    Block Heater ?

    I've search high-and-low for signs of a block-heater cable in all the obvious places - no luck. I believe this to be the first Ford I've ever owned without a block heater. Is there a chance that this vehicle has the provision (hardware) for a block-heater but not the cable ? :dunno...

    water in fuel

    Took your advise, and I do believe we have a fix here ! Pressurize and Drain, Pressurize and Drain (10x) - got a Diesel bath on about the 5th drain, so I figured I might as well keep going. A lot of little "pepper" size black material and "red jell" up until the 8th drain. After that...

    water in fuel

    I've been struggling with the same thing on my 2006. Started at about 7,000 miles (before tuner installed), currently 14,000 miles and continues to this day. Bought HCFM to aid in the draining. Approx. three (3) weeks ago, brought her in to the dealer regarding this issue (had some free...

    Mileage empty/towing 6 liter Fords

    Just dropped trailer off for a few weeks in the North. 31 ft. Pilgrim - 11,000lb loaded. Avg. 11-12 MPG driving as slow as 55MPH, and as fast as 75 MPH (10 - 11 MPG). Wind condition and the frontal area of your trailer (yours sits even higher than mine as a 5th wheel) creates a huge drag...

    red fuel in the 6.0

    I've gotta believe that a certain amount of cross-contamination occurs either at the refinery, or in the transportation of the fuel to the gas station. Recently posted a question about "Water in Fuel" and journeyed beneath to drain her. To my surprise :eek: RED floating around (30%) of the...

    Water in Fuel

    The new HFCM drain plug loosens providing essentially a drain ?:confused: Also, I'm faithful with the Diesel Kleen product. Thinking I may have got a bad shot of fuel at my last fill-up. 7,000 miles on the truck - at what frequency should I expect to drain her if I'm not faithful to a...

    1st Diesel

    Thanks for the compliment on the truck. Best I can recall is that the A-Plan price was somewhere around $43,000. I think the chrome package may have clouded by judgement on a more reasonable payment. Noticed the 4.5" lift kit - any suggestions on how to wash the windows on these monsters (in...

    1st Diesel

    Recently aquired my 2006 F350 with 6.0L Diesel - 5spd Auto - 3.73 - rated for 12,000lb (approx). Big fan of the diesel having owned various ford trucks since high-school days starting with a Ranger and working my way up to the F350. Just passed 5,000 miles (5 months of ownership)...
