    powerstroke stalling when cold

    a month ago... ...changed all filters, still acts the same, no gelling problems. Seems directly related to engine operating temp and is not intermittent, same predictable PITA every morning.

    powerstroke stalling when cold

    not much to go on... ...sorry for the lack of info. Have not checked for codes so will do that. Truck has had regular oil changes. Cold? Sometimes. Live in central Ontario, about an hour north of Toronto, daytime temps around the freezing point these days. Truck has been ultra reliable until...

    powerstroke stalling when cold

    hi, need some help. Wife has 2001 F250 SuperDuty, 7.3 Powerstroke, 360,000 kilometres (~200,000 miles) on it.

    dual mass??? single mass???

    thanks! ...as usual you guys have cut straight to the heart of the matter... so the DMF was a misguided effort...somewhere there was a director of engineering who let this one get off the rails. Where was Bill Ford when all this was going on??? so an SMF will not turn a ZF into scrap...

    dual mass??? single mass???

    OK, I admit I've been driving automatic transmissions for too long...(E4OD's and C6's). found an '89 F250 4x4 with a manual trans... but folks here seem to despise the dual mass flywheel. Why? Didn't some bright young engineer at Ford think it was a better idea? So...looking to educate myself...

    Fuel tank pickup/sender wiring?

    me too... ...both gauges are pegged past full until the last few gallons, then dive to empty. I drive by the odometer. No answers, only questions... cheers,

    '84 F250 4X4 front axle?

    thanks! ...might go take a look at it, not too far from me, body looks good in the pics. It's an early 6.9 but if it has gone this far it should be OK. cheers,

    '94 hood release

    '94 F350 CC followed me home last spring, was running when I parked it. Now battery is dead. Can't get the hood up, release is seized. Grumpy wife says, "Move it before I call the tow truck." The clock is ticking... Help please.....................

    Great price on 6.9 ARP studs.

    nuts...6 pt vs 12 pt OK...I bought an '87 F250 with a 6.9 (body is falling off) so I finally have the engine for my project truck. No turbo in the plans but ARP studs have a certain "cool" factor. What is the advantage/disadvantage of 12 point nuts? thanks,
