Default 03 f250 6.0L

Just got truck back. Dealer said he did his own diagnostics and couldn't find anything wrong with the truck so they put an sct tuner on it and they said it is to 6.4 liter instead of 6.0 so I changed it to 6.0.

Default sct tuner

So since bowitch ford is saying oil cooler running hot and dealer saying it's within ford specs I'm stuck with 2 opposite opinion, dealer put an sct tuner and now with an SCT tuner set to performance should I change it to street settings since it's all stock with 190k miles

Okay....I'd suggest you find someone like me that has an AutoEnginuity setup to check your truck before you kill it.

Went through program and they set it up for a 6.4L, egr off and it's still in truck, speed limit off, revs set at 4150. I set it back to street, egr on and Idk what to put speed at, I don't go over 80 anyway with it. I have the Torque program with phone but how do I watch the boost

Checked oil and looks ok just a little dark and dip stick showed it had too much oil so I drained some to where it showed half on dip stick. Started truck and knocking sound is still there, almost sounds hollow metal sound, any ideas?

Guy from ford came by and said he didn't hear anything funny or see anything that would indicate some wrong, said knocking wasn't a problem. Said to drive it and let him know if I need anything else, recommended an egr delete so guess I'll start saving!
