    Help Needed leaking pinion seal

    Your okay, you need another pinion seal, and crush sleeve. Maybe $30.00. The rear end to be safe, has to be set back up. That means, Axles out, diff, dropped, pinion out, and then it can be set with the old bearings no problem. I would guess a shop would charge $600.00. In Phx, A/Z you can get...

    Help Needed leaking pinion seal

    Rear ends are set up dry. (no oil) When you crush the sleeve.(tighten the pinion nut) You want like 25 inch pound rotation. Everyone replaces pinion seals, I always counted threads, marked the nut, and yoke. Then I would give it a little more. No problems.

    Help Needed leaking pinion seal

    That is the Crush sleeve your talking about. (for pinion bearing preload). If you have been turning the nut by hand, after you replaced the seal. Maybe ok, If you have had a impact on it, your going to crush the sleeve more. If that happend it won't go more then a 100 miles before the pinion...

    Turbo lag

    That is way Ford ran 2 turbo's on the 6.4, One small to get it to move, and then the bigger one with the VGT. I agree the 6.0 run's better. Maybe to much exhuast restriction in the 6.4.

    Truck cuts out

    No after it warms up, and you drive it. It will be fine. Oil even bad oil won't cause what your talking about. If you buy a good used one. Buy the o-ring kit for the 3 fittings, so you don't have to worry about oil leaks.

    Truck cuts out

    I've seen that a lot. That is the easiest way to explane it. ( It feels like a bad spark plug ) Your going to find it's the High pressure oil pump. Maybe have a tech at Ford diag it. It would be easy for them. All they have to do is take a P.I.D recording (record sensors) ICP, and IPR. Your...

    Truck cuts out

    Is your truck doing this in the stock setting ? There are lot's of problems that happen to fast that won't set a code. It needs to be recorded with a good scanner. Then you'll see what happened ( Any one know of a good diag tech were you live ) When the 6.0 came out it was easy. We installed...

    Newbie 2003 6.0

    Check codes ? early 6.0 put the ICP sensor under the turbo. They went out a lot. Look under the truck, drivers side, by the bell housing. Do you see oil leaking from the top ?

    engine code

    I don't know the history on the truck. Years ago they had a recall for that. It would be worth it to check the VIN # for recalls. If it's had that, 9 out of 10 it's the EGR valve. Clean and recheck.

    1962 F350 6.0 Powerstroke

    I had a 1964 4x4. Same bed was told by lot's of old timers from Ford. (back in the early 90's) That they had so many earlier body style beds, that they used them on the 4x4. Very nice work.

    Truck cuts out

    Intermittent problems can be tough sometimes. I wouln't ever just replace parts unless I now what was going on. If it is intermittent keep a log, with when it happend, hot or cold, and it would make it easier if you could make it happen.

    03 to 04 6.0 swap

    Early 04 they changed the ICP to the front. To get it away from the turbo heat. Is that the only connector that won't fit ? everything else is plugged in ? nothing missing ?

    Truck cuts out

    No the pedal wounldn't cause that. The only thing I've ever seen a 7.3 do. That felt like a miss. like a bad plug on a gas motor, is the High Pressure Oil Pump. The ones I've had. I had to take recordings of the ICP, and IPR. And you could see it. Can you get it to happen all the time ? or is it...

    Truck cuts out

    I just Googled sea foam, they must of said that to clean injectors. I wouldn't if it's not for Diesel engines.

    Truck cuts out

    I've never heard of Sea Foam. So the truck in the stock setting, going down the road has a flutter ? is that like a miss, or surge ? The ICP is on top of the cylinder head, drivers front. I've had Fuel pedals go bad at only cruise. (there is no cable it sends a reading to the computer 0-5 volts)...

    Oh that is mostly early build 6.0 to early 04. Then a lot of things were changed. Hoped that helped.

    2003 6.0 problems

    I've seen that same problem so many times since 03. ( 6.0 ) I have never seen a Rod bend. The cooler goes, and when it is shut down it fills the right side. Again put the whole motor back together. Just to find out that the oil cooler under the EGR cooler is what caused it. Or just drive it and...

    trans, coolant, and amsoil bypass filters installed

    Yes you see any leaks take it back in. Simple leaks came from Cam and Crank sensor o-rings, down the bed plate. If a guy doesn't know how to diag, they replace rear mains, and covers. Ford used to ignore a seep. They would say to clean it. If the truck comes back then fix it. I saw a lot of...

    clutch

    They only ran the Dual Mass Flywheel from 1994. (DI first Power Stroke) Untill 1997. All Super Duty trucks are a solid flywheel. As for the clutch let's wait and see what everyone else thinks. Your running a lot of HP.
