    Got 99 problems and my Gen 1 is 1

    Have you checked for a cracked exhaust manifold or broken stud? My truck did weird stuff like that when I had a crack between the Number 6 and 7 cylinders.

    Cooling Fan Hi/Low issue

    Maybe your bosses truck has a problem. I've seen where the AC is over charged and causes the Hi mode to kick in. It has to be in the High 90's outside before I hear mine kick on. The best way to check is to put a scan tool on it and see if the PCM is commanding the HI mode to come on. If it...

    HVAC Troubleshooting

    I thought he changed txv. He never stated the outside temperature. If it was 90 degrees outside, the high side pressure would be normal and the low side would be low. I'm no expert, but that's my take on the chart. Also, you shouldn't add more Freon than whats stated on the sticker under the...

    HVAC Troubleshooting

    It's a kit for servicing the ac. It comes with a thermal expansion valve, dessicant bag, oil and all the orings you need to change those parts. It's just easier to buy the kit instead of buying all the parts individually.

    HVAC Troubleshooting

    I didn't use the dye. The system wasn't leaking, it just wasn't cold. I'm not sure sure exactly what service kit I used, It was probably 3 years ago. That's why I said I used a kit "like" this.

    HVAC Troubleshooting

    I never flushed mine, but I did put in a kit like this. https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/murray-climate-control/air-conditioning---heating/a-c-service-kit/9412599d9a39/murray-climate-control-a-c-service-kit/mry1/muk20037/v/a/119814/automotive-truck-2013-ford-f-150?pos=0 It was Ice cold again

    Looks like it's in the bottom of the center council. For some reason I can't get the pdf to attach.

    Radio schematic

    I think it's behind the radio in the dash and I think that is basically the amplifier for the speakers except for the sub woofer. I'm in the middle of moving right now and my service manuals are in a shipping container. I'll try to get a location for the DSP this weekend

    Radio schematic

    I would do a resistance check on the wires from the speaker to the DSP. I think that is basically the amp. If those wires check out good, try to plug in a different speaker. Maybe yours got wet somehow. Otherwise I would say the DSP is bad.

    Upgraded trans cooler from Fordparts

    If you want cooler temps, You need to bypass the thermostat in the valve body with this. https://pbhperformance.com/product/6r80-thermal-bypass-valve/ I installed the bypass valve and the larger cooler. I rarely see over 200 degrees on trans temp. If you're pulling a trailer on a hot day, heat...

    I use HPTuners more for tuning my transmission. I have it setup to shift like an old school B&M Transpak

    HP tuners Cam tuning?

    I think you'll have better luck in the HPTuners forum. I found a lot of useful information over there.

    Battery over winter storage??

    I've ran interstate batteries for a long time. It seems like they don't last as long as they used to. I used to get 5 years out of them. I'm the opposite of the OP. I run my truck all winter and it sits a lot during the summer. It seems lately that after about two years the Interstate batteries...

    Need steering rack adjustment tool

    I had the same problem. turned out to be the dust shield where the steering shaft comes through the firewall. There's a bearing in it that dries out. https://s3.amazonaws.com/rparts-sites/images/996a7fa078cc36c46d02f9af3bef918b/1a4883da21f3f8d14ff6316af0525453.jpg Makes a clicking sound and...

    Powermaster Starters any good?

    They said it's not a problem. You can't really see it in the picture. But it looks like a lot bigger bearing behind the gear.

    Powermaster Starters any good?

    I decided to be the guinea pig. I bought one off ebay for $188. Part# 9632. It's a little longer than the stock. It's a tight fit to get in, but there isn't any fitment issues. It definitly spins the motor faster than the one I took out. To be completely transparent, I replaced the factory...

    Trans leak, CEL on

    Make sure your trans is at the correct temperature when you check it after changing it. I think it has to be around 197 degrees. I think that's the temperature the thermostat in the trans opens to let the fluid travel through the trans cooler. Someone correct me if I have the temps wrong.

    Powermaster Starters any good?

    I have an exhaust manifold leak on my Gen 1 and I'm basically replacing the whole exhaust system minus the cats. So I was thinking, while I have everything out, I might as well replace the starter. Mine seems to be slowing down when cranking. Battery is good. I was looking at powermaster...

    Transmission issues

    Wasn't there a recall on the output shaft speed sensor that caused the 6th to 1st shift n the highway? Worth a shot changing that. If the computer is getting the wrong info it would shift crazy
