Re: Whats your mileage on your 7.3 ? and with what repairs???

Hi All,

1000 miles: replaced master cyl and slave on the clutch. Master had a bad stem seal from the factory.

Replaced the fuel tank sendor unit. Bad from the factory. No prewarning chime or lite. I had on 775 miles on the first tank and still had just about 3/8 of a tank left (according to the gauge) when the engine quit. Dang there went my 30mpg fill up. LMAO

I've since tested my new gauge several times and it will chime and lite at 100 miles left on the tank then 3gal more left in the tank at fill up. Of course I carry a extra 5gal when testing. My mama didn't raise no fool the second time around. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/blush.gif[/img]

27k mile: I have some kind of power steering leak. The front end got the shakes on me after crossing a waste water grate in a underpass. Lucky I was at 35mph. That was my fault as the PS fluid was low. I haven't looked but that would indicate a check valve stuck open? A roundtoit project.

Problem unkown at this time. I will post a follow up after repairs.

Buy UNION work UNION. It pays off in the long run
Define Union:
A labor Union is nothing more than united workers with a common goal for better working conditions.

We all are in some sort of labor Union, some are just larger than others with better working conditions!
