Diesel-powered trucks have never been more popular, and Ford's Powerstroke family of Diesel engines have been a mainstay of the marketplace since they were introduced in 1994. While these engines are well known for their durability and longevity, they still require a rebuild at some point. How to best diagnose, repair, and rebuild these engines is somewhat of a mystery for those without access to the factory manuals until now. This book covers the vast majority of Powerstroke Diesel engines on the road, and gives you the full story on their design. Each part of the engine is described and discussed in detail, with full-color photos of every critical component. A full and complete step-by-step engine rebuild is also included. The book's appeal extends further with a wide range of engine-building tips, charts, graphs, and information-packed sidebars to share even more information. Detailed graphics showing the engine's various system designs are also a unique feature of this book. How to Rebuild Ford Powerstroke Diesel Engines 1994-2007 includes information on the 1994-2002 7.3L and 2003-2007 6.0L engines used in Ford's popular pickups and industrial work trucks. Author Bob McDonald is a well-known Diesel engine expert. He is the owner of Diesel repair specialty shop and has more than 20 years' experience repairing and rebuilding both gas and diesel engines of all kinds. "This is a great deal because two different diesel engines are covered in the same book by Bob McDonald. Bob, a 20 year diesel specialist, also does gas engines and anything that comes through his doors. Covering Ford/Navistar 7.3L and 6.0L diesel engines, this is the book we have been waiting for to clear up the problems about these two engines. If this book saves you just once from making a mistake while working on either of these engines, what is it worth to you? If you do not rebuild these diesels, buy it for a person who does or someone who is just learning. They will be in your debt. Great job, Bob" -- Mike Caruso ― engine professional Published On: 2012-10-24 book listed in "16 Must-Have Products" ― Diesel World magazine Published On: 2013-02-28 "This book is full of tips from a seasoned mechanic. While it will never substitute for a factory service manual, this book is a great resource. The large full-color photos would even make this a great tool for service writers, helping them to explain a rebuild to customers who don't want to take on the task themselves. Ford fanatics will, of course, have to have one. It's worth adding to your truck manual selection, for the tech tips alone." -- Trent Riddle ― Diesel World magazine Published On: 2013-03-13 Diesel-powered trucks have never been more popular, and Ford’s Power Stroke family of Diesel engines have been a mainstay of the marketplace since introduced in 1994.
