#1083 of 1181 F250, 1997, Transmission Shifting Hard by clarkmeyer Nov 18, 2008 (12:10 pm)
I have a F250 4X4 auto trans, 191k miles, yesterday the light began flashing on my shift lever and transmission began to shift hard from 2nd through 4th gears with a noticable thud and jerk. What is the cause and likely cost?
#1084 of 1181 Heated seats add on by lzrdking98 Nov 26, 2008 (12:55 am)
I have a Ford F250 Lariat. It does not have the heated seats option. How hard is it to get this option installed? Isn't the wiring already there? How much would it cost and can it be done? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Replies to this message: ahnothin (Dec 18, 2008 6:58 pm)

Replying to: 250Diesel03 (Nov 30, 2008 7:59 pm) Negative!!!!!!!!!!! That chip is crap. Get hypertech. Hypertech is a programer and is a very safe and effective way to up your MPG and horses. You can go to www.hypertech.com and watch the videos comparing the different chips etc. Hypertech blows them out of the water. Just keep an eye on your turbo boost pressures. Also, remember that any change to the stock motor can void the warranty. You should look into that. Lastly, I have heard of blown head gaskets with your model truck, but nothing directly linked to the hypertech programmer. Good luck   T Replies to this message: keroburner (Dec 01, 2008 3:59 pm) lzrdking98 (Dec 01, 2008 4:38 pm) 250Diesel03 (Dec 03, 2008 6:45 pm) lzrdking98 (Dec 03, 2008 8:24 pm)

Replying to: lzrdking98 (Nov 30, 2008 8:55 pm) Ford has had a lot of trouble with the 6-liter diesel, and the 2003 was the first. This engine is apparently running right at the top of its design specs. Any modification at all and you are asking for serious and expensive trouble. Problems include blowing turbo hoses off under load, turbo failure, injector failure, and blown head gaskets. To keep from blowing hoses, keep the boost under 25 lbs. To keep the turbo going, don't let it idle very long when engine is cold. This puts unburned fuel into the variable pitch of the turbo and eventually it won't work. Ford calls this "wet stacking". Any increase in compression and you are asking for blown head gaskets. Replies to this message: lzrdking98 (Dec 01, 2008 4:38 pm)
