    I've dug a $6000 hole and its getting deeper

    2016 f350 64k miles Long story short I thought I had a turbo bearing problem. In fact I did, but I was having 2 totally different issues. My truck was struggling to build boost. While it was struggling, it also wasn't smoking (while under a load trying to build boost) when it finally would...

    Stealing a 16 f350

    Injectors, idm, or other

    Evening fellas. My 96 7.3 has been feeling doggy lately. Low on power, has a light shake at idle... like if I were to unplug one spark plug cap on a gas engine.
