    WTS 1991 F-350 Crew Cab SRW 7.3 ZF-5 $3500 OBRO [SW Houston, TX]

    This turned out to be more of a project than I can deal with right now. The truck starts, runs, and drives, and is pretty solid, with very little rust, strong motor and good transmission. The original 4L10 rear failed, so I installed a 3.55 - original 4.10 is included if you want it but needs...

    1989 Diesel Ford F-350 4x4 crewcab longbed in San Diego

    Let's start with what's wrong with it; there is coolant in the oil. It started off pretty slightly, and so I rebuilt the heat exchanger. The problem got worse, so I thought maybe it was a head gasket. Now I've had a mechanic look at it, and he's measuring over 25 PSI in the coolant system...

Not sure if i'd change anything for the operation of the engine, other than of course having to have that feature as manual choice then...
