[QUOTE="powerlifter405, post: 1083728, member: 2044"] I picked up one w/ 289k on it. It runs pretty d@mn good. A slight miss when accelerating when cold. 100% on when warmed up. I passed some basic info to a buddy who specializes in 6.0 and he mentioned this for basic reliability maintenance: ICP STC Dummy plugs lifters HPO branch tube ALL oil related O-rings Ford injectors The 6.0 is no 7.3 and from everything I can find is very very maintenance sensitive, whereas the 7.3 would shrug off a late oil change or cheapy filter. Even after talking w/ Swamps and a few other shops, 6.0 injectors and the motor just requires these to be addressed w/ more frequency than the 7.3. From what I understand the 6.0 can be a reliable platform but the maintenance requirements are more stringent. W/ the miles you have I'd venture those items probably need addressing. I've been under the hood already and did the egr delete (use the factory up-pipe welded shut and into a single piece :thumbsup:). I'll pull the motor later and do studs and those minor items and hope to have it last another 250k. Good luck w/ the problems you're facing. [/QUOTE]
