  1. If it won't start with ether I would say you have a serious compression or air/exhaust in or out issue.
  2. Air filter isn't plugged with a squirrel nest/squirrel/birds/small child?
  3. Have we verified the oil level/quality?
  4. At 100 psi also, would indicate the return side of the fuel system is blocked. There was a diagnostic step that had us do this if I recall rightly and it remember the gauge tipping around the 100psi mark.
  5. Since nothing on an econoline is fun to change, why not balloon test it first?
  6. Just to put you at rest, do it on a truck you just put head gaskets in. You won't get more than 2psi I bet.
  7. I would think ether hitting that heater would be exciting to say the least. I've seen it blow intakes and air boxes all to rat shit, so a (likely) corroded all to hell air horn/heater mounting boss isn't likely a stretch.
  8. I like how there's no time for the engine to move oil about on the 6.7 before it ramps right up to 1200. Should be good for longevity in extremely cold environments.
  9. Foam it full of super clean, let it sit, then high pressure hot water on the last one I did. Worked mint.
  10. Aaron

    Why me?

    Give me his name and address. I'll call the goof.
  11. The title of this thread? The driver missed something, too! The right gear!!
  12. *shifter noises* "Yep, this is definitely fourth gear" *clutch out* "Uh....ohhhh....."
  13. Wait wait wait wait. I'm not sure why I didn't think of this before. It's a stick shift truck? Check the crankshaft endplay.
  14. What repairs need cab removal on those? I know brad mentioned fuel system. Is this something the general is endorsing or just like the early fords the techs are making life easier on themselves?
  15. Are you changing the heads? I betcha you got some bent valves. I would at the very least measure protrusion. I would tell hotline though let them or prior approval decide, or document it well. You don't wanna marry this shitbox.
  16. Someone tried to grab 4th on a downshift and grabbed 2nd instead...
  17. I put em in at the dealer when I was there. It did catch a fair amount of goop on the back of dangle flapper that hung into the intake.
  18. Word on the street is it's the bus Bill Hewitt from Powerstroke help rode to school.
  19. My buddy's truck has a blue sticker and a blocked cooler and does not set codes or turn the MIL on.
  20. There's only that few seats so the driver can monitor crayon consumption.
  21. Are you guys rocking a blue engine label on the rocker cover or an orange one?
  22. I don't remember who posted it, it may have been on here. Someone was saying they drill the stud and then hammer a cheap torx socket into it.
  23. I've only changed one for being bad. It wasn't working at all, that was a very long time ago too.
