    6.0L alternator

    I decided on a NAPA Gold, new 110amp. Little more pricy than O'Reilly but I trust NAPA a whole lot more. And it has a lifetime as well.

    Battery

    I have the third set of Motorcraft Batteries in my 14 year old, 140,000 mile F250. The originals lasted 6 years, the first set of replacements lasted 7 years. I wouldn't use any other battery in my 2004 6.0L

    Oh, and replace those crappy factory hoses with an aftermarket hose kit. I tow a 30ft 5er with my '04, and had blown hoses until I did the hose replacement and hairspray.

    Ford F250 Super Duty

    Not wanting to "degrade" anybody's posts or comments, so I'll just put my 2cents worth in. I have a 2004 F250 with the "so called" bad 6.0L., and I love my truck !! I have 135,000 on it and tow a 14,000 lb. 30ft 5er. So, take it with a grain of salt, but not ALL "2003-2011" trucks are bad. My...

    Thanks to all who gave advice on the FICM repair & replacement.

    Sorry about that. I am frustrated in my truck. After watching a couple web pages and doing some testing, I am believing that my FICM is bad, after only 85,000 miles. With ign. on I have 47.9V, with engine running I have 19.4V.
