    Random revving and acceleration

    So my work truck is a 2000 GMC 3500 with a 6.5. When it's warm, you've been driving for a while, such as plowing or idling, it'll randomly accelerate, and rev up. It's quite scary actually, especially if you're sitting at a light, plowing (our plow truck) or driving through traffic. It's like...

    different transfer case?

    What's on top of the air cleaner? looks like a mouse has nested! My F350 was trashed when I bought it, the dash mat was nasty from cigarette smoke, ashtrays full of butts, the bed was full of firewood debris, it had almost no brakes, no heater (had to replace heater core and hoses), the carpets...

    F650 gutless

    I had an '07 F650 flatbed tow truck, and it had PLENTY of power, even hauling two cars, one on deck and one behind. I'd get it looked at, because mine ran like a dream. The place I run now, has mostly GM Duratrash, they ride like crap, run like crap and the cabs suck. The F650 Pro loader with...

    Truck camper length

    Ok I have a 8.5" Jayco camper and haul it on my 1 Ton with no issues. It doesn't squat the truck one bit, in fact I often forget it's even back there, as you can't tell until you hit a grade. I load it up pretty heavy too, with food, water, supplies, firewood, etc.. I don't know the weight of...

    Weight limit on an 86 tailgate?

    I would not worry about 900 lbs. I drive my ATV on my tailgate which combined with my weight is about 900 lbs. Many of the side by side ATV's now are over 1,000 lbs I believe. The only thing to worry about is the cables. I replaced both side cables on my F350 tailgate when I repainted the...

    Whats up with Diesel prices? What do you Pay and Where?

    $4.13 here in Palmer Alaska at the Fred Meyers. Bunch of $hit! I have been working on my F350 and want to drive it more, save the miles on my new Tundra.. and now diesel is ridiculous!

    Sticky ignition switch

    I had the same issue.. even with a new steering column it was hard to turn. When the temp hit -20 it was almost impossible. I sprayed some lock lube into the ignition key switch and it turns perfectly now. Before it wouldn't even kick back on its own from Start-On, now it does. I would start...

    Spare Tire Holder

    I don't carry a spare with me. If I got out of town and have my Camper.. I throw it in the camper. Managing a towing company has some benefits, i'd just have somebody haul it into town or wherever.
