    Starting and Trans issues after removing ambulance box

    Pretty sure there's no third brake light prior to '94 or '95, but as others have said the trans controller requires the expected resistance value of the OE rear brake lights to function properly.

    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    Here's the ATSG manual and a couple references that are also pretty good. Also if you choose to upgrade some parts in the valve body or pump, stick with one brand of upgrades. Like buy Sonnex kits or Transgo Kits, don't buy some of each. I was told by Sonnex years ago when I did mine that they...

    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    This just popped up on YouTube from R&D Performance. Not a lot of details but Justin evidently put a 4R100 in his truck. The video was posted yesterday but it says content is from 2017 so who knows how long he’s had it done now but seems to run pretty nicely. He mentions in the video he’s...

    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    Find the ATSG e4od rebuild manual and read through it to find all the availiable updates that were done through out its life cycle to help you pick the best version for what you want. I'm pretty sure there is a copy of them on this site in one of the older posts, give it a search. The 4R100 has...

    1989 Ford f-350 7.3L IDI 4x4 (2900) original miles

    Not quite right, the last digit on the Hobbs meter is a 1/10 hr so equivalent mileage at 30mph would be in the 10k range. Closer to 14k if you averaged 40 over the lifetime. Cool truck though, it does check the “conversion” truck box but not in the way most would prefer.

    96 - 94.5 powerstroke part swap can I do it?

    I’m pretty sure the the pre ‘96 pcms supported obdII diagnostics but the wires weren’t run. I’ve read about how you can add the wires on other sites but I don’t have specifics or remember which site to go to a good google search should turn them up. Many of the 94-97 pcms are interchangeable if...

    7.3 Powerstroke swapped bricknose

    You need to determine the year of the engine and go find that EVTM/wiring diagram for the engine and that truck. The superduty 7.3 has different wiring from the OBS 7.3. Then get the EVTM/wiring diagrams for your year of truck. Now get a fresh notebook and start mapping out powers, signals, and...

    Steering shaft coupler/ rag joint upgrades

    Another thing that commonly wears out on these shafts is the nylon bushing in the sliding section of the shaft. That accounts for a surprising amount of play in the system, usually more than the rag joint. I’m not aware of a good replacement currently in the market. Some have tried different...

    big block chevy fueling for your IDIT+!!

    If you get a chance to try again, consider the actuator arm off of an original fuel pump. Those had a different shape and might give you a better engagement or at least a different set of options for modifications. Also make sure the diaphragm is rubber that’s rated for diesel. Some rubbers will...

    7.3 IDI Turbo Harmonic Balancer

    International used both ends of the crankshaft to do the harmonic dampening. The harmonic balancer and the flywheel work together as a set. In the real world mismatched components might live a long time but the original engineering showed that to maximize the life of components and minimize...

    Wastegated Banks turbo parts

    You’ve probably solved this by now but if banks won’t sell it, just find an aftermarket watergate actuator. You can probably even find a bracket in the aftermarket to mount it to the turbo. The turbo frame size is what dictates the accessories used and that turbo frame was widely used for other...

    Removing ATS 093 turbo from 1992 7.3 IDI

    The turbo feed pipe on the ATS is supposed to split in the middle. Theoretically you pull the down pipe down and out of the way, then unbolt the two bolts holding the turbo drain/pedestal to the back of the manifold and presto, you lift the whole assembly up and out of the truck. If your feed...

    E4od questions/trouble

    If you want to consider rebuilding it yourself check the details and links in the threads below. I’m pretty sure at least one of the ASTG manuals mentioned in there is posted here on OB I thought there were links in here to the other one as well but I can’t find those posts right now. Most of...

    My first E4OD…what is the issue?

    I’ve never driven an ‘90-‘91 E4OD but I have driven and rebuilt the E4ODs in a ‘92 and my current ‘97. Both were rebuilt to the ‘97+ spec updates. Neither of them go into neutral when the accelerator is released. As I mentioned earlier however, the torque converter does unlock and re-lock when...
