    ebv valve mod

    no need to wire it open unless you're having problems with it right now. simply unplugging it will keep it from closing. What you are describing has been done many times before with no ill effects.

    ts chip

    stock programs on the TS Chip will be about the same except the extreme will give you a bit more power & smoke. The real benefit of the TS style chips is that you can get a prgrammer like tony wildman, power hungry performance, Diesel innovations, to list a few to reflash the chip with programs...

    fuel filter light

    is it a fuel filter change light or the water in fuel light.... have you drained the fuel bowl? IIRC the fuel filter light is an indicator of low fuel pressure. you'll need to pull the heater plate to see the sensors in the fuel bowl but they could easily have junk stuck to them that is...

    Another no start warm

    If you bought it from a dealer I would try to get them to take it back. You can do it yourself, it is not any more complicated than changing out a 302 or 351. you will need to pull apart the better part of the front end and get the core support out of the way. Oh and the engine is heavy so...

    a new noise ??

    goin on what you have said that you can duplicate it when you are sitting in neutral (presumably with clutch engaged) that makes it more than likely the input shaft bearing that is going bad or at a minimum a bearing somewhere in the transmission. If you have a 4wd you can put the T-case in...

    Sky Manufacturing shackle Reversal kit

    Shackle reverse kits won't work on the TTB unless you drop the center pivot of the axle also many people use these kits when doing D60 conversions.

    the DI chip is a TS style chip so a wide variety of programmers can take care of you and your programming if you should not like the programming from DI, Platinum 01 has DI's programs on his after getting his new transmission

    This is sick in a cool way.

    I like the way they look but you need to have something more than a day cab on the truck or it looks just plain odd.

    5spd tranny question

    there are some plastic/nylon bushings in the shifter pivot point that can lead to some rattling as they wear out. This noise should be quieted down if you simply hold the gear shifter or pick up on it slightly. Check the fluid level. Many people have indicated that extra noise can be greatly...

    Motorcraft or autolite glowplugs????

    if you have the money do to the preventative maint then new vc & UVC harnesses with the updated clips are great that and you wont' be too concerned if you break the retainers on the old design.

    Anyone Miss Their Diesel?

    I miss my diesel when I'm not driving it but I fully realize that my 3 series is far more maneuverable in daily traffic and people do not pass me just because they can't see around me then slow down. Oh and not to mention 2X the mileage is a nice benefit too. When I get in the truck and start...

    Taking longer to start?!

    I've been meaning to write up a Glow plug and GPR diagnosis sticky to put in the forums for the 7.3L trucks Oh and I do have the stancor GPR about 3 years old now and 2 good batteries but I think I am beginning to get some corrosion resistance in my battery cables.

    wicked wheel?

    6.0L trucks will whistle at idle especially with an open intake & exhaust. I can say that my truck whistles at idle :D when I've run it without the downpipe on

    well im going back to stock 97 splits again

    the benefits to split shots are a quieter running engine but the downside is that it requires significantly more high pressure oil so if you did larger splits then you would without a doubt need to get an upgraded aftermarket high pressure oil pump. All of the stock super duty injectors are...

    Safety Recall Notice

    Crumm thanks for reminding me to go out there and unplug mine since I pulled the truck in the garage. The diesel trucks are wired in a manner that this switch is not under constant power like the ones were in the gas burners. So the risk of fire is not present for a vehicle that does not have...

    Question Gear Reduction Starters?

    the SD trucks already came with a gear reduction starter from the factory the OBS trucks were a direct drive starter from the factory the SD starters will bolt up to the OBS trucks with no problem and start them faster. Most people are not comparing apples to apples but a brand new gear...

    Help Needed 2000 SD power steering boxes

    I'm guessing this would be the spine count for the pittman arm connection if so you should be able to yank that bolt off and count the splines.

    well im going back to stock 97 splits again

    depends on if you are going to be running stock programming or if you will be running a chipped program for stock split shots. back to 100% stock is going to suck royally but dependable as you could ever want. You'll loose quite a bit of bottom end get up and go because the turbo is going to...

    Taking longer to start?!

    I'll check mine when I get home, I was thinking they were a bit low but not if the truck is running with 8 glow plugs running.

    2011 f-450 KR

    I like the 5th wheel kit from the factory I'm sure it won't be too long before other mfgs are offering mounts that will utilize the factory setup so you do not need to buy the I'm sure to be overpriced hitch. I'm not too sure about the LCD screen in the gauge cluster.

    Ts perf torque convertor cont.

    if your engine is below 1300 rpm you do not have enough flow & pressure in the trans for converter locking. Your lockups can be lowered with a good well programmed chip.
