    No voltage to Relay/controller for Glow plugs

    I had the same problem, when it got 32 or lower it would not even turn over. Took it to my local mechanic and he checked the glow plugs and they were fine. He then went back to the relay for the glow plugs and had a low voltage reading, it was just barley above 34 at the time. He got a new...

    Front End Bushings

    I got the Energy's and love them. They seem to be more responsive to steering inputs and not as much give as the FOMOCO's are. :sweet

    2000 7.3L con's? any?

    I love mine, srw, cc, 4x4, Lariat. It now has 165,000+ miles on it. Just maint. and a few minor fixin's. Had it about a year, bought it at a auction in Orlando,FL (or I should say my wife did, she loves it). Only other thing is the CPS gone out once.

    Vacuum Leak??

    I got SS ones from here: http://www.dieselsite.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=348 They are a little more but work great. I don't worry about mine anymore.

    sway bar links/bushings

    Red it sounds like the shop was selling you NEW link and bushings combined. Just get the Polys from Summit and you can do it yourself in about 2 hours or less. I suggest if you have a machine shop handy let them press your old bushings out and then you can pop the polys in by hand. They snap...

    sway bar links/bushings

    I took my links to the machine shop and for $10 and 15 minutes later I was on my way back home :sweet to put the Energy SuspensionPolys in. They go in easy and YES do put QUALITY grease in and on them, be kind of messy with it. It doesn't hurt. Just wipe the excess off if you get the red...

    It's cold and the truck won't hit a lick

    Thanks EVERYONE I have had my VOM out this morning checking everything and putting the wife in to try to crank. I don't know if it finally got warm enough? or what but while under the truck (at the starter) she finally cranked and scared the CRAPPY outs of me. Maybe it just warmed up enough...

    It's cold and the truck won't hit a lick

    Well I replaced the solenoid on the fender but that still didn't do it. I have checked the connections to the starter and they are tight. My battery cables are super tight and very clean with grease and the felt pads. Just a quick question. If the glow plugs aren't very good could they keep...

    It's cold and the truck won't hit a lick

    I would bet there is no way to get at the Park/Neutral switch inside the tranny. I have tried shifting it to Neutral and starting it but notta' thing is happening. Tried moving the shifter back and forth while in park and Neutral and still nothing. Hope it warms up tomorrow, I've got no...

    It's cold and the truck won't hit a lick

    Hey Tail gunner, my lights seem to work fine on the dash and everything seems to work fine. I turn the key and only a few of the lights go off the ones on the left stay on. The inside lights never dim and even if I turn the Headlights on then try to start it they never dim? I have a auto It...

    It's cold and the truck won't hit a lick

    Thanks, Rooster I'll try the solenoid tomorrow. Is it on the fender on the passenger side? I think it is. I'll start there. And chase it down to the starter. Is there a solenoid on the starter or just wires to pass the voltage to engage the shaft? Just when it gets warm outside it will...

    It's cold and the truck won't hit a lick

    What is happing to big red? We are having a cold snap here in TN and now my truck won't hit a lick. I have 2 new batteries (bought 2 weeks ago) and when I turn my key I get nothing :dunno . My battery voltage stays at 12.5 even when someone turns the key. It doesn't crank or even try to turn...

    HELP: Blown Front Sway Bar Bushing

    I just took my end links to the machine shop and in 5 minutes (and $10 later they were out) and I was on my way home to put my red poly energy suspension and Rancho 5000 shocks on. Only took about 3 hours total. Taking them to the machine shop was the easiest thing to do. Let them deal with...

    lookin for some help!?

    Good looking truck there, I like the color (same as my '00 350). I changed the CPS 3 times (as they say third times the charm) first two was the blue ones. They lasted about 2-3 weeks each. Then on the third got it from e-bay along with a new ICP sensor and haven't had a problem since (about...

    AFE stage 2 claims 50hp gain, true?

    I love my AFE II and wouldn't trade it for anyother. Gitty up and go? It's got it! Easy to install and just plain looks awsome being so big, I need to get the sock for it though (getting bugs and such). As far as the sound. If you love the whine of the turbo and whooosh of air created by...

    Intakes?

    In the AFE Stage 2 with PG7 the whoooosh of air being pulled in after letting off is AWSOME. The whine is LOUDER and more pronouced. OH and the gitty up and GO is, well let's just say "It'll git r done" I LOVE LOVE LOVE mine, I can't believe I would ever find anything better. :burnit :sweet...

    Truck Jerks, and Stall's

    I replaced my CPS and still had the same stalling, I then changed my ICP switch and haven't had a problem since (about 7 months now) I just took a shot in the dark. Got lucky I guess, ordered the part off of EBAY and had it in 3 days. Only paid 37.50 for it. I was well worth the guess. Just...

    Turning key and nothing

    D.A. Me forgot to mention that I had parked on a steep hill facing down and kinda sideways. Checked the oil and just barely touched stick. Rolled it to level ground and vola' it fired right up and runs fine. Sorry for that but I had no clue and had read other post after posting it and went...

    Turning key and nothing

    in addition Well I may have answered my own question. Does the 7.3 have a shut off if the oil level is low? If so I am parked with the front facing down hill. My dip stick (not me) is reading about 2.5 qts low when parked like this. Maybe this is why it will not hit-a-lick......or is...

    Turning key and nothing

    My automatic 00 is not responding to the key switch. I wait on the light and turn key and nothing happens. Nothing seems wrong with the batteries because everything else works, and just 5 hours ago I just got home from a 1500 mile drive. I have moved the gear leaver to Neutral and tried that...

    Power Locks Question

    If they all 4 go out then replace them with the same ones I found and use. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=330-010 these are really cheap and work wonderfully. I have replaced all 4 of mine with these and so far 8 months later they still work. Thinking about for...

    front brakes

    Congrats on the brake job, did the new pads come with the anti-vibration/squeel thingies that goes on the back of the pads? Even without the anti-pads they are fine for the first couple hundred miles then all of a sudden one day they start (like mine has done) and it will PYO and won't be fun...

    front brakes

    On my '00 I had 2 clips above the pads that was a spring type pusher to keep the pads pushed back, this was the only pain in the butt to get it to stay in place while putting them back in. My suggestion is to spend the 20 bucks from Advance for the Brake hardware (maybe PN 5638A/H5638 Federal...
