  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...
  16. Regen Question...

    Yeah, I seem to remember reading that somewhere but I'll be damned if I can find it. Anyways Vince, thanks for answering my question. Have a Happy New Year!
  17. Regen Question...

    Does active regeneration secure when the vehicle is stopped(at idle)?
  18. Tsb 13-3-8

    Thought I'd repost this over here since it seems more appropriate....Ok, as indicated below I own a 2011 F-250, FX-4, 156" WB... I came across this TSB which addresses F-250 Rear Sag. The TSB directs the replacement of the drive shaft. I stopped by my local Ford dealer and verified that an...
  19. Tsb 13-3-8

    Here is the TSBhttp://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/pubs/content/~WT/~MUS~LEN/3606/tsb13-03-08.htm
  20. 6.7 engine replacement

    Vince, do you think that TSB 12-11-11 applied here? I see it was a 2011 F-550.http://www.fordservicecontent.com/pubs/content/~WT/~MUS~LEN/3525/tsb12-11-11.pdfIs there any physical difference between the factory supplied block and the "long block" that is directed for replacement? Do you...
  21. Tsb 13-3-8

    Ok, as indicated below I own a 2011 F-250, FX-4, 156" WB... I came across this TSB which addresses F-250 Rear Sag. The TSB directs the replacement of the drive shaft. I stopped by my local Ford dealer and verified that an F-350, 4x4, 156" WB, 6.7L uses the same drive shaft. The TSB replaces...
  22. Installed Engine Software?

    I was wondering if Vince or Dave could run my VIN to see what is installed on my truck please?
  23. New Truck

    Well I have had my truck for almost a year now and so far it has been great. It seems a lot of the diesel chatter occurs on other boards these days. I had the oil tested at the 2nd oil change which showed 1% fuel concentration. I have read that Ford is not even concerned unless it gets above...
  24. info on the 6.7

    A 6.4L or 6.7L? I thought the 6.4L had factory installer pyrometers on the turbo...
  25. 6.7L Feedback

    I'll tell you it was a tough choice between what I have and the Ecoboost F-150 SCrew. If the dealer had one on the lot the day I stopped there I may have ended up with that since it will be years until I really "need" what I have. Even at that 7000 LBS is a lot of boat and I really don't see...
  26. 6.7L Feedback

    Sorry. I was really looking forward to having my 6.0L paid for... guess that is the other side of it.
  27. info on the 6.7

    Yeah I changed my oil a few days ago. I'd say about 11 quarts made it in the pan and the rest ended up on the canvas tarp I had laid out because the oil could not drain into the collection pan fast enough, Ha! Think I'll just use a bucket from now on.
  28. 6.7L Feedback

    continued...The only "issues" to date are: 1) The A.C. receptacle in the center console only puts out between 90 and 100 volts. Some of the equipment I have tried to plug into it has not worked as a result as some chargers will not operate if voltage is not with in a certain range. The plug...
  29. 6.7L Feedback

    Well having just returned from a 2500 mile trip with a total of 7400 miles on the truck I can say that I am very happy with the performance of the truck.On the trip I averaged 21 MPG. I have not hand calculated that yet although I expect it to be close. That was 4 people in the truck with...

    The TSB file is to large to post. Just google it....
