Mine is sitting at 224k and still going.
I hit 80 every now and again (in ATL). No worries.
Did just replace all four corner’s brakes.

Moose - any pics? I am having the same issue. No leaks for 19 years - windshield finally had a chip that could not be fixed and the windshield was replaced. Now it leaks.
I have had Safelite pull it twice now, and i have bee there to see the GIANT bead of glue they used before pulling it...
As most have stated, one of the biggest issues is rust.
I have had mine for 6 years, got it with 72k on the clock and it had been “babied “ - almost too much.
Thankfully, no rust to be found for the most part - some very minor surface rust.
Hope to keep this thing for a long time.

As an aside - the thing I could have done differently in the last oil change is not use 5w-20 M1 HM FS.
Due to change in 3k, so will update viscosity then.
Thanks.

Hmmm. Had not thought of that.
10w-30 Full Synthetic - something to consider.
I may Simple Green the entire engine to clean it - see what i see.
More research to come.

Thanks for the thoughts and replies.
Will just keep on plugging then.
I don’t think the Lucas will hurt anything - does not get that cold where I live. I will just make sure I keep changing fluids regularly - I use M1 5w-30 for oil - always had good luck with that.
I appreciate it.

I have 1999 EB 5.4 with 207K miles. It "uses" oil, meaning I have to add oil between changes, sometimes up to 1.5 quarts. I keep hearing that my Expy is "using" oil, but not sure what that means.
1. The ground is clean under it - no drips, no nothing.
2. There is no smell of burning oil...
Thread resurrection!!
How easy is it to replace the housings? Assuming you would replace bulbs when housing is out of the Expy...

Hey. I need to backflush my heater core - or I may have to replace it.
Did you install those T’s to help with the flush?

Fixed the AC changing to defrost due to vacuum loss. Bought 18” of vacuum hose and replaced almost all of the vacuum lines on that system. Check valve was good. But there was a ton of dry rot. Truck is 20 years old - it’s expected.

Replaced the #3 COP and ripped out the PCV hoses in the process - the were all OE - surprised they’ve lasted this long.
