Ahhhhhh. The good old reliable 7.3! Its a 1995 so I believe they started putting a turbo in then didn't they. The early 90s didn't have one. Simple motor.. Will run for ever! Then ford left that engine and went into the 6.0 debacle!This was a beast, my starter from 1994 F350 diesel, The notorious top bolt was tuff even though I read a few articles about it,
the truck sits high enough I can crawl underneath without much difficulty
it actually came out pretty easy but took some patience and of course coatings of oil/dirt, luckily I wore my safety glasses but still got droppings in my face,
tomorrow the new one goes in and I have to try to fix a leaking fuel return line

What a coincidence, I am replacing starter on my 2006 Duramax today. It died yesterday.This was a beast, my starter from 1994 F350 diesel, The notorious top bolt was tuff even though I read a few articles about it,

We have a 1989 F superduty aka. F450 with a 7.3l. Nornally asp. very easy to work on old school diesel, wide open engine bay unlike the Duramax which is crammed in there. The Duramax has more pulling power for pulling a 12,000# hay wagon up Hardscrabble hill,due to the boost. And the Ford is a much heavier truck.Ahhhhhh. The good old reliable 7.3!

5-1. Hmmmmmmm
Really cool, I love reading old stones...my sister was born in Plymouth. Me, further up the coast in Weymouth. My ancestors have a family cemetary in Centerville/Hyannis area on a hill above "Phinney's " lane, My last name. About 60-70 of us planted there going back to mid 1700's. You will see it on the map on the back of a Cape Cod potato chip bag. You will also see Willow st. on the map, my wifes name. Coincidence? Freaky!In Plymouth for the weekend. Decided to stroll around and we found the original graveyard from the first colony. This guy was the last survivor of the Mayflower.
