I know exactly what you mean, but I don’t know. Just a guess, maybe because it’s simply the largest displacement diesel engine…just hit a different note with the extra cubic inches 🤔

@@bw973 it adds to the sound and makes it better tho

​@@bw973i found out, i knocks from the injectors

Dude no, that truck is a clapbox, lol. I own a well maintained 7.3 and it doesn't knock like this at all. ​@@bw973

I don’t know actually. It was installed when I bought the truck, and then I just had it muffler deleted. But I don’t own it anymore unfortunately.

Yeah, just stock

Exhaust leak? Maybe a gasket on a manifold is bad?

I don’t recall having any rubbing or clearance issues with that setup. A side note though: that wasn’t factory ride height. I think I had 2.5” spring pack in the front and maybe 1” spacers in the rear.

As far as the sound? Really just the 4” straight exhaust, no muffler etc, and the 5” tip. Eventually swapped to a 7” which looked good and sounded a little better, but got droney when towing.

Did you do anything else or is it stock just with a straight pipe because I want mine to sound like this

​​@@Ryan.p852 yes, I have an old programmer on it called, Diablosport, it has 40hp, 60hp 80hp and 100hp, I keep it on 100hp. Also have the S & B cold air intake. If you do put the 4in exhaust on your truck I would at a minimum, put a cold air intake on it also, you'll need to allow the engine to breathe better and that won't happen with oem filter on it, you'll could blow your motor if you ever stomped on it, ok. Hope this helps ya, and just have fun Rollin Coal!!! 😂

@@silvergrizzly316 what’s like the safe hp range to run it at with all those mods

@@Ryan.p852 with my cold air intake and 4in exhaust, I keep mine on 100hp all the time. But if you're towing a heavy trailer it's recommended to set it at 40hp its the towing setting, you don't want to tow with 100hp you could damage your transmission.

@@Ryan.p852 there's different and more high tech programmers out there now you'll just have to find one that fits you.

From this truck I upgraded to a 2017 F350 6.2. Had both trucks for a total of about 4 years. Both trucks were awesome and well suited for our 9000lb rv. I didn’t own them for a long time, but they didn’t give me problems. They both had a “long crank” to start sometimes but always started. You can find threads on that topic.

I don’t actually. Not because I didn’t like it though…I have a problem with always eyeballing the “next truck”.

@@bw973 i see! Lol.. I’m planning to buy one. But idk how reliable is this 6.2l.

All my research said that it was a reliable engine. I might avoid the first couple years of production, just because it was new. I actually had two 6.2s and only had one engine code. I don’t remember what it was but it didn’t even effect drivability.

Parked on a hill

yes......

I don’t remember an engine coming on.

I have some info in the video description…but this was my friends car over a decade ago, so I don’t know anything beyond that

Said it was Megan Racing

It’s been awhile, but if I remember correctly it was a failing wiper motor. It sounds completely random but I remember getting multiple sources that said the same.

Or the CPS as mentioned in other comments…

Since this video, I have moved onto a newer 6.2 gas F250. I really liked my 7.3 but not so much the way it towed. Now, I have heard there is a significant difference if you have a manual 5 speed and lower gearing in a one ton as opposed to a 3/4 ton, but I can’t speak from experience. I have a 2017 6.2 with 373 gearing and it handles the same rv muuucch easier. But I guess it should with almost 20 years of improvements.

@@bw973 I'm specifically looking for the best rig to tow heavier RV's for under $10k. Can't finance a truck and can't go over that. Which is what attracted me to the 7.3's given their reliability.

@@iviaverick52 Well you’re definitely gonna see an improvement coming from an 07 F150. And yeah, I owned mine 8 years or so and never had any significant issues.

Nope, those are factory Ford rims.

@@bw973 OK Thanks. I have a similar f350 that needs tire upgrades.

Well, apparently it pointed a few people in the right direction at least, ssooo... 🤷🏼‍♂️

@@bw973 anything that helps it makes sense to crank your engine while the water seperater is open to force fuel.

I cleaned computer grounds, replaced wiper motor and still doing it. Tomorrow i will run the power from the battery to fuse 11 under the dash hopefully i will have better luck.

i’m in same situation

Did it work
