    Blue Smoke while accelerating

    Update: I have not had the time to adjust the pump timing yet, but I checked out my exhaust and there is a puddle of oil sitting in my exhaust tip. I may just rip off the turbo tomorrow and check the exhaust turbine to see if it wet.

    Blue Smoke while accelerating

    It does use a bit of oil, but is a leaky engine. Also I do not know how old the injectors or pump is. I have owned the truck for 3 years and have not changed either.

    Blue Smoke while accelerating

    1990 7.3 Idi turbo I have a large amount of blue smoke on acceleration and while towing. I don’t have any way right now to check compression, but the overall performance of the engine has not changed. I checked blow by and it was normal as well. I have a road draft tube instead of a cdr...

    E4OD Peoblems! Need help

    Ok, I checked the TPS voltage First I started off by just making sure it was getting 5v. Than I checked the return voltage ( should be about 1v ). It was 3.8v at idle and the voltage dropped as I “gave it fuel” Going to start by replacing the TPS Have you ever heard of this happening?

    Trans issues

    I know this isn't the greatest sample but it's dark and raining outside! It looks a little dark in color, it might smell a little burnt also but I'm going to need to get a larger sample once the weather clears

    Trans issues

    I can't catch a break! 1990 f250 7.3l , 180k , jasper e4od. I was having some problems with my truck not shifting when it should and down shifting when it shouldnt. I would be going 45 mph and my speedo would be jumping up and down from 15 mph to 35. So I replaced the speed sensor on the...

    IDI HELP NEEDED!!!

    Just tried to manually shift and it still does the same thing. Part of me think that it might be 2 different problems that hit at the same time. #1 like you said, something just went wrong with the tack like the sensor. #2 I think I might possibly have a bad neutral safety switch. From what I...
