My 2005 6.0 is getting fuel in coolant and has misfire code on #7, truck has 190000 miles. Question new ford heads/with bolts or rebuilt heads with studs, also replace just #7 injector or all injectors. Truck runs bad when first started and I am using the bullydog programmer and do some towing.

Fuel in coolant means a cracked head/injector sleeve so rebuilding the head is not possible. Studs absolutely. I would replace all the injectors at 190K, especially if they haven't been done before.

thanks, i should have specified the ford head kit that comes with gaskets, bolts,stand pipe or reman. heads. How are reman. injectors from sources like e-bay vs the ones ford sells.

Im with Bud those Bulley Dog tunners are probably hands down the worst tunner for your Torque Shift tranny in your truck

But at least you got a code for #7 cylinder so you know that you need to replace the passenger side head at the minimum
