    Has anyone permanently sealed their sunroof?

    My go to sealant is the Window weld by 3M. Most parts stores have it. I would open the roof, put a slight bead in the rails and close the roof. then seal the seam on top as well.

    Mileage on newer 6.7s...

    I just bought a used 2016 Platinum. 18k miles on it. $61k. To find something newer. 17+ I felt like I was scraping the bottom of the barrel to find a truck as nice as what I have. with the 2016s I could pick the very tippy top of what is out there and still spend less money. Now my 2014, hmmm...

    Mileage on newer 6.7s...

    My boss at work just ordered a 22 and they told him August of this year. He is pushing me to trade my 14 for something newer. Hard decision I found some 16s with less than 20k on them. the 17+ i am not convinced but looking at an 18 platinum now. Just doesn't seem like there is much to gain...

    Tuning the 7.3 in current times

    Gotta tell you guys, all the love for the hydra, I am disappointed. I think I need custom tunes. I have an old banks towing chip. It is only like 50hp. Maybe less, but it is the nicest driving, shifting program I have ever driven. Even on my 180/0 injectors I would enjoy going back to that...

    swapping 1997 7.3 lower end into 2002 truck

    That is a good point. Fuel pressure check might help diag that too I suppose.

    swapping 1997 7.3 lower end into 2002 truck

    Like fuel pressure spring? too much fuel pressure can hold the injectors open. turbo shouldn't matter, shouldn't have boost at idle anyway. What about something like not hooking up the map/boost sensor? could something have been left off or not plugged in? Have you tried to check for codes?

    Lower end, so you used the 02 injectors?

    2017 DEF level issue

    Sending unit. Sometimes they just get sticky, because the def kind of turns to a crusty salt when it dries. But usually it will need a sending unit. I have heard of guy sticking stuff down the filler neck or beating on the tank to try and break it loose, sometimes it works, sometimes they are...

    Exhaust popping noise

    Hope that is not the case, my 2014 is at 185K now. So far I have had some aftertreatment issues, but thermostat housing leak is the only other thing it has gotten fixed. Oh, it blew a cooler boot off one day it is still running with a cheapo hose clamp on it. Trans acts funny but keeps...

    I believe the picture above is showing at least 2 cracked exhaust valves.

    Upgraded Power Steering Pump Installed

    Looking through that list, of the pumps that come with pulleys it looks like BBB INDUSTRIES 7120116A2 would be the cheapest option.

    Upgraded Power Steering Pump Installed

    Interesting, that was not actually the link I thought I posted. I don't think any of those pulleys are correct. Lets try this. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/ford,1999,e-350,7.3l+v8+diesel+turbocharged,1354496,steering,power+steering+pump,7380

    Upgraded Power Steering Pump Installed

    Just an alternative. I bought the entire pump off Rock Auto for just the pulley. After screwing with shipping might cost $50. Simple and easy. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/ford,1999,e-350,7.3l+v8+diesel+turbocharged,1354496,steering,power+steering+pump+pulley,7381...

    Front driver door speaker not working

    I bought a cheap Bt stereo from advance auto parts as a temporary until I decide if I want to do double din, or flip up or what. Anyway it was like $50 and it has been really awesome, can't believe how good the sound is out of that cheap liitle thing.

    another e4od question

    There is a seal around the convertor. Do you have oil dripping from the bellhousing/inspection cover? Pretty common for them to start leaking.

    Rear a/c line

    These work well, have used them on many SUV's with rear AC You can get different sizes, some different lenths. You can also have a hose made with a compressin fitting on the end of it...

    Pitted cylinders

    I wouldn't go any corser. I have run worse and not had oil burning problems.

    P262A

    Certainly wouldn't think that would have anything to do with engine codes. I wonder if Ford has a different definition than the one we are finding online.

    P262A

    I haven't found anything either. Do you have a tuner? Could it be related to some other add on? When I put my min/max on my 2014 I had some problems getting the truck to drive properly again.

    Pitted cylinders

    I agree that spot on the cam is not important being a bearing journal. In my younger days I strived for perfection and would never have ran it. In my older days I realize I have thrown a lot of money at things that didn't need it. that spot on the bearing journal does not need to be replaced.
