1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

The EGR needed replacing, but it's always been maintained like crazy. Has just over 100k miles on it only. Like 130k or so I forget.

I may need to drain the fuel though because it's been about a year since it's sat. When it had the EGR code/issue, that's when my FIL passed away.

But I'll be keeping it since he did jokingly mention me getting it if anything happened and well, now I own it.

 

Selling the 7.3 was a dumb move. I always get a rush of joy when mine cranks to life.

 

Still need to order a machine torch...fuckers are expensive

 

She's young for sure! Look into the Bulletproof Diesel EGR if you haven't already replaced it. Since you are not able to delete where you reside haha. Stock configuration it should run well with hardly any detrimental repairs. The 6.0L got a bad rap, but its a solid motor if left stock/slightly modified. I also recommend, secondary oil and coolant filtration along with replacing the factory oil cooler with another or Bulletproof Diesels oil cooler kit. If it hasnt been replaced ever. Could benefit from that drain and refuel though.

 

Preparing to move to Northern Colorado here in the next year so it was unfortunately the right move. It would have sat more than it already did too. Ill own another in the future.

 

Saving this post for future use.

Priority would be getting it up and running, which could take me awhile not knowing shit about diesels so I'll be on here and maybe the Powerstroke forum.

After that, then I can look into reliability mods like you mentioned. But yes, it will remain completely stock IE no tunes or power mods will be added.

If you saw it, you can totally tell it's an old man truck with how clean it is inside and out.

 

You'll catch on to em quick. They are pretty simple motors. Its only fair to leave it exactly as it was left to you. Clean and grandpa haha. Lots of good people on the powerstroke forums.

 

I'll be moved to Albuquerque by this weekend so we should meet in the middle some time

 

When I was in Seattle I er the weekend I walked by this house and it still has me fucked up.

 

4x4 parking only

 

Thatd be sweet! We will have to plan something for sure.

I have confusion.

 

What's in northern Colorado

 

closer to Wyoming fireworks

 

Pfffftt a couple rigs now hahaha. Pipeline stuff, Mostly downstream stuff. But better than southern CO. Ill find something up there. Maybe even Wyoming too.

 

I bet we have 4 rigs by the end of next year

 

That more or less than now haha? DJ Basin surprisingly has 12 rigs right now.

 

2 more, we just closed on Caerus last week

 

@Ozark_RegCab
