Well I found this on craigslist friday night and when to look at it saturday. I brough it home today.

It is a 96 F250 with 126,700 miles on it. Has some problems but run sweet and drives nice. + I only paid 3,800 for it.
7.3 diesel
jasper tranny
newer front tires

Need's
Windsheild
seat cover
Good cleaning
little body work on driver side









Now my questions

The water in fuel light is on. The ower told me it has been on for a while but has not had a problem with it. Any ideas?

Also what do u guys use to clean your cabs with? It reallly dirty!

Please don't tell me I paid way to much for it. I think because of the low miles it over rides the bads in it.

 

Congrats on the truck. I think that is a fair price for the truck you got. As for the water in fuel light, im sure you can search it and come up with your answer. If the cab is real bad. grab some Simple green, the concentrated stuff it is real bad. Good luck, and congrats again on the new rig. What are your future plans for it?

 

Mod it to pull a trailer. Maybe a plow. Nothing till it gets clean up and and on the road and my F150 is sold beacuse I'm broke!

 

i had a water light on. had to drain the fuel bowl once a day for about a month to keep it off.

 

Dude 3,800 dollars low miles and a rebuilt tranny ,,,,that was a major score Congrats

 

You done good for a 4x4 with all them goodies!! Looks like a new alternator too.

 

Drain the fuel bowl and change the fuel filter. This should take care of that light.

Again, very nice truck. Lots of potential. Welcome to our forum.

 

blue majic leather cleaner it works great i own a landscaping com. and mine gets real nasty. could be water sensor bad but i would change the filter drain the fuel and clean it out and refill with new fuel. nice truck looks like mine. i wish mine was 4x4

 

Thanks guys. Now if my F150 could find a new home I would have this on the road, but parents will not let me have both trucks on the road. I will be working on it thursday night.

 

pull the seat out pull the carpet and give it a good cleaning, but most of all a good rinsing as the ph level in any soap residue will attract dirt. than let it dry completely before putting it back in, while out go to town cleaning all the nooks and crannies with any good cleaner ie 409

 

I'm going to be looking for captins chairs for it. I was going to put it into the grarge when it came home but the lader rack doesn't fit throw the grage door. Have to take it off.

 

Good deal on that truck! Good luck!

 

So I found out today that I still have a year warrenty on my tranny kinda cool.

 

That is great news.

 

Nice truck! I wish I could find a deal like that.
