An In Frame that turned into an out of Frame
zhlédnutí 318Před 5 měsíci
We started on an inframe, but decided to pull to better build the engine and be able to test run on a stand.
Modern injection (CP4) vs antique injection (PLM).

I hope this helps explain the differences and helps understand the shortcomings of modern injection.

Best Skid steer of 2023. (mechanics opinion)
Lets see it pull the hill like the video you made for the 7.3 gas. Also how's your 2 7.3s doing?
Guys, what's the big deal ? Ford has been making big gas engines for decades, lots of torque? In 1980 I bought a 79 F-350 with a swapped out 460 in it, that's 7.5 for you metric guys , 4 speed, 4x4. It would pull anything I hooked on to , anywhere I wanted to go, would pass anything but a gas station. My last 460 was in 1986, switched to Cummings in a less desirable truck, but made the best of it in 93. Still have my old ones with gas, and 05 is my newest Cummins. Cannot stomach a new truck price
Love the old Pete
Make more videos!!
What kind of ones do you want more of?
Needs to use blocks to double or triple pulling power
I was struggling for an hour until this man saved my ass. So close to buying new calipers... thank you kind sir.
Saved my ass, thanks for taking the time to post this. Have been pondering this problem for about an hour. Many thanks!
Gota agree. I have a '12 6.2 F250 that isn't super powerful but bulletproof. The only diesel I still own is a '09 Pre DEF Benz E Class Sedan. Every other vehicle a gasser.
FDT
Any explanation why the tank capacity is 34 gals but I can only seem to put in 29-30 gals on a fill up? I have ran it empty once, and still not able to fill to capacity
Is there a Twin turbo kit /bulletproof kit for the 6.2?
Not that I'm aware of
516?
The 855 came out in1960
GM and ford built that transmission together hoss
No, the smaller 10 speed was co developed the 10r is ford
I took mine up the mountain and i was on the floor all the way up never broke 190 idk how
It takes horsepower to create heat lol.
@@ColtWR it also never broke 25 mph up hill
Put a turbo on it
A properly tuned IDI with no air intrusions, a healthy glow plug system, and a healthy starter/battery cables will start in below freezing conditions as reliably as anything else.
Trump 2024!
Cummins quickserve will tell ya the CPL. The ESN should be on the drivers side at the back of the engine
I've had two 6.7 powerstrokes and a 7.3 powerstroke. I do dirt work and haul scrap metal for side work so I can't really justify a diesel. I haul an Amish framing crew for my regular job and for that I use a half ton suburban. I think these trucks would be a good choice for hauling a skid steer or some scrap metal 3 or 4 times a month. Super excited about going to look at one.
genius
Great review! Would you recommend it for 16.5k total weight trailer and truck I’ll be pulling? Goose neck pull
Absolutely
You are far too logical for a man your age 😂. The future will be fine with men like you!
Thank you!
Ford did that
Hey I might have missed it in the video, but what gears you think would help what little engine braking these gas engines have towing downhill?
4.30
What vehicle is that?
A large tree grinder
Do you have any advice for getting old trucks to pass? I've been told you can pass any vehicle if you put enough time/money into it.
Good spark plugs and up to temperature catalytic converters. Make a hard highway run before the test.
I believe that something that always gets overlooked is reverse gearing. For heavy towing, you need the lower gearing because when backing you will always be trying to get over some obstacle.
Do you just go around to various videos to copy_paste this comment or what?
@@johnlocke_1 No, I have being towing for over fifty years and know what works.
@harveypaxton1232 ok boomer.
Mine says 5w20? Edit: Just checked my Chiltons manual and it says 2015 and before 5w20, and mine is a 2015. Would you at all recommend going to 5w30 for this truck, or where there some changes made in the engine starting in 2016 that I am unaware of. Thank you. Edit: I saw some other comments about the oil and Im going to run the Amsoil 5w20 I already bought but will probably go ahead and switch over to 5w30 in the future. It
Yep the recommended ambient temperature for 5-20 is too low for most cases
The 7.3 is a joke. When my brother bought his truck he was excited. It was rated for more power and torque than my 8.1 in my 04 chevy. It's a dog. It's gutless. I would t tow with it, because it struggles so much. He says as soon as the truck is paid off he's getting rid of it. That's what I know about the 7.3... my 20 year old truck with an 8.1 outperforms it in every metric other than mpg. They are about the same.
Low profile M/Ts on a truck make me giggle.😂
What oil filter did you use after you increased oil weight?
Same as usual
You damn near lifted it up off the back axle when you were loading it onto the trailer.
Common practice around here lol
Don't let dot catch you. You cant have anything spilling past the trailer and any bucket on a machine has to be secured
There’s a reason everyone compares everything to a cat. I was a cummins guy until I drove a cat. And I’m not talking about 80k. Doesn’t take much to pull that. Once you get close to 100k on the daily the truth comes out.
I gross 125k and have grossed 150k many times with my cummins. Runs up the hills just fine lol
@@ColtWR everyone who has actually done that knows your lying
@@user-qt8zt6zg6w yep made that story up. Lolz
2 motors and that is the Ford 5.0 and the ford 6.2. Outstandingly reliable for gas motors
My cat does that
2020 f250 XL 6.2 regular cab with 120k miles, goal is 300k out of this by 2030.

Just curious about the outcome of the oil weight change? I have an 09 f-150 5.4 Triton that may have cam phaser issues. Mine only seems to do it when I am in a very low speed after being warmed up. Such as maneuvering around the yard to back up to a trailer, or backing up a trailer slowly. I really don't hear it just sitting idle or coming up to a stop sign. So I am thinking of this 15w-40 oil change with Lucas
If it is slight noise try just 15-40 if it is still there then add Lucas.
I have a 7.3IDI in an ambulance camper (89 E350) and I appreciate all the info I can get about maintenance and operation. It’s a great engine!
Sombody please help me I have a 2008 F150 with bad rattling at idle or slow down speeds. I have put 2,800 in to it trying to fix it with no results! Worst part is the truck only has 56,000 miles on it I have no idea where to go from here. Thank you
Update after watching this video I dumped and entire bottle of sea foam Truck & SUV formula in to my crank case and drove my truck in trailer haul mode “so the over drive was off so the engine would have to work harder” for about 80 miles I set my trip and just went for it. Now don’t do what I did just because of some random CZcams comment but after a year long battle I think it’s fixed. I immediately changed my oil and bumped her up from 5-w20 to 5-w30 and she has never ran better since I’ve owned her. Also a lot of what I assume were built up sludge clumps came out at the very end when I was draining the oil. I’ll let you know if I have any other problems but I don’t daily drive it it’s just used to pull toys
Glad to hear!
@@ColtWR didn’t work long term. I don’t daily drive my truck so although this is important because I need my truck, this is more of a “get around to it” when I’m available project.
@@ColtWR I’m gonna try 5W-40 coming up soon. It’s eco diesel oil. I’ll let y’all know how it goes.
@@ColtWR I for got to add… the 5W-30 works fine if you add a little Lucas but I wanna try to find an oil I can use with out adding Lucas to it. I don’t have any against Lucas I just wanna simplify things.
Not All Heros Wear Capes, Get this man a few beers.
Glad this helped lol
Holy shit. I would have been here all day. What a shity design. Fuck these new cars
I have a 86 for F250 6.9 that’s been sitting for about 2 years, and I was wondering is there anything I should be concerned about after sitting this long? I already drained the old fuel and put new in before starting it. Thanks
Not in particular. Fire we up and see what leaks
Everything?
Any new updates on the white single cab 7.3. is ot still running?
Still running great
I love it!! My 7.3 has been a rock star with my camper and no issues 40000 miles
Where did you get the cat wrenches?
You can find the part numbers online. Then call them into the parts department at your local dealer
I’ve owned and ran all brands. Personally at the end of the day my money goes to the Taks. They just run. and push like a small dozer. The true pilot controls in the Takeuchi machines cannot be beat. Effortless in comparison to the other brands. No sensitivity adjustments. Just simple.
