Just got my rebuilt engine out of the shop it's showing low oil pressure. I bought the mechanical oil gauge and its only showing about 4-6 psi. Ive already dropped the oil pan and the pickup tube looks good. I'm starting to think its the oil bypass? Anyone have a diagram or some advice to help me troubleshoot this problem? Also truck has new oil filter and new oil pump. I read somewhere to remove the oil filter to help it prime and it seems to be squirting out a good volume of oil. Does anyone have a diagram of the oil cooler also?Thanks in advance

Howdy folks! I'm currently working on replacing my exhaust system with a Diamond Eye 5" inch kit and have come across an issue. My old down pipe has corroded itself to the the exhaust flange waste gate elbow (Part #3590110).. so I need a new one, but I can't find anything online. Can someone help point me in the right direction? Should I use one from a different turbo setup?

I frequent this site to see if there is something I just gotta have... and this 1998 2500 caught my eye. Current bid is 4000.. No. I'm not interested, but I was searching 'flatbeds' and this caught my eye! seems a little odd placement of fuel pressure gauge?? supposed to have a fass, ats 3 piece exhaust, ats transmission, and firestone air bags.. then I seen this: My guess is this onboard air compressor is for air bags, and that gauge on the corner of the cab is for the air supply?

Got off the phone with Jeff at Goerends transmission today and felt a little light headed. I explained what my intentions for the truck, around 400 horse and more aimed towards towing my car trailer and 31 ford, than hauling ships or mining equipment. But I'm going to over build it so if I ever have to... We came up with a list of parts and I figured I'd ask around here to see what others have to say from experience. My truck just shy of 167k so I'll be rebuilding the whole transmission. not just replacing the torque converter and valve body. Anyway the list of parts are as follows, Master rebuild kit 2.5 quart added capacity transmission pan Billet input shaft …

I'm looking at buying a OBDLINK LX can anyone that has used one chime in and let me know are they worth the money to buy. Will it actually read and display engine check light codes? Or would it be a waste of money?

It finally stumbled a little this morning. I watched the tach drop a little,I mean just a little then the motor, like turning on the AC and the light came on. What a joke, as many cam sensors as I threw at this truck back when I had all that trouble and now I get to use one of the three new one's I have.

I have recently noticed a drop in boost pressure. so today I put some air pressure to the waste gate and only notice maybe 1/8" travel in the actuator arm. I am worried it is stuck in a slightly open position. Can i just pull the compressor side of the turbo and not remove the entire piece?

Sorry guys this could get a bit long. So I will try and stay on point. Key trick shows 1 PCM code P05000 and 2 ECM codes p0222 and p0217. (I do have a SES light and solid BRAKE light showing on cluster) Since these appeared after some major repairs, and during a new frrp install, I tried to just clear them and see if they come back. I first connected an Actron CP9035. It showed only the P0222 code, and would not clear it. Ok, so I pull out my Auto X-Ray EZ-6000. It connects fine (a bit slower than most other cars, but connects and shows intake air temp, throttle position, coolant temp, vehicle speed etc in real time) It sees only 1 code p…

Alternator output solid at 14v. ECM voltage output varies, Injector pump voltage varies. Is this normal, if not, what should I do? Thanks in advance, I've ordered the scan tool that was being used so I can check whenever. The problem is I don't know what the typical values should be. Tim

A few days ago truck didn't seem to make boost like it used too; I figure it was the fuel filters so I didn't worry much and just finished swapping a new gas tank, Vulcan filter kit, 1/2" fuel line from the tank to Vp, and threw a new lift pump on (same Walbro 392). Before I had 23 psi idle and 19 under a load; with no changes to the bypass I now have 20 psi at idle now and I can't get the truck under a load.I see under 10 pounds of boost when before this occurred it would peg the 25psi gauge.1594,0463,1492,1693 are the codes displayed on the dash.Any ideas? I'm praying the VP is okay. Turbo is dirty from the old oiled air filter on it but no shaft play.

Hi guys! Two days ago I had my Airdog100 installed at a shop local to the area I live. That night I went and picked it up and I had 22 miles to drive home. It idled fine when I left the shop, partway home it kinda sputtered alittle like there was a dead pedal for a couple seconds. Parked in garage and next day went to go get kids and it did it again with the pedal. I got it home and looked it over. Two hours later went to go pick kids up and it wouldnt start at first. I could hear the pump engage and then I left key on for about 30 sec just in case it needed that time to build pressure. It did finally start and rpm's were from 800 down to 500 jumping back and for…

Ok found out my truck is actually having a hard time starting with fuel pressure showing on the gauge. Never had this issue before and dont know how long its been going on.I have remote start and almost always use it. Until my truck gets to slightly under 1/4 tank. I have a bad cut DS so at times under 1/4 tank it will start then stall or not start till I prime the fuel system with the key bump trick. Well last 1/4 tank I remote started it watching the gauge. Started up as normal but seemed to take a bit longer to get FP up. Ok I says. No more remote starts till fill up. Next day I prime the fuel system first, it cranks a couple seconds then starts. Let it idle a bit …
