    '97 PSD Fuel mileage?

    '97 PSD Fuel mileage? added a new issue I've had this truck for almost a month and have checked the mileage three times, 13 mpg ,city, every time. It is an F350 dually, 7.3, E4OD, 4.10 gears. It doesn't have any leaks and the valley is dry. Shouldn't it get better mileage than this?

    I know that everyone says there were no factory F250 daullies. I'm just trying to figure out what this is. I talked to the original owner of this truck and he says he bought it new as a dually.

    Glow plug relay

    I'm working on my neighbors '92 F250 7.3 IDI. As I understand it, the white wire at the relay supplies ground to activate the relay, is this correct? The glow plugs haven't been working on this truck since he bought it. I checked for voltages at the relay and got 12v where the big yellow wires...

    silicate free anti freeze

    I'm a tech at a Nissan dealer and I need to service the cooling system on my F250. The factory Nissan long life coolant is green coolant that is "silicate free". Will that be good for my truck with the Fleetguard dca4?

    Fuel Filter micron ratings

    I just had my IP rebuilt and the guy that rebuilt it asked me to use a fuel filter with a micron rating of atleast 10, but preferrably 6. I've been reading what I can find on different manufacturers filters and just don't find many that list the micron ratings. The WIX/NAPA 3617 that I'm running...

    Engine LOUD, Black smoke, and low power

    I had the injector pump rebuilt two weeks ago and everything has been great, until today. I started it today and it's louder than hell! I took off down the road and black smoke was rolling out of the exhaust, and it seemed low on power. What the heck? (91 F250 7.3 IDI, E4od, 150k)
