    Not asking for help or advice, just need to rant for a second. I just had a new starter/flywheel installed 21 Jul... . my new starter is already toast. It started the truck 3 times and is now shot. Truck is back in the shop again, had to pop the clutch to get it started so I could get it down to...

    First Problem at 92K

    I recently installed a new Southbend clutch (CON OFE), along with their flywheel, did the job about 2 months ago, give or take. While out in Surprise AZ looking for a home to purchase, my starter began acting up and making an odd racket/not engaging. After getting the truck started and making my...

    Ignition Wire Identification

    I need some help. I have a new Optix EGT gauge, and I need to locate a wire off of the ignition that has constant power once the ignition is turned to the ACC or Start position. I know the colors of the wires change fairly often as they build these trucks, mine is an 04½ built in March of 2004...

    Southbend Con OFE Install

    Finally got it in, It's been sitting in a box in my garage for almost a year. Thats what happens when you get newborn twins. Anyway, the install went extremely well, no hiccups. I won't go as far as to say it was easy, because it wasn't. It's a minimum 2 men with mechanical ability job, 3 is...

    Di Pricol Pyro Gauge

    Fellas, My Pricol pyro gauge just broke on me. The center white dot that is glued/stuck to the inside of the glass fell off and is lodged against the indicator needle which inturn won't allow the needle to give a reading. I bought it from Geno's about 4 years ago. Does anyone know what the...

    Updating Smarty

    Apparently I'm doing something wrong. I've tried everything, followed directions on mads site to a T, still nothing will work. I did a search and followed all the suggestions... . nothing. I can get as far as the part where it says to type in C:\D2XX Drivers and click Next, and it's no good...

    A Fix For Loose Mirrors?

    Folks, have a small problem... not really a problem as much as an irritation. Both of my mirrors (Heated Trailer Tow) shake and vibrate when driving so bad that you can hardly make out what your looking at. It's not the black plastic body, it's the actual glass that's loose. Has anyone ever had...

    No lights in the trailer...need help

    Fellas, I hope someone here can point me in the right direction. I have a 27' Haulmark cargo trailer that I'm going to pull down the ALCAN in about 6 weeks. Come to find out, the interior lights will not work when the electrical connection (7 pin) is connected to my truck. When I connect it to...

    Whats up with the Ford Torqshift?

    I just ran into an old friend that I havent seen in about a year, he has an 04 F-350 CC LB 4x4 with the 6. 0 and Automatic. He was telling me he had to bring it in for 2 different recalls for the trans, and the worst part is that after the second transmission reflash he had no tow/haul function. We're...

    Bug Deflector Question

    Does anyone have any info on a stainless steel bug deflector that mounts between the grill and the hood? I have been looking for one for quite some time, but all I can find are the ones that mount to the grill itself and cover up the top bar. There used to be a company called PCI that made...

    Door Panel Removal

    Does anybody have any tricks or experience removing the drivers door panel? Reason I need to do this is there is a horrible vibration that has slowly gotten worse. I've isolated it to the area under the housing that holds the window/lock switches. All other doors are fine, but any bumps in the...

    Shift knob thread count

    I'm wondering what the thread count is on the shift knob of the 6 speed. It's very close to 3/8"-16, but not quite. It's obviously metric, but I don't have any metric dies to spin on, only have standard. Anybody know for sure?? Thanks Bert

    Question about engine starting

    My question is about how long the engine cranks sometimes. Once in awhile it'll fire off almost instantaneously, sometimes it'll crank for a full 3 seconds. My buddies '98 12 valve fires so fast he barely touches the key. Does this have to do with electronics, crank position, rail pressure, all...
