BD Diesel 1030755 BrakeLoc - 1994-2003 Ford 7.3L Manual Trans

Make the Most of Your Power Stroke's exhaust backpressure valve! BD's BrakeLoc connects to the EBPV control wire, turning the factory valve into an electronically-controlled exhaust brake. Note that, because the EBPV is activated hydraulically, there is typically a 2-3 second delay between the time the valve is actuated and engine retarding occurs. While the BrakeLoc is an economical alternative to an exhaust brake, it is NOT intended as a substitute. For quicker, more effective braking, we recommend a BD exhaust brake system, which utilizes our Variable Orifice Technology, and won't stick like the stock EPB valve can.Cost effective solution of engine retarding for towing with the Ford PowerStroke by utilizing the OEM Exhaust Back Pressure (EBP) valve; Commands the EBP valve to activate to act as an engine brake; For more efficient retarding use or medium to heavy loads use BD Exhaust Brake 2033143, 2023144, 1037143 or 1027144; Our goal is to be an innovative company and a world class manufacturer that distributes products Worldwide for North American Diesel vehicles.; Our goal is to be an innovative company and a world class manufacturer that distributes products Worldwide for North American Diesel vehicles.
