It gets -40 below zero here my van is out so I went Full Synthetic bumper to bumper

[midwestconnection]

Detroit Lakes, Minnesota
Rotella 5-40 Full Synthetic for the 7.3L and Walmart 75-140 Full Synthetic for the Dana 60 floating rearend and I'm getting Full Synthetic Transmission Fluid tomorrow in Fargo. I got a Motorcraft oil filter and Prestone full strength antifreeze that I will mix 60/40 with distilled water to get to -50 below. I am also getting a transmission filter and pan gasket and the secondary filter for the oil line to radiator for my transmission. I put in a Hastings fuel filter with a 1/2 inch drive pocket in the top for easy removal next time. I'm also taking the plug out of the pump oiler in the front of the engine and siphoning out it's oil and replacing the plug and running it for five minutes and doing that three times like that guy says. I'm looking into new air filters even though my gage on the breather shows zero resistance.

I'm also installing a Industrial Kim Hotstart 2000 watt tank heater for my cooling system. $500 but I got it new on eBay for $158 delivered. It's two feet long and about the size of a baseball bat thick. It says it's only good for 300 to 400 cubic inches at -20 below. I think my Powerstroke is 444 cubic inches.

I ordered four Brigstone Blizzak W960 10 ply winter tires and I am putting 1000# of sand bags in the rear of the van.

I'm trying for my life to keep this thing alive, I can't afford shops. -- Am I missing anything? Thanks.
