Aw, Puke!

How much does it cost to fix a Ford Powerstroke 6.0? 

Let's ask Mr. Owl...
1, 2, 3 Thousand... (I wish)

So far I've replaced the oil cooler along with the right head and gasket plus numerous degas bottles. After over $3K spent in repairs, I'm still getting coolant blown out. By process of elimination, I'm pretty sure it has to be the left head gasket. Actually, I'm praying it's just the gasket. Those heads ain't cheap!

Cripes! That blue oval's gonna turn you back to MoPar...

I'm going to forward this post to my oldest son, who is all gaga about Ford kerosene burners, although he seems to be keen on the Eco-Boost also. (He owns neither, but his '97 F-150's nickel has about 240K on the clock.)
