Hey folks, I'm new to the forum since I just got my first Diesel rig.

A guy at work GAVE me a 93' F350, 5-speed, crew cab, 4x4, long bed. He says it is using A LOT of oil and is not into working on stuff.

Sure, the 'using a lot of oil' may be a huge issue. But heck, I'll give fixing it a whirl if the truck is FREE.

I'm sure I'll be posting a lot of questions and pics as time goes by. I'm used to working on gas trucks (89' F250, 7L, 460, reg cab, 4x4) but diesels will be a new and exciting challenge.

 

got an non turbo (ALL BLOW NO GO) truck no there pretty good trucks.

 

Huh? English please.

 

Congrats on your new rig. I'm not familiar with pre-power stroke rigs, that thing got a turbo? Might be a bit slow. Oh well, plenty of potential and you can't beat the price

 

Yes, it has a turbo. It was the first year of the Turbo Diesel. I rode in it and drove it months ago. It wasn't shy about power or speed back then.

 

I believe the early 93's were with out a turbo. But I'm sure it's a power house always like the obs's.

Sorry, you are incorrect. The 93' came with a stock turbo. Research the 7.3 IDI engine and you will see.

 

Huh. I coulda swore some of the 93's came without a turbo.

Maybe some did. It just sounded like you were doubting the stats of my rig.

 

No, I wasnt, sorry for confusion.7.3 are great motors on a great truck.turbo or not.
