This is the thread that I have been looking for. Good information here. I have a question. Is there anything special I need to know to change the trans temp sensor on my 03 PSD? I hate to get the pan off and find I need a special tool or something. Also..... is the pan gasket re-usable?



p.s I just noticed I posted in the wrong forum.. I think the tranny behind the 7.3 is different than the one behind my 6.0

Why would you need to change that sensor? Pretty much an idiot guage and practically worthless. Get yourself a real guage.

Well when the sensor goes bad it causes other problems. I don't care about the guage part. The disabled tow/haul function and eratic shifting does kind of bother me.
