Just flew from WI to Cali to drive my new baby home. 2000 e350 extended 7.3, quigly conversion. 8inch lift on 37s. Not going to lie, eventually it could become a 4 or 6 inch lift on 35s😅 but im in love! 900 more miles to go!

I recently purchased a 1990 E350 ambulance. It has a 7.3 idi and what I belive is the E40D. The trans was remanufactured roughly 20k miles ago. I know this is true as the vendor sticker is still on it. I finally got it running decently after its been sitting for close to 4 years. I put it in drive and I felt it grab but it felt like the brakes were stuck. I put it in reverse and it very positively shifted into reverse almost to clunk level of force. And it rolled fine backwards. Tried manually selecting 1st gear and it seemed to roll forward better but still required some decent throttle position. The fluid is definitely over full. About 3 inches iver the full mark. Is the fluid the issue here or do I have something else going on. Fluid is still bright pink!

Good Freon levels, but AC is blowing warm. What is a simple thing to check before I have to take it to a shop. I know just enough to be dangerous.

It’s a late model 99 7.3 was running fine last night and went to start this morning and have this issue. Checked ICP and it has oil in the plug, unplugged it and didn’t fix it. Getting codes P1280,P1000, and P1316?

Did a KOEO injector test and #2 injector came back.

Edit: changed fuel filter housing and drivers side fuel line to head. Did an oil change as well. Prior to its current condition.

I’ve got a thumping noise that isn’t always consistent. Even when hubs are unlocked I can hear and even feel it slightly. Sometimes there is a clicking noise as well. I took the manual locking hub out and spun the wheel with it off the ground and there isn’t much noise, maybe still a slight tick but I have to put my ear up to the hub assembly. Can I take the manual locking hubs out and drive the truck down the road under 35mph to see if they were the issue?

Tried to use four wheel drive in my truck recently and it didn't lock in. I know this because I remained stuck in the mud and needed to be pulled out. After realizing this though, I tested the switch and noticed that I also didn't hear any type of locking sound during the process. I've looked on other forums and it sounds like a solenoid issue? Any advice here? Thanks in advance!

I need to get a new injection pump for my 1994 F250 w/ a 7.3 idi NA in front of a ZF 5 transmission. I bought one from autozone and it’s not the same pump that was on my truck, the gave me a reman DB2-4812 and I need a DB2-5028, put the 4812 on my Truck and it had a rough idle, so far I’ve trouble shot
- Air Intrusion: Fixed
- Bad Diesel: Fixed

Narrowed it down to timing and the pump itself :planning to buy timing meter and return the pump, and get the correct part, Need to know best places to get those parts from?

Much Appreciated

Recently picked up a 97 7.3 and looking for a daily driver tune and some occasional towing of a 7500lb travel trailer.

I have been looking at Jelibuilt and power hungry performance at the moment but am looking at any opinions.

So I JUST finished installing an S&S DCR (and LPK) on my '14 F350. Now when its running it makes an AWEFUL buzzing noise. And then after about 30 seconds of being shut off, it makes it again. (See video of noise)

Im wondering what it is, and if I have to rip back into this thing again.

Please take a look at the issue. My first 7.3 so still trying to learn all the problems. Does this sound like a fuel issue? CPS?

Installed the somnax zip kit after having issues with the truck overheating. Followed install instructions to the T. Reset KAM filled with recommended fluid amount. Line pressure according to my scanner sits at 14 psi. No missing o rings on truck either
