    Pump problems

    you can get aftermarket performance pumps for around 500 like the terminator 5 hr job not quite I could easily do it in the driveway in around 3. Edit: looks like it's 500 for the mod but 600 for a new alliant pump

    97 F Superduty stops running

    the hot start problems are classic IPR o-ring issues depending what o-rings you replaced them with they may be slightly out of tolerance which would leave you with new o-rings behaving just like the old ones did. Right now my car is torn apart because the viton o-rings that I decided were the...

    Starts very rough then smooths out nicely

    I'm going to hazard that you have some poor connections at either the VC gasket or in the UVC Harnesses going to some glow plugs or possibly the injectors and once it warms up those poor connections make contact

    question about batteries

    yes your batteries can get weak enough that if it doesn't fire off on the first try then it'll die, I just replaced my batteries because of that exact problem. I'm sure that it didn't help that my Stancor was dying. I'd replaced my batteries about 3 years prior as warranty replacements from AZ...

    Swamps tunes

    I haven't used his programs personally but he has excellent customer service in other areas and I haven't heard any complaints about his programming. I'm running a Total Diesel Performance (tony Wildman) chip in my truck. With the TS chip you can pick pretty much any tuner except DP Tuner and...

    Trailer tire problems

    Good to hear that they are going to take care of you finally. I've yet to be impressed with Tire Kingdom around here. Though they are one of a few shops with an alignment rack that can fit my truck. They were over $300 more for the last set of tires that I put on the truck, or they couldn't get...

    BTS Trans Fluid Question/Poll

    I though BTS put Schaffers in their transmissions... You've had the TD in your trans up to this point, it appears to be the slightly more expensive formulation however seems to be designed to take a bit more abuse.

    What happened to everybody?

    you've made the move I hope to make one day I just have to convince my wife, though every time the property tax statement or estimate shows up I get a bit closer. It is astonishing the difference in what you can buy when you get away from FL.

    My Stancor GPR Died :(

    Just a post to simply say that my Stancor GPR died. When energized there is no current across the large lugs. A bit more research and diagnosing led me to discover that the coil has failed for some reason. I'm semi-patiently awaiting the brown truck to bring me a replacement. So since I'm...

    SES light

    the 'zone can't scan a PSD even though these trucks are OBDII the scanners 'zone uses are only good for the gas engines.

    Exhaust Suggestions....

    Just another person saying 4" turbo back in stainless A single stack is easy on the passenger's side dual stacks require a crossover which is usually inside the bed up against the cab taking up cargo space; but then again so is that single stack.

    Exhaust Suggestions....

    straight pipes are not extremely loud on a PSD and is a frequently chosen option. Single side exhaust will be the cheapest. Prices vary significantly from vendor to vendor. But they also vary based on if they include a downpipe or not in the kit as well as the length of the exhaust based on...

    Question First Long Haul

    this is the biggest red flag in what you said. most often the O/D light flashes when the transmission detects slippage. It takes a good bit of slippage before it triggers the light. low on boost can be a number of things but get a boost gauge on there to be sure what is going on under the...

    Max Pulling Power with Reliability

    Patrick pretty well covered what needs to be done, if you stick with stock injectors adding an intercooler will allow you to pretty much max out the injectors without EGT issues which is what your 80hp chip does. Be very careful not to toast your transmission with extra power especially while...

    Where do you fit in?

    I only hit 2 of 4, yes I'm a man nope not over 45 yes to 4X4 though it is not the DD nope to snow & Ice, if it snows enough to stick on a road in FL we have some serious issues. That being said light snowing (less than 3") my RWD car does just fine. Ice the car does better due to physics &...

    Is my trans failing me?

    Dave how would you classify the error codes P0700-0799? While I'll differ with Dave about the PCM having no way to tell if the transmission is failing. He does indirectly point out that by the time the PCM knows that the transmission is failing it's long gone, often the seat of your pants...

    92 7.3 air bound every morning

    ok I typed out a long response then realized that your van is an IDI engine presuming it is still stock. I'll suggest heading over to Oilburners.net, there are far more IDI savy folks over there who can point you in the right direction.

    Wanting to buy a (stick) welder but have no clue what size I need

    Wire feed MIG welders are nice however traditional stick welders are very useful depending on what you're doing. I have both sitting in the garage right now. a 30+ year old Miller 35S and an older Lincoln AC/DC box. I learned stick welding before mig welding and I can say that it has made me...
