    Question Anyone ride Mountain Bikes?

    Wow. Respect! I was a real mountain bike geek in the early 90s, before i got my drivers license, and my first diesel 4x4! I still enjoy riding, though not as much as I would like to (and ought to :innocent). In fact, I still have two bikes of the make "Marin". One of them was a...

    Top End 100 MPH ??

    Sure, but I wouldn't wanna drive down the hwy at 100 mph and turn the key only to find out that the engine cranks because the starter inhibiter is only installed in newer trucks! I imagine it would make a mess out of the truck and possibly of me as well! :dizzy No,no! The bad a** truck is a...

    Top End 100 MPH ??

    Does anybody know if the turn-key trick would work on my ´00 7,3 PSD?

    Top End 100 MPH ??

    My ´00 7,3 does the same. 100 MPH is max. But I think that is pretty good for a vehicle this size. It isn't built for speed. But the interesting thing is, how fast do you go from zero to 100 MHP? I haven't measured it, but I'll bet its under 20 seconds.

    Prices are going up.

    :lmao Just saw an ad in a local paper: Somebody was selling a new 08 F-250 PSD Lariat priced at 120.000 dollars. Now thats expensive even in Denmark!

    Help Needed Momentary power loss - What is my Truck telling me?

    OK. Thanks. Now i know where to start. I did a bit of research and found out where the CPS is located (passenger side, front of engine, best reached from underneath of the vehicle) but what does the CPS do? Yes, sensing the position of the camshaft, I get that :sly, but why this influence on the...

    Really? How often did it happen to you? And did it get worse or more frequent?

    Help Needed Momentary power loss - What is my Truck telling me?

    Hello Sunny California! Ok, thanks. Ill try that. I don't know how old they are. They were on the truck when I bought it this January. I could check with the previous owner.

    Help Needed Momentary power loss - What is my Truck telling me?

    Over the past 500 miles or so I've had a strange experience with my stock Y2K F-250 4 times. When driving 40-50 mph and letting go of the throttle the "emission system" light comes on and power is gone. The engine is in idle as the truck is decelerating and there is no response whatsoever from...

    Think Our Fuel Is Expensive...........

    This week I saw the diesel cost break a new record @ 11,61 Danish Crowns a liter. That translates to $9,34/gal :eek: That gotta shake your world a bit ;) And yes, we have ok collective transportation in the cities, but I don't live in the city! So I just have to pay up! Thats why I run on SVO. I...

    best mileage from a powerstroke

    When I drive to work (25 miles each way, highway @ 50 mph and freeway @ 65 mph) I usually get around 18 mpg if I am a little carefull with the pedal. As an experiment I tried to drive at 40 / 55 mph, and be extremely carefull when accelerating. The result was 19,63 mpg!:tounge My SD is...

    Suspension lift to clear 38"s

    Wow, I downloaded your profile picture from Icons gallery before I knew it was your truck... That is a sweet ride indeed. I like the hood. Thanks for the advice.

    Suspension lift to clear 38"s

    Really sweet ride. I want something like that! I do go offroad, so no rubbing would definately be preferrable. I would want somethink that works as well as it looks.

    Suspension lift to clear 38"s

    I found the picture in the gallery on the ICON homepage, here ICON VEHICLE DYNAMICS It says for the lift to be a 4", but I don't know... I'm going for 6" like you recommend with 37" tires.

    Collection process,what do u use?

    As I run on new SVO - not recycled - I pick up a full 1000 liter tank. I then drive it home on the truck bed and move my garden pump on to the new tank and pump the contents over in a similar tank I keep in my garage (avoid placing it in the sun). Finally I disconnect the pump and put it back on...

    Suspension lift to clear 38"s

    Thanks, that was a supreme tip! I definately think, I will go with the 6"/37" solution. Anyway, allthough 8"/38" would be nice indeed, I don't want to run a truck that is too much in-your-face, because of local regulations. Heres a foto of my stock SD and a very similar SD that has a 4,5" lift...

    look at all the new interest in this section

    Well, it is a good thing if we can keep our hard-earned cash in our pockets (and away from OPEC-countries) and at the same time contribute to a cleaner environment, if you ask me:cool:

    Suspension lift to clear 38"s

    Ok, thanks. I suppose I'll give the 8" lift some futher thought then.

    What is fuel costing you?

    Here's a scare for ya: In Denmark, diesel prices ar due to hit 8,75 $/gal this weekend! :eek: Thats just crazy. We already have some of the worlds heaviest taxes, but still, the price has gone up by 20% in the last month or two. Good thing my daily driver runs on SVO!
