20 Most Recent 2001 Ford F250 Super Duty Super Cab Questions & Answers

Regarding the 2000 6.8 Triton. Following this diagram I pulled out the plug in cylinder 3 since code says mis fire on #3, the motor I'm working on is from a 2000 f350 with 115k on it, when I pulled out the plug theres a thin piece of paper came out with the plug its about 3/4 x 3/4 inches long stamped on it says cyl #5, the unusual type of paper feels like it's composed of Mica and something else which mics' blocks arcing so I'm thinking this little mica paper is from factory and this cylinder is actually number 5 and not 3 as diagram indicates. Best to do some research before following this since plugs and coils a real pita in these. Please advise if anyone else has experience a problem with this or if maybe this isn't for the 6.8 thanks

It is the cam sensor. It will start cutting the fuel and not wanting to run and then it dies . After you turn switch off, it will then restart. I have replaced quite a few doing the same. Hope this helps

What year... What engine? need info..... If it is a diesel with 7.3 L engine it is most likely the cam sensor. When it cranks does the tack work? that is another sign of a cam sensor It is on the front of the engine just to the right of the harmonic balancer top side. Replace it with a black one. Also could be in your IPR if diesel.

forget the torch idea as it will damage the axle bearings appear hard but in fact cut readily with an angle grinder cut at an angle and almost all the way in get a cold chisel and hit the cut hard and the bearing will crack and be easy to pull off

have you had it on a scan toll? did throw a code? it sounds like your sucking air into the system through a rubber boot from the aftercooler. as far as throttle response have you had the injectors checked?

High idleChanged IAC still the same, shown on scanner IAC 50-60 %, if it set to 40% the Idle is ok. What cause the PCM to set IAC too high? Is any one know?

sounds like the problem is in the valving in the steering box. You may have to get a new steering box. i would get it checked.

turn you key on but don't crank engine you should hear a grunt GRrrrr that is the pump! no grrrr unt no pump!

oil in a radiator indicates that the transmission oil cooler in the radiator tank has failed and leaking transmission oil into the radiator there are 2 possible fixes fix one is a new radiator fix 2 is to give the radiator oil cooler a miss altogether and opt foe an air cooler mounted in front of the radiator the advantages here are that the radiator then has a bigger capacity to handle the engine heat as there is no hot transmission oil adding to the engine heat the second advantage is that the transmission oil is being cooled to ambient temp and not engine temp which makes for longer transmission oil life the disadvantage is that it cost a bit more than a radiator initially but the long term savings are real oil to air oil coolers are available from auto transmission shops and quality auto spares shops

Check the ground on the connector on your van is the problem

Check fir worn cv axles some times when off the gas will makes noise as will bad wheel bearings both easy to check... But possibly based on miles uout transfer case may be worn or need service.. Front end work can often rid if these odd noises.. 2001 not that old would chrck for codes see if input, output sensors on trans ot transfer case needs service.. Many time can take sensor out remove metal shavings as the sensor most of the time is manget as things wear dowm sensors sometimes dont respond as they should.. But take look at axles if there play due to age the may hum whem coasting... Check blog got common problems to your vehicle they all seem to have samr general problems with age.. From make to model see what others but be careful with YouTube has more not too do s
