    One rear brake locks up

    Several things could cause your issues, I had similar issues a while back. I'd recommend the below. Do the easy checks first and maybe you'll get lucky with an easy adjustment fix. Check for a frozen parking brake cable. Look under the bed where the brake cable splits to the right and left...

    ATS Turbo original literature and instructions

    The original E4OD in 1989 shifted slow (my F350 is an '89 model), shifting was computer controlled. This slow shift caused "clutch friction heat damage and overheating of the fluid and converter causing more damage" according to the ATS letter on the transmission. I don't remember the exact...

    ATS Turbo original literature and instructions

    Did I kill my jump pack, or my battery, or both?

    I'd recommend charging the batteries with a good 6 to 10 amp charger overnight if possible. Trickle chargers and solar chargers can passivate lead acid batteries. A good high amp charger can sometimes burn the passivation/plating off. IDIBronco is correct. Voltage may look good, but capacity...

    How hot is too hot?

    I know with your extensive effort, it's not this, but just to add to the conversation... What ratio antifreeze/water are you at? I had similar issues on a Perkins diesel in my tractor. The float/ball type indicators are worthless. I had way too much antifreeze. I got a refractometer type...

    Fuel Seperator Leaking

    I can't really see what you're talking about in the picture, but years ago, I had same/similar problem. Replaced o-rings, no issues since then. I'm sure there's videos somewhere on the internet. I seem to remember finding the correct size/type o-rings was the hard part. Does this help: or
