[QUOTE="powerstrokes4life, post: 1557572, member: 34166"] I dont let me truck sit and idle like some people. But most importantly, i drive it like it is a TRUCK. its designed to do work, and i drive it such. Keeping EGT's under 1150, RPM's under 3200 (and i have 4.30 gears), and regular, almost cult like, maintenance. People always forget about the water separator. I dont use any special oil, just basic Delo 400LE changed every 5,000 miles. Fuel filters every 10,000 miles. Probably the first noise you need to listen for is the ticking from your valve covers (rocker arms wearing out). and checking the amount of blowby that you see coming from the oil fill. some oil smoke is normal, but if it starts to look like an old steam locomotive, prepare for a replacement. When mine finally let go, i had little to no warning. It didnt over heat, didn't even make a sound. It pushed the glow plug harness out and puked oil all over the exhaust manifolds. One big smoke show going down the interstate. [/QUOTE]
