I'm just curious..
Im just curious bout a couple of things with the 6.0. I have known alot of people that have had problems with these great engines, and i know alot of people that run the fire out of em with little or no problem, but mine has given me little if no problems (guess what ive been reading it has a bad case of stiction since it makes a 7.3 seem easy to crank in cold weather lol) but i have a little over 300K on my 06 an all ive done outside of putting a master cylinder and a alternator on it, it has always had 5K oil change, yearly coolant flushes (regardless of miles) 25K transmission flushes (all of which done by the dealer), an its fine. Just wondering if i need to look at this thing a whole lot closer?
