    High Idle Solenoid Idea

    Get a stick the right length from seat to throttle, stick the stick in when leaving the truck overnight, check it out when remote starting for 900 RPM. :D

    Diesel line routing

    If your gonna keep the FSV, you can take it apart and clean it out, it more than like has some rubber in it from a deteriorated pickup screen in the tank, one in each tank, that screen (shower head) usually falls off. The fuel suction/supply is 3/8", fuel return is 5/16". You may have the...

    Intake backfire?

    Don't know exactly what Lucas oil treatment your using, but if it's the thickner, that's a NO NO. The thickner is used in Hi Speed Drag vehicles. After a 4 second run the oil is drained and engine completely torn down. If your selling it, makes you Wealthy, if using it, well...

    At the end of my wits... Help!!!

    iF you do take the FSV apart, drill out the rivets on the swedged side just enough to clear it, then punch out the rivet. use a#6 self tapping screw to put it back together.

    The O'ring is probably hard letting it leak. No way to get to it easily.

    glow plug controller bad?

    Since you replaced the glow plugs they should be fine. Your problem with only a short GP cycle is probably the GP relay it self, just replace it. Make sure it's a GP relay, parts stores will try to sell you a starter relay, they look the same. Contacts in your GP relay are probably burnt and not...

    Possibly the stupidest idea I've had to date...

    I think he should put a Mack engine in it.

    Yet another air in fuel thread!!!!

    The return line off the filter that you eliminated should be on there. It's purpose is to bleed off any small amount of air that is left in the very top of the filter , the fitting has a very small orifice in it. At idle, with the return blocked off, it won't make a difference, but at just about...

    MONSTER TRANSMISSION

    Codes 23 and 63 are because you didn't hold the in cab throttle to the floor. Code 99 is the EPC (Electronic Pressure Control) solenoid. The trans connector on the pass side may be corroded or not seated all the way in. Do not use a screw driver to disconnect it, grab the wires to pull it...

    Fuel screw wont budge?

    The reason the fuel adjusting screw is so hard to turn, is that the screw head is pushing against the C ring that adjust the rollers out. Of course if the screw head breaks off, this is what will happen the first time the engine is run, it jams the rotor and shears the input shaft. If that...

    Auto Trans Limp Mode Question

    That's great if you have a wallet with $4000 bucs in it. LOL.

    Auto Trans Limp Mode Question

    When the OD lite flashes, that indicates your in so called limp mode. There are three things to cause that, the VSS on the rear diff, the tach on the IP gear housing, the TPS/FIPL. If your speedometer quits working, it's the VSS. It's also possible your if you go into "free wheeling" like you...

    145* hmmmm t-stat or sender?

    Torque Cams definitely make the coolant flow faster, the results is the coolant don't pickup the spark plug heat.

    7.3 Oil Filters

    I get my oil filters at a Navistar/International dealership. They don't sell anything other than the FL1995 for the 7.3, that's all I see on there shelf. Pretty sure they are made by Wix.

    open all of your items from e-bay

    I don't get what your referring to, but I guess it's the mirrors. I've got a good OEM Pass side one you can have. I put two new ones on my 99, towing extension and heated. They where like $47 each. A damn tree moved closer to the driveway somehow.

    Turbo Trans Dipstick and DP clamp

    I've got a new S shaped trans dip stick tube but not the dipstick itself. I can measure my dipstick length. You can use any oil dipstick as long as it's the right length, or cut it to length. PM me if interested in the tube.

    Water? 7.3 I.D.I.

    You say the engine oil was badly contaminated with diesel fuel. That can happen with severely leaking injectors (needle stuck open), but you should be black smoking like crazy. Happened to me on a 780 mile run. Drained at least a gallon over fill out of the crankcase. I was pulling a 25 ft...

    So Reman A/C Compressor shot?

    I see you have an E350. Does it have the dual A/C / Heat system? Probably does with a 72 OZ charge. Set both on MAX COOL and HI fan, Rev to 1500 RPM, charge until frost shows up on the LOW side line to the accumulator, bleed off until the frost disappears back into the coil. That should give...
