    FWIW, I changed my rear end oil to Royal Purple 2 years ago, and it stated on the bottle that NO additives were needed for liminted slip rear ends.

    New diesel owner

    CCSBD, Welcome, I wouldn't let it sit more that I had to. As for leaving it plugged in, when it gets below 40 degrees I use a heavy duty timer on mine, it comes on at 1:00 AM and goes off at 4:00 AM, just before I fire it up to head to work. You could set it up to cycle off and on every so...

    Help Needed New Turbo, 0 BOOST!!

    Red, It was the turbo, they figure it sat on the shelf in a warehouse and rusted. I wanted to see it disassembled but the shop wouldn't do it because it needed to be exchanged. Like I said earlier, I figure it was re-manufactured, not a brand new one. Trust me it was a week of PITA for me! But...

    Help Needed New Turbo, 0 BOOST!!

    I got it back Friday and it's running like scalded ape! Only I could have this kind of luck. Put a new turbo in and have the truck run WORSE than it did before I replaced it! But all is good now!

    Help Needed New Turbo, 0 BOOST!!

    Stroker, No turbo sound at all at all. I just picked it up from my dealer. They say it's the turbo. I tend to agree. The vanes are stuck. Before I removed the old one it would turn up after a few seconds, like 5 to 20 and I could hear it sing when idling. Sounds like a Prat & Whittney J-52! I...

    Help Needed New Turbo, 0 BOOST!!

    I installed a new stock turbo & VGT solenoid on my truck this weekend because my Ford Dealership said that it need cleaned or replaced. I figured what the heck & replaced it. After the install it wouldn't boost at all. Still won't! We replaced the EBP sensor, the boost sensor, and cleaned...

    04 6.0 as daily driver

    I run mine 80 miles a day, 5 days a week, all interstate and NEVER idle more than 2-3 minutes. And this morning I dropped it off at the shop for a new turbo. With 104000 on it the turbo finally started to hang up. I just went ahead and had a new one installed instead of trying to clean the old...

    Question Armrest removal

    My armrest is starting to crack on the drivers side. Has anyone ever removed one? I thought about swapping the drivers side with the passenger side. They look the same top or bottom. I am thinking I could pull both and swap them around, putting the weathered cracked section from the drivers...

    Question Bad turbo?

    Kenholl, Thanks for replying, I tell all my employees "No question is a stupid question". I did just start parking in the garage a couple of months ago, after I sold my boat. When I was parking on the grass I never noticed it! Thanks again...

    smoking.. lil

    Hey Nascar, I would think your leak would be from your valve cover or maybe glow plug harness and not your head gaskets. It would not be running too good if it was your head gaskets blown out! Just my 2 cents worth!

    Ticked off.

    I got a nice fresh ding on my tailgate last month from a filppin' J/A mowing the grass in between the parking lots at work. I heard it hit as I was walking to my truck after work! If I didn't work on a Federal Navy Base I would have drug him off that Snapper and snapped his neck! But they frown...
