90's F250/350 Oil Burner Questions

We are thinking about picking up a mid to late 90's F250 or F350 Diesel.

What is there to watch for? There are a few around here with around 200,000+ miles ranging from $6,500 to $9,000. Most are 4x4 and look to be in good shape.

PSD??? the gaskets with the harness caused the odd headache... they're pretty reliable.
if you're lookin at IDI's....93,94...i can write you a book.....LOL j/k i think the IDI's were the best.

Bill i can cut you a good deal on the truck in my avatar....

Thanks Brent,

I haven't really followed the evolution of the "Binder" diesel. Is there a place to find this info?

Been out of the big truck for six months and missing the diesel smell I guess!!!

I like the pulling power and fuel mileage of the oil burner. (AND I can put STACKS on it!!! )

Do I have to dig it out of your back yard????

What are the details?

Bill

No its parked up front. The Gasser is in the back yard.. No more bricks on it anymore so i can drive it anywhere.LOL
Diesel........400,000kms.. probably needs a trans now as i ran it out of fluid.. nees some body work..
AC still blows cold, new power lock actuators...new batteries, new tires.
ATS turbo, new injector return lines, orings and hats.
LOL..... not really a gem.
Sadly I think it'll become a cash for clunkers truck.
theres no way i'll get 4K for it otherwise.

Bill,

Are you looking for a 4X4 or 2 wheel drive also are you looking for a Dually.There's a 97 F-250 or 350 Dually Diesel Extended cab 2 wheel drive for sale about 5 minutes from my house.It's pretty clean it was from North Carolina at one time the guys asking $6,950.00 obo for it.I live in Northeast,Ohio if your interested and want pictures let me know and i'll send you some.

That's cool of you to offer Mark!!

A southern truck would be a bonus for sure!! That sounds like a great price.

Don't go out of your way, but if your passing by snap a pic!!

Thanks again Mark.
