Possibly buying an 05' F250 need some opinions

Here is what I found on the Oasis report. Are these normally reacurring problems or are they pretty much one time problems for every 100K miles or so. The no start problem happened at 100k and the EGR coolant problem happened at 121k the truck has 145k now. Its a good looking truck just worried aobut these two problems. C S VEHICLE IS HARD TO START, SOMETIMES WILL NOT START,Tech Comments:100981 CHECK FOR NO START, HAS NO ICP PRESSURE. CHECK FOR LEAKS IN HIGH PRESSURE OIL SYSTEM, LEAKING AT HIGH PRESSURE PUMP FITTINGS AND RIGHT OIL RAIL. REMOVE TURBO AND REMOVE HIGH PRESSURE OIL PUMP TO REPLACE FITTINGS AT PUMP. ALSO REMOVE RIGHT VALVE COVER AND REPLACE O RING ON HIGH PRESSURE OIL RAIL. REASSEMBLE AND ROAD TEST TO VERIFY REPAIRS. 11.0

They fixed the most irritating problem with the 05 that will leave you stranded. The fittings for those trucks were redesigned. You should not have to worry about that anymore. The oil and egr coolers are a common issue. I installed a coolant filter to extend the life of those components. Thats something you can think about later.

It looks like little work has been done to this truck. I would not be afraid of it.

Yup, looks like the problem areas have been addressed, just dont go putting a tuner on it and you will be fine!
