Coldest its gotten here in Arizona was 27 where I'm at, and it started up quicker than my gasoline truck LOL, only took 1-2 seconds for life. It would start better if I would stop slacking and fix my air intrusion that I 'accidentally' caused and replaced my worn out starter.

 

Arizona sounds nice haha starters should be cheap for these right? and here is the truck I'm looking at. I dont know why I didnt just post the URL earlier.

Ford DIESEL F250 4X4 1993

 

Call and ask some questions, does he know why the transmission went into limp mode. If it has the 4spd auto there are several other cheaper things that could go wrong causing it to limp, a bad tachometer sensor for instance.

 

that's a nice looking truck
