    02 excursion brakes

    Have you flushed your brakes lately? Also, do you have the stock lines that go from the metal lines to the calipers? I had mine changed out to SS braided lines and the brakes feel a lot better. SS Kevlar Braided Brake Hose

    new transmission

    The BTS is set up for your application. It will slam gears if you tell Brian that you want it to do that.

    Black Smoke

    For that price, you should be able to get a tune or two plus the hardware.

    Something to Think About

    During start-up, the pre-glow andafter-glow helps your diesel fuel burn more evenly and completely. Not sure where it cautions against using them in afterglow systems. In fact there is even a plug for our applications. Where are you seeing it that Borg Warner cautions against using them in...

    Something to Think About

    What exactly is it about the afterglow that has you worried? I'm not too sure about afterglow. All I know is that some vehicles have the glow plugs still on after starting for a couple of seconds for emission control.

    03 7.3L 4R100 Trans gets hot

    In the stock tune and with that and the BTS trans, I can barely break 55 over ambient in the summer.

    Question stock trans temp gauge

    The oil pressure light was designed to keep the driver calm. On my GM, it would rise up and then settle to a certain pressure and go up when it is revved and drop down to that pressure when it is not. Ford didn't want you to get worried so they made it such that when you get 5 psi, the gauge...

    Question stock trans temp gauge

    Forget it and get an aftermarket unit. Remember, Ford is the one that gave you the idiot light oil pressure gauge. As long as you have 5 psi, it reads normal. Do you want to tell me that you think 5 psi is fine for me if I run at 3000 rpm?

    Tranny Issue

    You can install the 6.0 cooler with very little fabrication and it is very efficient

    Any transmission mechanics out there?

    Here is an idea. Call BTS. He will tell you what needs to be done EVEN IF you are not buying his products. 1-870-422-3673

    03 7.3L 4R100 Trans gets hot

    I generally don't like to have an expensive TC in a used trans. If it breaks, the only way to fix the TC is to have it cut apart, cleaned, rewelded back and balanced. Cost me close to $400 for that service, IIRC.

    03 7.3L 4R100 Trans gets hot

    before I go that far, first thing to do is to check the gauge. Take an infrared thermometer to scan the pan. If they jive, we go from there. Maybe a 6.0 cooler or check debris between the grille and the radiator fan.

    Could the glow plugs be original? They might be getting "tired"

    DP tuner VS Six gun

    I'd ditch the Banks crap altogether. Get gauges and you won't regret it. Gauges can do more than the Banks crap. The only Banks I want to see is Briana Banks. Briana Banks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    DP tuner VS Six gun

    I didn't want to offer less since he is a forum member but I can't see myself paying more than that for a wall ornament. :sly

    DP tuner VS Six gun

    Isn't that Banks thing the one that hooks into the ICP to fool the PCM? If so, I'd ditch the b1tch and get a DP-Tuner

    Nice X for sale on E-bay

    This is an awesome 2000 custom Ford Excursion XLT 4x4 SUV. 7.3 liter diesel runs excellent on biodiesel or regular diesel and can easily be converted to run WVO / SVO (veggie oil)... over 20 mpg 20 mpg with that sort of vehicle modded to that level? I don't think so. I wouldn't if he has...

    Who is parking their truck today?

    Put it this way. I don't have an issue with it whether I am a share holder or not (which I am not unless someone gave me shares I don't know about). I know I am trying to make more than 20% profit.

    Who is parking their truck today?

    Ok, so how do you know that they really made 40 billion profit? Why not 80 billion? 60 billion? 20 billion? Why not 10? After all, if you feel their numbers are bogus, why not go for broke and make it 20 billion so they pay less taxes? How do you know that they made more profit than ever? Maybe...
