    4R100 rebuild/no forward gears

    What exactly did you do when you "went through it"? What were the exact codes? Did you do anything to the valve bodies in any of these transmissions? Did you tear down the other two transmissions to see if you could find failure point? The 4r100 has a known 2-3 shift valve issue in the...

    4R100 rebuild/no forward gears

    Lack of lubrication will burn frictions... No filter means the pump can't take in fluid. Mark can correct me if I'm wrong (probably am), but I think it will need to come back apart...

    Best Steering Box Option for 2001

    Does he have a site? Price? I just tightened up a reman I got a year or two back. Everything else from the pitman arm down, including hubs and balljoints, has been replaced within the year and I'm still not satisfied with the steering... Just looking at options... **EDIT** Found the site...

    Hydroboost issues

    The reason the brakes and steering go stiff is like stated: A) return line restriction means the pump can't flow fluid properly causing manual steering and brakes. B) The pump itself is wore out and can't generate the flow/pressure required to meet the demands of both steering and braking at...

    Remote starter

    Python system, Remote start and security, set to 45 seconds, with 346k on stock injectors sometimes I cycle it twice before I let it try to start to make sure the cylinders are nice an warm...

    Help! 2001 powerstroke suddenly started running rough and blowing blueish white smoke

    I had the high to low open on my cylinder #2 and ended up replacing the injector to get rid of it, rest of them have 342k on them now... Keep it simple, like the others said, check the wiring/connections and go from there.

    New Steering Components

    My truck has 342k on it. 42k ago I rebuilt the entire front end steering. I've worked part-time for several different parts houses over the years and have seen the decline of Moog. What I did is went for an underdog that hasn't had a lot of feedback, MevoTech. My reasoning is I'm a mechanic and...

    7.3 Wiring

    All of them? Your question is kind of vague... The 7.3 is a pretty simple motor, not a lot on them that is considered "unnecessary"...

    Torque Converter 4r100 recommendations

    Normally I put Precision in when I build a transmission, but when my 02's died I decided to be different and run a RacerX Triple disc built to my specs at 30,000 on it so far I've been very impressed. Just another option...

    4r100 learning

    Sounds good. Which Edge do you have? The older one looks like a video game controller (buttons on both sides of screen) and the programming in that edge has been known to hurt stock transmissions if you romp on it enough. I had one given to me and ended up going to a hydra after rebuilding my...

    glow plug coil light on dash or wait to start light

    IIRC its an issue within the dash itself. Some guys replace the dash, others (like me) just live with it. What you could do is run a wire from your relay, 12v side, to an LED on your dash. I use it to see how long my glowplugs stay on for, but I also use it to verify that even though the WTS...

    glow plug coil light on dash or wait to start light

    Your truck was an 01/02 wasn't it? I believe those had issues of random WTS light.. I know mine does it every once in a great while. Being an electrician, I'd assumed you've looked over every inch of your wiring harness for chaffing/cuts? Do all the testing on the GPS? Doing a little searching...

    4r100 learning

    Did you have achip/tuner before you installed this? Mark K. could agree or tell me I should shut up, but you could be noticing a wore out transmission. While your engine was running stock, the transmission may have felt strong but now that you've upped the power levels, an 'ok' transmission...

    Intermittent cel light rough running

    What did you finds out? Everything tested good? Like I said, I did everything only to figure out that code usually means a rebuild/replace is in order...

    Intermittent cel light rough running

    Ohm it out, if everything looks good, replace injector. I had high to low open on cyl #2 and it only went away after I replaced #2 injector... (Now I have 8 ADs to send in for rebuild >:-) )

    6.0 cooloer install

    The 6.0 Cooler has much bigger lines. I bought a 90 degree brass fitting and some brass threaded nipples to push line onto. I think cooler side was 1/2 or 3/8 and the line side was 1/4 or 5/16 iirc...

    Trans won't stay cool

    No. I have my sensor there and I only ever see a max of 140 while towing. Typically around town I see 100-130 degrees.
