    Engine locked up

    Have you confirmed it's not a serpentine accessory locked up? I've seen bad ac compressors shut a ford right down Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Word on the streets -- L5P tuning

    X2 I've been asked several times about tuning them as well. Looking forward to how this plays out Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Problem after injector install, no comp in 7

    Unless it's an egr motor there will not be any carbon build up. Time to pull it apart Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Problem after injector install, no comp in 7

    Melted or cracked piston. Injector would have had to pin open and over fuel heavily. There would have been smoking and knocking. Likely wouldn't hurt a piston at idle. Excessive blow by from oil fill cap? How much did you have to adjust on the valves ? Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Problem after injector install, no comp in 7

    Any popping through intake or from tailpipe? To happen that fast at idle I don't think it could have been the injector. My money is on valves adjusted too tight and piston smacked one or if you're lucky too loose and maybe bridge between intake valves came off or push rod came out of rocker...

    Crank balancer bolt help needed

    I agree. I don't even torque them most of the time. Just a good pull with my 4ft 3/4 ratchet Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Switched to the dark side

    How about this one. Lives in front of a 10k trailer. Trouble free to 400k miles. Between 4 and 500k it had to get a trans and fuel system. Have another customer with just over 400k on his, only a turbo so far. It also lives in front of trailers. Both lost weight after warranty was up. Local CAT...

    Switched to the dark side

    Pretty sure that was the "mexico" calibration that ppl were running before actual tuning was available Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Switched to the dark side

    I did it a year or so ago and haven't looked back. Best truck I've ever owned. But like others have said it doesn't get the mileage of a Duramax. I average 16.5. With a Duramax driving the same routes I'd get 18 or so. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    LML Lifting the cab for

    There are a couple hidden grounds behind the front bumper. I also remove the top half of the fan shroud, fan and fan cage before lifting the cab. Just makes it easier since there is basically no room for error with them in place. Don't forget 4x4 shifter if it's a lever. Sent from my SM-G930P...

    LBZ: My lbz thread (pic heavy)

    Well I am extremely color blind, which also has a pretty substantial effect on my night vision. My truck is only 15% on everything but the windshield which is clear and I still have to roll windows down to see at night. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Don't know how y'all can do tint that dark. I'd be driving like Ray Charles at night [emoji23] Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    LML !! Stuck injector!! Any ideas

    If it's stuck due to carbon build up from a leaking tip washer you can use paint stripper or gasket remover to soften it up. Works well with the sprinter injectors and their "black death". Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Ford 6.7l help

    I don't know if an xl truck will even pop up with a coolant or fuel filter message will it? I've put almost 30k miles on my XL 6.7 and haven't seen a fuel filter message yet. Only oil change. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Ford 6.7l help

    Yeah what he said. Either additive or drain and fill. Then clear the light with the steering wheel controls just like with the oil change or fuel filter message Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Ford 6.7l help

    Just do a drain and re-fill with dex-cool. That's what I have been using in them. According to the parts store Zerex brand Dex-Cool is compatible with all 6.7 Ford's and late model 6.7 dodges. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    No mph gauge after clutch job

    Is your trip/odometer increasing with miles driven? If trip and odo are working but the gauge isn't the issue is in the cluster. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    What did you do at work today?

    Customers truck finally rolled 500k. 2012 6.7. First 425k were trouble free. Literally just maintenance and delete. It got a transmission at about 430k and fuel system at around 450k due to grenaded cp4. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Seriously?

    Yeah sprinters are lovely. Shop I work for finally broke down and bought the Chinese version of the Xentry scan tool for them. Made things a lot easier. Chasing SCR issues is a real treat. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Anyone can't justify selling their older diesel for a newer truck ?

    I don't regret a newer truck one bit. I loved my lly's but I love my 2015 6.7 superduty even more. So quiet and silky smooth. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk
