Being fat sucks
I set out looking for a V2500 Suburban. Instead I found a 94 Crew Cab fatback 2wd Ford with a 7.3 IDI Turbo (Vin "K"). The asking price is $4000 but I bet they would take $3000.
Not looking for opinions or to start that whole Ford vs Chevy argument. I don't want to know about E4OD problems. Just want the down and dirty on a 7.3L IDI turbo.
This truck has 211,XXX miles of pulling a 30' 5th Wheel. What should I expect? Are the injectors ready to fail? Are there Lift Pump problems to be aware of? What is the cavitation problem? Gasket problems? Anything else? Basically I want to know what parts and tools to take for the drive from Dallas back to Michigan. This is an all stock engine, no HP mods.
The other one that interested me is a 92 crewcab fatback with a 460 and a gearvendors........ It has more miles but the GV is worth the asking price (because the seller doesn't know what it is) and I know what to expect from a high mileage 460.
