Well I actually made some progress and found that #3 cylinder had no compression so..... I had an offer on the truck and sold it to a good friend that owns a shop that said he was going to completely overhaul it. So Im out of the 6.0game now but I really appreciate all your guys help and wisdom...
sorry guys for my delay on getting back to you. 79jasper i never found anybody with fuel presure gauges so nice dice on checking presures yet. I did notice every so often it puffs a little white and blue smoke. and 94iditurbo73 the coolant was to the low mark. I thankyou both for replying...
Ok so I serviced the truck tonight. I use 15-40 rotella. I changed both fuel filters tuesday night. Now it acts like it is seaching for power unless you really hang your leg in it. I also noticed it pushed some coolant out the coolant reservoir cap. Do I have serious issues or what do I do...
I havent checked fuel pressures yet. I need to find a set I can borrow or have someone hook up to it for me. Do you have to take one of the banjo bolts out or is there a port on the fuel rail for a gauge to screw on.
Ok guys, Ive been searching the forum and have tried a couple of your tricks. Here's what it is and what its doing. Its a 2004 f350 with the 6.0 4x4 automatic. I just bought the truck 3 weeks ago and it has perform flawlessly till about last Thursday. I fired it up to go to work, I let it...
The turbo 400 should last just fine. If you are trying to stay away from computer controlled stuff I would go with the first gen trucks, the intercooler may be a tight fit if you get one out of 1991.5-1993 but it has been done before. If I remember correctly the non intercooled engines were...
Thats good to know. Glad I didn't make the mistake in getting there to fast. I know I can't use a bed off of a 1999 and newer superduty. The same with some of the older. What are some descent beds to look at brand wise. And what years do you think would interchange frame width wise to dads...
Well guys I guess I didn't drive fast enough. Went to go get the truck. When I called him he said to come on out. So I got in the pickup and took off. When I got there walked into the office and told him I was there to get the truck. He looked up at me and said he sold it thirty minutes...
Hey guys my dad has been wanting a aluminum rollback for years. I found one not but 50 miles from where I live. The problem is I don't know what it is worth? The bed has a little damage on the right bed rail. It looks to be complete. The other thing is that it is a 1994 ford f350 the truck...
The service intervals on the new dd-15s are 50,000 miles. We just had a couple techs come back from school on these. I don't think you can really do anything to these engines at least thats what I've been told. I am not sure if the filltration will fail before service intervals or not. The...
Thanks Towcat. We are still kickin it aournd. Just found another car while looking at the charger. Its a 2006 chevy malibu ss with 57,000 miles for the same money. So don't know what we are going to do. Thankyou for your help with this.
Well guys I know that this is for trucks but I cant seem to find something that my wife will approve for her to replace the cadillac. She has recently told me that she like the new dodge chargers. Well I found one not far away that is a 2006 se with 3.7 v-6 engine 67,000 miles, that is a...
I have found really good deals on suspension kits on national wheel and tire online. Just look under the suspension specials section. They are name brand kits at a discount. Heres the web address www.ntwonline.com. Hope this helps.
If I remember correctly the front hubs on superdutys and excursions are held in by one outer round snap ring. Pull that snap ring and the junk factory lock out should come right out. But as far as trying to get the old hubs to free up might try spraying them with wd-40 or pb blaster. If I...
Well Im thinking id like to have about 400 horse or more. But the main reason I was even considering stacks is because the guy I bought the truck from had cut the muffler-tail pipe assembly off. So there is only straight pipe from the turbo back and it stops right at the front of the bed. But...
I know this has probably been gone over berfore but I need someone else opinion. The wife is no help what so ever. She just keeps telling me I dont need them but I think she is crazycookoo . Ive been looking at the grandrock stack kits with the turnout stacks:thumbsup: . I just don't have...
