    New Super Duty owner!

    Your boost PSI at wide open throttle with a load should be 27-29 psi. It wont get that high if your empty until you get into the top RPM of second and third gears. Yours sounds like you have a exhaust leak (feeding the hot side of the turbo) or you have a turbo problem, do what DAVEBEN said...

    Question Oil cooler

    Having just done mine for the first time i could do it now in probably 1 day, the first time took 3 days, but it was really hot outside and i had no clue what i was doing. Watch the SR Master mechanic on youtube he really helped me get through it.

    Engine Oil Temps

    Sorry to hear you already did this, i just did mine. I think after doing mine i would say the cooler is plugged again or you have a Tstat that is stuck, but you could pull it and check it easy enough. I would say that if the water was running that cool the oil should be too. Start by...

    EGR delete, HERE WE Go Again

    Sorry this took so long but here are some back yard pics, i got the tune from Jody at DP, it shut off the CEL and added 40HP, i would also add that after removing all the EGR stuff and cleaning the intake, ( I can't believe the air could flow to the valves for all the crud) my mileage went up by...

    Question Changed batteries tranny doesnt work

    Here's an update, the truck now shifts F to R properly (no delay) but it still drops out of lock at about 50-55mph its at 687rpm which does not seem correct. So i guess i am going to live with this, can anybody else tell me what there rpm is when they come off the throttle to coast around...

    Question Changed batteries tranny doesnt work

    Well i will try the things you folks have suggested, but i must add, that it acts like the torque converter is not locking up, when i went to church today, i was going 60mph, and when i let off the throttle the rpm's drop to 800 like there is no back pressure so i placed it in tow haul mode and...

    Question Changed batteries tranny doesnt work

    Okay i checked for codes,there were none. So your saying that the tranny has a learning curve. Does it have a module that is doing this learning, and if so where is the module??? I dont know the whole thing is just crazy to me, I sure am scratching my head.

    Question 7.3 sounds like somebody hitting it with a hammer is this injector knock

    Okay thanks to all, it has no leaks and has no other signs of any problems, fuel mileage is still good and it runs strong, it does idle a little funny, maybe a little more rough than when we first got it, but i have been driving my 6.0 and it is way quieter than her 7.3. Anyway i am taking it to...

    Question 7.3 sounds like somebody hitting it with a hammer is this injector knock

    Okay im sure somebody has something on this because i think i read about it 5 or 6 years ago, my wifes 01 excursion (138K miles) sounds like somebody is hitting it with a hammer on the block when its at idle, this goes away once it clears about 900 rpm, maybe a little sooner. Anyhow i am...

    Help Needed Seal in steering Knuckle?

    you pull the bolts that hold the knuckle and there is a giant vacuum seal that you have to pound or pry out. if you damage it getting your axle out (which i did) you have to replace it which involves either a shop pressing it off and on or you doing it with some home made items. If you reinstall...
