I am an owner of a 1995 short school bus Ford E-350 Powerstroke 7.3L diesel.
I am experiencing some concern over how she is running lately.
She is conking out when I slow down or idle in Reverse. I live in a warm climate in southern, CA so it is not an issue with cold temperature. I am also experiencing delay or choppy acceleration/pick up while driving.
I just had a bunch of work put into her which is throwing me off a bit. I flushed out the radiator and changed the fluid, changed the oil/filter, changed the air filters. What else can I do to get her running smoothly?
What Mark said. I had this issue when I first got my truck and he diagnosed the same thing. I had to add about 5 quarts and it never did it again. I have since had the trans rebuilt by John Wood and it is bad aZZ now.
