Ford Crew cabs w/7.3 Diesel
Back on to the PSD's[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I turned 100,000 miles on our way back from Pismo Sunday. I like it when you can remember milestones like that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I was approaching the Cuesta Grade, getting ready for the long haul to go up and over it. Look forward to the next 100,000 miles

And one had a injector problem[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] when he first got it. He's had it about a year now. So far so good[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Other 2 have had no problems[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] and love them.

ya, back on the psd topic, i had some wierd problems today. I stalled a few times, on a steep hill. I'd get it to re-start, it'd move 10 feet, and just die. so i pulled the chip, and it kept acting the same way. managed to limp home by re-starting and moving ahead in 10 foot increments.
so then i go out again (still no chip). it starts to sputter and is puking out blue/grey smoke big time. i can hammer the gas pedal, and it has zero affect, just keeps chugging along, coughing out heavy smoke. so, any thoughts on what this problem might be?
BTW, great to see ya back Ned!! say hi to marge and the rest of the gang for us.

Welp, I got the In-Dash Nav installed yesterday in the efftufeddy.
This thing is pretty sweet. It gives voice commands and all that good stuff. The DVD quality is great.
Its a little difficult to find what all the functions are but im learning.
The hard part is gonna be to teach the parents. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
For future reference the wires one needs to find in the truck are:
The Speed Sensor wire: Behind the glove box the Cruise Control box sits up under the dash on the right side. Theres a large(r) group of wires pluged in. The wire is the small grey one with a black stripe.
Reverse Gear/Light wire: I found it on the passenger side under the door sill in a REALLY HUGE bundle of wires. Its a small black wire with a pink stripe.
Parking Brake sensor: I just grounded this wire. Much easyer.
Should be getting the XM reviever next week so everything will work togather.

And I agree, Ned is a sissy.
