2002 is the last year for the 7.3. Run, they are total pos, along with the 6.4. The 7.3 and the newer 6.7 are much more reliable. The high pressure oil systems in the 6.0 and 6.4 are nothing but trouble. I’ve got one torn apart on for a friend as we speak. Head bolts as mentioned above are another problem, along with the egr cooler failing. By far on a stock engine the High pressure oil system is the big issue.

Fords procedure on doing heads and head bolts among other things is to pull the cab from the chassis.
