#835 of 1181 Re: Diesel expected miles [toyhauler] by wpalkowski Apr 09, 2007 (4:02 am)
Replying to: toyhauler (Apr 08, 2007 7:40 pm) Don't know. Was hoping some records came with the truck. The dealer could run the VIN through the system, might be able to come up with repair records from Ford Service Departments.

#836 of 1181 6-liter reliability by keroburner Apr 09, 2007 (9:28 am)
Anyone out there with a 6-liter with 50,000 or so miles and no problems? If so, how is the truck used? Also, are there any public records available as the the percentage of repairs on this engine under the warranty?
#837 of 1181 50.000 by scooter06 Apr 11, 2007 (2:25 am)
I JUST PASSED 50.000 AND ITS HAD NO PROBLEMS EXCEPT I GOT A BAD TANK OF FUEL AND I'VE HAD TOO CLIMB UNDER THE TRUCK ABOUT 10 TIMES TOO DRAIN THE FUEL WATER SEPARATOR. AND IAM NOT CRAZY ABOUT THE MPG WHICH IS ABOUT 15 ON AVERAGE I HAVE A 03 SUPER DUTY 6.0 4X4 SUPERCAB .THE HARDEST THING IT DOES IS PULL A 5X8 TRAILER AT MOST 5000 IBS.ITS BEEN A GOOD TRUCK AND I WONDER IF CHIPPING IT WOULD GIVE ME BETTER MPG OR JUST PROBLEMS I HAVE ENOUGH POWER Replies to this message: wpalkowski (Apr 11, 2007 3:55 am)

Replying to: scooter06 (Apr 11, 2007 2:25 am) You may not wanna mess with a "good thing" I've heard a lot of annecdotal stories about folks chipping their 6.0 diesels and ending up with a whole bunch of problems.
#839 of 1181 DO NOT MOD THE 6.0L POWERSTROKE by mschmal Apr 11, 2007 (10:53 am)
DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT.   Unless you know someone willing to pay your repair bills.   NO mod chip maker has the resources to even begin to write better code for this complicated engine than Ford.   Just what kind of MPG do you expect?   Mark.

#841 of 1181 Tire Size by scboatservice Apr 11, 2007 (3:26 pm)
Replying to: wpalkowski (Apr 09, 2007 4:02 am) Does anyone know the largest tire you can fit on a 06 250 crew FX4 with 18" rims? If so, what brand tire? Seems like the options for the 18" rims are limited, can't seem to find anything larger than a 275/70/18. Thanks
#842 of 1181 Tire Size by scboatservice Apr 11, 2007 (3:31 pm)
Does anyone know the largest All Terrain tire available for a 06 F250 FX4 with 18" rims? Seems like 275/70/18 is all I can find in that cheap factory cont. tire. Is there a larger size that will fit with minimum rub and if so, what brand?? Thanks

#844 of 1181 Re: Engine stalls when warm [donl] by robbo74 Apr 11, 2007 (9:23 pm)
Replying to: donl (Mar 01, 2005 5:28 pm) I have a 2000 Ford F250 7.3 Diesel 140,000 miles. donl what fixed your problem? The exact same thing is happening to me. I drained the filter/water separator, replaced the fuel filter the air cleaner(K/N). It is driving me crazy I have found that if I get onto a highway (40+) or at least not stop and go traffic in less than seven minutes (because this about when the truck will stall) and drive say at least 6 plus miles like this the truck will not stall and will start immediately or upto 1hour after parking it for the rest of the day, it will drive perfect as if there were no problem. If I don't follow my (get on the highway quick method) the truck will die and will not start again untill it cools for at least 40 minutes maybe longer because if you start it to soon it will die again within a minute. I am thinking of changing the fuel pump relay. Any help would be much appreciated.
