I bet that D.P.F just love's all that idle time .
I idle the shit out of my cars all winterwhy get in a cold car when you can not??
I doubt it still has emission equipment, but if it does, I bet that shit is fried. All I know about the truck is it's post 6.0 Power Stroke, sometimes runs, it's known to breakdown, not if but when, and it was high mileage when he bought it 6-7 years ago. I think he told me it had 350K when he got it. As often as it runs, it probably has 352K on it now, but hundreds of additional hours.
Really? I have a little experience with a 6.0 PS, which everyone was hating on back then, but nothing newer. I remember people always hating on the 6.0 saying how weak and bad it was, but the F550 I drove around never had any real issues, it was just a picky bitch with the fuel system. I though the next engine was suppose to have fix all of the perceived short comings of the 6.0. My neighbor's truck is whatever replace the 6.0 PS, and I can tell you one thing, it's always broken. I remember last year he spent something like $8K on fixing it, got the truck back and the next day he broke down in the middle of a very busy 4-way intersection. I was home when the roll back dropped it off, again.
While I type this his truck has been MIA for the last 2-3 months. I assumed he wised up and sold or scraped it, but when I asked his kid about it last week, she said it's in the shop.
I swear I didn't tell it to do that.
I can't read Hebrew (assuming) but what the hell is so bad about "hush yo mouf"? Hell, I'm pretty sure I heard someone say that a few days ago, and they might have been talking to me.
Do you know what kind of deep emotional damage that kind of repair bill would inflict on me? I don't think I'd ever recover.
If your emotionally damaged with an engine R&R , your using the wrong engine ....
