Friday my truck quit, as if it had run out of gas. It had been stalling randomly for a couple of weeks. My diagnosis was the fuel pump relay. Evidently I was right. It's cooked literally.
It's not serviceable and a replacement CJB costs over $500 and has to be ordered. I don’t have the time or...
I posted this in the Modular forum yesterday. I hope you don't mind that I post it here as well.It doesn't seem possible that an oil leak this serious can start so suddenly. Shortly after my truck turned over 300,000 miles I noticed a slight oil burning smell at startup. In almost no time it's...
It doesn't seem possible that an oil leak this serious can start so suddenly. Shortly after my truck turned over 300,000 miles I noticed a slight oil burning smell at startup. In almost no time it's progressed to the point where my undercarriage is covered in oil and I leave a cloud of smoke...
My 17 year old son drives a '96 f150 with a 300ci inline six.
Evidently, it developed a pin hole in one of the steel pipes that the heater hoses are connected to and pumped out most of the coolant. My son was oblivious to this until it cut off in a plume of steam.
I was hoping against hope...
Hey guys, it's been a while . My '03 F250 4x4 and I have been doing well , Until....Saturday I heard a rubbing type of sound coming from my right front wheel while turning in to a parking lot . It was pretty loud . After some experimenting it seems like it will make the noise when the wheels are...
My 03 5.4 Super Duty goes through ignition coils like crazy. It has about 170,000 miles on it and I've replaced at least 5 coils. I'm thinking of replacing the whole set with MSD or Accel, and installing them with dilectric gel on the boots to keep out contaminants which aren't doing the coils...

It's been at least four months, but I got my truck back yesterday! She gave my mechanic some gray hairs but he and his guys did an outstanding job and Big Red runs sweet. I spent the afternoon cleaning her up and today I'm waiting for the temp outside to drop below 90 degrees so I can wax her...
Just an update on the fate of my truck ( Big Red ). I came into some money, I found a reputable mechanic, and she's in the shop. This will be expensive! But, there's nothing I'd rather spend my money on. Today I stumbled upon a screaming deal on a used Century Royal cap. Does anyone have a pic...
Looking for the best Ford mechanic in the area to fix my baby ( Big Red ). I live in Coats , Harnett County. Red will need the ABS hydraulic and electronic control units replaced before any communications with thecomputer can take place ( according to the dealership that did the diagnosis )...
Some of you have heard this before and I appreciate your help.Back in September I was in ( and caused ) a fairly major head on collision. Me in my 2003 F-250 4x4, vs. a late model Camry. Everyone but the Camry is OK, Sort of…
My truck “Big Red” sustained some serious front end damage...
Yesterday, all trouble lights. ABS, engine, tranny, and no speedo.Today, replaced the ABS-speed sensor @ rear diff. Didn't help. I had my codes read @ Autozone and low and behold P-0500 speed sensor circuit. Sales guy said may be tranny speed sensor. True or False?
I filled my 03 SD 5.4 with gas today and a few minutes later I noticed my speedo wasn't working and my engine and ABS warning lights were on and my overdrive off light was flashing!!! I've tried everything I know. HELP!!!!!
