And I have 5 years on you. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

NEVER EVER!! LOL

I have wanted to do that to my old ford some day. For now I have a scuba tank I use to fill after pismo. I can fill my 4 tires on the truck from 12 psi to 50 and my sons mazda from 6 psi to 36 twice on one filling.

I always tell the wife when I am spending money. She doesnt always agree but I still spend it.

I have heard that one before. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

That is pretty impressive. What is a preditor? Sounds like a carb.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

Ok Ford Guys, I got one for ya, any possible solutions to this would be helpful:

I sold my bro-in-law my 2002 F250 Diesel, complete with the Superchips programmer....that truck has been in the shop twice to replace an oil line feeding the turbo, and it is leaking again...Problem? Either the programmer is lost, hopefully misplaced or stolen, and he has the Tow Safe program still in there! Now, if he takes it in, the warranty is voided, they get charged for the repair, and the reprogramming.

Again, any ideas would be helpful.

Thanks,
TPR

It's a programmer for a diesel pickup. Allows you to change the fuel timing and other stuff to very the horsepower. I believe that one allows for multiple levels. Some can add well over 100HP. With multiple levels you can have a level extra oomph for towing (like what TPR is calling "Tow Safe" in his post) to 100HP+ ***** out power. You really don't want to tow with a high HP program. I think your EGTs get way too high that way.

TPR, how can having the programmer affect the oil line feeding the turbo? Does the programmer somehow cause the oil pressure to be higher causing the line to rupture? Or are they just using garbage parts? Or not doing something right?
