    Mornin' folks. Just had an issue come up with 94: While driving the truck will surge a little bit, acting like I suddenly hammered the throttle down. Usually lasts a handful of seconds and then goes back to it's normal sluggish self. Seems to happen once the truck is warmed up a bit, as in, it...

    7.3 bottom IP bolt

    Hey all. I finally made a wrench that could get to that bottom bolt on the IP head to adjust my timing. When I went to loosen it, it was not tight. Went and loosened the other two bolts, adjusted my timing about 1/16" towards passenger side (was at 4.0 BTDC, now at 9.2 BTDC). I pinned the IP in...

    Amsoil Injector cleaner

    Has anyone used Amsoil's diesel injector cleaner/cetane booster to clean up injectors? Any idea if it helps at all or if its just snake oil? Got a local Amsoil guy I might line up my next oil change with and hes asking if I want to throw in some other products.

    E4OD TC engagement

    Hey all. I want to learn more about the functionality of the E4OD that came in these trucks. I have an E4OD that was supposedly rebuilt or serviced in 2014 in my F-SuperDuty.

    Ignition actuator rod replacement continued

    Hey all. I am at a complete loss. The steering column is built like a labyrinth that's not intended to come apart and I am stuck. See attached. I've stripped my column down as much as I can but I can't get the new actuator rod installed. It doesn't fit and the nylon piece in the column seems...

    E4OD Behavior

    Hey all. I have been noticing some odd behavior from my E4OD in my 94 F-Superduty. Transmission shifts great smooth but solid all the way up to 4th gear. Heres where the odd behavior starts. If I press the throttle fairly hard, say accelerating on the highway to pass a slow driver, it seems to...

    Interesting gauge mounts

    Hey all, I am installing a pair of pyrometers in my 94 superduty (I salvaged two banks dynafact guages from junked trucks for super cheap). I dont really like the pillar gauge pod setup, they seem to be cheap and dont mount nicely whenever ive installed them. Who has seen or done it...

    Hey all, So I recently customized my collector pipe to adapt up to a 4" oval transition to 4" Round pipe at the "Y" joint where the pipes are welded together. What do you all use to seal the flange connection to the manifolds? I used a couple donut things I had in my toolbox but they were a...

    So my "new" F-Superduty has this intermittent issue where the starter seemed to be not engage fully sometimes, causing it to make that horrific wine as the teeth spin by without engaging the flexplate. Starter looked old so I bought a new powermaster unit and installed it yesterday. Found that...
