Hi everyone:
Newbie here, and I like these forums. I am looking to buy a 1987 Ford F-250 6.9L Turbo Diesel Centurion. The guy tells me it is hard starting, and then dies about 1 hour after it gets up and running. Sure enough, I took it for a test drive and it did just as he said. It drives along OK, and then after an hour it starts to sputter and then dies. I mean like turning off the key.
What the heck? Any ideas? How could fuel delivery (my only guess) stop after an hour? Maybe not a bargain at 1200 bucks?
Thanks for any input. Appreciate it.
