    Wrecked my injectors/HPOP...

    Guys, Looking for a little help on diagnosing a problem with my truck. I ran my truck low on oil (4 quarts) due to a slight leak from my rusty oil pan. I dont drive the truck much and knew enough to buy some oil for my trip last weekend but was too stupid to not check the oil... I was...

    Brakes locking up

    I found this thread exactly explaining my issue with my brakes locking up: http://www.superdutydiesel.com/forums/911-diesel-down/23790-brakes-locking-up.html It looks like the hydroboost is to blame. What is all involved in changing one and what year trucks will fit mine. I have an...

    No power to fuel pump

    I have been working on a low fuel pressue issue with my truck. I did verify the pressure with a gauge and it was only 20 psi. I figured that the pump was bad so I replaced it. Still only getting 20 psi. I then looked at the FPR. Found the O-Ring that seals the brass cup was all smashed and...

    Fuel Press gauge install

    I finally got around to hooking up my Diprocol Fuel Pressure gauge this morning. I installed it with the supplied Isolator and filled the cavity with antifreeze after I gently pushed down the diaphram in the isolator. I am only getting a little over 20 psi of fuel pressure. Is there a special...

    UVC harness pinout

    I have an old thread in the 7.3 power and performance (accidently put in wrong forum) for my truck that died. Back in December I was towing my snowmobile to a friends house to go play around. Along the way over about 5 miles I was loosing power bad till the truck would barely idle and then...

    99 7.3 Won't start

    Earlier in December I took my truck to tow my snowmobile trailer a couple miles away to a friends field to play around. On my way I noticed the truck loosing power and I could barely do 50 mph with it floored. I limped it to my destination and it then died. I attempted to start it and it...

    Anyone replace their Driveshaft center support?

    I think my driveshaft center support is toast. The shaft will move inside of it and it looks like the rubber is detached from the housing. I was just curious how it comes off. Since I have a 2 peice shaft, can I just slide the shaft apart and pull off the old bearing and slide on the new one...

    Driveline Vibration

    I was towing the camper this past week, and was noticed a vibration when not towing. The best way to describe it is it vibrates slghtly between the point where your not accelerating anymore but not decelerating. If you slightly lift off the gas pedal it will vibarate until it is full decel...

    Truck died...

    Well as luck would have it, I'm driving to work on the coldest day of the year, -15 out, -35 windchill, truck started and is running great. It all of a sudden dies while driving on the intertate. RPM's go to zero and I pull off. I tried to restart and no WTS light. I'm thinking I read about...

    White smoke when running?

    First I want to say that I fixed the smoke with a fuel filter change, it was very dirty. But I was a little curious why it was smoking? I hadn't noticed any smoke until this morning, when I smelled something a little funny driving to work. I noticed the smoke on the intertate when someone got...

    Manual to Power mirrors

    I was just wondering if anyone has a link to some pics or instructions for doing a swap to power mirrors. I currently have the manual mirrors on my 99. I thought I had read a link some time ago about doing this conversion, and that it was posssible. I was probably going to pick up some power...

    F250 leaf blocks

    If you drop the rear of an F350 SRW with the F250 2" blocks do you need new shocks? Or can you utilize the same ones? Bill

    Dually Conversion

    Has anyone done a Dually conversion on their SRW trucks? I tow a pretty heavy 5'ver (12500 dry) and load 3 big ATV's in it plus gear. That is alot of weight on 2 rear tires. Trading in for a dually isn't an option, but I came across a company that makes conversion kits. You get 6 wheels...

    Getting hot?

    I was wondering what would happen if the radiator cap wasn't holding pressure? I had mine replaced recently, but I still have issues when towing up long grades. I was pulling a 15K 5ver and also had problems towing a 7K travel trailer and running with the AC on. Temps will climb and I need...

    True Cool Max

    Just wanted to pass on a good experience with this tranny cooler. With the stock cooler I was getting up to about 200 degs as indicated on my temp gauge when pulling around 68-69 mph. I didn't have time to install the cooler before my last camping trip, so I brought it along and did the...

    Aftermarket Intercooler Dimentions

    Does anyone know off hand what the dimentions of the Spearco Intercoolers are? I'd like to get a general idea as I want to price cores for possibly making a cooler myself. I made the one on my camaro, which uses a 36"x6" by 3.5" deep core. For the price of the Spearco units I could have made...

    Diesel EGT's

    I'm pretty new to Diesels (as you can see by my post #'s) and had a few questions about EGT's. I have been afiliated with gas engines and pcm tuning for a few years now with my camaro, and was just curious if the temps with gas and diesel correlate. I have always been told if tuning a gas...

    swamp 20 deg Hpop

    Wondering if anyone has a link to Swamps 20deg HPOP. I have seen a few sigs with it mentioned and tried to search for any info. Couldn't find any. Is this a good way to go without going with a twin setup? Would be looking at towing performance, not all out huge turbo/huge injector setup...

    Observations on the tranny after chip install

    First off I want to say I love my DP chip. I just have some observations that I'd like to bring up and see if this is normal. When I take off at low speed, or any speed before the converter locks the rpm's come up and stay up while the truck is accelerating. They stay pretty constant while...

    Aux transmission cooler recommendations

    I'm going on a trip this next weekend. Driving the truck today for it's first long trip since adding gauges(100+ miles) unloaded thru Milwaukee, I noticed the transmission temps start to climb putzing thru 10 miles of stoplights and construction. After it got above 180, I stopped for lunch. I...

    Truck Stance

    Looking at my truck, the back end sits alot higher than the front. The front leaf springs look like they are pretty much straight, no bow to them. Is this normal for the SD trucks? or did the springs just weeken with mileage and sag a little. There is only about 2" between the axel and the...

    WOW... DP Tuner!

    My new computer and chip came today for my truck. I only got the stock, 40Hp Tow and 80 econo program. All I can say is WOW! The 80 Hp program is awesome. Part throttle power just driving around normally is worth every $!! The truck is/was lazy off the line with the stock program, and that...

    Where is the Computer?

    I just ordered a new flip chip from DP tuners. I know what your thinking already... "you needed to give Jody the code off your PCM to order the chip" Well per their advice I got a new PMT1 computer as it is supposed to work better than my early '99 one. So needless to say, I haven't accessed...

    AIH delete

    I did a search on this but couldn't find anything. I read a while ago that a plug can be purchased for this, and I believe it was an oil drain plug from a Dodge Cummins Diesel. Also where is the AIH located? Is it the center port on the intake Y with the wires going to it? Bill
