  1. I did catch it only because I happened to be sending Chad a text....Sometimes I miss the obvious
  2. 2013 Chysler Penastar roller went bad & wiped out the cam
  3. You know I kept thinking to myself...I don't remember those exhaust manifold studs being that long, even went so far as to compare with my old studs
  4. Exhaust manifolds on a '12 6.7...What's assembled incorrectly/missing in this picture
  5. Fuse Chart fuse_selection_chart.pdf
  6. P/S pump on a '11 E-Series these pump are nice, they come with the pulley installed. Also the parts catalog is unclear about the o-ring for the pressure line @ the pump. I ordered BC2Z-3F887-A & it seems to be correct. This o-ring is just slightly bigger then the normal P/S O-rings.
  7. How many techs still have those metal tins of steering column bearing grease or slip ring grease in there toolbox
  8. Maybe the engineers should done something really useful with that LP_FUEL_SW Pid & made it read NOT_OE My thoughts on AM filters especially on a diesel....Anyone that wants to use a AM filter should be prepared to buy a AM engine.
  9. And the cap tightened...I very much dislike messes, especially filthy diesel oil. I will say the worst mess I made was during my first experience with a 6.4 turbo oil seal leaking...Yeah bad idea to rev it up....I was outside my almost brand new shop, the wind was not in my favor & that filthy POS sprayed oil all over 2 sides of my 18 foot side walls...I wanted to scream ...I got a customer that does commercial power washing to come out & clean it. He had to use his heavy duty cleaner & a brush.
  10. Less back pressure on the flames & engine components as they exit.
  11. What was the results of the relative comp test & what are ST FT? Fuel sample & check for metal in the upper fuel filter.
  12. I recently purchased a handheld OEM style B crimper to replace the battery cable positive terminal on a late model F-150. I used this crimper http://www.sargen...l_B_Crimp_Terminals/ [sargenttools.com] Sell sheet680.pdf I wish this pic was better quality but... Here is the crimp I made with the tool Voltage drop between B+ and the starter so as to validate the repair. The was peak voltage drop during actual cranking it was closer to .25 volts The part # for the terminal is BT4Z-14450-AA. This is actually listed for a MKX/Edge & the only difference that I found was the nut size.
  13. I have no experience with the 1.6L. With that in mind it sounds like a calculation error maybe from a sensor. (APP, CACT, or O2 sensor.) The other thing is VCT or timing? So no codes?
  14. The tune & vehicle are not in sync...Update the sync module I'd remove the tune, What about the EGT sensor wires for shorting out. (Poor delete install http://www.forddoctorsdts.com/topic/5920-whats-in-your-bay-part-vi/?p=60797 ) What does the V Ref or CEL do when it stalls. What IFS, FRP V, & MAF V pids do when it stalls.
  15. The MEOE221 is now MEF 367 & the MEOE 215 is now MEF 355 @ a better price.
  16. Expecting a tech to put fuel in a vehicle in order to work on it is like thinking the doctor should drive the ambulance. The 2 most commonly used tactics @ my shop when this occurs is...Customer you have just purchased some very expensive fuel or I will run it till it quits... you better show up with a gas jug
  17. Truck 2 is fixed. Plugs, COP boots & TSB 15-0003(Brown PCV & Reflash)...Oh yeah 1 coil also..It rolled off my tool cart & broke the flange above top seal...So guess who gets to eat a coil I just so happened to order 2 coils in just in case...I pull the first coil off the parts shelf and guess what it's broke in the same spot. So note to self do not drop those Denso style coils. :hammer: Truck 1 will be back next week....still waiting on the positive battery cable end to come in, I guess Ford had to make it??? Thanks for all the input Tony, Tyler & Zach Now I am not having much confidence in the 13-8-1 fixing the random misfire...Anybody need a $3x.xx piece of flat rubber..
  18. If Leon ever stops by my shop to collect his prize he will see a BIG sign that states...Bring all I've nevers here. This is what I have also always done or the IH stuff. I use the IH stuff on my building also, I used it to seal up a A/C drain on the west side of my shop & after 5 years in the sun it still looks new. I did end up using the TA-29 on this job, more as a test then anything. After I felt there was a high probability Leon was correct I put oil in it and drove it out. I do not see the point of pushing a self propelled object....when I do have to move one around I use a vehicle or this http://www.bobcat.com/loaders/skid-steer-loaders/models/a770/features (I rent it from the neighbors)
  19. Did plugs 70 K ago, I pulled #6(P0306) & it looked fine. I guess I should hook up my Pico... This thing only misfires @ high RPM's very randomly, usually only after highway trips. I could not get it to misfire so I hosed the CAC down then I got it to misfire on heavy accel for about 30 seconds on #6.
  20. Leon was correct, bolt # 13 for the upper oil pan was broke. I also replaced 14 & 10, I did not replace the long bolts because they have to come from MI or another dealer. According to Oasis this truck had 3 Turbo's in 2012-2013 maybe that is were that metal came from??? So is everyone using TA-29 for RTV on the lower? Man the pan was a pain to get loose. On a side note I have found that diesel fuel works pretty good for softening up RTV. I used this & a left hand drill bit to remove the broke bolt
  21. 2011-2012 F-150 Ecoboost. I have 2 of these to work on, truck #2 has not had full diag. On truck 1 I am planning on doing TSB 13-8-1 (revised bottom air deflector) Does not have P0430 so am not planning on doing the Cat Question...Does this seem to work & should the CAC be checked for excessive moisture? I noticed that none of the local dealers have the DL3Z-2021702-A in stock but they stock the updated CAC. I am also going to do TSB 15-0003 since the oil is overfull & the truck has too many miles for 15N05. Any hope of the TSB 15-0003 taking care of the fact that it has a sooty tailpipe & a puff of black smoke on heavy accel/cold?
  22. Anybody using the replacement parts list? Why is this not available to the parts people also, since most need all the help they can get Oh yeah for any discrepancies always refer to the online WSM for the most up to date info
