Sounds like maybe that could be what it's doing. I'm going to go look at the truck again, and really look it over good before moving forward. Maybe I'll drop the pan. Thanks

Thanks, that's kinda what I was thinking about the used transmission. Having second thoughts about this truck, needs a bunch of work besides the transmission too. Just curious as to why the truck would stop after driving a short distance. Idk, I'll keep you posted. Thanks

I haven't driven the truck, I was looking at it to possibly purchase, and that's what the old owner said. Yes, it just revs, doesn't move. just wanted to check if it may be something simple, or for a complete swap or rebuild. I found a 47re out of a 02 and wanted to know if that would work. Thanks

Hi everyone, I just purchased a 97 3500 4x4 DRW with the auto trans. The truck drives about a half mile and stops, it will not move. Shut the truck down and restart and it goes, but repeats itself. Reverse works, but I was just wondering if there is anything to check before replacing the transmission...

Yeah, I replaced the fca, so that wasnt it. What kind of 2 stroke oil is recommended? Is it a good idea to run 2 stroke oil on a regular basis? I try to run power service as much as I can, but 2 stroke oil is probably cheaper and seems like it would really richer up the fuel. Do you guys...

Replace the fca with a modified one I had and the noise is still there. Does it make sense that it may be an injector?

I don't think there are any codes. No check engine light on or anything.

Never mind, I didn't change that. I was confused with a different part. I will give that's try. Thanks

Hmm, I replaced that a year ago, when I was having issues with the ECM. Could it go bad that quickly? What exactly would it be doing to make that noise? Thanks

Also, I noticed tonight while plowing a drive that while I was going very slow the sound would start and the truck would almost pep up a bit. Almost like the timing is advancing, or something. 2003 3500 SRW 4x4 NV5600 Smarty AFE Stage II

Hey everyone, my 03 has been making a kind of ticking type sound at a certain rpm. Kinda hard to explain the sound but I'll do my best. The truck is normally fairly quiet, but the other day when I engaged the clutch to stop I heard the noise as the rpms were coming down to idle, just for a few...

Ian, I lucked out and added some power service and changed the fuel filter. All is well, for now. I recommend try this first, before doing anything with the injectors. Let me know how you make out. Goodluck. Jeff

No, the set is in a spare motor I have. It was the original motor to the truck, and the injectors were good when the engine was pulled. If I do go ahead and pull the injectors to swap, do I need to get new o-rings or gaskets for anything? Thanks again.

I will go ahead and give that a try today. Thanks, that would be much easier than swapping injectors. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks. I have an extra set of stock injectors that we're good, so I will go ahead and put those in. I will update after the change. Thanks again.

There are a 130,000 miles, smarty s-06, afe intake. Seems as though from what I've read, that the injectors may be sticking open allowing the fuel to drain back to the tank. When cold there is not enough fuel pressure to start, but once warmed up, the injector expands allowing fuel pressure, and...

Batteries are a year old and seem to be strong. They are a cranking it over a little slower than normal on these cold mornings, but no where near dead. Maybe I should put a charger on tomorrow morning for a bit and see if that makes a difference? Thanks

Hey everyone, My 03 has been taking a little longer to fire when starting the past couple months, and now in the morning it's not starting. I plug in for an hour or so and it finally starts and runs fine, no stumbling, smoke or anything. Once warmed up it restarts fine. Grid heater is...

I've also been reading about greasing the bearings through the abs. How is this done, and what is it greasing.

Not familiar with the 08 upgrade. Do the 08s have better bearings? Was thinking of converting to the manual hubs that ford uses , but that's pretty expensive too. Yeah it's going to put a dent in the wallet, but hopefully it's good for a long time afterwards. Thanks
