Best of luck to you!

These engines are known to surge when cold starting. This is due to the oil, 15W 40 is what the factory puts in. I changed to 5W 40 and the surging went away. I have never heard of the alternator causing surging.

Welcome to SDD! There is a LOT to learn here. If you have any questions, just ask in the forum that fits your engine/drive train.

You can use the wiring on the tow plug (4 wire or 7 wire) to get to the brake lights but these have blinkers tied into them. The third brake light in NOT in the tow wiring, as I recall.

Sounds ike you got it resolved slowly, but resolved. :thumbs

What are they telling you? Are you getting anything for your non-use of your truck? When do they think it will be put back together? I am stating nothing specific to the 6.7, just want to know more relevant information. :)

:welcome to SDD! Does your headlight switch have a fog position? If so, you have everything. Just plug them in and they SHOULD work. :)

:welcome to SDD! I just got back from Jefferson, Or to watch the Eclipse. Fantastic. Then we headed over to the Coast (Westport) and drove down the coast to California. Wonderful trip.

Look in the Owners manual for a fuse or other protection device (fuse link?). That is all I have got...

Thank goodness it is out without damaging homes. Scary!

:welcome to SDD Ron! Air bags for the rear of the truck e will help you carry the load of your fifth wheel trailer and allow you to air them down when you are empty. Look into them.

The other thing about forums, is that you tell the complete store. "I got codes X0001 & X00013". All codes mean something and maybe a clue to what is going on with your truck, so tell us all of the codes you get.

Thanks! This will save all of us a bunch of time. :thumbs

Bearing ware is no more a problem with the 6.0 than any other engine. Head gasket failure was the number 1 problem and I see you are going to be doing head studs. This should NOT be a problem after the head studs. I have not chipped my truck and it is running great, for a stocker. I have...

No, the fire(s) are at least ten miles or more. Winds are blowing smoke away from Ukiah. So of this afternoon, the fire has not consumed any more acreage and is almost under control. My info is from our local newspaper and the Sheriff's office on FaceBook.

Sunday afternoon about 2;30 pm I saw smoke in the skys north of us. It turns out that a car had caught fire along the Willits Grade, north of Ukiah about 10 miles. The car quickly set the dry grass on fire and it quickly escalated to 900 acres by dark last night. I know there are at least 15...

I have not heard anything about the Diesel F-150 in months. :dunno

Barometric pressure. It reads your altitude and adjusts the fuel to keep it optimum.

:welcome to SDD. I went to the U of A back in the 60's. If you have a question just ask. We will answer your questions. :)

You have to have good batteries to get enough current to spin the engine over at a good rate or it will not start. Make sure you have good batteries that are fully charged and then try it again. I am not sure how many rpms you need to get it to fire. My 6.0 needs 500 rpms to start. :dunno

Run what the tire manufacture recommends for your weight 110 psi cold. Going up in elevation does not change the tire pressure. If you are overloaded, it is up to you.

Very nice Barrett! :)
