    Question Fuel Heater Coolant Hose Replacement

    What you have is a fuel heater. It uses hot water to warm the fuel. When cold it will not do much to warm the fuel, but it will after a few minutes. THIS IS NOT A FORD PART!

    Question Fuel Heater Coolant Hose Replacement

    You need to replace the hoses. They are shot. It should not take that much pressure from the clamp to seal the hose to the fitting.

    Help Needed How to use the block heater

    Watch your houses meter and see if it starts to spin faster. If it does, then it is working. Now it will not make the meter spin like a pinwheel or a roulette wheel...

    Dodge 1/2 ton with diesel?

    The price of gas has a lot to do with the fewer diesel engines in trucks.

    Help Needed ’02 7.3 saga – stalls, no start, can’t figure this out

    How many miles? Don't throw parts at the truck. I would get only Ford or Motorcraft parts (CPS, IPR). Other parts are generally junk.

    Contact SCT and ask them. It is a different system so it may not work on your engine.

    Help Needed 6.4 turbo noise under extreme load

    You have a 5 speed automatic tranny, I am assuming so it is not a clutch. It maybe the turbo but it is hard to tell from here. These trucks do NOT like to be babied. Get on it and drive it like you stole it! You are building up a lot of junk in the exhaust if you don't get on it. Take it out...

    White/grey smoke, fuel smell

    Good Morning and :welcome to SDD. Yes, get it scanned or we all are guessing. There are codes in the PCM even if the Engine light is not on. Thanks for joining us. :)

    Glow plugs

    The description states that they are Motorcraft ZD-11 Glow Plugs. If they are not then you have a case of fraud you could persue.

    Need help

    OK, this is not getting you anywhere, nor me. You have to get the truck scanned, using a GOOD SCANNER like Autoenginuity and see what that tells you. If you don't have a scanner take it to a good garage and have them scan it. Is your 'check engine' light on? You will throw way to much $$$...

    What are you referring to?

    Need help

    What sensors are you referring to; "back pressure sensor"? Never heard of this. 150 psi is way too much boost pressure. You will lift the heads off the engine.
  18. DaveBen

    Need help

    Something is funny here. You are getting 50 to 70 psi of boost, but getting only 36psi at (on) the intake? How the Fu&% are you measuring this? Have you looked carefully at the boots to see if they ARE leaking? How many miles are on your truck?

    Raptor Style Grille Lights for Superduty

    That is very inventive! Nice job all the way round! You should sell these for the F-250 and F-350's.

    Tranny shot?

    Well, I am not a service tech. I do have many years under my belt and I have taken the cheap way out too many times. I always got burned in the end. Maybe I saved a few $$ in the short run, but I have paid in the long run. Experience!! These days I pay close to top dollar for top of the...

    Tranny shot?

    It is toast. Boiling tranny fluid is never a good thing. It may run for a few miles if all you change is the clutches, but you have a lot of burned junk floating around the tranny that will cause very big valve problems. Get a rebuilt tranny and be done with it.

    Bully Dog Tuners GT or BDX

    You do know that adding a tuner will void your powertrain warranty. These engines know if you add anything like a tuner, and retain this information for Ford to see. Please be carefull!

    Anti theft system

    A blinking LED light on the dash works wonders, in deterring break ins. Can't tell if it is an alarm or not.
