    ford service dept is awesome

    I think its time to call ford and start bitching about your dealer. and after you get refunded some money, go somewhere else.

    Whicked Wheel Upgrade

    ha ha. Oh it will help out any truck that has been modded. its just that ford didint think it was great, thats why they stopped coming with them on their trucks mid 99 I think. something to do with noise and lag and what nots... so the stock wheel is really the upgrade if you go by fords book.

    Constant trailer wiring issues

    yeah I always wondered why do we pop rivet them on??? would it be better to use.... lets say a self tapping sheet metal screw? or perhaps a small bolt and sand down the back area first and then after installation use some paint to seal it up?? or am I missing something...

    Question 99-03 7.3 powerstroke

    grand haven huh? well then up there I'd be looking for rust at the bottoms of the doors, and rear wheel wells. When ever I look at buying used autos I look for mods. Mods are a sure sign of abuse. If it was left stock then it was most likely used by a little ol lady that just towed her boat too...

    Question Block heater cord

    So I did buy the pollack 4 plug, but in person I do see that the terminals and the part of the plug where you attached the wires are very small. I dont think it can handle the power going to the block heater. I did check out the outlet from west marine, but that thing is huge! and also black and...

    just lost my 2nd torque converter in 45k

    X2 changing shifting points will help, but if you are eager to spend money put it to new gearing, unless you like abusing tourqconverters and having to deal with warranty people. ahh yes warranty people :lmao

    lacking power until really into the throttle

    its on the turbo pedestal right under the "snail", and its a small plug facing the front of the van. when you unplug that it goes into safety mode (off) and if that fixes it then you know what to do. if not then maybe we can keep thinking of diff stuff with a little more info. But thats a very...

    lacking power until really into the throttle

    does this "lack of power" only happen when cold? EBPV could be on default due to EBVS tube being clogged. quick way to check is to un-plug the sensor, and go for a drive. this will not throw any codes. fuel bowl where the filter is should be on top of the motor. not to sure on a van though...
