    6.4 dies while driving. Starts up again and dies. P0625

    Hi. Been a while since I’ve Been on here. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this problem. I’ve got an 08 F250 6.4 automatic. The other day I started it and backed up to my trailer. It died without any symptom. It would start up again after a longer crank for about a second and then due...

    Transmission issues, p0752, p02700

    Driving on holidays, lost drive leaving from a light. Pulled down to M2 and it locked up and skidded. M1 got me off the road. Fluid was good and no codes first. Drove again and it upshifted weird and now it shifts harsh down low and doesn’t go into high gear. Or maybe torque not locking. Has...

    Cut out flares and 40s?

    08 F250. I’m kicking around the idea of running cut out flares with a leveling kit. Anyone see it done? I don’t see why it wouldn’t fit. Probably on 20x10s or 12s. Thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EBP sensor freezing up?

    Every year or two I have to replace my ebp sensor due to it freezing up. I guess moisture builds up after awhile and when it gets cold it freezes. I think I'm going to try to relocate it a bit this time. Try to get it close to vertical so moisture should drain off. And get it closer to the heat...

    Bad accel pedal?

    What are the symptoms of a bad accelerator pedal sensor? Yesterday, I was pulling out of a parking space in a parking lot and I had no response from the pedal. It would only idle along. I slowly gave it more throttle and it finally kicked in and was fine after. I checked codes and there wasn't...

    New speakers get distorted after awhile.

    So in the shop at work, I've got a car stereo in a cabinet to keep us entertained while we pull wrenches. Just bought 4 new Kenwood 6x9s 3ways to replace the old junk speakers we had there. Built some plywood boxes to put them in. They are a little louder and sound a lot nicer than before, but...

    Headlight bulbs. Another thread on them.

    So today I lost one of my LED headlight bulbs. I really don't want to go through the hassle of replacing the burnt out one with another LED. I really liked them on low beam, but high beam was really non existent. I don't like the pattern of HID kits, or the reliability, so I guess I'm back to...

    Engine stop leak oil additive, cause problems.

    This guy at works asks me about his 2000 7.3 today. He says since he changed the oil ( delvac 15w40 I think he said), his truck starts running rough, white smoke, and dies when warm. He says he uses this oil in his 6.0 and 7.3 and hasn't had a problem before. Only difference this time was he...

    Need a pic of front ABS sensor wiring

    Anyone have a pic that shows where the front wheel speed sensor wiring clips to the radius arms on an 08 4x4? Both mine are hanging down and I want to reattach them before the tire lugs tear them off. They are attached on the rear to the little bracket, just the push pins on the front are out of...

    Pics of 35s on a stock 08.

    Glow plug harness questions

    My #7 glow plug harness cap comes out of place and oil leaks out a bit. I siliconed around it to try and hold it in. I'm assuming there is a plastic clip broke or something that keeps it tight? I went to get a new one at the dealer but they had none and he didn't know if it came with the...
