i just bought a 2006 f250 with the zf6 in it. the trans feels quite notchy going into gears and it like to be rev matched for the gears to engage very smooth, otherwise you gotta give it a little pressure to go in. now the trucks only got 65,000m on it and it was quite well maintained also. i...

well heres the situation.. my buddies truck is a 98 12v with 300,000miles on it. initially it started running messed up like there was no fuel pressure so i replaced the overflow valve (spring kept hanging up). solved the problem kind of, the truck would run great at part throttle for however...

i know the advantages of running a .020 over head gasket but what exactly is it gonig to do if anyone knows? what do you think it will lower the compression too? also how do you acount for the timing with the head being higher off the deck, and is the stock spray angle of the injectors adequate...

i know there are a few methods out there, but i havent been able to find a detailed description of the valve drop method yet? my only question concerning this method is why cant you just check the valve crossover on cylinder 6 instead of having to loosen the valves on 1 and do all that other...

i know that there is the standerd way of timing these pump using a dial indicator and lift spec method, but what about just using spill timing? here is the precedure i learned but i have never seen it implimented on any of these sites? is there a reason for this or should this setup work fine...
