Well I guess it's time .... Since getting my new to me 05 back in june , I'm already at 5000 miles on the oil. So after help from you guys, I called the International dealer today and ordered a fuel filter kit $56.40, Blue spring kit $29.02, and 7 gallons of Rotella ELC 50/50 @ 11.60 per gallon. I had already gotten the oil Rotella 15w40 at wally world for $12.87 a gallon a while back. I got the Motorcraft oil filter for free from Advance by ordering some stuff I needed for a suburban until I reached the "free Shiping " threshold. I like doing stuff like that . :thumbsup:
Anyway the plan for sat. is to change the oil and filter, pull and clean the EGR valve, change out the fuel filters, do the blue spring upgrade, and flush the cooling system and change over to the Rotella ELC. I'm still on the fence on whether or not to use the VC-9 or the Restore type flush, or just water then distilled water. A friend from work is bringing me a gallon of one or the other type flushers in the morning. He could not remember what kind it was. Anyway he's just giving it to me to get it out of his shop. I may or may not use it....
I'm saving for EGR delete kit and head bolts and all that jazz but right now just the blue spring and coolant change for the bulletproofing..... Wish I could win that lottery.... Only missed it by six #'s last time...... :lol:
Anyway I feel like I got a pretty good deal on the filters and spring kit, I have no idea when the fuel filters were changed last so I,m anxious to see what they look like.... I'll stop ramblin' now just felt like talkin to some powerstroke folks...:thumbsup:
