    Odd hum from front end

    left wheel bearing it probably loose or worn. best to do both at the same time and be sure to follow the proper torquing sequence with all of the components put in the proper order on the spindle.

    ATF fluid change....

    Some TC will have a drain plug, others will not....my 97 does. If you don't have a drain plug on the TC there is a procedure to pump the fluid out by disconnecting the cooler line going to the rear of the transmission. I've never had to do that procedure since I have the drain plug on the TC...

    ATF fluid change....

    Mercon (dexron) is what was originally spec'd for the e4od/4r100 transmission. Stick with that plus two bottles of lubegard red and you'll be fine

    interesting...maybe a new style packaging. Any markings on the plugs themselves? My single bagged ones say BERU GERMANY 0 100 226 138

    ATF fluid change....

    Do not use Mercon5 Valvoline mercon/dexron along with 2 bottles of lubegard red is what I run in my 97 with the e4od transmission (very similar to the "newer" 4r100 in your truck) transmission and tc are original with over 212k miles on it.

    1996 F-Superduty 7.3 won’t stay running

    Are you sure? It should be near the oil filter. Maybe the cord is missing?

    double bag isn't stock, they should only be in the sealed motorcraft bag FWIW

    1996 F-Superduty 7.3 won’t stay running

    remove valve covers and look for oil coming from the injector spouts while cranking. All 8 injectors should be leaking the same amount of oil, indicating that they are firing. Block heater work? Try plugging the truck in for at least 3 hours prior to attempting to start. How have you confirmed...

    If their legit in the sealed baggies then you got about 1/2 off...not bad.

    Heat is turning cold... then hot... then cold... etc.

    HVAC control issue. Blend door is probably not holding and bypassing the heater core at times making the heat go to cold air and then back again.

    HELP!!!!!!!!

    I would have just stuck with the mechanical fuel system, but if I was installing an electric fuel pump I would have it powered constantly with ignition "on" and have a kill switch mounted in the cab for when I was doing something that required the ignition to be on with the engine off. I...

    1997 7.3 powertroke E350 no start

    where is this "kam fuse" located? I've never heard of this fuse. instead of wiring a voltmeter and installing an oil gauge, best bet is to get a scanner that can log as you drive to see what your sensor are reading when it quits. My money would be on the IPR itself, or the solenoid, or the...

    HELP!!!!!!!!

    Absolutely. My SD 7.3 powers the electric fuel pump as soon as the key is turned to on, and times out after 30 seconds or so. I would reconfigure one way or another so that you have fuel pressure as soon as the key is turned to on. Even the mechanical fuel pumps on the OBS trucks build...

    P0603 injector control Module Keep alive Memory Kam Error P1280 Injector Control Pressure Sensor circuit low. KAM error is common on stock trucks, more so when chipped ICP isn't showing the proper voltage for expected oil pressure according to the PCM I'd be the IPR itself or the IPR solenoid...

    T444e problems

    you're losing fuel pressure/flow because of the trash in the tank that is clogging the strainer. You need to drop the tank(s) and clean them out and replace whatever is contributing to the trash. That's why the truck stalls out. spectra makes tanks for the OBS fords not sure about an...

    what oil did you use ?

    T444e problems

    2500 miles? Throwing away money imo, i'd do at least 5k with a good synthetic oil. I run rotella 5w-40 @ 5k intervals (about an oil change per year for me) If i drove more I'd stretch it out to 10k miles.

    oil level could have been low or poor oil quality. Fresh oil does wonders for these HEUI engines

    T444e problems

    inspection plug is on top of the HPO reservoir, need an allen key to remove. Oil should be pretty close to the top, if it's low when the truck stalls then I'd suspect the LPOP can't keep up with oil demand.

    Will a 99 automatic trans and motor fit in a 92?

    A 7.3 IDI is pretty obvious from a 7.3 PSD, since the IDI will have the injector lines visible, while the PSD will have nothing but the valve covers showing on top. I'd bet it's a turbo'd IDI unless someone did a lot of work to swap it over to a PSD

    T444e problems

    can you log data while this is occuring? Next time it stalls out, measure the oil level in the HPO reservoir through the inspection plug. Should be no lower than 1" from the top. Also check if the fuel bowl is full.

    Will a 99 automatic trans and motor fit in a 92?

    what year powerstroke/trans was transplanted into the 92? If you locate the PCM the box code may tell the story.

    So the truck has power at WOT but then shuts off when you let off of the pedal?
