Newbie Question
hey everyone, I'm a nebie and i don't know *****...lol. anyway I bought a 05 powerstroke dually with a hiding goose neck hitch (flips upside down). Can I still install a regular 5th wheel hitch? Also I've been told that all powerstrokes run rough untill they warm up, mine runs really rough, is this normal or do I have a problem somewhere. Thanks for any help or advice you can offer.

Welcome to the site!
I've got an 03 with the 6.0....she starts right up with no roughness/no smoke.
Tell us a little more about your truck...miles, mods etc and that will help with your answers.
If you just bought the truck, I'd suggest running an OASIS report to see what kinds (if any) dealer warranty work has been done to the truck.

If you have the B&W turnover ball system you can purchase a fifth wheel hitch that fits the same hole as the ball. Or you could opt for the gooseneck adapter. Do a search for B&W turnover ball for their products.

Down in the 6.0 forum you will usually find a few members who will get you an Oasis report on your vehicle.
A 6.0 is a reliable engine and should not run rough when started cold. Are there any other symptoms besides running rough?
