      Ford didn't have much of a choice because of stupid emissions regulations which is why they started using the 6.0. international would have had to redesign the 7.3 so they just went ahead and designed a new engine. at least the 6.7 is as close to the same design 7.3 as you can get now days!

      My 6.0L Ford's wont start in +5f unless plugged in, my Duramax's will both start -17f unplugged, not recommended mind you. I would love an old 7.3L again. I had a 93 non-turbo and a 97 turbo, trucks rotted to the ground around the drive-train over the years though so they are gone. Over 525,000 km on the 93 when I took it off the road. Never have tried a Dodge, I hope the Cummins in those trucks work better than the ISX motors in the Class 8's, most of those problems are DEF related though.

    Very nice! I love that sounds of a 7.3. Sounds incredible on startup for a cold start. My wife is trying to make me put stacks in the bed of my '99 7.3 but I just can't bring myself to spend the money on it right now. Just put $500 into very necessary ball joints and brake pads yesterday. I know that's nothing, but it's still money. Next up will be a new paint job!

    • @velvetthunder96
      @velvetthunder96 7 років тому +2

      Collin Kreider well the exhaust valve is closed when the engine is not running/firing so water can't go in the engine. And as soon as it opens the explosion in the cylinder evaporates the water that wants to run down in it. Correct me if I'm wrong

      The older diesels are getting harder to come by.... you will only find newer diesels like 2000 and up. It took me three years, a lot of saving and searching to find one of the Old School Turbo diesels. believe me save, save,save... once you get a diesel don't get rid of it.

      Wenn ich VW wäre, dann hätte ich denen KEINEN Cent bezahlt, wenn man es dort zulässt, dass Pickups ohne DPF rumfahren dürfen!
      Ich hätte die Autos zurückgekauft und mich vom Amerikanischen Markt verabschiedet.
      Andererseits hätte ich unsere Regierung dazu genötigt alle in DE verkauften, Chevy, Dodge und was sonst immer solchen Untersuchungen zu unterziehen, die zu 100% positiv ausfielen und die dort vom Markt verdrängt, das kein US Auto hier in DE mehr verkauft wird.

    You get no benefit from not starting it immediately after the WTS light turns off, as the glowplugs turn off with the WTS light. In fact by waiting, you're letting it cool down, if you want it warmer you need to cycle them on again.
