    battery acts dead, but its not

    The last few days my trucks starter was turning slower and slower but always started. Yesterday morning it wouldnt even try and I got a ride to work. I thought the problem was that since I only drive 5 miles a day it wasnt getting a charge. So I came home and put the battery charger on it...

    Starter not engaging

    99.5 7.3 F350 DRW Went to start the truck and the starter would turn but isnt engaging the flywheel. It does seem like it is kicking out, but either the flywheel has a bad spot on it or the starter pinion is toast. It spins and gives a ringing metal on metal sound (the kind of sound that...

    Performance Switches and Knobs on dash?
