    Climate control not working well

    Isn't there a mod to kick the fan on manually? Heard of it but never seen it done.

    Bump/Thump/Engine note change at 1200 RPM

    When I have the engine at a high idle, It will randomly thump/bump and it is noticeable by just sitting in the truck. When it does it, The engine note also changes. Same at low idle but not as often. Sounds like its coming from the lower right side but with manual HVAC off which I'm having an...

    Climate control not working well

    Why don't the 6.0's ever really heat up to operating temp without EGR and with it takes them forever? I know Diesels are cold blooded but still. Mines takes 10 minutes at 1200 RPM to get damn close and even then T-stat isn't open....

    Exterior temp off, Long warm up time.

    Thanks for the oil suggestions. Slept my whole time off so nothing got done.... Go figure. Hoping to get it done tomorrow. Now, Even though it is 30* out, Console still says its 42* out! Talk about way off! Anyone have any troubleshooting ideas?

    Exterior temp off, Long warm up time.

    "ALWAYS!" This truck has never had ANY kind of additive put in before I bought from my father. He thought it was all snake oil and he didn't need it.... Then again, He would talk of the days when a car that had 50K miles was worn totally out. I'll try the hot shot stuff and see what and how it...

    Exterior temp off, Long warm up time.

    Believe I got the exterior temp sensor issue cleared. Pulled it off and it had dust caked in and around the pins with grease coming out of the bottom. Cleaned it some and it appears to read more accurately. I haven't screwed with the HVAC yet as its be 30* and WINDY AS HELL lately. Going...

    Because there are a ton of assholes who come down here, strip our parts and take them up north to people who know salt destroys metal but still neglect the trucks and buy the stuff where in 10 years its gone again.

    Bricknose Superduty Auto Brake Pedal and Bracket

    Lol. True. I've had this one for 2 years and haven't driven it at all. When it did run, It ran for 3 minutes with water and either blew a head gasket or cavatation victim at one time. Was running at idle then shut down like key was pulled. Went to re-crank and hydro-locked. Pulled all the GPs...

    Exterior temp off, Long warm up time.

    Can't hear the fan but I can read the RPMs. The T-Stat is probably failed open as it is showing the signs and the cap does need to be replaced as it is OEM from '04. I'll see what the local shop wants to change the t-stat out today. To damn cold for me right now and I work nights. Thanks. I'll...

    I am too, Lol. Got a truck that doesn't run, Has no front end, 2 cabs with no interior..... All because of rust I can't repair......

    Exterior temp off, Long warm up time.

    On my '04, The exterior temp sensor usually reads 4* higher than normal where as on my '15 wrecker, its spot on. Could this be the sensor and is it the same as the mid-90's panther cars? And whether I'm at high idle engagement or low idle, It still takes this truck 10 minutes to warm up in...

    What do you plan on doing with the harness? I have a 87 250 I'm trying to install the lights on.

    6.0 breathes like exhaling?

    Everytime I turn to start the truck, after the GP light shuts off, Sounds like it exhales right infront of me. Sometimes I can feel it. What is it? I looked and couldn't see anything. And I have a huge fuel consumption problem.... Computers lying to me, Lol.
