    service intervals???

    you could probably do with a flush. However, I admit that I did my first ever flush and treat this past summer. I was ignorant of the need until joining this forum. I only hope I dont have damage from it. If your's has not ever been flushed it would have been better but it isnt fatal. I...

    Dallas needs another lawyer anway...

    well, got the call today. Unless the wife pitches a wall-eyed fit, it looks like I will once again become a Dallasite in June. I have been waiting for my upcoming employer to give me an idea of where they need me more and Dallas it is. Im looking at areas such as Plano, Richardson, Wylie...

    filter bowl pitting

    I just saw a bowl assembly on ebay with heater for $40. Looks to be the bowl and heater only. How difficult would it be (or even possible) to put that in my 97? Could I use any of my existing other parts that he doesnt include or would I need to find newer ones? It was a 99-03 bowl. THanks!

    filter bowl pitting

    last time, deep; this time not bad but covered probably 75% of the bottom. It wasnt uniform though. Kind of piled in some places. The filter itself wasnt too bad. Just had a small ring around the bottom. I guess I need to watch my bio a little more.

    97 f-350 airbags?

    I think it may have been an option. I have the icon on the dash but no liight on it and I dont have one. I htink I vaguely remember asking at the dealer and it was not mandatory on the 1 tons until later so was optional but rare.

    filter bowl pitting

    well I got an email from Dale at Tymar and he can do the complete stock bowl and the attachments for about 310$ so I'll just stick with stock when the time comes. Later than sooner I hope. Antonio - I am beginning to think the sludge is the stuff the bio has broken free from the system. I...

    Who is selling ULSD in Galveston County?

    have you checked walmart? They converted all the stores up here very quickly. I have not seen LSD available at one anywhere in the 160 mile radius my job covers. Welcome to the site. Stick around awhile.

    filter bowl pitting

    well I didnt think to feel the pits but one was fairly deep I think. The smaller one. Great. I know those things arent cheap. I only have 91k. I think that brown sludge was gunk from the fuel system that the bio finally broke free. I replaced the filter a couple months ago and it looked...

    filter bowl pitting

    I was changing my fuel filter today and drained the bowl to clean brown sludge out. I noticed there is significant pitting of the bowl bottom in 2 or 3 places. -mad Has anyone seen this kind of thing before? How quickly is it likely to require replacement? What would be the best and...

    fuel

    yes, that is right. The 15 ppm diesel (Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel) is only for the new 6.4L engines that are in the new 08 model. Your 07 has the 6.0 engine and can take the 500 ppm Low Sulphur Diesel.

    wiring question

    I want to be able to override the valve and simply shut it down. it is frequently an annoyance. That middle position on the diagram is the "OE" setting as if it had not been modified. When I looked at the diagram it appears to my unfamiliar view that even if I kill all power to the 3...

    wiring question

    click I just looked more closely at the diagram and think my override switch would have to be connected to somewhere else but the question remains essentially the same. Thanks Budro!

    wiring question

    ok, someone out there knows the answer to this simple question. How about a little help?

    wiring question

    well the longer version is - I am going to wire up the ebpv as an exhaust brake as described via a link on Joat's website - 3 position - On, OE setting, brake - so all three positions have a power supply. I, in my usual desire to do things the hard way, want a 4th position that will simply turn...

    wiring question

    ok, bare with me.... I have a 3 position switch that has power in all three positions. I want to be able to turn the power off/on. So, can I add a 2nd on/off only switch and run a single power wire from the source, to my on/off (in to one terminal and out the other), then to the 3 position...

    Noob with noob questions

    Jason, take a look here. About 1/2 way down there is a section about buying a used PSD and what to look for/ask about. It is tremendously helpful. Good luck whatever you choose. I'd like to chat about your TDIs. I plan to buy one in the next 12-18 months.

    LEGAL OR NOT EXHAUST

    they are only federally required where factory equipped. however, that does not mean a particular state cannot require it regardless. You wont get into trouble for lacking one if it didnt come with one though. The label on the passenger side valve covers say if it did.

    Rhino spray in liner

    no, the salesman I spoke to demonstrated it and I could see it was going to take a LOT of effort to seal the entire bed by hand. It requires rubbing on by hand. I have also noticed the 1 square foot area he demonstrated for me only lasted a month or two before it again looked just like the...

    Rhino spray in liner

    I've had mine about 6 years. It is very difficult to keep clean. Dirt, blood, etc. gets embedded in the pores and makes it look dingey. Pressure washer helps but still requires extensive scrubbing. Whenever you wash your truck, scrub the bed rail tops or you will get black stuff on your arms...
