Thanks RBernardi

Guys I'm looking to get some new wheels for my 97 OBS. I want to have the tires sit right at the fender or slightly out but not WAY out like some trucks. I have about 4" of lift and am looking for 17x9 wheels. I'm trying to decide if what I would like is 0 offset or -6 offset. All the rims...

this may be a dumb question, but do I need to install something on my hydra chip before I install it? This is a regular hydra with no custom tunes. I pulled my ecm and found a banks module on it, that was there when I bought it because I didn't install it. when I pull the bank and put on the...

Let me clarify, this is an OBS 97 F350. If there's a different way please elaborate, it's driving me crazy.

I'm trying to pull it out from the engine. All the videos I found show removing it from inside the engine bay versus taking apart the e-brake assembly. So I'm pulling towards the front of the truck from the firewall.

I didn't specifically do that, but I yanked and tugged and tried just about everything. I'll take it back apart and try that specifically and see what happens. So you're saying to pull the front of it up to cock it then try to slide it?

Okay I bought a hydra and was going to install it but ran into a wall. I unscrewed the adapter bolt in the middle, disconnected the harness. I then took out the upper and lower 10mm bolts and removed the gasket. Then when I went to slide out the PCM it would not slide out at all. I moved...

Thanks guys!

Does TW still burn custom chips? His website redirects to xpeditionoutfitters . com and I got an email from someone not named Tony. Just trying to verify if he's still in business or if someone took it over. From my research he seemed to be the best tuner for the OBS 7.3 trucks.

That sounds like loads of fun

So looking at this, the sump replaces this part, correct? I assume I have to drop the tank to discover this right? Do you have a process on dropping my gas tank?

I know nothing about fuel systems, if you could point me to what to check ,I will def. go check it

A sump would fix that right? I think I saw swamps had one fairly cheap.

Okay guys, here's one for you powerstroke gurus. I have a 97 F350 and when I first bought it had an issue develop that when I put on the front tank after a while the fuel filter light would come on and the truck would die. I'd then have to go hit the Schrader valve to let air out of the...

Thanks for taking time to answer my questions as comprehensively as you did, its very much appreciated.

Okay let me recap where I'm at right now and see if you guys can poke holes in it: 1. Get compression test done - looking for 400PSI per cylinder (realistically expect between 320-380) 1a. If numbers are within 5% of each other, what is the lowest number you'd add any type of HP to the motor...

Is this something I can do or do I need to take it to a shop to do? What type of results am I looking for from the test?

I'm definitely not going to add more horsepower than that, do you mean ugly as it how it looks or how it functions lol? In your opinion, what's the best way to do it?

Which picture do you see that? I did spray down the engine with a citrus degreaser, maybe that's what you see? I was in the process of cleaning the engine when I took those pictures.

So I assume it's okay that oil seems to be venting into the turbo? So here's my question on that turbo, what type of PSI should I expect with that housing? I have to romp on the pedal to even get 10PSI, should there be tunes that go along with it? I want to get slightly larger injectors (baby...
