    Missing after Mudding

    Well I had a 2004 F350 which haunted me with engine problems the minute I bought it, not to mention got an amazing 13.5mpg...so the only other choice was the Chevy. Which is getting 18mpg and pulls my boat and camper at the posted speed limit unlike both the 6.0 and my trusty ol IDI.

    Missing after Mudding

    I have an 04 LB7 Duramax, and decided to play in some rain water. Once I hit the puddle, motor skipped out, but I didn't think anything of it, just thought it was the traction control kicking in. After I hit the puddle a few more times with the same patterns, I noticed I was puffing like a...

    6.ohNO Mistake

    Snicklas, to be completely honest, your posts in this thread are what lead me to buying the 6.0. I understand that the motor is "problematic", but I have known just as many people personally who have had problems with both Cummins and DMaxxs. I would have preferred to buy a 7.3, but it wasn't an...

    So to check the egr just pull it and look for condensation? And would that cause me to lose MPG?

    6.ohNO Mistake

    So I have posted bunch in the IDI forums since I also own a '91 F350 4x4 with a 7.3l IDI and E4OD Tranny. Switched professions and needed a truck with a few less hiccups and better fuel mileage. I just purchased a used 2004 F350 with the 6.0l Powerstroke and the Auto tranny. Drove it sorta hard...

    Discontinued Rim

    So I found the Pro Comp at a local 4 Wheel Parts store for $130...it'll be here in a week and a half. Thanks for the help!

    Discontinued Rim

    Haha. Yup, that's the one. I tried finding it in their catalog, but could only find the 101 which doesn't have the "beadlock" bolts around the lip. How'd you find it? Thanks!

    Running Hot

    Thanks so much for all the help...as usual, icanfixall has been more than helpful. Now, for the coolant flush, I hooked one up in my ranger a couple years ago using my heater hoses...for some odd reason, those have been cut out and capped in this truck. How would I go about hooking up the...

    Running Hot

    I understand the gauge probably isn't perfect, but it's atleast a reference point. When you see the needle creeping up to H and you smell coolant, it doesn't take a good gauge to let you know it's getting hot...I just need to know what I can do to ensure it stays cool towing about 7,500lbs at...

    Running Hot

    and 210 is considered hot right?

    Running Hot

    What kind of range are we looking for on these motors? I am pretty trusting of the gauge that is on it for the most part, but I wouldn't put anything past these old electronics. Haha. I blew past the "normal range the other day, so I pulled over to let it cool, and when it didn't come down after...

    Discontinued Rim

    I am currently running Eagle Alloy Series 102 Wheels that are 16x10 and run the standard 8 Lug pattern for our trucks. Well, I had a wheel come off the other day from having the lug nuts strip out after being over torqued and now I can't find a replacement wheel since the manufacturer...

    Running Hot

    So I had to replace my radiator at the same time I had my heads replaced since I blew the bell housing APART...before I parked the truck, it would never go above the "r" on "normal" even when we would push it hard. Now it cruises around town right around the "m". This is a big problem since I...

    Dana 60 Troubles

    Hey guys, I'm back with more questions. I have been driving my truck lately and was pretty convinced the front drivers hub was going out. Lifted the truck up, and yup, about 1/2" of play in the wheel w/o load on it. Took of the wheel and Brake Caliper, then loosened the cover with the 6 torx...

    Shifty Shifting

    Just for fun, I called the local dealership to see if they even knew what the part was...and after talking to service and parts for about 20 minutes, they figured out they had one hidden in the back! I picked it up for $7.61 w/tax! Got it in and fired the truck up and all my shifting issues are...
