Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Gas Engine Life Expectancy?

What do you all feel is the life expectancy of the new gas engines in the Super Dutys?

I'm thinking for ~30,000 mile a year driver mostly highway no major towing, just ladder racks and some tool boxes.

I've been a diesel pickup owner for years so I'm curious what you all would be happy to expect from a new purchase.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2006 F250 - Phaser Knock At Idle In Gear

Ok I bought this truck with a bad engine 5.4 3v had rod knocking. I rebuilt engine got it all back together and in truck. I did replace cam phasers and solenoids. After driving 20 mins or so it would start the phaser knock at idle in gear so I put a oil pressure gauge on it and cold had 55 psi after running 10 mins or so had 15 psi at idle then would drop to abought 9 psi. I am thinking I got bad cam bearings or something for some reason don't know why. I did it but I took oil cap off where you pour in the oil. Had to force it off it was pulling that much vaccum ones cap was off oil pressure jumped up to 25 psi. What could be causing this.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: F250 - Oil Life Meter Reset Message

I'm having trouble resetting my oil life meter in my 16 F250. I think I'm doing exactly what the manual says but nothing is happening. I turn the ignition on and wait a second for the ford start up graphics to finish and then press the gas and brake at the same time as far as they will go. The manual says after 3 seconds I'll see a message saying the reset is in progress but I don't get any message on the screen. Am I doing something wrong?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2005 F250 - Cam Phaser Knock / Timing Chain Slap On Start Up And Noisy Lifter

I have 05 F250 SD with 150k on it. The engine has the typical cam phaser knock, timing chain slap on start up and occasionally have a noisy lifter. As long as I use fresh 20-40 oil the engine symptoms are less and the engine runs strong. The motor also doesn't leak or burn oil and the plugs were change out about 20k ago.

The truck is still good and is prefect for my needs so to me it's seems worth fixing the needed repairs. What I would like to figure out how far should I take the motor... just have the chains, guides and phasers replaced or buy a rebuilt motor and swap it? I'm thinking just doing the phases and etc would be 1/2 the cost but may not last as long as rebuilt motor. But realistically I might only put 5-7k miles are year on it anyways.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2013 - Expected Life Of Battery - Replacement?

I have a 2013 F350 SRW diesel. What is the expected life of the original batteries?

In the owners manual, (page 319) there is a long process to "reprogram" the computer after a battery replacement. It does mention "E85" and similar gas phrases. The diesel has no such discussion.

Is this reprogram for gas engines only or do I need to do it on my diesel as well?

Seems recently my 2008 f250 diesel wants to go into 4wd all by itself. It's the electric switch on dash with the auto/lock front hubs. I'm thinking either the dash switch or the accuator motor. Where to start though... Also I can turn the switch to 4 wheel high and it doesn't go in.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2008 F250 - Low Power And Sputtering

6.4 diesel 2008 F250.... I have been having lots of trouble with low power and sputtering of this diesel truck . It almost seems like a fuel filter but I changed them out 2 times now and the same thing keeps happening . It has been a very cold winter here and if there was any water - it would freeze.

If I am going down the highway and it starts to sputter. I put transmission into neutral and shut motor off with key. Start it up and it's good for less than a minute or two and it's back to sputtering.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2008 F250 - Stuck In Park

My Ford 250 is currently stuck in park, it starts but I can't move the shifter. It sounds like it is a fuse issue from what I have read, but I bought the truck at an auction and I don't have a book. Do the brake or parking brake fuse? And where is it located? I know there is a panel under the hood and under the dash, which fuse to look for. It's a 2008 extended cab gas model.
