Reliability? High HP and reliability don't really go together with Subaru's haha. Well it can if you do the right maintenance. But high power will definitely need good cooling, built heads, and a sleeved block for sure.

Not Subaru related but a truck I bought was delivered to my house today.
2001 F350 SD 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel Has a 6.5" lift and 37" BFGoodrich 37" A/T's on it right now. 4" exhaust, etc. Needs some work right now. Oil cooler o-rings, rear diff pinion seal, new glow plug relay and glow plugs, etc. Maybe new injector o-rings. Transmission was completely rebuilt just a year ago. Needs some body work too but I got it really cheap |

I've heard different things about the diesel injectors and how much of a pain they are to work with. If its an injector you need to replace all of them because of the high pressure or something. Will try and find the info I was reading up on...
Glow plugs aren't too hard, but I think the harness is buried deep if it needs to e replaced. relay should be relatively easy to swap Sweet truck tho! Don't even need to jack it up to work under it! |

Glow plugs are easy. Valve cover comes off, 10mm 1/4" deep socket and it's done. Harness inside might need to be changed but we'll see. Previous owner didn't stress it out a lot so not a lot of heat. Yeah it's so tall I'm 6ft tall and barely see the engine standing. I need a chair to stand on then stand on the front bumper to work on it. Basically twice as tall as the subie haha Not to mention doing an oil change on this thing takes over 4 gallons! 16 ish quarts. 8 gallons of coolant too. jesus. |

What oil are you running? I bought a 5 gallon pail of rotella 15w40 from Canadian tire this weekend for $57 on sale from $80. Might go back to buy some more for future use since an oil change is like 4 gallons haha. Are you using a tuner as well? Looking at a dp tuner f6 because that's what everyone likes to use. Also where are you getting oil filters? Ford dealer? Everyone says use oem motorcraft filter. |
