I have a 7.3 Excursion with a CEL and need it checked out. I live in Cedar Park/Leander area, but willing to drive a little bit for a good, reputable honest shop. Can anyone recommend one here?

TIA,

 

Welcome to FTE. Are you just looking for a place to take it to, or are you interested in learning how to fix it yourself? There are several members in the Austin area that could help you get the codes read and maybe help you fix it up if you're wanting to do this yourself.

Of course since it's an Ex. If there are no symptoms other than the CEL, try the local parts store for a free scan to make sure it's not just a glow plug code being tripped.

 

Funny you should mention that.I went to AZ and the reader said it was GP #5 and another code, but I dont recall which one. It was related to the GP IIRC, the relay comes to mind.

My concern is that a couple times the truck has stalled while pushing the pedal. I'd want someone/someplace to run a full diagnostic with an AutoEnginuity reader.

I would love to learn more about these rigs. I can do normal the things. My main concern is time. Hence the question for a good, reputable shop.
