2014 Ford F-350 Super Duty Questions & Answers
Swerves alot while driving
Something seriously loose or worn:
- steering box mounts
- steering column universal joint or end clamp
- steering box inner ball joints
- tie rod ends
- outer ball joints
- wheel centre hub nut
- wheel stud nuts
A simple test is to jack up both front wheels and place the vehicle on axle stands. Then have someone hold the steering wheel, grab a front wheel at the 9-and-3 o'clock position, and shake it hard in and out. If you can feel slack or looseness, or the person holding the steering wheel can, you have a dangerous fault which should be fixed ASAP.
Fuel in water
Mr. Harris, My advise is to drain the water and fuel mixture from your fuel tank,remove if is easy the fuel tank and completely dry it up,Go by the engine bay and find the fuel pipe which is coming from the tank to the injection system where probably is a fuel filter,renew the fuel filter, blow air in the pipe from the engine side towards the fuel tank-but before you do blow air in the pipe be sure is not connected to the fuel tank,for not sending the water back in. If you did not start the car since water went into fuel,means that you finished with the above,by connecting everything and put fuel in the tank and start the engine. If you did have the engine running when water went into fuel,means that you have to remove the spark plugs and whilst are out and the fuel tank is clean with new fuel and fuel filter make the engine spinning second to second for 2-3 minutes so as the any old fuel to push out from the spark plug holes. After clean your spark plugs or renew them and also before running the engine is good to put an injection cleaner additive in the fuel tank. Better to put fuel up to a quarter of the tank and run it treating all the system.
Cracked bell housing
My initial thought is Aluminum can be welded. Depends on cracks relationship to mounting bolts. Check and see if Bell housing is separate from transmission. May be able to swap bell housings and keep transmission.

What causes the front brakes to pulsate on a ford f-350 super duty
just because the rotors are new dosen't mean they come out of the box 100%,you might have one that is running out,causing the pulse,most pften it is recommended to have them turned on a brake lathe prior installation (saves you the trouble of doing the job twice)

The
following are the general instructions on the start of diagnosing any
electronically controlled engine or transmission problem.
The
engine and the automatic transmission (transmission control is
only for automatics, engine is still computer controlled no matter
the transmission type) in this vehicle are computer controlled and in
most cases when a fault occurs a fault code is stored in the memory
of the computer control module. There are exception to this, such as
the Mass Airflow Meter and fuel pressure problems. What must be done
is to have all the basic testing done such as a scan of the system
for fault codes as well as a check with a live data scanner tool for
engine functions that are not within range of normal, a trained
technician is required to know what is correct and what isn't, then
based on careful diagnostics done from a factory repair manual the
correct part is replaced or the wiring repaired or the computer
replaced (known as the PCM or ECM,ECU), which is very rarely the
problem. Other basic checks must be done as well such as mechanical
problems with the engine as well as engine state of tune and mileage
on the engine. The transmission can have mechanical issues as well
such as no gear engagement at all or a failed pump or other pressure
related problems. Also engine mechanical problems can and do cause
many drive-ability related problem such as rough idle and other
symptoms.
Growling noise when shut off engine
I would suggest that this noise is the exhaust cooling down it gets up to 1000F when running and that hot of metal makes noise as it contracts and cools.
Fuel diagram for a 2002 ford f-350 7.3 power stroke
No idea maybe DJtech can help on this one as us poor euroepon relatives here in europe couldnt hope to afford the fuel to put in this beast let alone have this sort of info although i have done one of these a few months ago for a millionare but the tight so and so had a gas conversion on it then hid a couple of domestic gas bottles in the back to run it on well hidden they were as this would result in the vehicle being impounded by customs in any EEC country as their is no tax on a domestic gas bottles ,now you know how the rich get richer by being gigger thieves and schemers than the rest of us and use a fancy brief to get them off the hook if and when they do get caught
F350 2010 superduty vibration at 45 to 50 mph
There are a couple Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) published by Ford Motor Company concerning front-end/driveline shake and noises. One has to do with the companion flange angle on your drive shafts and the other has to do with contact being made with the jounce bumper on the fron axles (4X4 only)My recommendation is to take it to a professional auto repair technician and have him drive it and give you his opinion of whether these TSBs may apply to your situation.

All those issues are really simple
You have to completely strip all four brakes
& go from scratch. They are nothing but rust
The parking brake cables most likely needed replacing
20 years ago,rust as well
The ignition switch was worn out decades ago also
The shift indicator is either a small cable behind the indicator
that may need to be replaced or adjusted
Before you can do much with the shift, you will as with everything
else,have to remove all mechanical shift linkage & remove all the
rust & possibly braze in the worn out linkage holes to get ride of play
You have a restoration project just to get it safe & road worthy
I thing you understand all this before you asked the question,
even if it never sat for years. Unless it was inside
My 2006 f350 6.0l diesel
I suppose it would have just been out of warranty?
Anyway, it is very easy, because it is just an external, belt driven, pump.
There are just a couple of hoses and the tensioning adjuster, and the hold down bolt.
