    Maxed out stock temop gauge

    Temp. sensor in the transmission. Mine did this a few years ago. Does your tow-haul light flash on and off? My guess. Need to replace the sensor inside the trans. pan. Barrett

    Question 6.0 Smoke on start only

    Mine has done this since the first oil change my dealer performed in 2003. Mine is a bluish-tint. Had it looked at several times, nothing found wrong. I have noticed that Rach's 05 EX does it from time to time as well. Seems to be semi-normal. Barrett

    Just Drove One!

    My local Ford Dealer just took delivery of a 2011 and he called me this morning for a test drive. (There are perks for designing his buildings...). All I can say is it is pretty sweet! You cannot hear it, you would swear it is not a Diesel. (Larger fuel filler door is a dead give away)...

    Sway Bar & Endlink Bushing Replacement????

    Can anyone tell me if the front sway bar has load on it, i.e. do you need to have the front end off the ground to replace the sway bar and endlink bushings. Also, does anyone know the torque requirements for replacement? Tired of the clunking so I ordered some new ones from Energy...

    Another EGR

    Certain meds that need to be kept cold, certain items that need to be kept warm, also, certain equipment that needs to be kept charged, plus, the radio's expend more energy that you think, I've gone out to rescue my brother on several occasions in college with his then girl friend, and a dead...

    Another EGR

    FWIW, equipment in the ambulance needs the truck to be running or plugged in to operate.

    My alarm keeps going off and wont start

    Alarm is not stock, not an option on the 03's. What are the markings, names, etc on the fob, maybe a ssn????? If no info on the alarm, we might be able to track it down with some numbers. Open your key fob, maybe some info is in there? B

    Aftermarket Injectors???

    Ok, i know some have followed my confusion with issues I have been having lately, and the fact I am not getting any codes indicating injectors. However, I know if I take mine to the F dealership, it will be injectors.... So, if it was the case, would I not be an idiot at this time to upgrade...

    Adding Cab Clearance Lights

    They are standard on a dually, optional on others. I did not think I liked them when I ordered mine, then started liking the look after, so bit the bullet and drilled. Barrett

    Question Hard to start & rough ideling when cold.

    Ok, today I thought progress. My Check Engine Light finally came on. I thought, finally, a code has been thrown, I will finally figure out what the heck is going on. I bought a engine diag. tool, hooked it up, got P 2138 and 2140 codes. Thought, finally, it's going to tell me what has...

    Alternator

    I put the 200A heavy duty model in mine in November after losing the 2nd "stock" one. With all my Schtuff, I'm sure I was taxing the stock ones. This thing has not missed a lick. Even with everything on, needle on my volt guage does not move. However, they did not have the 250A one when I...

    P006A and P0401????

    I did that, P006A is not on the list, its a new code. I did a Google on the P006A and it is "apparently" one that was added with the 06E17 flash that got rid of the EBP Sensor on the 03 and early 04 6.0. Supposedly because of my Exhaust, it is not getting the proper airflow from the MAF...
