    Hard cutoff on 2002 when jarred / jolted

    Been a while since I have been on here. Have a 2002 Super duty that shut down unexpectedly in a Wal-Mart parking lot. Thought it was the CPS. Felt just like shutting the key off. Waited about 5 min, and was able to start it and get to a parking spot. Went inside and got my errand done, came...

    2002 ESOF 60 mph shift

    I had a strange thing happen in my 2002. Cruising home one night, about 60 mph on a flat level highway, I feel a little jerk like the engine missed. About 2 seconds later, I get the 4x4 and Low Range lights on the dash, and the worst gear grinding I've ever heard. Dang thing shifted to...

    Super Duty fuel pump / selector valve troubleshooting

    Ok. Im running a "baby fuel" system; a Super Duty pump after the factory selector valve, feeding into a spin-on filter. The truck died the other day. I had swapped tanks, the gauge moved, but it died at enough miles for the tank I was on to be empty. Checked the fuel pressure gauge under the...

    2002 gets puny after a minute... finally quit...

    My 2002 7.3 automatic has developed a deal where it gets weak after about 2-4 miles every morning. It acts like you let off the throttle, then starts missing and loping, smokes very faint blue, and then clears up. I live a mile from the interstate and at 70 mph it'll clear up after 15-30...

    Raising the engine - how to?

    I need to raise my engine about 2 1/2 - 3 inches to clear some bolt removal / install on the crossmember in front of the oil pan. Looking for the easiest way.... no hoist available.

    Dana 60 swap *dumb questions*

    Wow. I searched my thread history and this Dana 60 swap has been almost a 4 year project. Part time, of course. It also morphed into a turbocharger upgrade, intercooler install, HID headlight conversion, Plasti-Dip-almost-everything, powder coat anything else metal, that kind of project...

    Dana 60 rotors vs Dana 50

    OK, from what Ive read, it appears that the balljoint 1992 Dana 60 I have, with the slide pin calipers will not use the same rotors as the D50 TTB from my 1997 with the larger bolt on calipers. Search appears to indicate that 95-97 50s and 60s use a larger caliper, and that they will...

    RSK with TTB???

    Well long story short I have bought my Dana 60 and am working on rebuilding it. But in the mix I have family with health issues, my own health issues, and am moving and trying to sell a house, so I have no time to do anything just due to being very busy. There's a very competent local 4x4 off...

    Using OBS F-350 springs w/ Dana 60 - questions.

    Well I've been back and forth on this Dana 60 swap, about whether to do an RSK, if so - which one; or just stay with the factory shackles in the front and OBS length springs. I have an intercooler mounted (but not plumbed :doh:) and so that might complicate an RSK. If I use the 2200 lb...

    Need help with my Dana 60 parts gathering.

    OK I am about 95% done with remodeling both bathrooms and my truck is next. The D50 extra-drop brackets are cracking. The axle I got is a balljoint axle, 92-95 the guy said. I have not tried to find the BOM number to determine exactly which year. I haven't even unstrapped it from the pallet...

    Can you buy a complete engine wiring harness?

    Well one truck is down (just won't start right); and the other truck has I guess what is an electrical gremlin. I attributed it to a faulty CPS, then bad fuel... replaced CPS, replaced fuel tank (33 gallon Bronco upgrade) AND fuel bowl and all valley lines... truck has perfect fuel pressure...

    slow cranking / no start. end of my rope.

    I've about had it. Between the two trucks I have, I'm scared to leave the house in either of them. I had a battery fail a month ago. Truck was sluggish to crank for a few weeks; and it would occasionally reset the PCM due to the low voltage dips when cranking. I tested them and one of them...

    Truck dies. slowly, like starving for fuel. ???

    Sorry, this got long winded. Backstory: I got some bad fuel in the front tank at some point. Bowl would be full of rust; I'd drain it as often as once a week, whenever the WIF light came on. Truck always ran OK. Till one morning on the way to work; it quits. Quickly; like an electronic...

    E4OD won't shift into OD...

    Headed to town tonight, truck got to 45 MPH which is where it generally shifts into OD... and I got a hard shake and the RPM didn't drop. Much. It did a little. Didn't feel like the TC was locked either; I hit the OD off button to see if the light was good and it "shifted" back into direct...

    Got a Dana 60 - questions

    I broke down and bought a D60 from a 92-95 truck. It's a SRW balljoint axle but has the different calipers, looks like. that's why I say 92-95. The rotors are rusty and rough; I have a better set of hubs and rotors off of a 50 though. I assume they'll swap? Big question is regarding...

    Fuel line fitting questions

    Been working on the fuel tank swap on my 97 CC SB. Got the rear tank dropped after I finally removed the draw tite hitch. Just would not clear otherwise. I couldn't figure out how to get the fuel line fittings out of the sending unit / pickup. I ended up using a couple small flathead...

    Purging fuel system.

    Finally I have gotten fed up with "water in fuel" and a rusty fuel bowl and fuel leaks. I have two new tanks and a new fuel pump, and a good used fuel bowl. I plan to drop the tanks for replacement, change the FF housing / pump... I can use compressed air to blow out the lines through the FPR...

    Dropping the rear fuel tank in OBS.

    Ok so I have finally gathered parts for my bronco tank swap in my CCSB 97. I dropped the spare tire and removed the two rear skid plate bolts. Very rusty, this truck is. :( Having to do a lot of sawzall work. Bottom of the tank is quite rusty on the outside. Hence my "water in fuel" and...

    CPS like symptoms but not the CPS

    On the way to work this morning my truck started acting up. After about a mile for once a mile or so it would quit "hard" - just no power at all for a little - then run fine. After 5 mi - first traffic light - it quit and wouldn't restart. This truck has had IPR problems before and would...
