dennis101279 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Can any body tell about the e7 350 motor? Is it a good one or bad? What is the most common problem with them? This motor had a rebuild 50k ago and has 430K on the truck.Thanks, Denny Edited July 12, 2014 by dennis101279 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/36335-93-mh613-with-e7-350-good-or-bad-motor/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolloffron Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 a company i used to work for had 15 of them,they were in roll-off trucks, 2 out of the 15 were problematic,but they were also the "spares" if you will, most of the trucks made it to 1 mil+ and were never touched for any major issues,a few of them were in the 30-40 thousand hour range. however,the company had a very strict maintenance schedule. oil change at 300 hours,coolant changed every 1200 hrs. one truck they pulled apart at 20,000 hours just have a look,and the lead mechanic said if he had a crystal ball he'd have left it alone,but one truck of the two problematic ones would spin bearings and head gaskets would go out. the other had injector and throttle issues. hope that helps you.

gearhead204 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 depends on the price for me, I take it it is a electronic v-mac eng. or manual throttle?
