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?

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

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

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.

F 250 diesel mileage by ohana1

I have a 05 F250 diesel. The inter cooler went out and since it was replaced it has been getting bad fuel economy. I have had it back to the dealer and they stated that there is nothing wrong. I also can't use my Diablo Predator any longer due to the fact that the truck, even in its lowest setting, bucks and just generally runs bad. I called Diablo and they indicated to me that they had heard of an update for the injectors. When I called ford, they had not. HELP PLEASE

HI, MY HUSBAND JUST PURCHASED AND 08 F-250 SUPERDUTY AND IS GETTING TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE(APPROX 9-10) HE IS PULLING A TINY 6 X 12 TRAILER. WE JUST TRADED IN A 04 F-250 SUPERDUTY DUE TO REPEATED EGR PROBLEM. BUT HE WAS PULLING A 6X24 BEFORE AND GOT AN AVERAGE OF 12-14 MPG. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE HAS THIS TRUCK OR ANY IDEAS OF WHY SUCH TERRIBLE MILEAGE?
 
THANKS

First of all the truck is brand new and MPG will get better, but it will take time. Second of all, your husband should not be towing anything until at least 500 miles are on the truck. I say 1000 miles. The truck has to break in. The truck will probably get 15-18 MPG. That is the going rate for this beast. Congrats
