  1. 2017 6.7L FSA 16U32 Oil Pressure Inspection

    Vince, I am going to take the liberty to send you the VIN via PM....
  2. 2017 6.7L FSA 16U32 Oil Pressure Inspection

    Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Will results of the inspection show up in the Oasis report as well as any required corrective actions? I am intending to trade my '11 on Wednesday and would like to know before hand....Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  3. approaching the 100,000 mile engine

    Vince, there is at least one Ford Diesel tech that recommends changing the glow plugs to the redesigned part, I take it you agree with that?
  4. 2-3 Shift Flare

    Hey, sorry, have not had much time to check in lately. I did have the reflash performed and the problem has not repeated yet. So far so good. I did get a check engine light over the weekend. When I got home I read the code and I had 2 occurrences of P0401 - EGR Low Flow. The dealer assessed that...
  5. 2-3 Shift Flare

    Yeah, that is a very valid point, just not looking forward to the process and to be honest I understand the purpose of the fee, I'd want to get paid as well.
  6. 2-3 Shift Flare

    So this intermittent issue with shift flares(2-3; delayed shift into gear from park; 1-2) has occured for about the last 15-20K miles. Because of the intermittent nature of the problem and not being able to really predict when it is likely to occur I have not pursued the fix. The dealer I have...
  7. 2000 F250 5.4L Long Block Install

    Yeah, looking at the clearance between the engine and the cowl I do not see how I would get it out safely any other way. Probably worth the investment.303-F047http://www.shopfreedomracing.com/Engine-Lifting-Bracket-303-F047-303-F047.htm
  8. 2000 F250 5.4L Long Block Install

    would you recommend getting a leveler for the engine removal. I was looking around and saw that you posted the Ford engine lifting bar (~$270.00)?
  9. 2000 F250 5.4L Long Block Install

    I am helping a friend replace his 5.4L engine with a new long block. Seems fairly straight forward but I am in the planning stages right now and I thought I would draw on the experience here for any advice. Thanks in advance.
  10. 2-3 Shift Flare

    Ok this issue is well documented and there is an applicable TSB (11-7-10). Does anyone here have experience with this issue or it's resolution? I will say that I do not notice any consistent pattern of occurrence except for that it seems to occur the first or second shift after engine start...
  11. Tsb 13-3-8

    Vince, as I think more about this is there any concern that the axle is no longer aligned with the suspension? The driver side u-bolts were fairly loose. I measured the distance from the axle hub to the lower u-bolt bracket on both sides. They were not the same.
  12. Tsb 13-3-8

    Re-aligned both blocks and re-torqued properly(both sides) to 195 ft-lbs.
  13. Tsb 13-3-8

    I am going to assume "curb height" means vehicle weight is on the suspension(no jack on frame or axle)....
  14. Tsb 13-3-8

    Thank you very much! I was going to throw some pics up but the ones I took exceed the file size limit.
  15. Tsb 13-3-8

    Rework.....I was under the truck this morning and noticed that the driver side block was about ready to fall out. I had this TSB performed at a Ford Dealer and it would appear that the u-bolts were never properly torqued. I had noticed some noise after the install but it was intermittent at...
