    AC Problems

    2004 Superduty 6.0 PS My AC doesn't get as cold as it should and sometimes when I first start out the AC comes out the defroster vents. After a while it start to come out the vents like it should. Noticed first when I had the AC on MAX. But it does it either way. I suspect a vacuum problem. Any...

Put it on the bolt and tap is to just to jar the bolt a little do this while applying the penetrating oil (I recommend Kroil if you can find it, great stuff) The vibration from the punch and tapping helps wick the oil through the...

    Hello All I'm just starting out

    Thanks for all the good welcomes. You all sound like we are good friends because of our common love for ford trucks. I hope to get my Bronco ready for the street again in the spring.

    Howling whistle noise

    I heard a howling, or whistling noise in mine and it turned out to be a crack in the hose coming out of the turbo. Mine went through a EGR cooler leaking antifreeze too. After that repair my hose started acting up. I don't know that they are related, but it wouldn't surprise me.redxlt

    Vacuum / 4X4 Problem

    A guy I work with seems to think there is some kind of valve, or module on the firewall that could be the problem. Does anyone have any diagrams of where the vacuum lines run? And the routing it goes through? I have also heard of a method of very low pressure induced smoke into the line and...

    Vacuum / 4X4 Problem

    My 2004 F250 Superduty Lariat has a vacuum problem. The automatic hubs do not lock in when I select 4WD. I can feel the drivetrain kick in, but the hubs don't. I couldn't turn them to do it manually, but I fixed that tonight. Now, I noticed that when I select 4WD, it works but my blower/vents...

    Hello All I'm just starting out

    Hey everyone. I hope to develop some good relationships here. I am a loyal Ford owner. My first was a 1973 F100 2wd, then purchase a brand new 1978 Bronco, best vehicle I ever owned and still own. (It is in sad shape now and may cost me my marriage.) I owned a 1970 Galaxy, a 1978 Mustang, 1980...
