    '01 rough idle but starts now

    I've been trying to figure out what the issue is for a couple weeks now. 285k miles. Rough idle then wouldn't start. No buzz on injectors at all. Replaced CPS, ICP, IDM from Allsource computers. Cranked right up after new IDM install. Batteries are good. Oil level is full. Reservoir is full of...

    Possible rear main leak; clutch is slipping

    Driving home from work yesterday and put my foot into it to pass a car and clutch slipped a good bit. Changed my oil a few days ago and noticed a few drops of oil on the bellhousing. Didn't see any leaks anywhere that were obvious so figured it may be the very cold weather we have had. Last...

    Clutch PEDAL removal

    Was just on my way home from town and my clutch pedal went to the floor. Pulled into a parking lot and saw the tab laying on the floor that the actuating rod goes onto to actuate the master cylinder then the slave cyl....etc. I'm going to weld it back on but after getting under there to pull the...

    Clutch goes to the floor

    Just babied it home after planning my route carefully and sliding it into gear when the speed was right. Pushed the clutch in and it went all the way to the floor. Slave res is full. Any suggestions?? Electrical part works still as I had to start out in 1st gear when I had to stop all the way.

    Rotella T6

    Anyone using this exclusively now? Didn't even notice it wasn't the usual T5 stuff till I got home. Any differences noticed at all?

    Spring codes

    I have a leaning issue that I think is caused by some weak front springs ('01 with 196000 on it). I got some front springs from a co-worker off of a 2000 with 80000 on it. My only issue before I swap the front drivers side just to see if it changes things is the codes on the springs. I can't...

    Air bag use

    Anyone here using an airbag system? If so, what brand and how do you like it and how much do you tow with it? Thanks for your time.

    Stalling issue

    I have a friend with an '01 w/auto trans. He says when cold everything is normal. Once it gets to normal temp he said it stalls if you stop and then accelerate like from a stop light. He also said that when he gets home and parks in his driveway (with a slight incline up) that as he gets the...

    Ruining clutches

    I have an issue that I need to fix NOW. Every once in awhile (once a month maybe) my engine will dump fuel overboard. No specific driving traits are associated with it doing this. No particular temps, etc. It just does it when it wants to. I don't notice until after it has sat parked for an hour...

    Axle seals

    I am replacing my ball joints again since I went the cheap route last year and used low grade joints instead of Moogs. Got the Moogs here and am ready to do it but I have a question. Do you think my axle seals, which where replaced last year when I did the job the first time, will be ok if I'm...

    HPOP O-ring blew

    I had a very crappy weekend to say the least. Our son goes to college in Tallahassee which is 2.5 hours away, one-way. His POS Pontiac has been giving us trouble so I've been traveling back and forth for the last few weeks working on it. I went to leave Monday morning around 0500 and noticed a...

    rear axle anti-sway bar

    Anybody have any recommendations on a rear sway bar? I look at every SD I see going by and haven't seen one mounted on one yet. Better yet, does anyone feel one is required? I feel the rear end rolls a little more than I think it should. I do have an ARE cap on it though so it is adding a little...

    Gauge selection

    I am overdue on a gauge install and I was wondering if anyone out there monitors their ZF6 tranny temp? I like the 3 gauge pod under the cubby hole but I really only feel I need to monitor the EGT and Boost. I tow our boat which weighs in about 6000# or so wet. I know heat is much more crucial...

    Rear end cover

    Didn't someone say the rear end cover from the '08 will fit on 99's and newer? I'm talking about the nice, new pretty ones from the dealer.

    '08 fender vents

    Has anybody installed the side vents on the fenders from an '08 onto an older SuperDuty? I would think that it would help evacuate a lot of heat out of the engine bay. Especially down here in Lower Alabama where I am. A few cuts with a pneumatic saw, a little clean up, and maybe moving some...

    No power to the PCM

    I have a friend that has a 2000 7.3 that won't start. He put two new batteries in it. Fuel is getting to the bowl. Fuses all look good. He had a friend come over that hooked up his laptop to it and was running a program from Ford he said. The 'puter said the PCM wasn't receiving any power...

    won't start

    I can't believe I'm needing this thread so soon after the 'ran out of diesel deal' a little while ago. Anyways, went to pick up some fencing at a guys house this morning. Truck started fine, ran fine, etc. Started 3 times before the issue arose. Was all finished loading fencing and went to...

    Largest tire on a stock wheel

    What is the largest tire any of you have/are running on a stock 16 x 7" aluminum wheel? I'm running 285/75/16's now. Needing new ones shortly. Would like to go to 315's if possible. I know what the tire places say and have done alot of research but would like to hear from someone that is running...

    Exhaust question

    Morning guys. Hypertech is on max and the S&B intake works great. My next simple mod is the exhaust. I have read in numerous diesel mag's that the downpipe really doesn't need to be replaced but a better muffler will help lower my EGT's. Is anyone running straight out the back with no cat or...

    Nice forum!

    Just checking in with you guys. Been lurking for a little while. I'm down in East L.A. (Eastern Lower Alabama). Love my F250 but hate the price per gallon for diesel these days. I'm sure you'll hear more from me in the near future as I have a few questions about some mods I'm looking to do soon...
