    2006 F250 blinker problems

    I was hoping that would be the case. I've replaced the switch in my '86 Chevy before and it's a real pain to take the whole column apart. I may take the covers off tomorrow and take a look inside to see what is going on. Thanks for the tips.

    2006 F250 blinker problems

    Good thought.... I had my fingers crossed when I tried it, but no luck. I'm thinking that maybe there is a short in the switch? If it were in the wires (at the tail lights, for instance), it should act funny anytime you try to use it. This one only acts up when you push it all the way up...

    2006 F250 blinker problems

    Howdy - I've had a 2006 F250 for about 6 months now. Last week, I noticed an issue with the right hand blinker... the sound was there and normal, but the light on the dash was not coming on. I took note, but it worked normally the rest of the drive. Today, I noticed it again. Sometimes it...

    Will stock 17" wheels from an '06 fit an '02?

    Anyone know if the stock 17" wheels from an '06 will fit an '02? Both are F250 4x4s.

    swaping gauges

    I would think that it would be plug and play. The only thing they did was change the look of the cluster... no reason to rewire it. I don't believe that there is a tranny gauge on the old cluster though, so you may have to throw a wire in for that.

    5R110W tranny pan updates

    Looks good. Any pictures of the old pan vs. the new pan? What's the difference between the two?

    6.0 changing fuel filters - any special instructions?

    I got my fuel filters fromm Amsoil for ~$45. I'll probably get the Motorcraft oil filter when I change my oil (even though I will have the Amsoil bypass kit installed by then).

    6.0 changing fuel filters - any special instructions?

    Looks like I jumped the gun a little with my last post.... after I let it sit for a couple of minutes I went out and cranked it again... finally got her to sputter to life and within a few minutes it was idling enough to go around the block. By the time I got home (.5 miles) she was running...

    6.0 changing fuel filters - any special instructions?

    Well, I changed out both filters and drained the HFCM. I cycled the key 10 times and started her up. Ran fine for about 4 minutes... was getting ready to get in and go around the block and it started sputtering and then died. Now she won't start... it sounds like she wants to, but no luck...

    6.0 changing fuel filters - any special instructions?

    Thanks for the info... Regarding filter brands, I bought the filters from Amsoil. How can I visibly check to make sure that all ofthe bits and pieces that I need are there?

    6.0 changing fuel filters - any special instructions?

    Getting ready to change the filters on my 2006 6.0. Is there anything special that needs to be done, other than draining the water seperator? Does the system have to be primed or anything?

    Converter locking question

    So when exactly does the TC lock up in these trannys? The only in depth knowledge I have on auto trannies is the 700r4 that is in my '86 Chevy. The TC only locks up in OD, and only unlocks when the brakes are activated (not wired this way from the factory... it's a custom job). I also have a...

    Injector flush and other service...

    Regarding the fuel filters, how often should these be changed? Every 10k miles? Also, I didn't get any manuals with my truck. What is Ford's recommened oil change interval on the 6.0?

    Injector flush and other service...

    Good to know. Are there any instructions out there on changing the fuel filters? I'm gonna pick up the parts when I go to get the truck and will tackle it this weekend.

    Injector flush and other service...

    So is there a valve on a stock truck, or just a plug or something?

    Injector flush and other service...

    Good stuff!! I'll have to look into that for the next time. I'm planning on adding the Amsoil bypass filter the next time I change the oil (can't afford it now, and the oil needs to be changed). Both valves look like good additions. How does the stock valve work on the fuel filter? Why...

    Injector flush and other service...

    Changing the oil isn't an issue, but they've got a good deal right now and it would cost my just as much to buy the fluid, so I'm gonna let them do it. I figure the filters are easy as well, but damn, they want $75 just for the actual filters!! Is this about right? What kind of filters are...

    Injector flush and other service...

    I've got the truck at the dealer for some waranty work (turbo will most likely be replaced) and they suggested that I get the oil changed, the fuel filters changed, as well as a fuel injector flush. I'm going to have the oil changed by them, but I'm wondering about the filters and the...

    CEL question

    CEL came on again today, so it's going to the dealer tomorrow. I'm almost positive that it's going to the the Turbo... hopefully they won't give me any flack about it and will just replace the whole damn thing. Not looking forward to spending $100 everytime the light comes on. :doh:

    CEL question

    Well, looks like I have to wait for it to come on again. I called the Ford dealer to set up an appointment, and they said that Ford won't pay for it unless the light is on because I'm passed the bumper to bumper waranty, and into the 100k powertrain. She said I could still bring it in, but...
