  1. Yes, I have that Lisle tool...works very well. I bought extra double end drill bits via amazon. Comes in a pack of 8. One more thing, I did not buy thru Rotunda , I got it from tool truck.
  2. As of May 1st... fuel price has been steadily increasing... doesn't matter if SUV gets 18 plus MPG... people will always thinks big vehicle = gas guzzler. My point is.... eliminating many car lines will hurt Ford badly...unless Ford got something up their sleeves.... which I doubt that is true.
  3. Must have extremely steep rear gear ratio to get it moving......
  4. I am with Bruce, quite often I see aftermarket FICM with revised voltage that has code P0611 that won't go away.
  5. I do differently... I pulled transmission out first, ( very easy), top part of engine ( turbo, intake manifold, cooler, etc), oil filter assembly and tubing and motor mounts... My opinion... lot easier to put motor back in without transmission, no worries of lining up converter bolts... then reinstall transmission..... May be little unorthodox, but I like it and felt it is faster.....just my 2 cents... Good Luck.
  6. check upper pan rail for flatness, especially on driver side... I have seen them uneven / warp , starting from the front all the way to rear... hope you got something like large straight edge to check.
  7. Jeff_E, Everything was replaced previously. Yes, you are correct, there may been fuel in system, I already did check, like I mention before....Everything was replaced previously. Customer traded in for newer diesel, I got that job via used car department.... Complaint was hard starting, and MIL on. After replacing sender / pick up and cyl number 2 glow plug, truck runs beautifully..... No issue at all.
  8. What about these style? I use them quite a few times on my personal vehicle, unfortunately I have not done them on customer's vehicle.
  9. found the issue...missing orange valve on fuel sender pick up. edit...why can't I upload picture...I get error code 500
  10. 2008 F350 Super Cab, 129k miles...Used Car trade in. 6.4 diesel. two codes... 2291 Low IPC when cranking and P0672 ..glow plug circuit cyl 2 fuel is clean, no contaminations. filters was replaced. New frame rail fuel pump. Oil level is good, not over filled. Looks like long block or complete motor was recently replace....too clean for 129k miles and paint on block / heads...no history. When sitting overnight, cranks forever, no start...0psi FRP..... keep trying then boom..engine starts. Runs good, no misfiring. Brought to my bay, shut off, try re-start..cranks for good 20 second then starts....able to repeat that process over n over. What threw me off is FRP goes to zero, cranks for 20 second FRP then goes to 5140 psi and then starts / run. Low fuel pressure is 9psi. perform High fuel pressure test under service function...passed! Did high pressure bleed test, ..sporadic bubbles, not steady stream of bubble.... something tells m there is a leak but where? Like I mention...someone nearly replaced everything....
  11. Diesel tech here, we got swamped with work so I volunteer this job....31k miles, 2015 F150 with massive oil leak.... entire under carriage soaked with oil.... leak appears to be coming from right side turbo feed tube, oil pan is dry, front cover is dry....I already ruled that out. question is how reliable is 2.7 eco boost engine if I replace right side turbo and feed tube only? I really don't want customer to come back with blown or seized motor........I send hotline for info and still waiting for them to respond. I thought maybe some of you have any insights n these motors.
  12. Hmmm..wonder why I can't copy n paste or quote???? anyway, this is my response to DieselD... Agreed....someone posted link..... I don't do anything unless I asks first......
  13. Thanks. someone already posted on FB.
  14. Don't want to step on anybody's toes. Am wondering if it is ok to download coffee table books and then post on FB? FYI......I have not done it and wasn't comfortable to do that without permission.
