Ford's 1/2 ton Power Stroke is kind of familiar. A 3.0L 90degree V6 with advertised 250 HP and 440 ft/lbs of torque. Yeah 10 hp and 20 ft/lbs of torque than our ED, from a very familiar package. Paired to a 10 speed transmission. Can't find any fuel mileage figures yet, may not be trying hard...

I hate to weigh in as I have made some of these observations on other threads on this site, but. From what I have read and seen in the real world the Approved 2017 eco's did not suffer any fuel mileage or HP reductions. FCA has multiple times attempted to get the 2017 tune included as a...

Dave131211 sorry for the delay been busy away from PC. I believe you have received many correct answers already, but I use several, the one I ended up with in the truck was a Cen-Tech, under $200, it actually did more than my Launch CRP, the Launch ended up in my wife's 2015 Jeep GC w/ED, in my...

Final update. Tires came off today. Awesome in the rain, quiet on the highway, good ride quality, got in the mud once got stuck and unstuck. Tow light. Mileage is the only draw back, got around 38K when the wear bars were exposed, about a year and three months. Discount Tire did me a solid...

I bought my cord from Geno's Garage and they send instructions with pictures.

Wow, so $250 for a diagnostic and a new air filter. A little expensive. brokedownbutgood and sqeeter91 both have valid points. It has been my experience that once the ETC code pops ECM goes into limp home mode which puts all systems to baseline, if you continue to drive more codes will pop, such...

http://www.mycleandiesel.com/pages/Glycerin.aspx We both enjoy the same vehicle.

To be truly accurate the quoted 17.5 F ( jealous can't get that fancy degree symbol) is actually the Freeze point of #2 diesel, the gel point is actually more closely aligned with the Cloud Point which closer 29 F, some sources state as high as 32 F. However not wanting to nitpick, the mixture...

Glad to hear you are back on the road. Don't want to sound like a debbie downer but since I know diesel fuel gels at 29 F I knew up front that I would be using some type of fuel conditioner. I also know that not all locations stabilize their fuel, they take a chance on location. Here in Oklahoma...

Wow! Very interested in this post since not only do I have my 2014 RAM ED but my wife now has a 2015 JEEP ED, I do the oil changes on both. Just checked my WIX parts catalog and the oil filter for both vehicles is the same part number, double checked with MANN-HUMMEL and they also show the same...

LOL. You are correct, I try to tread lightly. After 39 years of marriage, 30+ years in the Fire Service, 30+ years as a machine shop owner, 20 years of professional motorcycle racing I don't know if I have any feelings left to hurt. That is not a challenge! Really, there are too many variables...

John: I have been rereading this thread to carefully craft a response. As I have stated I have found that much fuel dilution, normally in an engine with some type of catastrophic failure which I have the engine to repair or rebuild. Yes fuel dilution occurs, and at different percentages at...

As a professional first responder I have seen this before, with less than positive outcomes, glad you made it. Yes I would buy again, as matter of fact I already have, my wife's 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Outland w/ED. My Laramie/Longhorn has been a wonder and that is saying a lot from a guy who...

I bought my 2014 used with 20K on the clock a little over a year ago, now has 61K, got the CAT and DPF replaced under warranty and other than the mileage drop after the flash reprogram with the oil grade change I have had no real issues. The codes for Service Throttle have proven to be nothing...

Certainly. We use a B G products transmission flush machine which utilizes a double fluid containment system, one for new fluid and one for old fluid. Vehicle is raised on a lift. A transmission line to cooler is uncoupled and the flush machine is coupled in line. Manufacturer dependent the...

Same basic instructions we have in the shop, courtesy of ZF, however if properly Flushed, all fluid is removed from system, if you simply drop the pan/filter you will only remove approx. 2L of ATF vs. the 9L capacity. 50K service is an excellent service goal. I have heard and seen online the...

Not sure, best to check the websites for both mentioned aftermarket suppliers, D&J has videos, Labor unknown most posters are some level of DIYers.

MANN filters, supplier, but should be available online sourcing, WIX fuel and oil from Bumper to Bumper Auto stores. Cost $24 to $20.

Would like to address a couple of points brought up on the thread. My 2014, only transmission related glitch is when slowing to a stop if I do not come to a complete stop, California rolling stop, when I get back into the throttle I experience a hard shift from 2nd to 1st, which was...

Just spent seven hours behind the wheel of mine. The air ride is awesome, self lowering for aerodynamics, raise for Off Road. To MHarrison you might check the weight of trailer, my owners manual has a note about trailers over 5K lbs. require load leveling hitch. I haven't pulled that heavy yet...
