any buyers for used atf, motor oil, coolant?

Its scary - 6.0 Fords have head gasket, egr gooler, and other problems...6.4's are supposedly nightmares too...All the mileage ratings are down across the board.

Even the fleet and heavy truck guys complain that the newer engines have become "fragile" (their words) since the addition of emissions equipment, and their mileage is down as well. In an industry where 1mpg is a big deal, its scary!

Yea, its the whole emissions...that caused a huge issue with all diesel motors....its best to keep a OLD truck... implant a new motor so you can cut away all the new emissions laws as your truck is beyond the testing date!

P.s for those who do not know....diesel is cleaner than a gas car....If you run full bio fuel...you diesel truck/car is 100% green friendly and dose not case any harm to the earth.

i got a 5.0 in my f150 but its gas. and it cant pass up a gasstation without stopping either.

Used veggie oil (I use this in my truck and actively buy it at $1 to $1.50 based on how much you have)

ATF as been said can be used.

jet fuel JP8 (jp-8) works as just as #1 and #2 diesel based on the time of year you pick it up

kerosene works great (good as rase fuel as well if you want more boost power...but you should cut it and not use straight..but you can)

Home heating oil in some cases can work

In short....diesel trucks can run on alot of things...the newer trucks...not so much.

We use to do veggie oil conversions to diesel. Google it if you have a diesel. Any questions PM us. A conversion can be a cheap as $400 if you do it yourself. Furthermore, if you have a dodge diesel or a cummins diesel, they will run on veggie oil stock from the factory. Again, if you need assistance PM us.
