No, I didn't have to change it out as I never had knuckle seal out of knuckle. Of course now that my wheel bearing noise is gone with new hub/bearing unit now I can hear ball joints knocking on hard bumps so that is coming soon. Always something. I'll have to order the OTC knuckle seal tool...

Following up on this, Changing fuel sender out solved both gauge issue and the outside air temp display being off by 20 degrees. Both work properly now. Only thing I can figure is temp sensor and fuel gauge share a common ground in there and old gauge was fowling up temp display. Chevron...

Hey everyone. 2004 F250 4 wheel drive 6.0 truck. I just recently changed both front wheel hubs/bearings unit with Timiken units and at the same time replaced my Warn hubs with original auto hubs. I reactived plugged off vacuum line and they seem to work but passenger side shaft is very hard to...

Well, Gauge worked about 2 miles and went back to empty yesterday. Kicked back to life today so seems it is indeed a wonky sender. Can't fix it for a month or so. No time currently. I'll pick a new one up next week and swap it out in a month or so and update this thread. Thanks for the advice...

Ok, that sounds like what I was reading the Techron stuff was supposed to help with if it was a Sulphur build up. "Check Engine Light on with P0460 Fuel Level Sensor Code: This may be caused by a miscommunication of fuel level ststus between the instrument cluster and engine computer. This...

I'm sure it is pure coincidence and when I go home tomorrow it probably won't work again but my fuel gauge is back up and accurate. It has been a slow day at work so I changed my fuel filters and my rear axle oil and when I finished and started it up to look for leaks the fuel gauge was...

I'll give the sender a shot then. Probably be a few weeks before I can do it but I'll follow up on it when finished. Outside air temp is definitely set to Fahrenheit. Thanks, Robert Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

Hey everyone. 2004 F250 KR 4 wheel drive 6.0 6 3/4 ft bed I have searched and searched and cannot find consistent info regarding a fuel gauge (single tank) that started reading inaccurate then eventually went to reading empty with low fuel light on. Maybe a week later it just read empty, no...

Got my Bosch 140 amp alternator installed. Truck is doing great presently. No crazy surges similar to ac compressor kicking in and out. Those are gone. Voltage after startup and glow plugs off showing 13.5 at idle and 13.9 to 14.2 while driving. I've got the overdrive pulley on order. Had...

Well, I can update this thread finally. I am fairly certain my problems were alternator related all along with grounding issues a secondary factor. Last night I was moving my truck to the back yard to load some brush up to haul off and noticed my Edge Monitor was showing 11.5 to 11.8 volts...

Is there anyway I can find out if I have this version with forscan? Or do you need IDS to get a version number? Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

That's a good point. Amazon has developed a reputation for having questionable suppliers sometimes. So far so good. Fired up in under a second this morning at 33 degrees. I need to capture some good data graphs on FICM info and other settings to try to figure out my hunting idle during my...

Cold start this morning went off without a hitch. I still had a little white smoke the first few minutes but once coolant hit about 95 or so on Edge monitor it was gone. That was letting it idle and warm up. I usually start it about 5 minutes before I leave and finish getting stuff for work...

Well, GPCM came in yesterday while I was at work. I got home this morning and installed it and cleared all codes with Forscan lite on my phone and it started fine although it was plugged in and coolant temp was about 93 degrees. No white smoke after starting and no codes. I stopped and...

Thanks for the link. I'll check them out for some other parts I need soon. I peeked at there site and prices seem good. I did check the connections and made sure they were seated properly and still have same 1,3,5,7 not working. Those have been working for 5 years so pretty sure the plug...

Thank you for the replies. Tried to start it this morning in about 28 degree weather and it was a no go. 1,3,5,and 7 kept showing up in codes. Cleared and recycled key and they popped right back up. Plugged it in and drive car to work. Got home tonight and coolant temp was at 103 degrees...

Ok, thanks. I guess I need to go visit my wiring again. Here is something weird though that leads me to think maybe the glow plug controller module is taking a dump. A few days ago I had codes on all 8 glow plugs and white smoke and a strong diesel smell in exhaust when truck was warming up...

Well, a little more exploring online says 1,3,5,7 are on passenger side of engine. That thickens the mystery. Is it correct that 1,3,5,7 are on passenger side of vehicle? Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Well, I put everything back together after verifying glowplug and harnesses are good. Get good readings off each plug connector going from wire harness to plugs. The problem is the engine harness part that goes from glow plug module to the driver side gp harness. Ohm from one end of plug to...

I've got a 2004 F250 6.0 and have been having random cold crank issues. Normally 25 to 35f when I start it in the morning. The last few days I've had to crank for about 8 to 11 seconds before it fires up versus the normal 2 or 3 seconds. When it does get going it blows white smoke for awhile...
