    Holy moley turbo/compressor surge!

    doesn't sound like turbo surge to me. that just occurs when your boost gauge starts fluttering and you hear the turbo cutting out. you had some sort of electrical issue....maybe a safety parameter the tuner has in it? sounds to me like something got overloaded and told your pcm to shut her...

    Help Needed sluggish 7.3

    what else have you done to the truck? Fill out your signature with all of your mods so we can help you. The black smoke would come from the dp-tuner. what kind of tune are you running? Last time fuel filter has been changed? all your fluids good and full? last time oil and filter change?

    2002 7.3 Coolant Temp runs hot with load

    it might be worth installing a coolant filter. i would try and have the radiator cleaned out first before i replae it. there is a chance it might be partially plugged and it might be only badly plugged enough that when theres a load on it, you see overheating.

    2002 7.3 Coolant Temp runs hot with load

    is the coolant level good? when is the last time it has been changed? Thermostat ever been replaced? any coolant leaking from around the water pump? my guess is, your radiator could potentially be clogged, or your waterpump is going south. adding a coolant filter would not at all be a bad...

    Question Anyone in Maryville,TN got a scan tool to loan for a second?

    sure sounds like you've lost a whole bank of injectors. if you can work on it, i would check the harness on top of the valve covers and then pull the covers off and see if any of the connectors are damaged and/or disconnected. give that a go and let us know who things look.

    Help Needed problems for my truck

    what year is your truck? go and look at the wire connections that go to each valve cover and ensure they are connected. if so, then remove the valve covers and ensure that the wiring all looks ok under them going to each injector.

    FYI Stolen Truck

    if/when you get another...get an alarm that kills the ignition. that will keep it from getting going at all. I would also install jimmi jammers. that will keep them from popping the lock and getting in.

    Fan clutch

    yea, just seems like its pretty easy to get to the condensor once you pull off that black plastic suff that goes around the hood latch. getting to the radiator just seems like it would take a little more work. i've done the best i can before, but who knows who much good it is doing. in...

    new truck

    Yea, if the front of the raptor weren't so darn ugly...id consider one. I sure do like the 6.2L V8, and the upfitter switches that are availiable with it. Put those in a lariat, and I'll be pretty darn happy

    new truck

    Honestly...i think there might indeed be a trend here. With the cost of diesel some $0.30 above gas, the motor itself is an $8k option, the maintenance is higher cost...it just doesnt make sense for the average joe to own one that just uses it as a daily commuter and occassional light tow...

    new truck

    very true. im hoping the 2011's will have the option of the 6.2l v8 in them. that way, 400hp should be plenty.
