    Question Any long term probs with unplugged EGR?

    Was wondering if there are any long term issues that can arise from leaving your EGR Valve unplugged? This is the second time this year it has gone out. Last time I didn't know that was what it was and you could unplug it and I had to pay a tow truck to come and get it. I have heard of...

    4x4 problem

    bush, I know you have a schematic or diagram laying around that you are just itching to post of here about all of the vacuum lines and all that. The more I can visually see where it is located and how to track down the problem the better off I will be. Simply because I have a 1 week old in the...

    4x4 problem

    My ac systems is functioning properly. I haven't had any problems with it cooling the truck down or blowing air out of the vents. It isn't defaulting to defrost only either.

    Any Ideas - Truck Down

    don't worry bush, I will definitely be on here if I ever have anymore troubles. As of right now though the truck is still running fine. At least now I know that I can unplug the egr and get the truck to the shop without have to call for a tow.

    Any Ideas - Truck Down

    Thanks bush, now I know about the EGR system. So in theory by unplugging the egr would that then allow me throttle to get finished with what I was doing and enough safe time to get the truck to the shop? So I won't be left stranded on the side of the road? I will have to say it again, bush...

    Any Ideas - Truck Down

    ***update*** The dealership got me my truck back right after lunch today :clap: As it turned out it was the egr valve. What does EGR stand for and better yet what is its purpose?

    MPG question

    I have never heard of any exhaust kit adding that kind of numbers to anyones mileage. That would mean with a 300-700 exhaust kit you would save $45.25 per fill up and that the exhaust kit would therefore pay for it self in 6.6 to 15.5 fill ups. Which in my case would mean at max 2 1/2 months...

    Any Ideas - Truck Down

    Today while trying to take back some materials from a job I lost all throttle response from my truck. 2006 F-350 6.0 PSD 47000 miles. I was able to make it to the side of the road. It is like the truck went into limp mode. I was cruising along at 55mph and all of the sudden the truck just...

    SCT Xcalibrator 2 question??

    I'll have to get up to the office and pull the invoice from the work that was done and cull through it to try and find the documentation if there is any. When I originally looked over it I don't remember seeing it, but I will look again.

    2008 center console installed!

    Yeah that is a 1968 International Scout 800-A, I have an earlier year Scout at the barn that I am using as parts donor for this one, though the donor is a 64 or so. The donor is the previous interior body style vs the one in the pic. Very good eye.

    2008 center console installed!

    Thanks! I bought the console off of ebay from a company that customizes trucks for RV packages and different things. It should fit with no problems even with arm rests. If you look at the couple of pics I took looking from the top down you will notice the clearance you have on both sides of...

    turning off the Seat Belt Warning chime

    ok guys, I looked in the manual and found the directions for turning the chime off, but they don't work. I did it every possible way conceivable and I can't get it to work. Has this happened to anyone else.

    Navigation Radio

    oh yeah, I have a friend with that same unit and he has enjoyed the bluetooth functionality of the unit. I almost bought that unit for my last truck, but decided to wait since I knew I was fixing to buy another truck within the next year.

    Navigation Radio

    Very true bush, I am looking at the package deal with Xrutchfield right now. That would allow me to go ahead and hook up my XM, iPod, as well as use my cell phone without have to put on my ear piece every time I get in the truck. Which will be awesome.
