New here, after looking through some threads looks like a pretty good family, with alot of knowledge, I'm hoping to contribute and gain some of it.

Hello all! I'm new to the forum. I'm currently looking at a couple of 2008 F450 King Ranch Super Dutys. They all seem to have 4:88 gears so fuel mileage will not be good. Also better than half my driving will be empty. I would like your opinion on Kelderman, Link, and Talon air ride systems. Also, what do you all think of the Spartan tuner used with a DPF delete pipe?

 

New here. I just picked up a 2009 F250 xlt super cab with 2000 miles on it. I plan on using it to tow my race car and boat, and to plow my driveway. I am a dodge guy and this is the first Ford I have ever owned.

 

I'm new to the sight, well I have been looking for a couple of months. I like what I see. A lot of friendly help. Nothing like being in FORD COUNTRY! I guess I need to take some pics of my trucks. Happy to find this sight.

 

I just joined after lurking for a few days.
I took the plunge yesterday and traded my Harley for an 01 F-250 Super Duty 7.3L. First diesel for me. I used to be a technician but didn't do diesels.
Already have a no start issue and I'm trying to figure it out. Wouldn't start today until it had been plugged in for 4 hours, and it was 70 degrees or so here in Phoenix! Any ideas? I've been searching for hours already. I don't think the glow plugs are working, but haven't been able to test anything yet.
I love the truck so far other than the big issue, but I don't mind fixing the problems to have a great truck!

Thanks all and Howdy!

12" lift, 40" tires, 20" wheels, Banks strait pipe exaust, Banks 6-Gun, Airraid Intake. Recon Headlights, HID lows and highs, Recon Big Rig running lights.

New from NJ. Im here to help out a friend. He has a 2006 Harley Edition F-350 Crew Cab with a 6.0 Powerstroke. Ill be asking you guys for some help right off the bat!

 

Hey all,
New guy from NJ. I drive an 02 F250. Bought the truck about 3 years ago. Don't know all to much about tech stuff but it seems like with the help from the site I should learn everything I need or want to know.
Here's a pic of my truck.

 

This is a great site with loads of information. I'm actively looking for my first SD Diesel and will be test driving a 2001 F350 Crew S/B this afternoon. It has 138K on the engine but from what I'm seeing here that is not all bad for a 7.3 engine that's been well maintained.

 

New to the forum..but been lurking around for a while....now on my 3rd F-series with a diesel....a 1986 6.9L and and a 1995 7.3L powerstroke and now a 2002 7.3L Powerstroke....Luv me some oilburners....lots of helpful info on here!!!! I put over 480,000 miles on the 6.9L!!!!! and now have 275,000 on my '02 7.3L Powerstroke; hope to double that too

 

i'll second almost everything on this page, it's a GREAT forum... mine's a 99.5 F250 PSD e/c s/b auto, 117K when i bought it back in october (had several fords before, but this is the first diesel - FINALLY) - had to replace some rusty stuff so far, the most painful being an OIL PAN... anyway, now, just workin' on my 25th post so i can create my signature

 

Hi everyone. I am new to this forum and I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jake and I live in Washington state. I am just finishing up m masters degree in mechanical engineering and I live ford cars and trucks. I have been reading threads from this site for several years and I want to thank all of you for the support and knowledge this forum has given me. I own a 1988 F250 diesel with the 5 spd manual. I have many modificaions as it rides 10" above stock on 38" BFG km2s. Some cool features are inboard air with 12 gallon tank, arb air lockers front and rear, and enough tools to rebuild the entire rig in the field among other various lights and gadgets. I will try to post some pics here. Thanks and I am looking forward to contribute to this forum!

 

2003 F350 Dually 4x4 Crew Diesel @ 143,XXX miles. The jury is still out on this one considering I've got low oil pressure at start-up issues after only 300 miles since purchase...

Consider me a sponge here to soak up everybody's knowledge and experience!

 

Do you have a 7.3 or 6.0, when you say low oil pressure are you talking about engine lubrication system or the high pressure oil system. (for the injectors ) also what type of oil is in the engine 15 w 40 dino or 5 w 40 synthetic ? Have you checked the oil pressure with an external gauge or OEM ( on dash unit )
