    AIS Filter

    The AIS sounds like the way to go. I guess the fender sleeve option is also the way to go. What is the install time 30-45 minutes I guess? Where is a good place to purchase this from? Thanks Bill

    Question Oil Question

    This may seem like a weird question for 7.3 owners. Considering most of us use Motorcraft, Shell Rotella, Mobil Delvac, Chevron Delo and Valvoline Blue 15/40 weight oil(s) has anyone who changed brands regreted doing so (truck ran better on previous brand/ truck didn't use oil with previous...

    Russ, Like Hooper said, it was in Costco's monthly coupon book they mailed out. I think the offer is good until Dec 7th. Good luck, hope you can get the same deal.

    Delo 15w40 at Costco

    Thanks Dave for the information. Any difference with the Delo in your 7.3 compared to other oils used prior to Delo? I am interested to see if there will be any difference compared to the Rotella I was using? Thanks bot

    Delo 15w40 at Costco

    I have heard many good things about the Delo 15w40 oil. I was using Rotella 15w40 without any issues in my 2002 F350 7.3 Costco now has a coupon sale good until 12/7/08 regarding the Chevron Delo 15w40 oil. Regular price $66.00 (case) 6-1 gallon jugs. With the coupon is is $15.00 off of each...

    Rotella vs Delo (15w40)

    bbressler, Thanks for the reply, good information with the Blackstone report, interesting. Have you noticed any issues with oil consumtion with either oil? My 7.3 may use a little between oil changes. I found the coupon from Costco ($15.00 off 6/1 gallon case-limit 5 cases) I have also read...

    Rotella vs Delo (15w40)

    Just wanted to know what you 7.3 guys think with this question. I have been using the Rotella 15w40 in my 2002 F350 for a while with no issues/complaints. I also hear the Delo 15w40 is too an execellent oil. Costco has a good coupon deal on the Delo 15w40. Not saying I'm going to run out and buy...

    Question Does anyone use Z-Max?

    I am not an expert, but have read that if you are using a decent diesel oil and oil filter, there is never a need for an oil additive. A decent diesel oil will have the proper additives already added. bot

    Castrol Tection Oil?

    I was wondering if any of you guys have tried the Castrol Tection diesel oil yet and if so what are your thoughts? The reason I ask is a few years back I was at a truck show and a rep from Castrol was saying how great this product is for our Power Strokes. I will cetainly agree that Castrol...

    Oil Choice Question

    Zilla, Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like your 7.3 was good to you. I also use the stock MC oil filter which I have heard is hard to bet for the money. I am happy with my 02. BOT;tu

    Oil Choice Question

    Zilla, I agree with the saying also, no question about that. My 2002 seems to like the Rotella 15w40, I don't plan on changing to something else. My truck has just a little over 71,000 right now, daily driver. You have a good amont of milage on your truck. Does your truck use any oil between...

    Oil Choice Question

    Got a question regarding the brand of oil I am running in my 2002 F350 7.3 4x4. I have been running the Rotella T 15w40 for a few years now with the MC #1995 oil filter, no complaints. I know there may be better oils out there, but for the cost, I think the Rotella T 15w40 is a good choice...

    Air Filter /Exhaust Question

    I'm trying to figure out my options in an air filter/exhaust upgrade with my completly stock 2002 F350 4x4 7.3 I was looking at the Bully Dog products amung others. I know many of you guys have made this type of upgrade. Any difference with performance/milage? I guess I want my intake and...

    Air Itake/Exhaust

    Just wanted to get some feedback, before I decide on what to go with. I have a 2002 F350 4x4 7.3 with 71,000 completly stock. I want to go with a air filter setup/ and stainless exhaust without breaking the bank. I want my engine to breath better and hopefully help the fuel milage a little...

    Oil Useage

    The oil useage thing baffles me. I was at a truck show in Pa a few months ago. A trucker there told me he used Delvac in his KW with the Cat engine. He claimed his oil consumption dropped with the Delvac. The well known 15w40 oils are good oils, but maybe I'm wondering if the chemistry in the...

    Oil Useage

    No other changes or mods, truck is completly stock. I have also heard good things about the other oils (Delo-Delvac-Valvoline Blue) but never tried them. I plan on sticking with the Rotella, trucks seems to like that brand.

    Oil Useage

    Maybe, I'm wrong on this. My 2002 F350 7.3 is at 70,930 and running fine. A couple of years back I switched from the MC 15w40 to Rotella 15w40 mainly because it was easier to find in the gallon jugs. Truck ran great with the MC oil but used about 2 quarts between the 5000 change mark. It was my...

    How often do you

    I don't really do any haevy hauling or pulling with my truck. Just to be safe, I do have the transmission fluid flushed and filter changed every 30,000 for a piece of mind. I figure like everthing else, the transmision fluid looses it's protecive chemistry. I figure the fresh fluid and filter...
