first post here, but have been browsing for a while.

im planning on picking up a SD sometime with the PSD and dont know which one is going to be the most reliable to me. i plan on either setting up a two tank system to run WVO or possibly just run biodiesel in it, so keep that in mind.

 

JMO- i'd find a 2000 to a 2003 model, 7.3L

 

I'm partial to 2000's and early 2001's with forged steel connecting rods. Powdered metal rods give me the creeps in a diesel.

06 or 07 6.0 period no questions asked.

 

Personally i would have to say any 7.3 Powerstroke. From 95 all the to 2003, they were a very solid and reliable motor.

 

late model 7.3 2000-2003 or the late model 6.0 2006-2007... Or wait for the later model 6.4 in a couple of years... I love my 2006...

 

I am in total agreement with bowtiehtr '07 or'07

 

thanks for the input guys, do these handle WVO pretty well or shoud i stick with bio

 

stick with bio but remember Ford only certifies B5 any higher & you could have warranty issues.

 

The year you own...any year is a good year HAHAHAH...as long as you're 'strokin'

1997. Disscussion over.

 

01, 4r100 auto, 2wd, 3:73s it goes on forever. I want mine back I just sold. I like my '05, but man I loved that '01. All 186,000 miles of it.

2008....so long Heui

 

If you want to run B100 it's safer to limit your purchases to the 7.3 and earlier trucks from what I have heard.

 

oopp's sorry I guess I did'nt read it very well, Kwik is correct if you plan on running B-100 the pre 2003 7.3 liter is the way to go, 2000 or 2001 have what I belive to be the strongest bottom ends (wich is very important when running a potentialy higher energy content than petrol based fuel) I kmow many people are running these trucks on straight Bio & having excellent results. Just remember filtration, filtration & more filtration!
