7.3 powerstroke, How do I fix it?

Posted by MarkWarden on January 12, 2010 at 04:48:31 from (163.185.155.53):

I have a 1995 F250 Power stroke, 190,000 mile, just broke in right? I bought the truck in 2004 with 162,000 miles - good clean truck really taken care of. As you can see I do not drive it much, just pull a horse trailer or hay trailer a few times a year. I had to put valve cover gasket on it shortly after I bought it! Oh well just one of those things that happen to the power stroke? I went to Ford and bought all new parts, gaskets, inner harness, glow plugs, had to make repairs to the out harness plug that seems to burn up, $500.00 worth of parts and a days labor on my part but problem fixed and should last another 190,000 miles? Wrong, 28,000 miles later the truck left me stranded 30 miles from the house with the same problem and a wreaker bill now! What is the fix for this??? Any tricks someone might have used with good success so far? I have got all the parts again to fix I just don't want to do it again.

Thanks
Mark
