    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    Finaly got the 1991 transfer case reassembled and installed in the truck yesterday. To make it work for my truck I had to install the output shaft, speedometer gear and output housing from my old transfer case to the new transfer case.

    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    I am in the process of swaping the output shafts and housings today. I would have been done yesterday if the two different cheap snap ring pliers that I got from the local auto parts shops were worth a darn. I am going to try to find a better pair of snap ring pliers so I can finishing the...

    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    So I just wasted my time and money on a transfer case that will not let my E4OD transmission shift?

    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    Trying to install a BW 1356 transfer case from a 1991 truck but the rear output housing is missing the port for the speedometer cable. Will my 1990 diesel truck still run without the speedometer and the sensor with it hooked up?

    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    I just put the rear of the truck on jack stands and with the engine off I could turn the rear drive shaft by hand in every gear except 4L and I could hear clicking noises comming from the transfer case which is a 1356-47 according to the id tag. All linkages seem to be fine.

    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    The truck was stationary when I tried to put the transmission into park. The engine was at idle and the trasmission made the grinding noise when I tried to put it in park.

    Do you think it is the E4OD or transfer case?

    Wednesday morning I was driving from Fort Mohave, AZ to Kingman, AZ. A distance of about 40 miles with an elevation change of from 500ft to 3700ft. As I was starting down the summit into Kingman my truck made a very loud screeching noise for about 30 seconds and the truck lost all power to the...

    How to remove rear fuel tank?

    I was able to syphon fuel out of my rear tank with a 6 foot piece of 5/8" garden hose. The trick is to use containers with openings as low to the ground as possible to keep the syphon flowing.

    Broke down

    If you haven't already done it, it might be a good idea to put some good fuel treatment in your tank to help deal with any fuel contanmination.

    3g at a loss

    Maybe you could run a ground cable from the alternator case to the battery ground? That's what I did when I converted my truck to 3G.

    Things that go bump // Back up camera recommendation ??

    I installed a Smart Hitch Backup Camera & Sensor System on my truck after buying my travel trailer. The only drawback is it is hard wired to the monitor so I had to drill a hole in my fire wall for the cable. However it works really well day or night. It has a hitch mode that helps you line up...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Sounds like you might have a broken fuel pickup in that tank.

    Diesel Rx Glow plugs

    Below zero temps will really make any weakness in your trucks starting system show. When I lived in Minnesota I had to add battery blankets in addition to the block heater to make my truck easy to start when it got below zero. The battery blankets made the biggest improvement to my starting the...

    Pressure Chamber/Turbo Hat to Turbo 'O' Ring source?

    I lost the air-breather to intake gasket on my truck one time and went to the local Napa auto parts asked for a replacement and he couldn't find a listing for it. So I asked for a gasket for a Holly 4 barrel carburator and he had it in stock and it fits fine on the intake. Hope this helps.

    Aftermarket thermostat that I can mount above the factory one for ease of replacement?

    On my truck which is a 1990 f250 I had to remove the glove box to remove and replace the heater core. It wouldn't have been hard if I had a warm garage to work in, but I had to do it outside in the wind and cold and I had no way to warm up the heater hose ends and had to cut them off the old...

    Aftermarket thermostat that I can mount above the factory one for ease of replacement?

    Are you shure your heater core is not blocked? I lost heat in my truck a couple of winters ago and had to replace the heater core on a nice balmy 20* day.

    650cca vs 850cca group 65 battery

    First winter in Minnesota the below zero temps combined with a bad starter killed two 850 cca DieHard batteries I had in my truck. I replaced them with two 650 cca Walmart batteries, rebuilt the starter, and added battery blankets to each battery and kept them and the block heater plugged in...

    Inline vs plug block heater

    Battery blankets really help when the temps stay below freezing. When I was living in Minnesota I lost a set of Diehard batteries the first winter when it got below zero for the month of January. I replaced them with the cheap Walmart 650 CCA batteries and battery blankets and they lasted for...

    Crank no start with ignition key, with ignition key on and jumping the starter relay truck starts

    You might want to check the ignition switch that is mounted down on the steering column. They have a nasty habit of partially separating the top half from the bottom half which then causes intermittant connections and starting problems. If your truck is like my 90 you will have to take the...

    Finally got around to testing, and then replacing the glow plugs.. 4 stuck.

    When I lived in southern Minnesota my 1990 7.3L was hard to cold start when the tempurature got below 40* even with new batteries and glow plugs. When it got below zero I had to add battery blankets to both batteries and keep them and the block heater plugged in or the truck was very hard to...
