    What could cause intermittent boost lose?

    My neighbor has an 05 F250 6.0L auto and is on a trip with his 26' trailer. He called me with an intermittent boost lose when he has his foot in it going up a hill. When he doesn't have his foot in it, everything appears to be fine. It's not blowing black smoke either. He pulled to the...

    Drivers side front axle seal leaking,,, again, again, again.... Ideas???

    This should be pretty basic but it's got me scatching my head. I've replaced / had replaced this axle seal 3 times. It doesn't leak right away, usually I get about 5k miles, then it starts seeping again. I've used Ford brand seals the last 2 times and a NAPA seal the first. Mic' ed the axle...

    Hub question??

    This is embarassing, but when I turn my hubs from "lock" to "free", I turn them to the left (counter clockwise), but my ford owners manual says they should turn right (clockwise). I jacked it up to verify because one of the was sticking locked. Your thoughts? Oh, and I am looking at...

    02 Eng cooling sys questions

    My 02 7.3L seems to be doing a couple weird things. Over Memorial Day weekend, we made as trip up north on the 5 and when we came back south over the Grapevine my coolant temp gauge went up just a hair short of the red and the fan clutch didn't appear to kick in. I changed the fan clutch and...

    Help finding "X" springs for F350?

    I'm hoping someone can help me find "X" code front springs for my 02 F350. I've called the 2 nearest Ford dealers and spoken to 3 different parts people and they all tell me I must have the VIN for a truck with these X code springs for them to even look them up. If I owned a truck with these x...

    Leveling kit on f350

    My stock 02 F350 seems to have a lot of height difference between the front and back end. I spoke to a local spring shop and they told me it was normal. But I'd like to level it up abit. Since I have leafs on this year it's alittle expensive. But I'd really appreciate some input on what...

    Coolant Temp sender/gauge question

    Coming home yesterday on I-5 south over the Grapevine, I was towing our Toy Hauler and midway up my Coolant gauge began to climb fast and leveled out just below the red "HOT" zone. It never made it all the way to the red, but was close. I was driving my '02 F350 7.3L and it is stock except...

    At 233K, suggestions on what to replace??

    With 233K on my truck and no intension of replacing it yet, what critical items should I be looking at replacing (on my schedule, not a roadside break down). I've already done the water pump, alternator, starter, starter relay and belts/rad. hoses. Oh, and the trans. I don't know what type...

    Wastegate accuator

    Now that I finally have a boost gauge, what's the advantage of the aftermarket wastegate accuator? As I understand it, the stock unit allows boost to sort of leak out depriving the engine of the full potential of the boost generated, if that makes sense. I don't want a race truck, just to...

    No throttle peddle response

    This morning I started my truck, let it warm for a 3-4 minutes, got in to go but had not throttle response. It was idling normally, but when I put it in reverse and applied throttle, it just continued to idle. After pumping the throttle a few times it picked it up and away I went. Seem to...

    A/C problem at 105 F

    The compressor on my truck seems to cycle off to long. It stays off long enough for the duct temp. to get warm, as in 80-90 degrees. Checked the charge and its OK. Hows the thermastatic control in the dash work? Is it like a capillary tube and switch? Any other ideas are appreciated.

    05 intercooler hoses blowing off??

    I'm sure one of you wise gentlemen have seen this. What could be causing it? The dealer couldn't help, nor could a local so called "PSD specialist". The first couple times the lower passenger side blew off and this morning it was the upper hose at the front of the engine. Always happens when...

    New wheel bolt pattern on '07 F250 PSD??

    Has anyone heard about the bolt pattern changing from 8/170mm to 8/200mm on the '07s? I'm trying to add tire capacity to my '99 F250 SRW 4X4 by buying a set of 19.5 wheels that have the correct offset for the new trucks, but that I can use on my '99 until the '07's are out. Or, maybe someone...
