    Bama, get one of these and hang the hose from the hook up to keep the hose out of the dirt. I use them to keep the hoses coiled up and neat when not in use as well. RV Stow-A-Way Hose Strap,HH102 | eBay

    I know when mine started doing that is was shortly after I found out I had one bad battery and my FICM decided to crap out shortly after that. The FICM's are very touchy in these trucks when it comes to voltage.

    How concerned should I be with making the recommended mods to my 6.0?

    If you can delete the EGR do it your truck will thank you for it, if you are not puking coolant leave the head gaskets alone until they go pop and as far as the other items they are pretty much harmless. I have been running IDP's Extreme Street tune all summer in my truck with no issues and I...

    Question EGR Issues

    I was having problems with mine before I finally get tired of dealing with it and just deleted it. But looking back it may been the FICM on it's way out and the start of two bad injectors.

    Auto Meter Trans temp gauge

    Does anyone know where I put the probe on a 06 F350? There is a port but it is to small to accept the temp sensor for the Auto Meter gauge. Or am I going to have to buy a new pan with a port for the temp probe?
