  1. I am looking for a 2L1Z-9431-DA Left exhaust manifold & 2L1Z-6038-AA Right motor mount. I have exhausted all my resources anybody got any other ideas?

    We also sent a request to Ford they replied something like....We can not supply any parts info for a 15 year old vehicle :twack:

  2. What a pain...Looks like the WSM has to correct location. In the component location charts section it list's 3 ABS module options. 1 option is for the dash & 2 are for the frame.
    The location link for the module in the wiring diagram is wrong as you know but it looks like the connector link location is correct.

    Just think you could be working on a Cargo :banghead:

  3. 2011 6.7L Someone else changed EGT 14, it also had a whistle noise from the extension pipe leaking/bolts broke.

     

    Before...bung partially broke, EGT sensor threads messed up & not seated all the way

    After... I used GM part# 11570821 for the studs, the knurled part was slightly smaller the OE so they were tack welded in place

  4. Cummins isn't the problem...it's the fact that it is hitched to a Chrysler product :banghead:
    I think it's always helpful to learn something new, so go for that...now working on FCA under warranty and trying to turn a profit is possibly a skill in it's self. A good parts guy for starters then all the stuff Keith mentioned....Thier scan tool is pretty nice. It would also seem that Cummins has their specs & info, then FCA will come out with thier own rules???

    I have always heard you cannot turn the 3.5/3.7 backwards without risking engine damage.

    You would think there would be a printed warning about this. I looked and I didn't find one.

     

    On the 3.5L it does have the same warning as the 2.0L. I guess by default when the WSM says to rotate the crankshaft clockwise...

     

    I do remember Chrysler trainer telling a story of smoke checking the exhaust...I guess shop air in the tailpipe was enough to rotate the engine backwards & jump the timing chain

     

    This is what I did on a 2.3L so I would not be tempted to...

  6. Prep the customer for sure on the fact that FoMoCo has certain warranty terms..eg they will not cover installation errors ect. Or your HPFP warranty will only cover manufacturer defects. You already document all your stuff so present your findings whatever they are in a diplomatic way and..

     

    Since you are a teacher this could be a teaching moment :)

     

     

    Couldn't a circuit or control valve fault be proven with a DSO and amp clamp without any exploratory surgery?
