    6.7 Excursion

    Yes it will sling some oil out and make a mess but it will not hurt the case or run it dry. Just top it off when you are done. My son, who has a 2003, not sure if that compares to yours, we fought the same thing. Changed pinion angles multiple times. He put new springs in to control axle wrap...

    Tuning the 7.3 in current times

    I honestly don't remember. I do remember modified non modified transmission being an option but otherwise they just had tunes for stock injectors. I am also on a 1995. FF is Full Force Diesel. I bought my 180/0 injectors from them. Custom tunes have become canned tunes. Like someone else...

    Tuning the 7.3 in current times

    I do have the tunes, but I think the only thing available to me was stock setup. Nothing for my bigger injectors.

    Tuning the 7.3 in current times

    I have FF tunes, TW tunes and one other currently that I honestly cannot remember, On a hydra. I am running 180/0 injectors. Intercooler, .84 housing, few other mods. Anyway. The TW 4 position chip I had like 10-15 years ago was awesome. Can't imagine it could get better than that. that...

    Just a heads up...

    That is nasty. Glad it was an easy fix. We fought that same problem on the air pump for the rear bags on my pickup. We actually took a rubber work glove. Put the relay in it and wrapped it best we could with electrical tape. Even that would only last a couple years. Finally moved the relay...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    It actually has the LPFP from my 2016 in it right now. And my 2014 LPFP is in the 2016. They both run exactly the same PSI. The 2016 lpfp has 50k miles on it. More psi would be great but I think this is the way Ford designed it. I want to clean the MAF and MAP but eventually I need to...

    Need a new trans, looking for recommendations

    I have a GV behind a E4OD. Ran it a lot of years. Would not do it again. Seems like it was broke half the time. The GV electronics were garbage. I finally just put it on a toggle switch. took it off when the coast clutch gear broke, again. Fixed the unit but have not had the desire to put it...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    Hasn't changed. Runs 62-63 psi. I swapped o-rings on the return harness on those injectors. If they were leaking they are not now. Still questioning 1 injector. But no time to screw with it right now. Thinking back, when I pulled injectors to have them tested I never marked them. I figured...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    Thanks! It is getting there. Finally got some road miles on it yesterday. I have 3 injectors that seem to have a little diesel seeping from somewhere. I need to re tighten the high pressure fuel line, But I think it is the return line. Going to pull the return and replace the o-ring on those...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    Truck is back together. I am not sure it is done yet though. On the test drive I was getting a puff of black smoke when stepping on accelerator. I am deleted but never had that before. Also every now and then I feel a random shake. Might be ac compressor, but I am super sensitive right now...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    Okay trying to add something that hopefully will help someone else in the future. I had mentioned that I read where the VCV, or FCV (the valve on top of the pump) Whatever your acronym is, That is buzzes or makes noise. They do, 3 out of the 4 I had did make a buzzing noise. But only 1 of...

    It runs! Where to start? New pump in, It started. So it was the pump, it was always the pump. This is the first crank after priming fuel system. I actually didn't expect it to start. It started before the pids changed. Just an interesting note. Now trying to figure out what useful...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    New sensor in. Interesting note. My 2016 reads 320 psi KOEO. New bosch sensor reads 332 psi, KOEO as well. No change in reading while cranking, still dead. Got me to thinking, so I put the old sensor back in. Plugged the return line to the tank. My psI went from 42 to 96 and stayed. It did...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    Of course warranty is not going to be easy. Spent some time on the phone with the supplier. Went through all the troubleshooting I have done. All he wanted to know is the code I am getting. Which is P2291. Injector pressure low while cranking. He says, before we swap the pump. I need to...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    I found a halfway decent diagram of the CP4. Just for kicks, because at this point the warranty process is started, but I would imagine I have a problem in what they are calling the adjuster? I suppose it could be a one way check ball, or even the internal pressure relief. Kind of think if...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    I am glad you had me swap it. At least now I know it is right. Did not make a difference. I just got a dead pump out of the box apparently. I found a 7/8 deep socket fits the shaft and keyway just right to turn the pump. Getting that last half tooth was tough but I was also looking at it...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    I can swap it, I got time keyway at 12 o'clock is keyway at 12 o'clock. If piston one is tdc with keyway at 12 oclock then piston is at tdc everytime keyway is at 12 o'clock Which leads me to the question I came to ask. How are these pumps valved? I need to find a breakdown. If this was...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    New vcv. No change. I think I am at the point of another cp4 or pcm? Cp4 is stupid. It turns it should pump. Even if it is pumping air. And if it was just air I should see a blip on my rail pressure right? Yet nothing. So I thought, what if it isn't spinning at all. Since I am headed towards...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    I had some time yesterday. So I did verify that the pump on the 2014 and 2016 are the same. So I swapped them. No change. The 2014 pump is currently on the 2016 running and the 2016 pump is on the 2014 with no change in rail pressure. Hopefully my VCV shows up today. If that doesn't fix it I...

    Extended cranking, fuel system tests.

    I will add it to my todo list. Any idea what diameter the cam gear is? Or the drive ratio? If the pump to cam is 2:1 then turning the engine over the marks will probably line up but a different mark will show on the cam gear.
