Greetings, all!
I am asking this in the Winnie Forum mainly because I am seriously looking at a couple of Minnie Winnie 29s. Both have the Ford V10 engine in them.
I've heard from no less than three mechanics (one of them Ford) that the V10 engine has a problem with soft heads and has a tendency to spit out spark plugs. This is a condition that is not acceptable. I tried to ask over at www.ford-trucks.com and they wanted money out of me just to ask a question!
Have any of you heard about this? Could it have only been for a particular model year?
Also, what are the good and bad about the Minnie Winnie 29, such as a certain part always failing on a certain year?
I plan to tow my 3000 lb 4WD behind it.
TIA,
Jayne
