  1. Alarm location

    I was wondering where to locate my alarm. My truck is a 1997 F350, crew cab dually. Pretty sure the alarm is factory, but not positive. I'd like to know where it is located and where the valet switch is. Also, how do I disable the alarm until I get a new key fob? Any help would be great.
  2. WANTED Intercooler for 97 7.3l

    I am looking for an intercooler for my 1997 F350 7.3l.
  3. Exhaust temperature

    I have a 1997 Ford crew cab dually, 7.3l with a Banks turbo/stinger and a Banks "calibration chip" installed. The truck seems to run great, but I am concerned about the exhaust temperature, (after the turbo). I was pulling my toy hauler to Bishop CA, very slight grade the whole way, and when I...
  4. Need help diagnosing

    The truck is a 1997 F350 7.3 Crew Cab Dually. Today on my way home, it started feeling like a tire was out of round all of the sudden, like driving on a wash board. It quickly became worse, (within a mile) and as I slowed and was pulling over it became much worse, very violent kind of a...
  5. K&N Air Filter or ??

    This truck has a K&N air filter, and recently I've read some not so good posts on them. What is everyone's take on these filters? And more importantly, what other options do I have?
  6. Service manual

    Can anyone tell me where I can get a good service manual for a 97, (old body style) F350 crew cab, 7.3 Power Stroke? Hard copy or download?
  7. Exhaust temp

    I don't mean to be a pest here, but this diesel newbie has another question. What is the max temp I should keep the exhaust under? Will it climb to the point of melting down pistons or the turbo under a load if not kept in check with the accelerator pedal?
  8. Do I need a block heater?

    I live in the High Desert of So. Cal. Winter temps at night are sometimes high 20s, low 30s, often between 30 and 40. Once every several years we will get a freak freeze and see teens. Do I need a block heater for my (new to me) 7.3 for any of these times?
  9. What oil to use

    I'm sorry. I'm sure this has been asked to death. I did search, really I did. I just acquired a 97 power stroke 7.3, and was wondering what is the best oil to use. I think the previous owner said he used Delo 15w-40, but I'm not sure he was sure.
  10. Roller cam? Flat Tappet?

    1990 F350 extended cab dually. 7.5l. Manual trans. Can anyone tell me if it is a flat tappet or roller cam motor? Or tell me how to find out?
  11. Broke off an exhaust mainfold bolt

    Well, while removing my exhaust manifolds to put a Banks kit on my 1990 F350, (7.5l), I snapped the front bolt on number 8 off flush, (the back one was already flush). I've drilled the hole, and sprayed the heck out of it with liquid wrench. Other than patience, any other advice? I'm a little...
