Hello from Arizona

Just found the board so I thought I'd sign up.
My Ford is a '99 F250 w/ a 7.3 PS Turbo Diesel. I just rolled over 309,000 miles and she is still pulling strong, and still the best dang truck I've ever owned.
No major mods; Superchip, Firestone bags, and that's it. I've always wanted an exhaust for it, but I just haven't gotten around to it.
Anyway, take it easy everyone, I'll see you around the forum.

Hello from Ohio

I've been poking around here for a while, just never registered. I've had 2 superduties before, both with V10's. Really loved the V10. I rolled my last one in February (damned ohio winters), and I'm going to pick up another today-a '99 4x4 supercab with a 7.3 Powerstroke. It will be my first diesel, so I'll have a lot to learn. Plan on trying my hand at biodiesel this summer.

Chris

That 6.8 is an awesome engine, ain't it? Heard a lot of good things about the 7.3. Well, it's a Ford. What could go wrong?

Which is Better?

As you can see, I'm new on here. But thats beside the point.

I was wondering how many of you on here think that the 5.4 330 v-8 is better than the old 5.8 351(windsor, cleveland, modified) series engine, and vice versa. I like both body styles the engines are found on, and personally like the 5.4 better. But I was just curious.

Thanks

Hello everyone, I love diesels, especially my '99 7.3l! I have found so much info in these threads to satisfy my curiosities. With my f250 turning over 500000km(almost),there may be a few questions I will be asking soon, hopefully not! This is such a great site!!!

Hi hoffbrew, I am new here too so watch me stumble. I had that problem once. I over oiled the aftermarket air filter, it softened the connector hose and blew off. So i picked up a new connector hose and cleaned the oil residue off the innercooler pipe. That solved my problem. I was also told not to completely crush the spring on the hose clamp when I tightened them. Don't know if I helped you any. Good luck and good times. P.S I went back to the factory air filter.

Hey everybody. I just bought my first NBS Ford after owning 15-20 OBS Fords. It's a 99 F250 SD 4x4 Lariat V10 and it turned 45k original miles the other day. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions. Here's a link to pictures of some of my old Ford trucks: Fords - a set on Flickr
