You see one every now and then on Ebay. They seem to go for
the price of a small load of cash.


BTW I am all for an EPA Delete.

What a waste of money.
People want clean running vehicles anyways, let manufacturers figure it out on their own without intervention.
That can't be done soon enough. How about CARB also. (California Air Resources Board.)

DEF is nothing but watered down, dyed cow ****. Literally, when the system has a UREA sensor. And for what, a few HCs? BAH! Of course injecting DEF into the exhaust stream generates NOx just to make life even better.

The EPA is like the IRS. They want results NOW, but don't care to work with others to make them happen.
What year Ford Diesel is not required to run DEF ?
I want to replace my truck. I have a 95 I am very seriously thinking of buying a newer Super Duty, instead of rebuilding my truck. I was going to put a motor and trans and repaint it, then some scumbag from Baja Ca. backed into the right rear side of my truck. (it had no dents or dings in it before a week ago today)

up to and including 2010 model year no def fluid , 2011-2015 model year def fluid required, unless you delete the emissions equipment.

Anything 2008 or newer has the exhaust filter though, which on it's own without DEF, is actually worse.

The 1999 - 2003 7.3 trucks had no emissions junk.
The 2003-2007 6.0 trucks had EGR.
The 2008-2010 6.4 trucks had EGR, and DPF, and are common rail.
The 2011+ trucks have EGR, DPF, and urea injection.
