Thanks guys. I figured I was being over cautious. All my other vehicles sit for extended periods of time and I never give it a second thought. I think in 10 days it will be 1 year....so almost exactly, damnit. Lol. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

My truck has been sitting for almost exactly one year. Now I am going to get it up and running, and I am concerned about that first start up. Wondering what kind of suggestions you guys have. I dont remember exactly how much fuel was left in the tank. I am figuring I will have some sediment, but...

This Bronco is kind of a joint ownership deal with my grandpa and I. It has bounced back and forth between the two of us and neither of us really use it anymore so he is wanting to try and sell it. It is a 1980, 4X4, 4spd manual, with a 390 swapped into it. It was originally a State vehicle...

Thats where my experience has been different. I have had signs leading up to the final nail in the coffin. Which is why this took me by surprise. It's all that **** in front of the drum that has me hoping its the input. That is all the stuff I get nervous about messing with and would rather...

Makes sense, one of those things where having it in your hands and seeing it helps I'm sure, trying to picture how it all matches up in my head leaves me guessing on stuff.

Those are the kind of situations I could see it letting go all at once. Both of those equate to a quick hard load on the parts. Where as in my case I was just easing along slowly accelerating from a slow down at a light, low boost, low rpm shift. That's why I was thinking I would have had...

Here are two exploded diagrams I could find. http://www.transmissioncenter.org/E4OD_4R100_Parts_Blow_Up_Diagram.htm http://www.drivetrain.com/images/stories/product_imgs_large/e4od_illustration_p1.jpg Didn't mess with the truck this weekend, was busy moving. My plan is to pull the trans and...

When I asked if it could have taken anything out with it, I meant other than the pump and TC. I know those are possibilities, at this stage would I have any indication if either of those were damaged? Probably not until I take it apart.

No odd noise at all. I don't remember if it sounded like it wanted to go into gear or not when I shifted the lever, but I do know there was no loud whining noise. So if it is an input shaft, how hard is that to do on your own, and would it have taken anything out with it? Transmissions are...

Thanks for the input guys. I will hopefully get a chance to get back down to where the truck is tonight and see if i can figure any more out. I am in the middle of moving and was just beat last night, so i just grabbed another vehicle and figured i would worry about it later. I had a friend pull...

Last PI lost a bearing, then trans took a dump because of crap floating in fluid and clogged the filter. This had no warning just a harsh bang and jerk and then nothing, which is why im leaning towards the shaft. No CEL or OD light to indicate TC acting up before failure. All signs point to a...

Driving along, normal, maybe 1/4 throttle, truck shifts to 3rd, hear a bang, truck jerks, and no more gears. Just free revs in all gears, manually shift the lever and no response. Drive shaft is in tact. Next thought is input shaft??? I dont know enough abou trans stuff to make an educated...

Seems pretty similar to something I had going on years ago. I really don't remember exactly what it was doing or numbers like ICP and such, but cleaning the IPR helped, and I ended up getting a new one and haven't had the problem since. So I would say looking into the IPR would be worth a shot.

I was going to do sway bar end links on my Early 99 this weekend. At Ford we were trying to make sure we got the right ones for the early 99 since they are different than the 99.5+. The two options are definitely different from each other. Now I can't remember which one was listed as early and...

I've been seeing one around here lately. It's always with an F-150 with a "camo" grille. Finally was kind of able to get a picture, not very good though, trying to drive and fumble around with my phone. Not very impressive in person, tailgate looks dumb. The one thing that caught me off guard...

I know you said batteries are good but what kind of numbers are they at, and double check connections.

I saw Rocky driving his truck home on my way home from work. It was pretty cool to think about what all these trucks went through the last three days at the power levels they are at, and see one of them just cruising down the road like any other day. Congrats to everyone in the competition...

Right now it's got Beans in it, and I've only noticed it on one setting.

Good info. I was leaning more towards this as opposed to valve float, because I think it only happens in one tune. The only reason I was possibly thinking valve float is because at the high RPMS I was experiencing it, is also when my boost is the highest, which still is under 35lbs on my gauge...

My speakers suck, so it's kind of hard to tell, but seems like what I heard in your video was quieter and smoother/quicker that what I have, could be the speakers though. This is what first came to my mind when I heard my truck do it and sounds very similar...
