfully after the spring replacement I'll have everything the way it should be.

    Pro Comp spring issues.

    I'm lucky to have a shop so close to me. I'd be pissed to have to pay for shipping and wait.. Well then again I'm kind of irritated that I have to change the springs in the first place, but oh well.. Good thing I've done this kind of thing a lot and am saving labor..

    Fabtech traction bar owners....pics?

    Man I wish I would have seen this before I installed my bar. I can take pics of it on the truck.. Well this weekend I can snap a pic of what it looks like on the side that bolts to the frame. (I have to unbolt it to swap out springs)

    Pro Comp spring issues.

    Well to save on money I called procomp and they said they will warranty the springs out. I called 4wp and they have a set of springs waiting for me. Guess I get to have a fun 2 hours on Saturday. :)
