    Rough Idle no power

    Ok so I am driving down the interstate tonight and I'm cranking along doing about 80-90MPH for about 10 miles. I get off and then I pull into a store plaza and notice my truck's idle sounds a little different. It sounds like it is rattling more than a normal diesel. I get parked and I noticed...

    Fuel Sending Unit or Dash Cluster?

    Thanks for the ideas. I hope to check this stuff out this weekend. I never got a chance to refill the tank this weekend because I never drove it so hopefully by next weekend.

    Fuel Sending Unit or Dash Cluster?

    The other day I was driving my diesel Excursion and noticed I was at about 3/4 of a tank. Plus I always keep track of my mileage every fill up. Well I got to where I was going and then on my way home I noticed the gauge said full. Well I put close to 300 miles on it since then and it is still...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    Well I just also forgot some more information. See when my truck makes the noise, no check engine light comes on, no OD light flashes. It just makes the noise. It also doesnt matter what temperature it is. It even does it when its blistering hot out. (I'm pretty sure). Also the difference is...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    I forgot to mention one other thing that I haven't mentioned before. When i am driving and the transmission is shifting and it starts to make that "bogging noise" during shifting, if I step on the gas hard, to the floor, I can make the bogging noise last for a few seconds. Say if I am entering...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    I wanted to bump this and tell you what I have found so far. I have checked the fluid onthe dip stick and it looks clear. It's light red and doesn't smell burnt. The bogging noise I hear is everytime the transmission shifts now. I still haven't had anyone pinpoint what it is. I just brought...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    Ok so I tried that and two things, well three, One the hissing went away, two the bog hasn't, and three, I pulled the plug on the top of the water pump on the passenger side like you said and it threw a code or the check engine light came on. I still can't figure out what that bog noise is...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    I gotcha on the drag racing thing, no matter what it's still sticker shock. I'm gonna try that and disconnect the EBPV. Can you explain in more detail what it looks like and where it is? Is it an electrical connector? How many wires? Is it on the passenger side or the driver side of the turbo...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    :clap:;tu:sauced Well, in my drag car my motor is building about 750HP and around 650ftlbs of torque. No I know my Excursion isn't building that sort of torque and my trans cost me $1,000 bucks to build and another $600 for the converter. I dunno, I just can't see how it's justified but oh...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    Thanks for all the information. It just really shocks when what the stuff costs. What I will be spending to replace the trans if thats the problem is as much as how much trans cost for 6-7 second drag cars with enormous amount of power! The only problem Iam having now is that no one on here...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    Well the hissing sound you are talking about I am hearing now here in NJ since it has been cold (teens to 20's and 30's). I usually hear the hissing when I dont have the block heater on. The great thing about the block heater is when I get home from driving it around I plug it right in and the...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    Yeah I saw quotes on other forums. I am looking at prices near and upwards of $4,000. :dizzy Thats expensive. My race tranny for my drag car is only $1200 and thats with about 850-900 HP in front of it! I dunno. The only thing I can do is call the guy and see what he says. Im sure a good part...

    Question Bogging noise... Turbo, Transmission, I don't know..

    I posted a while back on here well over 2 years ago regarding a bogging noise I was hearing randomly. I thought it had something to do with the turbo. That's what it sounded like. Because when the bog noise started I lost power and when I really got on the gas the truck didnt go anywhere. Well...

    Help Needed Ball Joints on 2WD Excursion (replacement)

    Can you post a link? Maybe the seller has more up on ebay? I would just hate to get a ball joint press and it not work, break, and/or not have the right fittings need to press my ball joints out.

    Help Needed Ball Joints on 2WD Excursion (replacement)

    Do you know the exact size I will need to get it done to make sure the right coupler size comes with the kit. I'll buy it if I have to. I dont know if there is a different in sizes between the 4x4 and the 2wd. I imagine there is.
