General questions and help
So now down to the questions.
I have an E4OD transmission and was wondering about at what mile area do they normally give away at? They use the E4OD on even the powerstroke and such my year, are all E4OD transmissions The same? Do they have like the same input shafts and outputs from them? I know they have different filters for different years because I tried every single 94 filter and I ended up getting a 95 E4OD filter. When my current transmission dies, I plan to switch to a manual (I like the control of a manual better, better mileage, and also I think it's cooler). When I switch, what transmission should I replace mine with? Is it a ZF that manual that I want?
My truck sometimes has a beeping, it'll beep from the dash, it beeps 25 times in 5 beep increments? What is my truck trying to tell me? I heard it was for a airbag thing?
I feel like my tuck should have way more power than it does. Sometimes it wants to get up and go and when I'm going down the road, I look down and I accidentally started going 70 when I was going 60 other times I struggle to keep it at 60 and find my self gearing down to third on flat surfaces? It almost seems to run a little better when it's warmer like 50 degrees outside. I've been thinking really hard about getting a throttle body spacer to get more low rpm power. (Major companies like Toyota have built in throttle body spacers buy switching tubes air travel down (longer tubes for lower rpm and short tubes for high rpm)). Any ideas on what it could be? I plan on checking my timing when I get the opportunity. It took me 18 seconds to get to 0-60 mph and I see guys on here with times around ten. Should I smog delete or egr delete? I only work at subway so I don't have a bunch of money to spend but I desperately want it to be a nice powerful truck and will go the distance to get it there. Could my timing be off or a sensor? Maybe my MAF or MAP is bad or maybe O2 sensor? I have no check engine light so if those were bad, wouldn't it show a light? Or can our Computer not detect this?
There is a can on the fender well on the passenger side, idk what this is, what is it? There is a box that is motorcraft on my drivers side fender, what is this box for? Also there is a vacuum line on the top of the intake manifold, one of them is a little leaky but what are they for? There is a little container under my battery with two caps on it and two lines it looks empty and I chased the line back and I couldn't chase it any further because it went above my gas tank, the other went to my throttle body. Is that little container my charcoal canister?
Has anyone chipped their truck? I've looked and I've heard all they do is advance timing and I'm not into that because I need this engine to last me.
Please don't tell me to do headers, I don't like them because I feel like 90% of the time they get holes in them.
The KN hot air intake isn't helping either.
If the gearing isn't at least 3.55, the truck will have no power with 32 inch tires. The 5.0 doesn't make much low end torque.
The smog components are probably not related to your issue.
Any chip for these trucks is only good for a paper weight. You can slightly bump the timing for free.
