My son has a 6.0 and we have used it pretty hard. He says they are the best deal out there because everyone is afraid of them. He loves his. That being said, he spent the $5,000 required for EGR delete and new head bolts. According to my Ford diesel expert they can be a good engine if updates are done and done right. He says the 6.4 is a much worse engine. The later 6.7s are finally getting pretty good but a local Ford dealer has replaced a couple of those too. Did he have the heads off and the head bolts replaced? Who did the work? If not done or not done right you should plan on spending $5,000 for an upgrade at some point. I would rather have a lower mile one and have the upgrades done myself. I still stick with the 7.3 diesel. I found a 2001 crew cab dually with 110,000 miles in very nice shape. I paid $17,000 for it. I took it to my expert and spent over $1,000 in neglected maintenance. I am spending another $1,500 on bigger exhaust, new exhaust tubes to the turbo, and a controller. Whatever you buy, plan on spending some money getting it into shape.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
