general problems of the 1999 Ford F-450

I have a 1999 Ford power stroke diesel. In may of 2006 I had a cps failure which caused my vehicle to shut down intermittently while traveling, mostly in intersections and at stops. The problem continued for several weeks until I could identify the cps as the cause. Since then I have changed out three cps units on three other superduty's. I replaced all of the units with International parts due to the excessive cost of the unit from Ford. Unfortunately, I did not save the defective parts being all to happy to discard them!.

I have a '1999 f250 Ford with a triton v10. On Nov 13th one of the spark plugs blew out of the head. I was able to drive it home and after some research on the internet ordered a repair kit. I repaired the failure with this kit and all is well for now. The kit cost me $300 bucks and the repair took about 4hrs. This is design flaw with the Ford engines. Hopefully, after enough complaints Ford will at least fix this on future models.
