  1. Oil sensor?

    Update #2. Even though the sending unit is fixed, looks like the gauge is on it's last leg. Time to hunt down a new one or hook up an after market one.
  2. Oil sensor?

    Quick update. Found out it was the oil sending unit. Went ahead and had my mechanic fix it, no extra time with a new job.
  3. 73 F250 stalling

    StallingThanks Frank. I went out and started it up a little bit ago. It idled high but it didn't die. I let it run for over five minutes. I did notice a bit of oil leaking on the front of the engine just below and to the left of the right manifold, looked like coming from the seal. I did...
  4. 73 F250 stalling

    Last week when I put gas in my truck, the attendant misunderstood me and put supreme in the tank instead of super. I drove it for a few days with no problem. Last night I drove it about six miles, parked it for a few minutes and then when I started to drive home, it stalled on me when I come to...
  5. Oil sensor?

    Thanks guys, I'll try to get a mechanical gauge on it soon. What weight of oil do you all typically run? I'm in the Pacific Northwest and am using 10W30 high mileage. Should I switch?
  6. Oil sensor?

    Hey all! Not sure if I'm having an oil sensor or oil gauge problem. When I start my truck, the gauge reads about normal. After a while it slowly drops to Low. Any thoughts on what it might be?
  7. Turn signal problem

    Thanks guys, it was the flasher. A $3 and 2 minute fix!
  8. Turn signal problem

    Today my turn signals decided to freak out. They blink rapidly on the dash light indicators and the exterior lights as well. I don't hear the 'clicking' sound either. Is my switch shot, or is something else the culprit?
  9. Replacing rear window seal

    I did see that one, they make it look pretty easy. Will probably attempt it in a few weeks with the help of some buddies.
  10. Replacing rear window seal

    Appreciate the feedback Fellro! I'll definitely go to You Tube.
  11. Replacing rear window seal

    How easy is it to replace the rubber seal on the back window? I have a slider window, so is there a different type of seal than for a full glass window? Mine is in pretty bad shape, want to get this done before the Oregon rainy season gets here.
  12. Electrical issue. Yah, I know, nobody's favorite.

    FatherDoug- That's what is strange, all the other indications line-up perfectly. Reverse is the only one not lining up. you have to push the pin on the switch all the way to the left (beyond park) to get the reverse lights to come on. This was the case with 4 different switches. She starts in...
  13. Electrical issue. Yah, I know, nobody's favorite.

    Thanks fellas! Great info from both of you. Now to get under it and take care of this once and for all.
  14. Electrical issue. Yah, I know, nobody's favorite.

    DNFXDLI- Not that I can figure out. It seems to be something more in the switch or wiring itself. It's really weird, everything else lines up. You can start it in park and neutral, but not in reverse, drive, 1st or 2nd, which is how it should be. This is both when mounted to the column or when...
  15. Electrical issue. Yah, I know, nobody's favorite.

    Thanks Big Jim, I'll check it out!
