The spring and valve on the top of the stand pipe in the filter housing broke off. Is it safe to run the truck while waiting for a new one? When I get the new one can I just pull filter, fix it and put filter back in? I believe it is just a high pressure relief valve in case filter gets plugged...

I got a call from my wife yesterday as she was driving home telling me truck was making a knocking sound. She drove it over to me and the check engine light was on and it was knocking pretty bad. I took some videos this morning. https://vimeo.com/122831869 https://vimeo.com/122831897 I will be...

My gear indicator on the digital display is no longer there. I don't think I did anything to remove it but is there a way to show/not show it? I looked in the menus but didn't find anything. Thank you

I have a slight surging in my 6.0 excursion while driving. I am in Daytona beach on vacation so I have no tools to work on it myself. Is there a good shop somewhere I could go to? Thanks

I am replacing the o-rings on a leaking oil cooler and I found plastic debris in the end cap. Any ideas where it could be coming from?

I drove my 03 excursion about 60 miles tonight to the mall. We went in for about an hour and then when we left, we came to stop in the parking lot and truck stalled and won't restart. The oil pressure gauge on the dash jumps right up. Would could it be? We pushed the truck into a parking spot...

I have an 03 excursion with a 6.0. Twice in the last couple of days after coming to a stop, I go to accelerate and it pours white smoke and barley moves. This lasts about 5 seconds and then it clears up and runs normal. Any ideas? There are no codes or cel. Thank you

I just finished changing injector o-rings and sleeves. When I had everything out, I put the VC back on and spun it over to get all the crap out of the cylinder. I put everything back together and when I try crank it over, it just jams the starter. I am taking the VC back off and will pull the gp...

I bought an 02 f350 with 450,000 kms that the previous owner had parked last year after dealer had told him he needed to redo injector o-rings. I ran the truck for 500 kms with no problems. Then, yesterday, I started it and it ran rough with lots of white smoke. Since the PO had already told me...

Just picked up an 01 f-350 that the previous owner had parked last year after he discovered coolant mixing with the fuel (what he told me) truck has 450,000 kms (270,000 miles) he was told it was the injectors. Truck has been parked for 10 months now. What do you think could be causing coolant...

About two years ago my wife drove my 450 to work and as she pulled into the parking lot, she noticed smoke coming from under the hood. Turns out the bottom alternator burnt up. I changed both at that time and thought whatever, sh!t happens. This morning, I go to start my truck and notice a...

Truck puked on me for the first time today. How do I test if its gaskets or just the cap? Thanks

I just replaced my ficm with a 58v unit and now I find it idles rough and low (around 550 rpm). It also seems to be more sluggish than it was before. Any thoughts on this? Rhanks

Any vendors have a modified 58v available. I can send the core in after but I would need the ficm as quickly as possible. Thank you

I have an 03 excursion with a 6.0. A few years ago I bought an x3 with some custom tunes. When I uploaded the tunes the anti-theft light would come on and truck would not start. I tried different custom tunes with no change. I was frustrated so I put the tuner in the center console and forgot...

I've got my drivers side VC off to replace the bolts/studs that hold the fuel cooler assembly. Of course there is one that broke in the head so the VC had to come off. Any thing I should do while I'm in there? Any thing I should check? Gp's, fuel rail, rockers? Thanks Here are the bolts from my...

How do you change the light bulb in a dually fender marker light? Thanks

The hitch on my 03 Excursion is rusted bad. I seem to be having trouble finding one because everyone tells me it is a specific one for an Ex and one from a Superduty won't fit. Any truth to this and if so, where can I find one for an Ex? Thank you

Coming up I26 west into NC and heard a bang and then whooosh. It looks like the pipe that connects the two turbos (under the fuel cooler) blew apart. I am waiting on a 24h diesel mech but any info or anyone around here (saluda nc) I could really use some help. Thank you
