    Most of the diesel vendors sell them. They make em for your powersteering pump too.

    CPS Failure? or not?

    Hmmm, if your WTS light is NOT coming on, then its possible you have computer issues, or wiring harness issues. THe WTS light should ALWAYS come on, even if the engine is up to temp. It just will go out faster than if the engine was cold. Warm engine = warm oil = lower oil pressures? Maybe...

    Pick your chips wisely

    You buy the physical part, but you dont own the code/information contained inside. Thats copyrighted. Its like buying a DVD movie. You OWN the disk, but you cant "do whatever you want" with the content. Like make copies and sell them, or charge admission to watch it at a large hall. etc etc...

    Pick your chips wisely

    Yeah, its a VERY small community of chip makers. Many of them are rebadged too. Only 4 or 5 burners out there, but a number of sellers that relabel someone elses chip. Im not saying thats bad, just something Ive noticed. Now, what would be cool (and will never happen) is if all the chip...

    transmission question

    Sme place they stand on everything else. "You screw with it, we drop your warranty". Officially, Ford is supposed to PROVE that your changes broke your truck, however, im not sure they can tell that the sonnax/tricum have been done unless they mic the parts and check the spring tension. I...

    radiator coolant change

    Evans I believe. Since its not "water based", its supposed to not suffer from "cavitation". Its also a NON PRESSURIZED setup, so you drill a hole in your radiator cap.

    Air horns

    They should. Allows you to replace them if they get damaged, instead of changing out the whole thing. Mine unscrew, and I think MudHog's unscrew, and his are grovers I think. Mine are taiwan "yankee horn" rip-offs, but they sure are loud at 120psi!!!

    Air horns

    Unscrew those bells, take em up and have them "Soda Blasted". They use baking soda, and it takes the paint off, but DOES NOT get into the metal. Then get em chromed!

    radiator coolant change

    http://www.forgotton.net/diesel/greengold/index.htm click that. its my "green to gold" coolant conversion. I CANNOT find Zerex G-05 anymore, so you mayhave to go direct to ford and get THEIR gold. You CANNOT use just any old coolant. These trucks require certain types, I dont care WHAT...

    Did some more projects today....

    Ya, what ^ said. I also posted it in the WIKI. OK, drain the OLD oil and remove the OLD PAN. Do your sonnax/tri-cummulator install. Install NEW mag-hytec pan. Fill with 7 quarts, PLUS however much "additional" that a mag-hytec holds. Pump out the oil via the return line just like...

    Did some more projects today....

    Did another project today. Added a diode to my headlight upgrade harness to enable "high/low" at the same time. Took all of 10 minutes, and cost all of 2 dollars. Even took pics so others can do it. Its a 10 dollar option on the blackcloud diesel upgrade harness. The GOS Performance...

    Transmission Fluid Change

    There is only one filter, and that is the internal tranny filter mounted in the pan. Its about a 200 micron filter and is nothing more than a sponge designed to stop LARGE particles. Not the really small stuff that causes the true damage. Install a "Magnefine" inline tranny filter just asfter...

    Did some more projects today....

    I have APCs now, and they should be able to handle the heat. I know what your talking about tho. When I drilled my parkinglights and brake lights to install my strobe bulbs, the "chrome" material inside was VERY thin.

    Did some more projects today....

    Did the "Heater Core Bypass" mod today, and also flushed my tranny per the "tranny flushing instructions" and switches to the Mobil-1 synthetic. I had to go to 4 different Auto-zones to round up 20 quarts. Cleaned em all out! I should have pics up in the next day or so. Not really a whole...

    Pre-pump and in tank mods

    I have pics of one of the in-tank mods you need to do. www.forgotton.net/diesel/intank/index.htm Click that. If you have a helper or two, its almost easier to remove the bed than to mess with dropping the tank. Its really 6 of 1, half dozen of the other.

    Speedometer Calibration Question

    See above post. Thats how different! The other option is to by a speed recalibration box from one of the aftermarket companies. I think its called a "tru-Speed" or something. Its a spendy box, but it allows you to recal without going to the dealer.
