BD's BrakeLoc connects to the EBPV control wire, turning the factory valve into an electronically-controlled exhaust brake. Includes the BD AutoLoc to maintain lock-up when the exhaust brake is activated ensuring that 100% of the retarding force is being transferred in 3rd and 4th gears. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCost effective solution of engine retarding for towing with the automatic transmission on the Ford PowerStrokes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommands the Exhaust Back Pressure (EBP) valve to activate as well as keeping the lock-up clutch of the torque converter to stay engaged to allow up to 100% of the retarding force to be transferred while in 3rd and 4th gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransmission oil temperatures will remain low because of little or no slippage occurring in the converter in these gears\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor more efficient retarding use or medium to heavy loads use BD Exhaust Brake 2033143, 2023144, 1037143 or 1027144\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BD Diesel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47847836516501,"sku":"BKJX-1030750","price":564.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/0585\/3077\/files\/1030750_1024px.jpg?v=1787848882","url":"https:\/\/dieselproof.com\/products\/bd-diesel-brakeloc-1995-2003-ford-7-3l-automatic-trans","provider":"Diesel Proof","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
