    tranny or t case

    transfer case Service manager said the T case was completely shot and not worth the rebuild. they requested a replacement unit and FORD had to send a rep to confirm that the tech was correct in his diagnosis. They agreed and a new one is on the way. I dont understand how this happened, its...

    tranny or t case

    dealer said the T-case is bad. It is covered by the extended power train warranty. 55k and t-case blows up, unacceptable in this day and age. If it was not for the 100k coverage on the engine I would be lookng at a new truck.

    front axle question

    they need the spline count, I think a dana 44 has a 30 spline count on the inner shaft not sure what the outer stub shaft is on the fords. U loint size should be the same unless the dana 50 uses the dana 60 components.

    I called the dealer, told them what is said in the warranty booklet I have that came with the truck. They called back and said i was right and they now owed me the 100 bucks. I wonder how many people get screwed by that? When I asked about that when I picked up the truck with the new...

    Question back up camera reverse light wiring

    Thanks for the input on the use of the trailer connector, I would like to keep the connection and wiring in the cab if possible. That's why I was looking for the reverse wire location coming off the steering column

    Rough idle

    This morning 18 degrees, started without any issue. Sounded great aand had power right away. The noise that I usually hear when wait for the glow plugs to warm is different. The new FCIM and re flash makes a huge difference. Good luck guys

    Rough idle

    Took it to the local dealer, They said there was a stored code and FICM was the issue. They replaced it under warranty. I will let you guys know how it goes thanks.

    Rough idle

    thanks for the excellent theoretical breakdwon of the injector system. oil viscosity may be a issue here. I wonder if i should remove the 2 wk old 15/w40 oil and drop in some rotella syn/blend and see what happens? What effect does a reflash have on the overall engine performance? this...
