ok we got our 03 f350 back about 2 weeks ago i drove it home in the snow and ice it didnt spin at all did pretty good. We took it to Kansas city last week to get a post hole digger it rained and was slick all the was there running the defroster all the was it got about 17 mpg i havent had a chance to hook up and haul nothing yet to see how it pulls but it runs good and the mechanic said it is in really good condition for having 310,000 miles on it. Thanks for the help on figuring out wat was wrong with it. We got less than 15,000 in it. Is that good or bad? Ill post pics in my gallary when it stops snowing Thanks Justin

 

310,000 miles???!?!?!?!?!! wow

is this the orig. engine? how does it run?

 

yes this is the original engine. it runs really good. the guy that worked on it said he works on ones with 500,000-600,000 on them and they still run good the key is to keep the oil changed since the injectors are open by oil pressure.
