    Torque Converter question.............

    I drove a 2003 7.3 PSD Friday and was impressed with the way the torque converter felt. This was a stock truck. The forward motion in relation to engine speed was much better than my 99.5. I think my truck has always driven this way which is why I put the T/C lock up switch on it almost...

    Trouble geting started

    I am assuming you purged the cylinders of oil and it is not hydra locked..............bad ju-ju. Get a battery charger on the batteries. Just because it sounds like it is turning over ok does not mean the pcm has enough juice to allow it to fire. Crank for 15-20 seconds.........then let the...

    4 miles to empty

    Sounds like she sucked some air. You may have been closer to "borrowed time" than you thought. Air intrusion could have occurred just before or during your 5gal refill. Last time mine surged like that was when I forgot to prime the secondary fuel filter when I changed it. Tbar
