Just from previous posts, I'm thinking if he does use those services, it is not working for him. In all fairness, he's not been here that long, so a big improvement may be noticed as his post count increases.

Anyway, lets not throw the 7.3 on the iron pile yet. Don't forget all the years that the 6.2 made us happy! [emoticon]

Ha..I remember our conversation, about Ford giving up their vested interest in Cummins, and what may have been, if they would have stayed connected, using the Cummins engine themselves.

Your truck, likely would have the best mirrors, best IBC, and the great Cummins engine.[emoticon]

I'm guessing a disposable "sock" of an existing member who feels compelled to post stupid/offensive stuff but hopes to dodge the consequences. Wonder who...?

Just trying to be helpful and post a link to something that would be beneficial to a great number of the geezers on these boards.

Looks like the same thing they had going on in there V10's. we had them at work and went through engins like crazy in the f550's we had. later we found out because they were never shut off and spent a good 15 hours a day idleing every day they wern't getting enough oil at idle and killing cams.

in the video he has a cube van which if it is a delivery truck will spend large amounts of time idleing ... who knows..


New Hemi engines have the same issue!
