I am trying to find a good techician that is experienced with these trucks. I have a 99.5. I think it is making some strange sounds but would like someone that is far more experienced than I to look at/listen to it. Fuel mileage hasn't changed, but it seems to have a tapping sound it didn't have in the summer. Truck only has 63K on it. I just don't want it to turn into something worse, if it is anything. I hate to take it to the dedalership and I know there are a lot of guys here that are very experienced with these trucks. I live near Frederick in Mount Airy. Thanks in advance, Tom

This is one of those deals where I need someone to actually hear the truck running. I just want to make sure I'm not imagining things. Someone else I talked to where I work said the same thing about Hagerstown Ford and Frederick Ford. Thanks, Tom

I'll have to find a different dealer to take it to. I will not go back to Century Ford. They wanted to charge me $97.00 when I took imy truck in for the CPS recall because I wrote a note on the night deposit slip verifying that it was shutting off. They took it upon themselves to run a diagnostic check on it. Fortunately for future customers they got rid of that service writer. I also did not get charged.

Thanks, I was wondering if he did side work, but they pi%^ed me off so bad I swore I would never go back again and never recommend them to anyone. Thanks, Joe

Found out yesterday that Seth doesn't do side work. I talked to him. Crap!!
Looks like I am going to give them at least enough money to check out the truck and tell me what's possibly wrong. Then maybe I will try and fix it myself. He told me injectors are like $300.00 each there!! Now I remember why they call them STEALERSHIPS. No offense to anyone that works at one, I used to and we all have to make a living. Just not all off ME!!!
This is the greatest Ford truck sight going and as soon as $$$ permits I will become a supporter.

You really should pop in to the 7.3 forum. Today is the first day I've looked in the MD forum but have had my PSD 7.3 for 2.5years+ and had an 88 7.3 for a few months before that. I'm occasionally out near Frederick and would be glad to give you a hand if you still need it. It's been 2 months since your last post though, so I have to ask, do you still need help?
Yes I actually did find someone to look at it and there wasn't really anything wrong. It's just starting to get a little more "loose" as it gets more miles on it. Has a few more rattles than before. Thanks for the offer though.
Tom
