    Weird Noise

    I know on the 7.3, the ebpv will cause the same type of thing when it is cold outside. It closes to help warm the engine up.

    Need help diagnosing engine noise

    Is it cold when it starts doing this? If it is, it might be the ebpv closing to warm the engine up.

    Question best oil for 2003 7.3

    I run Delo 400 in the 97' OBS and Schaefers in the X. The reason....I was taught that once you run one in it to stick with it. I bought both of them used and just continued running what was already in them. Now if they have crappy oil in them, then definitely switch. Just my 2 cents.

    Help Needed bad door rattle

    I just did my X with the vinyl tubing. For 4 doors it took about 50 feet. Your looked like a ext cab so probably less, but for less than $20, nice simple fix to make sure and have extra. Oh yeah, it is a pain. Use plenty of lubricant, soapy water, wd40, or whatever you have. Remember whatever...

    DIY Tymar air box

    I guess it not so much for the heat than making sure I don't get water on the filter. We have some major issues with drainage when the big T-Storms roll in. I am just wanting to make sure and keep it from getting water splashed up on it. Plus since I have the zoodad mod, wanting to take...

    DIY Tymar air box

    I am thinking about building a box for the tymar that would isolate it from the engine heat kind of like other air boxes do. Has anyone else attempted or made one? Just thought I would check.

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    I did the door seal mod on the X this afternoon. A quick test drive and up to highway speed seemed to be more quiet.

    Article Why does OPEC lie about its oil reserves?

    I work in the Oilfield here in West Texas. There are fields out here that were thought to be depleted that are being re-entered and coming online anywhere from 20 to 100 bbls a day per well. As the technology advances so does the ability to get more and more oil out of the producing zones. The...

    oil crossover

    For the 7.3L, it is a high pressure oil crossover. I don't know enough about the 6.0 to say whether it is possible to do or even need it.

    radar dectors??? what to get

    I have a friend that has one of these. Protection He loves it and says they are pricey. He also said though if you get a ticket they will pay for it and the difference in insurance cost. I haven't read up on them so I don't know if this is true or not. Oh yeah, it has to be installed by...

    Help Needed Radio Installers Help!

    I just bought one out of a mercury off e-bay for my X. One thing to check for is the connections on the back. Look at yours and make sure the one you are buying has the same number of connectors.

    I have bought a factory dvd player for my X. I know I will need the wiring harness to make it work with the radio. My question is there another place to get other than the dealership. :dunno

    Mileage Champion

    My 97 has 375,000. There was a forum for a while going that talked about the digital read-outs on the OBS PSD. Once they got to 399,999 they rolled back to 300,000. There were a few that had this happen on their trucks. We were wondering when it got back to the 399,999 again if it would go to...

    steering column bearings?

    There were bearings in my OBS PS. I had the same problems that you are describing with the movement in the steering wheel in all directions. I replaced the top bearing once and didn't know there was a bottom. Top one went out again and end up eating on the steering column. I found a complete...
