fuel?

I do have a question, I looked under the hood and the 2007 has a completely different turbo setup than my 2003. Did they in fact change the turbo setup...I never knew that.

Anyhow, so far so good...I will get some pics up later ('cause I am sure none of you have seen a stock F250...lol)

PICS! We want pics! But not only of the turbo. and your busted up window too....

I for one am curious about the emissions system(s).

If you wouldn't mind crawling underneath- is there an injector or fuel line going to the catalytic converter? How about sensors? Now that the truck is clean best time for pics.

Now for the BIG money question- what if any delivery procedure or edumacation did they give you on the new model fuel requirements?

What are you doing for fuel?

Hello my friend, sorry for the confusion, however, this is Build One of the 2007's, I think you are referring to the Build Two with the 6.4 liter. As far as fuel, a lot of the stations around me have changed over to the new ULSD so that would not be an issue.

@ everyone:

Thank you for the comments...I am really enjoying the new rig and looking forward to no issues.

As promised here are some pics of the vehicle...of course it is all stock, but we have not decided what we will be doing with it.

Thanks again!

model year 2007 is Tier II emissions. It's a whole different animal than the 06's.

Poke around the engine for CCV and EGR valves. they will be different than the 06's.

The catalytic convered will be differnt too.

Is the turbo a VT275?

Ok Dennis, bare with me my friend. What were you wanting me to look at...I am by far that educated on these motors. I put a couple shots of the engine compartment at the link I listed above...Let me go shoot a pic of the cat for you.

Alright I poked around underneath the vehicle...cat appears to be the same, however, I am seeing a lot of different items under the hood than what I saw in my 2003. There also seems to be an odd piece on the drive shaft, maybe some sort of ballancer?

Build date of the vehicle is Aug 06
