2013 Ford PowerStroke 6.7L
I'm starting to 'kick the tires' and I really like the F-350 Ford. What are you guys hearing about their new 6.7L PowerStroke? Did they get it right this time? Thanks in advance for your comments...

Bosch says that it is a platform, and they will build to whatever is spec'ed by the manufacturer. But for the time being I am going to assume that the internals are the same, and just mounting bosses etc are different.

I was busy posting, and did not see your recent post until I was finished.
A question for you. Since your vehicle is a 2011 Duramax, I must assume it does NOT have the problematic Bosch CP 4.2 pump.
It is my understanding that Duramax didn't get this pump until the 2012 model year.
Am I correct or misinformed here?????
It is interesting to me about the totally opposite views from Ford and GM regarding additives... GM poo poos them and Ford seems to push their own... Could be profit motivated, as theirs is the only one to get Fords approval. I can't believe that there aren't others that would accomplish the same thing.
I have read quite a bit about additives as well.
I have never seen where anyone has determined for certain just what is in any of them. It is all proprietary info IOW, secret. I suppose that one could spend some bucks to have them analyzed, but it would likely be a ton cheaper to just buy it from Ford.
