    Getting ready for a 3K mile tow w/ 5th wheel

    It is more of a quick side to side shaking. It is not very bad because my wife did not notice. It concerned me because I have towed many boats through the years and I have repaired a few that got away from their owners while towing. I was thinking tongue weight or height but I am completely...

    check engine light and rough running

    Okay, so they put the new injector in on monday and test ran the truck...they called me and said they were going to put in two more new injectors. I am getting kind of worried about this deal. I am thinking that one bad injector could be a fluke but three bad injectors? I guess I will just...

    check engine light and rough running

    wish I knew, but thats all I could get them to tell me...perhaps I will find out more when I pick it up. I must add that they gave me an f150 to drive. It sure makes me appreciate my f250 4x4.

    check engine light and rough running

    so I just got a call from the dealer and the service writer says it has a bad #5 injector. He was unable to say why it is bad so I guess I will just have to wait and see. Hopefully the replacement of the injector will do the trick.

    check engine light and rough running

    hmmm...now you guys have me thinking. I did not know that they were replacing so many turbos. I also have been taking it easy on the throttle because of fuel prices and somebody said you need to push it once in a while. Why is that needed? My turbo was giving plenty of boost but it did sound...

    check engine light and rough running

    I am not the extended service kind of guy. I have always just paid for repairs that were out of warranty. I think that I have saved money through the years doing it that way. (even if they say I don't get a loaner car) It does strike me that you only get a loaner on your almost 50,000 dollar...

    check engine light and rough running

    Powerboatr, took your advise and had it towed to the dealer I bought it from. Their service department tells me they have a big backlog of 6.0 powerstrokes and it will be a while before they can get to it. I called ford and they offered no additional help. I am really hoping that they will...

    check engine light and rough running

    Thanks for the information. I have changed both of the filters and did not find anything major...some discoloration and minor debris in the frame rail / separator nothing in the other. I guess this means I am off to the dealer for them to diagnose it. They say it will be at least a week...
