    Def in diesel

    Def in diesel

    Well it happened. Had a guy put def in the diesel tank. About a gallon in an already full diesel tank. He realized what happened and stopped. He did start the truck to move it backwards and it ran about 15 seconds. We had it towed to our shop. So what now? Drop and drain the tank with new...

    Emissions compliant tuning

    I guess an equally important question is who has the best trans tuning? I've heard some horror stories about PPEI but have no proof it is true.

    Emissions compliant tuning

    Looking to tune my 2018 and wanting to try emissions compliant first. Who are the go to guys? I see 5 star, DP, and calibrated are doing it but can't find a ton of info. Any of the old well known shops doing any? Really wanting to keep this one good as I do some hauling that occasionally has...

    2018 parts

    Sold my 16 f350 and got an 18 f250. Loved my old tyrant tunes and it sounds like everyone still thinks they are the best. Can I swap my old block off plates and exhaust over? Do I need to find a dealer to do a transmission reset or can tyrant tunes take care of that? Thanks!

    2017 Transmission Temperature

    No idea if this will help, but my 2016 started getting high trans temps and it turned out my secondary radiator was low. Lots of people told me it was normal but when I filled it up, temps came right down.

    Transmission temps

    Just out of curiosity what is the danger zone then? Clutch fan comes on at 238 or so and I've seen 245 very briefly.

    Transmission temps

    Well I was almost a gallon low in the secondary cooling system. Got it filled up and seem to be running much cooler now. Not sure how I missed this but thanks for the help guys.

    Transmission temps

    I've got a 2016 off-road f350 with tyrant SOTF. My temps are almost always around 220 for the trans and 230 to 250 when towing my 16k box trailer. All fluids look normal and the dummy gauge is always in the operating range but this seems way to high. Doesn't matter what tune I use, it runs hot...

    Upgrade to medium duty or keep F-350?

    I love my medium duty but it doesn't have the power of my cummins for sure. Although it feels so much more planted towing I can get over it.
