Ok I'm going to be specific so hopefully no one is left reading this with questions. I am thinking about doing a project chassis cab (f450 or f550) anywhere from 08 and up. I am debating whether I drop a built 7.3 or 6.0 to around 350-400hp and anywhere from 650-800 foot pounds of torque. This...

Ran it through a creek and I think I got water sucked into the cylinders and it stopped and when I try to start it it will try to crank and then kill the whole system basically everything goes black. What do I do?

2011 6.7 4x4 - truck ran fine. My fuel return line was leaking so I replaced it. While I was already working on my truck I decided to install an A.R.E. disaster kit.

I've been having issues with my truck dieing and being able to just crank it back up after 2 minutes of sitting. This last go around I cranked it too much and now there is just a spinning noise with no turn over... like the flywheel is spinning but no start. Im guessing I blew the starter but...

Hey y’all. So after a little bit of researching i’ve started to question, what is the best Ford Diesel Engine and what would be the best bang for your buck? Now I know you’re going to say all of the flaws of some of the engines but I’d like to get some more peoples opinions. In what order would...

I just bought a 2006 Ford E450 diesel van. The owner doesn't know if it was designed as a straight diesel or biodiesel. It was onced owned and used by a Calironia city government and he bought it at auction then I bought from him. He said he put in what ever he could find. But I am wondering...

I’m looking at a 2011 F-250, which would be my first diesel, so I’m not overly familiar with everything, but have done some research to know the basics. The seller said the truck has been deleted, but has no info on it at all and that’s all he could tell me. The exhaust and everything looked...

Hey guys, our truck has been running good since new injectors. Yesterday we were replacing the headlight bulb, I slipped off grille guard and long story short the battery cables touched and spark (left passenger battery was left in because in theory it was a quick bulb swap). She was running...

Hi and thanks for reading in advance. I own 2003 6.0 and recently bullet proofed with no issues after it was done @ 129 k miles. My mechanic has been working on diesel ford trucks for over 20 years and is the go to guy when all other local mechanics can't fix issues... After extensive research...

I'll try and keep this brief. Couple weeks ago the old 300,000 mi 7.3 started acting up. would fire perfect, then start to buck like it was dragging a cylinder or two. Then it would get warm within a block or so and run fine until I shut it off. Outside temps were 70+ degrees and block heater...

Hi, I’m 16 and I’m about to get a new diesel truck. Ide like to delete and tune it but I’m not sure if a delete is legal in 2020. I know it has been legal as far as January 2019, but I don’t want to delete my truck off of that information then go through an emissions test and get screwed. Can...

So I'm in the process of replacing my EGR up pipe that was leaking. It's been one problem after another in this process. So far I got all the up pipes unbolted. To do this, I had to remove the transmission and the transfer case. With the up pipes unbolted I can't seem to remove any of them...
