Hi everybody new to the site, just wanted to say hi and introduce my self and my truck.

I have an 04' power stroke mostly stock with a 4" turbo back exhaust..except for the stupid 3" cat in line, and an airaid open element intake set up. truck has 127k on it right now, never had any issues with the head bolts, no tunes, no big issues.
I've had the EGR solenoids replaced 3 times, the EGR cooler hose twice, and the EGR cooler once, at 95k I sent the FICM in for a re-solder but did not up the voltage kept the 48 volts, also took the turbo off and cleaned up the unison ring and vains. the truck runs ok now.
I've had Dodges in the past with the 12 valve engine loved it put almost 350k on it...just wore it out.
now I've got a boat with twin cummins 4BT motors in it and love tinkering with them.
and thinking about putting a 4bt in an old jeep that I have...some day I hope.
looking forward to sharing some of my adventures here..never been a member of a site like this before.

 

must suck living in the Peoples Republic but welcome to the site, you seem like you are a diesel nut, you will fit in great Sounds like you have a good setup on your truck, make sure you get a coolant filter on that thing to protect your oil cooler and that will help protect your egr cooler too.
