    Adding Cab Clearance Lights

    a cool trick Tbar did was to wire the outside lights into his turn signals. No idea what it takes but I wish mine did that.

    Oil Filters for 7.3

    I've almost always used fram because I get them at Walmart when I buy the oil. My one oil analysis came back great and suggested I could run more miles. Good enough reason to save the extra 6$ to me.

    Question Diff covers for sterling?

    I got mine from the dealer too. don't remember the price but not too bad. of course, that was a year ago and it may be available online cheaper now. best bet is to call the local dealer and then google search to see if you can beat it.

    I just found this!Is it true

    I just came across this thread and thought it was kind of funny given the various speculations.

    Adding Cab Clearance Lights

    I bought 5 teardrop lights from Advance Auto Parts (maybe Car Quest) for about $5 each and ordered LED bulbs online for 2$ each. I made my own wire harness and plugged it into the plug behind the passenger kick panel. Very easy and a lot cheaper than any pre- made package.

    If you get to Texas, I'll buy the first round! I love the look and feel of your model but do like the simplicity of mine. Even with my broken driver's door handle!

    2011 SuperDuty

    Im not sure we're both on the same line. There are differences in the fuel according to what kind of feed stock is used to make it and how it is processed. So, there is a huge range of quality, or lack of it. Bad fuel will cause all kinds of problems. One very common issue with bio is water...

    2011 SuperDuty

    Not only was I talking about 2 different systems, I was talking about an entirely different issue. That being whether the common misconception about sudden clogging of filters is true or not. I never addressed the issue of piezo electric injectors or emissions equipment and biodiesel. But...

    2011 SuperDuty

    You clearly didn't notice but my "new" truck is 13 years old. It is no where near as common as reported. I know many people who run very high concentrations with no clogs. Unless you have empirical data proving your point, stop perpetuating myths.

    2011 SuperDuty

    I ran as high as b100 for many months and never had the rumored gunk in the filters. Unless you have historically run crappy fuel I would not expect you will see much. The stories of suddenly clogged filters are either freak occurrence or just that, stories. Im curious how the death of the...

    203* thermostat...???

    Im at a loss for how coolant temperature could have any impact on fuel efficiency. The guy stating he got several miles more per gallon is delusional. I have it in mine and won't go back for the simple reason that a diesel engine is designed to run better with heat. I have a water temperature...

    Question Unusual Noise when cold

    Ok, hold your horses. I had a similar experience a few years ago. First, how cold is it? Second, what does it sound like? I ask because I moved to a colder climate and all of a sudden, below 30*, I noticed a roaring sound and truck seemed to be losing power. Acceleration would stop it but as...

    No more truck for me!!!!

    whose insurance is offering that amount, hers or yours? You have a claim against her for negligence and it is worth more than 5600$. She has caused you inconvenience and possibly injuries. If you take that without seeking legal advice, you are leaving money on the table. The insurance...

    No more truck for me!!!!

    I would be taking that engine etc and putting in a nice mid-70s crewcab - and I just happen to know where one is. :) Glad you are not hurt. Too bad she was hurt that badly but let's hope she'll learn a good lesson.

    Safety Recall Notice

    I need to go do my cps recall. If I understand this one, I need it too? edit - well that was kind of cool. I just went to the Ford site and entered my vin and got the list of recalls. I was then able to schedule an appointment for tomorrow morning to drop it off to get done without having...

    Question 95 7.3 code reader

    If you know anyone with a programmer, most will read codes. The Edge Evolution will read and clear them.
