I only know from these engine on what I sell to keep them going.. I'm Old School V8 guy at heart that worked at a Ford Garage for 41 years. I've seen some really good ones & really bad ones.. From what I can tell, these engine LOVE CLEAN OIL. If your short driving & stopping I think it would be safer for 3 to 4K oil change. OHC's engines & timing chains love CLEAN NEW OIL. I've sold turbos on one engine with 39K, at that time we replaced the chains & gears. Customer bought it used from a Chevy store truck looked GREAT outside but not so much inside. We got FO MO CO to help this guy some he was Happy, if it were me I wouldn't have been happy spending $$ on a 13 Trk with only 39K I would be the 1st to be complaining. We have 3.5's with over 200K with regular maint. No Problems except a coil or two & spark plugs. We have 3.5's with 80K that need timing chains because they are loose & cause the engine to rattle & not run smooth. EVERYONE of these trucks with timing chain & turbo issue's the customer elected to do 7500+ miles oil changes & I know of one we did that at 70K had only 2 oil changes. All I know is if it's a 2.7, 3.5, 4.0, 4.6,5.0, 5.4, 6.2 & 6.8 with OHC, you'd better be changing your engine oil..

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
