Aha! That is what the washer is for! I added DEF last week at 2500 miles and it took almost 2.5 gallons. It leaked a little, but only on the pavement. The directions on the container are a bit vague but I should have figured it out. Thanks!

The O'Reilly 2.5 gallon pack for $10 and change has a filler spout included. FYI

I second the request for ally pics. Is it a 2002 or a 2003?

Good information. I'm very glad I found this forum and the 6.7 sub forum specifically. I am a two day owner of a 6.7 and trying to absorb all I can. The engine is more than I expected, but I am just amazed of what this truck can do both work wise and entertainment wise. That Sync system is something else.

Very nice!!!!! It even has the port-a-potty option.

That is one fine floater for sure and is one of the top boats as far as smooth ride. I couldn't afford an Ally so I settled for a Bullet.

It is actually the same engine that is on Champ's Ally, just a few years older. Loaded to fish with two people, my Bullet will run high 80's while still getting close to 5 MPG.

My boat is not nearly as fast as the Allison or the Bullet, but it gets the job done. I like to think the Ranger is the F250 of the bass boat world.

But back on topic, what is the shelf life of the DEF? My dealer gave me a 2.5 gallon jug with the spout and I was thinking of keeping it in the tool box in case of an emergency.
