Reached the delta
After 13 years and 167,000 miles I have finally reached the delta and can say I'm not going to like the lightening of the wallet. Coolant is running 196 and oil is 212. Just flushed added new coolant and new Ford thermostat. Deltas were running around 13 before flush and coolant change.
Oil cooler here I come. With it being an 03 what else should be looked at while apart?

Clean your egr valve up and ait2 sensor and intake it's really not to bad of a job. Clean your turbo up while it's off. Make sure to pull the block plugs out if they aren't too rusted to flush crud out of there too check your ipr and icp sensor plugs for oil if there is oil they need replaced. Check the opt screen as well

No just about 20 gallons of distilled water only draining out of the radiator. I did not pull block plugs.

I would do a Restore flush and then a VC9 flush before I changed the oil cooler. Do your research before you replace the oil cooler so you only do it one time.
