    Power Door Locks

    This is not an IDI but maybe I can get some help here as not many people are on the powerstroke board. Here is the problem, my truck was a bank repo when I bought it. I guess when it was repoed they broke the door lock on the drivers side to get in and destroyed the lock and the rods inside...

    Can't build boost

    I can't understand why I can't build boost. I have checked everything, checked for leaks, turned pump up, checked waste gate. I am at the end of things to check. This is a factory turbo set up off a 94 IDI. I can hear the turbo spool up but it just won't build boost, the most I have seen is 1 to...

    Stubborn Oil Leak

    After the new engine was installed I have a oil leak under the turbo where the turbo bolts to the oil drain tube pedestal. And yes I am sure it is not where the tube goes into the valley pan because I can see the oil dripping from the drain tube. Yesterday I pulled the turbo and replaced the...

    Engine coolant temp

    I am back home from a 3 and a 1/2 week job in Texas. While I was gone I had another engine put in my pickup. Have a water temp issue, my temp will go from 190* to 205* and then back to 195* and back and forth. Because the new engine came from a 91 and mine is a 93 I thought the water pump might...

    Engine Change

    Due to 3 things, loss of oil pressure, a knock in the engine and a large oil consumption, a gallon in 600 miles, I have decided to change engines. Now the good part, I happened to talk to a good friend of mine today and was telling him of my woe's and he ask why I didn't change engines? He...

    Not Good-Lost some oil pressure

    Well not sure what to do at this point. I lost about 20psi, I know what is going on I think and I'm not sure what to do. I always carried around 63psi when hot on my manual gauge but now it's down around 20 to 25 now. How hard is it to pull the pan with engine still in the truck. Or is it...

    Precup's
