I personally think the dog would look better in the back of a 3rd or 4th Gen Cummins. Just my .02

She may not have that many problems with the engine (besides injectors), but then she'll have to deal with all that Dodge junk the engine is wrapped in.

Any truck has its downfalls.

To the OP, good luck with your truck!

Sorry to hear and good luck. 6.0s are a love hate relationship, I've only got to drive mine twice in the 3 months I've owned it.

Has anyone ever delt with a tappet failure before? From what I'm told this is a rare occurance even for the 6.0L

SKYNYRD · Jan 23, 2014

I have had them fail in a gas engine never in a diesel.

6.boom · Jan 23, 2014

Makes me nervous about the damage it might have caused when it failed.

How long was it ran that way?

6.boom · Jan 23, 2014

I was told they shut it off immediately after they heard it. It happened after they first cranked it over once they put it all back together from replacing the head.

That's fuggin gay. Opt out of the Ford. Is it possible the shop just loves seeing your pretty face?

SKYNYRD · Jan 23, 2014

Normally in my experience it takes out the lifter/tappet and the cam.

YOUNG GUNS15 · Jan 23, 2014

my cousins truck had a tappet failure while cruising down the road and it ruined the entire motor. cross your fingers

It's back boys! Now taking bets on what will break next. Get out your wallets guys, you may win big.

WhitetailAddict · Feb 17, 2014

Good luck with it!

My safe bet is on injectors...
