Great Diesel Article For Newbie's

Great diesel article especially for 1st time diesel owners like me. Includes specific discussion regarding 6.0, mods. etc.

Newbies might also want to read the 6.0L Bible at http://www.backglass.org/duncan/ps60_manual/, It took me a while to get through it but it is great stuff.

Have noticed that some links are automatically modified by the forum software...
if it does this to me I will take the www. off the front (everyone knows that still works if you cut and paste it into your browser url)...

and I've STILL never got an inline pic to work
but posting inline pics is not nice to the dial up members anyway

If the links don't work you can see the web address in the posted link. Just go to it and look @ July 2004 and August 2004 for parts 1 & 2. Listed in the Finesse section.

Part 1 in particular is a really good read.

here's a little hand :
highlight and copy this next line into the url of your browser and delete the space after the www.:
www. oramagazine.com/archive/2004/july2004/TECH/tech04/JULY04_TECH04_01.asp




but can't see the August issue - guess you have to be a member ?!?!

Thanks JD...FYI: I just got the Aug issue in the mail yesterday. Not a member of anything and never bought anything from 4 Wheel Parts...just started getting it after a bought my previous 4x4. I wonder how they got my info?

Guess my Ford dealer for that truck makes a little on the side selling names huh?
