Ford 7.3L Power Stroke Oil Pan Repair - Problem Solved - Four Wheeler Magazine
Do you have a 7. 3L Power Stroke-powered truck with a rusty, leaking oil pan. The oil pan on our northern Illinois-based ’02 Ford F-250 4x4 had this problem. It had actually been leaking for the past two years, which means we only got 11 years out of it before rot poked holes in it. We wanted to replace the pan instead of using a kit or material to “repair” it. We were set to purchase a new pan from... It was then we stumbled on the cool new oil pan from Moroso. The Moroso 7. 3L oil pan (PN 27336) fits ’94-’03 Power Stroke turbodiesel engines, and it’s made from quality 16-gauge steel, which is thicker than the factory pan. The pan has a triple coat finishing process of a zinc phosphate that creates a durable finish foundation and also neutralizes any corrosion caused by the welding process during manufacturing. Moroso says that this process has been fine-tuned from the company’s years of oil pan building experience and from this oil pan being subjected to numerous salt spray testing. Compare these finishes to the factory pan only getting a black painted surface on top of its thinner construction, and it becomes clear that the Moroso unit is a vastly superior pan. internal OE-style anti-slosh baffle to keep oil contained in the oil pick up area. Moroso also offers an oil pan gasket (PN 27293) for the 7. 3L Power Stroke. Source: www.fourwheeler.com
