Ok this is a long shot but got a call from School District Secretary just now and her son who is one of my DE kids from last year is in the Raleigh NC area with a 7.3 Ford failure of some sort (loss of power - no details). Anyway, they’re stuck and far from home - got a mom that’s worried - y’all get it. Here’s their location - if anyone can help them out, please let me know or post up and I’ll pass the info along. thanks M
If it still runs and they lost power, I’ve had the hose that goes to the intercooler blow off a couple different times.
