You and i have talked before on the phone when I first bought my S/C of course you won't recall. I bought the S/C in 07 it is for an 04 F150 4X4. I just had it installed 5 days ago ( life got in the way ) Had a custom tune applied all is well except it leaks oil @ the pulley. What a disappointment. Is this a common problem with the 2,3L? What needs to happen to repair can't have oil spitting all over my S/C. Is it a big job? Is it critical or straight forward can it be done by a good mechanic or does it need to go back to you guys? I realize that I stored it for 4 yrs before installing is their any warranty relief? Parts?

My first trip with the S/C installed was pulling my holiday trailer which is why we got the S/C. I found that when pulling fairly hard in 1st that there is a large pause between the shift to 2nd. It seems to be worse the first pull of the day it just drops out and you have to wait for it to catch its breath so to speak. Also I found that traveling over rough ground with very little throttle caused a hesitation and it put us into error codes the first one was Engine Fail Safe = Throttle Actuator next was a misfire on #1 cyld. Engine temp was 194 - Trans temp 189. Outside temp 95F. Cleared the codes and away we went on level smooth ground all is well any suggestions?

Of course the serious question is the oil leak and what has to be done to fix.
