My estimated delivery date is today - just moved into my new home, so I don't know when FedEx gets here...

The motor in my old 89 diesel was out of a Uhaul F350, a 91 to be exact and it was NOT governed at 2800.

Well what's the opinions on the Bosch GP's? I haven't got mine yet but I ordered 2 sets.:rolleyes: Should I chance running them or throw them on Ebay and spend the $$ on some Motorcraft ones?:dunno

i ordered two sets too. I'm not afraid to run whatever uhaul was using. I was around them many years ago as we rented them out through our store. I can't imagine a company using a part in their rental vehicles that would give problems. these things needed to be reliable. I do remember the first time i saw pink coolant in them i was like :confused:

The only experience I have with U-haul trucks is I rented one to help my brother move. It was a F350 IDI box truck. It was a dog. It had a hard time doing 55mph empty!:eek: It's the truck that made me afraid to buy an IDI powered Ford. Luckily I got over that.:DLOL

Well I guess I'll run them and see what happens. Can't be any worse then my non functioning ones now.:dunno

It may have been that they adjusted the throttle so it couldn't go WFO. That's what I'll hope for with mine!

Anything is possible. I didn't order an IP ( didn't have the cash LOL ) . So I just need to worry about the GP's being crap!:D

Did the F-Super Duties have a higher rev limit? The day I drove mine home, before I knew any better, it had no problem revving to 4,000 rpm. :eek:

Maybe the F-Super Duties had a higher rev limit due to the 5.13 gears?:dunno
