  1. my dealership gave 2 of us training pay for the trip.
  2. Fun to watch? Got a noob next to me, and Friday he had a 2011 6.7 to change oil in. When he was getting ready to pull the plug, I was against my bench, every muscle in my body tensed just knowing he was going to get the oil bath.
  3. I just completed the on line training on the new truck...........My head hurts!
  4. I'm scheduled for one tomorrow. Any tips? Pull the cab, yes or no? Its lifted too.
  5. It needed a clutch and alternator. Theres a promo (Fireball Run) essentially a cross country event to help locating missing children. They were one of the participants. Another participant was our state representative, driving a chamber of commerce vehicle from here (thats where they were recommended to us). They had their own crew (automotive students and the instructor out of New York). My participation was loaning them tools that they didn't have (clutch alignment tool). They worked at night. They were trying to use a trans jack, but the trans was thin. I told the instructor to just have a couple of the big boys that he had to just hoss it out.
  6. Is there any misfire? I just had one that had a shorted coil in #6 injector. ICP plugged in, no start. Unplug it, it starts ok. Plug it in while running, It'd kill it. What the correlation was, I have no idea. But replace the injector, all is OK.

  8. Yeah, I've all ready taken it. It no longer will display the network map, only pcm.
  9. The Network icon on IDS (right side of the screen), on all of our IDSs only display PCM and h/s can. It used to display all modules and all networks and dtcs in each module. Anybody else see this? Hotline isn't any help.
  10. Got a 2012 f450 military ambulance to put in a def tank sender because of the heater. Our shop cant lift it, tank is full, and the brackets are upside down to accomodate the ambulance build. Oh well, bench press it.
  11. Daughter made a program for our dealership that cured the problem of looking for tools. Wierd thing, the local vocational school borrowed that very box this week (they needed that tool too). Minute and a half on the computer locating it.
  12. Just put one in an 08. I was looking at fuel trims after resetting adaptive learning. They were all over the place, up to -19. It ran pretty good for all considered. It shot its wad after 100 miles. Metal debris in the fuel.
  13. Had two today with what looked like butter smeared all over the filter.
  14. yeah, I'm at work, so I'll try to scrounge up a camera.
  15. You guys may have seen it already but Snapon, part # TAP1225, Ford 6.4 turbo arm puller. $53.00 after tax
  16. Our dealership car hauler came back from FLA. (dealer principal has a house down there), and he was complaining about 10 gallons in 800 miles. Does that count? Replacing the FPCV fixed it. After the flush of all fuel components.
  17. Please DO IT!!! Better yet, one of him wearing a soggy wet diaper too. HMMMM, might make an interesting drawing!
  18. Anybody ever had an oil leaker from the valley leaking out of the drain hole making it look like a rear main seal?
  19. Know the push pins that holds each side of the lower hose? Only release one side, then you can gradually separate the two halves.
  20. My son was hand washing his car at the dealership that he works at. The detail guy asked "Let me know how that soap works. You're the first to use it." He clocked out to go to lunch, got to the intersection, and had a seizure requiring CPR. Hospital found nothing! Detail guy has had several so far. Checking on his car insurance claim, the lady said theres been 15 claims involving that soap nationwide. I have MSDS sheets, breakdown of chemicals in it, but theres too many ten dollar words in it.
