6.9

Hi All;

I'm looking at a 1985 E-350 with a 6.9L 180,000mi runs good has good records
as I don't know about Diesels 1st one, was there any flaws in this engine?

I have been told that there is no problem with the mileage with good records?

what do you think about the 6.9???

Thanks Roy

Generally is a pretty good engine if taken care of, reliable and fairly efficient. Not too bad to work on either.
