Nothing major (engine - trns.- rear) 140,000 miles. A/C problem - evaporator (Florida).
It has been the best investment in a vehicle I have ever made. I drive it hard & put it away wet. I tow a race car all over florida & previously N.Y.
Gas mileage is low (must be the way I drive).
I have an F-250 1988. I love it.
Can anyone tell me about the 460 exhaust leaks? What do you do about the exhaust manifolds?
It goes away after about 5 miles of driving.
To the writer of the comment, if it goes away it sounds like the manifold to head bolts need to be tightened. To the person who wrote the review, my 87' went 240,000 hard miles before I traded it in for a new one.
I had the same problem with the leaking exhaust manifolds I found that all of the cold air that is being pumped on to the top of the manifold causes it to heat up and the bolts end up breaking. So what I did is, I went to SUMMIT raceing and got a new set of headman headers. Haven't had a problem sence.
I have a 87 Ford longbed and it has a 7.5 litter and its the best truck I ever had.
