i have some questions about a 95 powerstroke. the oldest one i have worked on was a 99 and i also mainly work on cummins. but i was talking to a friend about purchasing a 95. it has 332000 miles on it and the body shows it. but i was curious about how durable that truck will be. and i dont have much knowledge of the fuel system or cooling system. i was just wondering if there is someone i could talk to that knows a little more about this truck to answer some of my questions. thanks -

typical leaks are...
mechanical pump leaks a little
there is two blue hoses that always leak under the fuel bowl
the plastic hex nut on the side of the oil pan where the dip stick tube goes in leaks
all the little orings leak.

pretty much its going to be a messy truck, mine is like a dog, it marks its spot where ever it goes.

fuel system is ok, its not the greatest. the HPOPs are weak, a good pump to replace them with are the 99^ 17* HPOPs.

cooling system is fine, i let my truck idle for hours. -
