The triton engine family is an excellent engine. The newer (2005 and up 3 valves per cylinder) sometimes and valve train problems such as lifters,broken springs and variable camshaft sprocket concerns but the V10 yur interested in is great. You have to watch that th sparkplugs dont come loose and fly out though taking the coil on plug with it. Just check or replace once a year. Also you have to watch for especially in motorhome cases due to the heat that the exhaust manifold to cylinder mounting studs are not broke. If they break it can be a pita to replace and usually results in a warped manifold. I think it is common for all engines and manifolds in motorhomes to have this concern. I have V10 in my Excursion and pull about a 9000 lb trailer easily with the factory gearing. Although I do not tow through the mountains and if i did lower gears would be needed.

Just a little feedback on my RVfurnace problem. Ended up requiring a new control board. I tried one out of my bosses motorhome and all worked good so I bought one from Campout rv in Stratford (small home town of Justin Bieber) and now the heat works again. Just wanted to say thanks to all who gave there input into this concern I had and like I stated earler I am a Ford technician for many years now specializing but not limited to diesel and would be insulted if anyone on this site had or has a Ford problem and did not ask me. You have scratched my back and I would do the same for you. Rob

Just bought Venture 2004

Wobble could be from loose steering head bearings. May require adjustment or maybe replacement. -
gear jump under acceleration

Hey unc, I think it is some type of flame sense. I have .95v coming out of it with the wire disconnected and the burner running. So i think the logical thing woild be to replace it and see what happens and if that does not fix it than it must be in the board. It wouldnt hurt to have a spare ignitor kicking around anyways. Ijust want to say thanks for your and everyone elses that had an input for me. If any of you have any questions about your FORD MOTOR COMPANY vehicle ( no wise cracks) please DO NOT hesitate to ask. ANything from technical advice to wiring diagrams as I have beem a mechanic for 24 years and 20 years at a FORD dealership specializing in the super duty but not limited to.
