Truck has been stored in the barn since October. I Started it yesterday to move it to the shop for some maintenance items. Truck fired right up no problem even with the cooler temp -10c (14F). As soon as I touched the throttle I got a wrench light & RPMs jumped up to about 1500. Depress the...

Looking for a Lariat GAS 5.4 or 6.8 instrument cluster for a project on my KR Diesel. the instrument cluster is described as "Metallic-faced cream gauge instrument cluster with enhanced Message Center" The part# should be AC3Z1084N or AC3Z1084NA. There are possibly other part #s for 2008 &...

Hey all, researching another possible project & looking for any insite from the collective here. Last year I put a 3 gauge pillar mount in the truck, Pyro, Boost, & Exhaust BP. Why another boost gauge when there's one in the dash? Just me, I wanted Boost & BP over one another. Sooo.... Now I...

My cruise control has an annoying jerk when starting down hill and the throttle input is dropping to zero. It is like its not sure where the throttle input should be. It will do an off/on/off input of throttle before it decides , Yes, we can go down this hill at zero throttle input. Sometimes it...

I just up dated my MCC definitions yesterday. It looks like they have added some extra pressure tables for off going elements at some point. The Y-axis (torque) in all these tables except 1-2, 2-1 now show very large numbers. Anyone know what units these torque figures are in or why the are...

Seen this on another Forum; " Most custom tuners (even on the sct platform) will disable the adaptive learn function in the TCM and that helps a lot with keeping the shift flares away." Am I wrong thinking the adaptive transmission learning is still "on" with the H&S tunes?

This sort of relates to Kinds thread about rescaling the axis table. In some of these tables, Ford uses the same axis value twice with a different produced value in the table for each. Anyone have any Ideas why? I asked H&S TECH a question Regarding the 0-1020 axis values in the transmission...

I was asked about the EGR function with H&S tuning recently. I had always read on many different Forums that the H&S "EASY" tune still keep the EGR functional. No where have I actually seen that in writing from H&S though. Now when I actually look at the "EASY" tune thru MCC the EGR set points...

Its been a while & I can't remember. When I Export a base file from the tuner to the SD card does it give me the option of exporting, Easy, Mild & HD300 or does it just ask me about DPF & then export the HD300 tune? I want to look at some of the fuel settings in the mild tune compared to the...

Hey, just thinking out loud & putting this out there for those that know a lot more about this than me. Would it be possible to copy the programming (firmware) from a Mini Max head unit into one of Bully-dogs' head units such as the Watchdog or GT Diesel programmer so the Bully could be used...

H&S programming enters the torque converter HOT MODE much earlier than the stock programming. Does the Hot mode converter LOCK & UNLOCK programming override the Tow/Haul mode as well as the normal mode? I'm trying to write programming that locks the converter immediately shifting into 3rd & 4th...

I never paid much attention to these with my old 97 OBS, It's sprung so stiff there isn't a snow balls chance in hell it will ever compress the suspension fully. But now I'm thinking about my 2010 350 with the coil springs and radius arms. How critical are the bump stops & the amount of...

Changed out my 3.55 gearing for a new set of OEM 4.10 gears mounted on a Yukon grizzly locker. Got a good pattern centered between root and top crown on both drive & coast sides, very slightly towards the heel. My backlash is set at the minimum spec of .006". Now I just realized these factory...

The factory axles in a 10.25/10.5 sterling are generally considered some of the strongest OEM axles offered in a Factory Differential. How much better are 1541 Alloy axles & are they worth the extra $$$???

Getting the parts together to do a gear swap in my 2010 F350, I am going to install a mechanical locker in the rear at the same time. The last time I did this the only thing available was the Detroit. Now I see Yukon is offering one as well. Any comments on one vs the other from those that have...

Does anyone know the diameter of the glow plug bore in the cylinder head. I was wondering whether I could buy a bore-o-scope or inspection Camera with a small enough head to go down the glow plug hole rather than pulling an injector if I ever needed to look at a piston.

If I do a gear change from 3.55 to 4.10 or 4.30, how does the ECM know the new gear ratio? Is there a base parameter that is accessible thru IDS or similar programming to change this, & then do the fine tuning with tire size? Or is it all done thru the tire size parameter?

One of the options in the set up for the Mini is Low boost fueling ranging from 0= lowest to 5= highest. Question: is this parameter accessible thru MCC. I don't see it listed, but maybe its under a different heading?

Not mine, just passing the link on if any one is looking for such an animal, manuals are a bit of a rare bird. USD is good against CDN dollar right now, might be a scary truck though...

In the process of putting the 6.0 ltr manifolds on the engine & the low pressure AC line clearance on the RH manifold isn't worth crap. A little massaging & tweaking of the line got it so it will clear, but its just not a great fit. Anyone using a different line, or making one?. Or is bend and...
