    2002 E-350 EGR?

    I searched "EGR" and did not see an answer so here goes. Does a 7.3 powerstroke from 2002 have an EGR? I need to know because I'm considering spending a ton of money on some Hot Shots Secrete Black Diamond oil and an oil bypass filter to extend the oil change intervals on my service truck. Thank...

    Oil additive for injector lubrication?

    I have a local diesel mechanic telling me to only use Motocraft oil in my 2002 E350 with a 7.3 powerstroke because most oils do not lubricate the injectors properly. Motorcraft oil is around $35 a gallon around here and has the Ford oil rating WSS-M2C171-F1. I looked at Rotella and even the...

    Need new fuel pickup tubes

    I've got a 1988 F-350 7.3 IDI with a dual rear end and two fuel tanks. I know I need both fuel pickup tubes A.K.A. "The showerheads" but I'm not having much luck in finding ones to fit my truck. I see them listed for 1992 and up ect. but none for the 88. Anyone else had luck finding these parts?

    1986 F-150 conversion thoughts

    I have a 1986 F-150 with a 351 Windsor and a three speed auto and a low speed rear end, an old farm truck apparently.

    RPM limit

    've looked around and haven't seen any posts about the rpm limits of the 7.3 IDI. The tach caution line is set at 3400 but that seems extremely high to me. I had my 88 F-350 5 speed on the highway yesterday and got up to 65 mph with the tach reading 2400 ish but that engine sounded like it was...

    Brand new to the fourm...Have a question

    So I'm thinking of buying an older Ford F-350 with a 7.3 IDI engine in it with 138,000 miles.
