it's not the wastegate. it's the backpressure valve thinking the truck needs to warm up some more. The tube is probably clogged. Take off at the valve, and the sensor in the timing cover and run a pipe-cleaner wire brush through it.

check that harness for mouse damage.. but I doubt it.. get a couple of new UVCH's that say something other than Dorman on them.. Dorman is good for one thing, however.. trim fasteners..

:stupid:

you need to scan it and figure out what the airbag codes are first.

IIRC, the line in question comes with the trans cooler.

Hydra.

if you got it from O'Really, it's a Cardone. 87% return rate. Junk. You'd have better luck getting one out of a salvage yard. Most vehicles now a days, they want the system vacuum bled at the pump fill, with about 22" of vacuum.

weak injector would be my guess

if it has a poor connection at a ground, the voltage is gonna wander all over the electrical system.. no telling what might happen..

I talked to my NAPA rep this morning.. he said $1550. for the software bundle & adapter, then like $1800-$1900 for bundle & tablet (depending on which tablet)

well, they are and they aren't.. pins that are always the same on any & every OBD-II vehicle are 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 14, 15, 16 looking at the connector, the "fat" row is 1-8, left to right.. 11-16 is the bottom row, left to right

I use a Snap-on Verdict, myself. Once you go bluetooth, you'll never go back. NAPA offers a bluetooth adapter and a software package (with or without tablet) under the name TECHPro. it's made by Mahle. AE seems to be the package of choice, but I've never seen it in action. Couldn't tell you...

I'm with Nathannial. I think it's got some junk in the valve body or solenoids. Speaking one mechanic to another.. chicken-pecked from my iPad

is it this? http://powerstrokearmy.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56033&highlight=hydroboost+issue

tilt column? Sounds like the retainer for the upper bearing is loose. It takes breakaway bolts, so you need to get them from Ford.

here's the crap.. here's the bore I dug it out of...

Problem resolved.. I'll post pictures later.. OK.. Master cylinder body.. aluminum.. Hydroboost body.. cast iron.. I live in a state where they use road salt in the winter time (may be a factor, may not be).. The master cylinder was rotted onto the hydroboost unit.. When I finally got it off...

someone refresh my memory.. there is a way to replace the oil pan on a 7.3 without pulling the engine or using that 2 piece glue-together pan.. but I can't remember what it is..
