Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2002 F250 - Steering Pump Filter - Which Hose
I have put a new steering pump on my 2002 f250 and all new hydraulic hoses. I plan to install a steering pump filter on the system to protect it from anything that is not steering pump fluid.
There are two intake ports to the steering pump. One is near the bottom of the pump and takes fluid from the steering pump cooler after it has left the steering gear. The other intake port is near the top of the pump and takes fluid from the booster.
My question is - which hose would be better to put a steering pump filter on? Is there anything wrong with putting a filter on both? I imagine the first intake hose is constantly circulating fluid and the other only circulates it when the steering wheel is used.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2008 V10 - Ticking Noise In Upper Engine
Ive been looking around for Pickups for a wile now and found one (at the manheim auto auction) and it is a beauty. Crew Cab Long Box lariant with every factory option available for a 2008 6.8L Triton V10 truck. AND it only has 64,000 miles on it!!!
Pre Sale Inspection told us the truck has the upper engine tick that is heard sometimes in the V10. Doesn't seem to at all affect drive ability. Block announcement would be Green light, yellow light for upper engine noise. Truck has been priced accordingly. Look at what MMR is.
What this is, id like to put an offer in on the truck but if at 19,600 dollars if i am gonna have to do a lot of motor work or put a new motor in it i dont see it being worth it.

2016 Powerstroke ... Bought the truck new and now with 17000km. 1st oil leaking from water separator. 2nd oil leak from what looks like the engine pan,and they have some O rings ordered for it. I have had either huge flares in all gears or slipping whatever you want to call it ? ford dealer finally acknowledged one year after me first telling them of this issue. Especially when the truck first driven in the morning never really fully engaged in gears,it has no torque and all revs. So just got it back from the dealer and its something of a firmer shift but still flares.
But also now shakes violently in reverse since i got the truck back from them. Don't really want to put a tuner on it to get shift firm enough to be practical but voiding warranty. i like the low down torque this motor produces,and in manual mode works well but still flares some. Horrible in auto no torque like driving an old beater with a worn out clutch. They replaced shift D and E solenoid but I don't think this it the issue with my transmission. im thinking of taking the truck to a tranny shop for diagnosis. Could it be line pressure ?

I'm trying to troubleshoot a leak on my 08' F250 with a 6.4 powerstroke. It's been dripping coolant when cold pretty aggressively. Once the truck heats up, the coolant leak seems to mostly go away.
Here's a picture of the drip, it's marked by a dart, so you can see the location from the top (second pic). The radiator house connection around the engine seems dry.
Pic from Top ....
What's hidden here that could be causing the leak?

The doors on my 2005 crew cab are leaking water. Its happened once before, I fixed it by resetting the main seal around the doors. Now this tropical storm had them leaking again. The rear doors are leaking from the top and getting the head liner wet, and the front left door is leaking a little bit onto the middle pillar Guage and down onto my leg.
Is it time for new door seals? My 01 has never had this problem so im not entirely sure what to do.

Right after i got this truck it developed an oil leak which i thought was the front main. Turns out after a lot if degreaser and watching its not and its actually leaking from a small tube running out of the passenger side of the engine. I think its an oil cooler line but not sure. Its where the cross member is located and i cant get in there very easily or figure out how to load up pics to the site on my phone. What this line may be?

I have a 2008 F350 FX4 with the 6.4l diesel, a couple weeks ago I was reprogramming the ecm and noticed the vacuum pump was running and wouldn't stop, so after a bunch of reading and testing i changed the solenoid vacuum valve. I tested all the vacuum lines and found no leaks.
View 3 RepliesFord 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Upper Radiator Hose Leaking?
After chasing the smell of coolant for a couple weeks, discovered that the upper radiator hose was leaking at the engine. Based on my schedule and drive schedule, and unfamiliar location this last week, I took my truck to the last people I wanted to - the Ford dealer, where they attempted to charge for the hose replacement. During this time I discovered the nature of how these hoses work and asked the tech why they don't just replace the O-rings ... "Ford Motor Company wants to sell you a new hose with labor" - a direct quote from the Ford tech. And that is why Ford is the LAST place I want to go for repairs I cannot perform. I kept the old hose - any spot where you can get the O-rings alone?

I recently purchased a ScanGuage II and installed it in our '09 F-250 SD 5.4 slush-a-matic with 4.30's and 31 1/2" tires. This unit is primarily used for towing and I wanted to keep an eye on the trans fluid temp. By the way, I really like the ScanGuage II. It gives me real time fuel mileage, coolant temp and accurate trans fluid temp, among many other things.
My question for you guys that pull your trucks hard on a regular basis is this, what is the maximum trans fluid temp that I should allow the slush-a-matic to rise to? I towed our 9000# 5ver 200 miles one way to Indy for the 500 over Memorial Day weekend and the highest TFT was around 180 to 185 max. It was under 180 most of the time.
What are the upper parameters of TFT that his tranny will endure and still live a long trouble free life?
Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Hose From The Pump To Hydroboost Leaking
Had a lot to do yesterday and had stock trailer hooked up and loaded with debris.
Got 120 miles away, stopped and got the groan from hydroboost/p/s system.
The hose from the pump to the hydroboost was leaking but it was the actual seal on the fitting that gave up rather than the rubber.
Could not find the seal but luckily the Irish place had the line in stock for a reasonable place.
Transmission got hot too backing up and puked out the front seal. I was doing a lot of twisting to get the trailer in the hole.

View 7 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Loose Hose Under Truck Blowing Oil
I crawled under my truck today (2011 6.7 w/delete kit, straight pipe) and found a black rigid hose had signs of oil being blown out. The hose was about midway towards the back on the drivers side. There was fresh oil around the outside of the opening of the hose and some on the frame around the hose opening. I traced it back up into the engine into something that I'm not sure what it is and couldn't find it on any engine diagrams. So I've taken some pictures, what it is, what it's connecting to in the engine and why it might be blowing oil out. There isn't a lot, I haven't seen any on the ground where I park but it's obviously coming out, I guess when I drive. Pics attached.....
View 4 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Hose Coming Through Radiator Fan Shroud?
Just picked up my truck from the dealer after a trans flush. While it was there I had them replace both windshield wiper nozzles. They called and told me the hoses needed to be replaced as well--- OKAY fine do it.
Come home and decided to "make sure" the trans fluid was at the correct level.
Open the hood to discover a loose black hose approximately 1/4" or so in diameter coming out of the radiator shroud directly at center of the top. The end of the hose was somewhat towards the passenger side battery.
I figured okay the tech probably just left my old windshield wiper hose on top of the motor and forgot to discard it...
I follow the hose and it appears to go in between the rubber seal for the shroud and the plastic housing. I looked back behind the fan and can see the hose twirled around an aluminum or stainless steel pipe coming up just in front of the fan but behind the numerous condensers...
MY question is two fold: Should this hose be here, or is it indeed the wiper hose that got sucked into the fan?
if it is supposed to be here, what does the end that was leaning towards the passenger battery connect to? it certainly appears to have been previously connected to something whether the washer or some other barbed fitting....
