When were the last good 7.3Ls made? When did Ford start adding computer crap that made these Cretaceous-age engines too specialized for their own good?
In a recent conversation with an actual mechanic, he said the 6.0s were nightmares, but the 6.4 was a close second. Do y'all agree?
I assume the point of a smaller engine is more power for better fuel milage?
Do you comparative anatomists out there think that the 6.0s (when they work) and 6.4s deliver a total product that's as good as, or better than a 7.3?
Thanks for your input!
I am curious about the engines available and their MPG.
And any known mechanical issues that are common to those years.
I have a 6000 lb boat that I would be pulling.
I would appreciate any input.
Body still looked like it was fresh off the showroom floor. Interior was also just great.
-No more blown head gaskets, no more leaking inter-coolers, no more replacing the computer module, no more differential problems., no more shifting problems - Since it seemed the dealer had it more often than I did, I sold it and cured all my problems.
thanks in advance...
Your best bet is a good Electrolyser. It will clean the pistons, the lifters and improve the mpg big time.

HELP!?!!
I have a 1999 Ford F-250 which will not start. The starter makes no noise when I turn on the ignition. I tried jumpstarting with another vehicle and same result. I checked the fuses related to the starter or ignition and they are either not populated or do not appear to be be blown. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Tahnks.
I like shell rotella 15/40 change every 3500 with new (motorcraft filter ONLY)

go to the maint. link at the top of the screen, select your year and make. should help you.
Though I also have a 2003 Chevy silverado duramax diesel and the exhaust is completely different, it smells clean like chlorinated water.
So now that I have ranted about these issues, my question is Does anyone know of any agency we can contact to get these problems resolved? I think maybe Ford should fix the problems without charging us.
