How much is to much blow by on a 7.3 diesel?
I'm thinking of buying a 2000 ford f250 4x4 with a 7.3 v8 diesel, my question is the motor has 240000 and the owner says there's some blow by, i've heard that these motors can go in the hundreds of thousands of miles, now this truck is amazingly clean in and out and runs strong and the price is right at 6500.00 should i be concern about this slight blow by.
Hard question to answer without seeing it. If its just some fine smoke maybe coming out a handswidth, it is probably ok. If its puffing out or making it halfway to the open hood, it would be way too much. That's about as close as I can tell you from here.
- Why did my 2000 Ford Windstar just blow all off the tranny fluid out. But now its not leaking anything? I drove it with a trailer attached all day then I dropped the trailer off and drove home. When a was turning on to my street the car violently shuck but kept going I pulled into my drive way and looked under my car and big puddle of tranny fluid everywhere. So I filled it up this morning and drove it 75 miles and when I got back I was still full on fluid and nothing was leaking. So WHY?
