    Question Rear Axle Servicing

    Yes it was the fill level plug. Most people remove the cover to drain the gear oil, I do. Your choice. I do not know anybody who has done that. Maybe someone will chime in.

    Question Rear Axle Servicing

    Is the cover pressed sheet metal? If so that would be very difficult as the factory has a metal bung they press in that is drilled. You could make one and weld it into the cover. :thumbs

    I am so sorry for your loss. I know about dogs and their unconditional love. It is hard to get over. Still, a nice memory. Thank you for sharing!

    Question Rear Axle Servicing

    Other oils are fine. I have not used Valvoline gear oil but I have used other brands and they work good.

    Question Rear Axle Servicing

    If you are having no problems, leave it. If your posi isn't engaging then you can change the oil and add a friction modifier. FORD XL3 FRICTION MODIFIER ADDITIVE is available at your dealer.

    HydroBoost question

    I find that just releasing the brake makes the steering easier. It is still not like going down the road...

    Program issues

    If or when the tranny goes, it will cost a LOT more than $300. Save the tranny and do the flash. Screw the programmer.

    Question low boost at interstate speeds

    I R & R my intake and cooler boots as well as two cooler tubes. All good now. I know mine is not a 7.3, but time goes fast!

    97 7.3 down

    Thanks 79jasper. I am not good with the newest 7.3s. I have never seen the IDM. But I do know (now) the chip goes into the PCM.

    97 7.3 down

    I don't know much about 7.3 dtc faults. THis one could be the IDM is failing (IDM=Injector Drive Module) it is located behind the driver side battery. I do think you need to install your programmer to see if that may be your problem. Your chip probably plugs into the IDM. Good Luck in your hunt.

    Batteries...........

    That is the batteries I wanted to put into my truck, but they are not sold here in town. The closest Sears that handles them is an hour away.

    Batteries...........

    Like the filters, I use Motorcraft batteries. I used to like Sears batteries, but I can't buy them here in town.

    Oil Leak From Drain Plug

    I would take it back to who ever changed your oil and MAKE them PAY! They screwed up your NEW truck.
