    4r100 Excessive line pressure!!

    Ditto on the valve body kit being an issue, is this the tugger 2 kit? with the separator plate? Like maybe the plate is wrong. Or maybe a stuck valve in the valve body somewhere.

    Hard steer question/issue

    We always just did it on concrete. No fancy turn tables. It was usually pretty obvious.

    Hard steer question/issue

    That is really weird that it only happens with bigger tires. I wonder what changes. There is a spec for ball joint binding. You take the tie rod off, put a bolt in the spindle and turn the tire with a torque wrench. I can't remember I think it is like 80ft lbs. If it takes more than that, then...

    Single Cab Passenger Window Not Working

    Found a wiring diagram for a f150, maybe check the wire colors and see if they match what you have. But you could have a bad harness, shorted where it passes through the door. Or someplace else. Also could be a bad master switch on the driver's door.

    Tuning the 7.3 in current times

    Can't wait to hear your thoughts on this. I agree that people are not sending tunes that match your setups anymore. Maybe injectors but that is about it. My boss at work bought a 7.3 excursion that had already been modded. He hates every tune he has tried so far and wishes the truck was back...

    Did you replace the overdrive sprag when you were in there? https://globaltransmissionparts.com/e4od-overdrive-sprag/

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    This truck is still giving me problems. Been trying to drive it and tolerate it but it keeps popping off the fuel return line on #7 every couple of weeks. Then it is dumping fuel on the ground. It is not like anything you notice, I get out of the truck and smell diesel fuel. Look underneath and...

    7.3 no start

    Do you have the ability to put it on a battery maintainer? I did that on my 1995 and it has pretty awesome, truck is always ready to go. I don't screw around trying to start it and let it run every month or two. It may sit for 6 months and it will fire right up and go. Things like the brake...

    Tuning the 7.3 in current times

    Y'all got me in the mood to try jelibilt. When i get the truck out in the spring maybe I will order some tunes and see.

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    I suppose it is possible. My 2016 runs very similar to what my 14 used to. I actually didn't like the extra boost and shifting of the 16, but now the 16 is much nicer to drive. If I give this truck 1/4 throttle at stop light it will snap you head back and spin the tires. Got to be really...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    Just an update for kicks. I almost trust the truck again. It has been running fine. But still, have way more power off the line than I used to and it doesn't run the same on the upper end. Trying to talk myself out of screwing with it. Haven't watched fuel pressures during a hard pull like...

    6.7 extremely long crank

    The injectors are not supposed to have any return flow, or at least very little. Which was odd because since I had a no start I figured one would be dumping fuel like crazy. Or I was hoping one was. On top of that, the injectors need back pressure to operate properly. So the test really is not...

    6.7 extremely long crank

    You can pinch off the return line with a clamp tool, even a vise grips if you are super careful. I am thinking I had like a 3/16" line. But really it doesn't matter, it will either flow fuel or not. You can run it without a hose and if fuel comes out it will make a mess but you will know that...

    CRAZY UNDIAGNOSABLE NOISE AFTER Fuel system replacement

    Question, so on the 10.3 mm, Do you need programming or does that work on stock engine? i was curious about that and didn't find the answer. To me the larger pistons mean faster starts, more fuel pressure available all the time, but I don't want to increase fueling.

    CRAZY UNDIAGNOSABLE NOISE AFTER Fuel system replacement

    Most projects that I do for me turn out like this. Silly but just my life. On the same note I didn't run the truck until it died. Tried to fix it before it got that far. The truck runs different. I get a puff of smoke on take off. Never used to do that. You barely touch the throttle and the...

    CRAZY UNDIAGNOSABLE NOISE AFTER Fuel system replacement

    I honestly have no idea what to tell people. Bought the motorcraft reman kit. Thought I was buying decent parts. Certainly could have done it cheaper. CP4 was dead out of the box. I think one injector is bad. haven't dealt with the injector yet. It is not the same truck. Top end is lacking...

    Stumped again

    Can you just unplug the IDM and plug the donor in next to it and try it? Don't know on the ex. On my 95 it bolts on the fender well and is super easy to swap. You did say 3k. So that is ok, you have oil. You are right no oil from injectors while cranking means they are not firing. Is it...

    Stumped again

    Agree with checking injectors. Pull a valve cover and see if they are spitting oil while cranking. Have you checked the HPOP reservoir to see if it has oil in it? Don't know if it helps or not, but I manually filled the reservoir after injectors. If it keeps emptying itself then you may have...

    CRAZY UNDIAGNOSABLE NOISE AFTER Fuel system replacement

    I had that noise during my cp4 adventure. The hose I was using with the pressure test port got pinched. For me it was a simple fix. But if that hose doesn't fix your problem I would try another fuel filter.
