    Which Bio equipment to buy?

    Don't forget you have to fill out road tax forms at the end of the year, most people who run bio diesel don't do that.

    Want a Duramax, Need guidence

    Lack of coolant maintenance and design?? I always thought it was improperly designed thermostat and low idle speed over heating coolant in the heads, then when you got out and went, cooler coolant rushed through them and they warped.

    Big 6.5 Test

    I got one for ya, its really beat to shit, ranch managers rig, come to think of it, I don't think I could sell it, too much guilt involved. Hit your local auto auction, they are cheap as shit now with fuel getting so damn high.

    Winter fuel mixture

    EXACTLY!!!!!!!! Use power systems of some other comparable, additive. #1 should be good to -25, I've started with straight #1 in -35 with no additive, not with a 6.5 though, the guys around here use battery, fuel, oil, and coolant heaters. Might look into it if its cold enough.

    Big 6.5 Test

    I hit the tooth fairy on the head and buried him in the woods, he was breathing heavily leaning over my kid, what would you do? I didn't mean to bash anyone, I have dealt with 6.5's for a long while, still do. We run 3500 head of cows in montana, have 10 ranch trucks and 3 of them are...

I have quite a few flavors of diesel trucks, and came here to get away from all of the crap on other forums, I am not a newbie, I have wrecked a lot of stuff and paid for it, I have a ton of good advice and knowledge. I also am full of hot air...

    03-07 6.0L .... Any out there yet?

    Being that I ranch, and own a small fleet of diesels, i own 3 6.0L's, 5 DMAX's, 4 Cummins. I have had good luck with my 6.0's except for the chalk in my overflow, and one with an egr/oil cooler failure. Other than that SCT fords have been pretty good for me.

    Noise around 1200-1400 RPM, Buzzing sound.

    Big 6.5 Test

    I didn't read previous posts, but did someone mention the horrid design of the 6.5's water jacket? How about the bottleneck at the thermostat? Or the small capacity water pump, or the fact that the passenger side exhaust travels less distance, and has less back-pressure than the drivers side...
