New From FL
Hi all I’ve been reading through these boards the last few years and saw a ton of useful information from personal feedback to technical knowledge. Just wanted to come on board and share some of mine to hopefully help someone else out like yall have helped me.
My background is I’m coming from a ‘01 ccsb F350 psd with ~400k miles to a ‘24 cclb psd. I was a tech for a few years before I took a different life path. So I’ve done everything from maintenance to turbo pedestals on the 7.3. The 6.7 is new territory for me.
Haven’t always been a Ford guy but the 7.3 earned my loyalty. 2 quick stories for ya.. I had an idler pulley pop off the 7.3 on a highway trip and only realized it on the return trip because a lack of power. The belt had gone several hundred miles riding on the bearing for the pulley (probably would’ve got me home too but I was fortunate enough to have taken an exit with an Autozone right there). And 2, with a bad battery and a bad alternator, the 7.3 never failed to start and get me to where I needed to go. Needless to say I was blown away at that workhorse so I’ll stick w Ford.
Cheers
