Good morning,

So I have a 94 F-250 with the IDI and standard transmission. This thing has never had any major problems other than a water pump and glow plugs. I am sitting at a little over 300K kilometers and she runs like a dream. Every 3500 miles she gets fresh oil (Delo 400) and that is pretty much it. Nothing has been modified on the engine. The motor is about as stock as they come. The clutch has been upgraded and I wish she had some better gearing for towing but she does the job. I regularly haul 1800lbs bales of alfalfa in the bed and tow car trailers all the time. I have zero plans of ever putting a turbo on her because she just doesn't need it. Any maintenance ideas that I should be looking towards in the future? I know it still has the original oil cooler on it and I have been watching it. The Coolant is checked for SCA's quarterly and has never had a problem with it. What else should I expect out of this old girl? The only thing she really needs at the moment is the seat rebuilt.

I'd check the rest of the drive train oils like the difs and trans transferase make sure they are in good working order

Repack the front wheel bearings and lose that ugly hubcap.
