Рет қаралды 66,779
Күн бұрынThese engines have been around long enough some trends are being seen for failures. What makes a bone stock 6.7L Powerstroke fail? Can you prevent it or is it inevitable? And what’s up with the 2020 Powerstroke pistons and rods? Cass from Choate Engineering tells us about it on this episode!

Been running 15/40 rotella since first oil change on new f450, 400,000 miles still runs as strong as it did when I first bought the truck, no problems at all.. and I use it as a hotshot truck 2017 model
@TonyLasagna Жыл бұрын
I used rotella up until 94k. Amsoil 5w/40 since. Basically stopped wearing (numerically, anyway) 17 was a good year, i think 14 was also a good year as *knocks on wood* I’m 220k in and no problems except a new vacuum pump gasket.

I love my 19 Powerstroke! Bought it new, Only 47,800 miles on her, but that engine is such a fine machine-100% stock. I am adamant about no more than 5000 miles oil changes with only Shell Rotella T6 5w40 full synthetic. I think that most guys that love the 7.3 have not ever experienced pulling with a 6.7 and it’s exhaust brake (and good beefy brakes). Not only do you have great power on the skinny pedal, but great stopping power as well. And the sound of her when she’s towing, and pulling a long hill with turbo around 15lbs of boost with cruise set at 67 mph, stays in 6th gear, using zero EGR (DEF only) it’s just a beautiful sound and experience! :)

I'm in the same boat. Drove my 03 7.3 until 2019 when I bought my 6.7 and finally sold my 7.3. Night and day difference in every way. I have 55K and it just started knocking and lost power. I immediately thought I lost an injector but the dealer scanned and contribution tests showed no compression in cylinder 5 sooooo, a bearing gave out somehow. I was running T6 and very meticulous with everything. I guess it can happen but we have to deal with it.

I own a 2015 f250 lariat 4wd w/6.7 and I have put 220K miles on it since I bought it new, The only problems I had was with ME running too much additive in the fuel, I boosted the cetane levels too high trying to keep my injectors clean and it melted the core of the DPF. With nowhere to go, the exhaust blew the intercooler boot. I had the boot replaced with an aftermarket billet part and boot and i had the DPF straight piped and the DEF disabled for $1250. I drove it for a year with the low coolant warning not knowing there are two sep radiators and when the boot blew it took the charge air cooler with it. I replaced it with a mishimoto intercooler and its been fine ever since costing $1200. Tunes are not wild but faster and more powerful than stock., Radiator popped a hole at 65K. Air conditioner fan blower dropped at 200k and cost $1100, radiator ran $1500

This is why I’m hesitant to go to a modern diesel. I switched to SCd gas in my Tundra w/zero issues in 110k miles. Despite 650 RW torque, it Doesn’t have the pulling potential of a diesel but it’s been more reliable than my older Duramax. Despite the aluminum Ford HDs being the lightest in class (1k lbs lighter than GM or Ram), modern diesel HDs are still more complicated and heavier than gas equivalent like the HD Godzilla gas 7.3. I love diesels and in stock form they make incredible power - much more than my ‘02 Duramax, but I hear more guys having expensive problems with the EGR, turbos, DPFs, and associated parts like CP4s after laying out $70k or more.

I disagree with the theory of thick oil causing spun bearing. My 2012 6.7 was ran with 10w30 from new to 120k, and 5w40 synthetic from 120k up to 273,000 when the main bearing spun and crankshaft snapped at the 1/5 rod journal. This engine was maticulously maintained, yet still failed. I installed a 2017 short block to fix it with 2015 turbo setup. I've also installed an oil priming system so the oil system is primed to 70psi until the engine is started and running.

You guys should talk to some of the 2.8 canyon/colorado owners who have had engine failure. Both tuned and stock. Injector failure on a few (apparently fixed with newer injectors) or the more destructive one, piston/wrist pin failure completely destroying the cylinder it dies in. Gm has replaced the non tuned ones, tuned guys are told to pound dirt. Despite the somewhat sizeable number of failures, nothing by gm has been mentioned as far as poor metallurgy or underlying causes causing these failures.

When he speaks of no need of tongue on the bearing he sighs right away so he’s either concerned or right out lying about it , I have observed bearings loose crash tension over time and not spin because the little bit of stability that tongue offers , inadequate oil cooler size on engine and transmission are also a concern on heavyweight duty usage .

Are use Amsoil 5W-30 in my 91.5 dodge and it does real well now I know my truck is even before the dinosaur age compared to these new ones I mean my truck is so outdated you can’t even see it on the calendar anyway but there’s one thing that doesn’t change that’s the type of oil you can use and oil filtration also air filtration on my truck. I’m running a Donaldson Oil filter bypass filter which filters down to 1 1/2 to 2 micron that would help a lot. Also my air filter, Donaldson DBA 5202. That’s a nano fiber, technology air filter. My oil filters are also nano fiber so that should greatly help your situation. My old Dodge has 520,000+ miles on it I go out in the dead of winter turn the key on and it says way to start you know the story and that engine doesn’t turn over three times and it starts right now anyway, I think the new power stroke engine has huge potential.

This is six in a row Jim again I think of a person put a Egr block off plate right where a picks up the exhaust and leave everything else intact so that way when the little goons from the EPA or somebody like that checks out your truck they don’t see that you removed anything. I don’t know if you can fool your truck without some kind of computer programming course everything Voids the warranty, so I got to be real careful about that but like I said, use that good quality bypass filter I think that will help you a lot and a good quality synthetic oil

Lighting up the rotating assembly of a diesel makes no sense? This isn’t a high performance gas engine that’s spinning 8,000 plus rpm. It’s a damn diesel that we want to be reliable not quick reving or high rpm. It going to be running 2500 rpm max and needs to make torque and hold it, a heavier rotating assembly is going to help the engine store energy so it can climb a hill better.

What's wrong with amsoil I'm a new diesel owner

@@tmonei4597 nothing is wrong with it. Mostly what’s wrong is that people that use it push it down other people’s throats so hard it’s left a bad taste. But the reality is, the film strength on the Amsoil 5W40 synthetic diesel oil is hugher than Rotella and the other popular diesel oils. Amsoil is also expensive, it was $160 for just the oil in my 2020 6.7L. But when you pay extra for the better oil it’ll pay dividends in the long run. Pentosin makes a good diesel/gas engine oil. It’s a European oil that’s made to run in both gas and diesel engines, it has a higher film strength than even the Amsoil. But... It doesn’t resist breakdown and the acids created by combustion as well as the Amsoil. So... Do your research, don’t use anything anyone “suggests” without seeing the actual data from a 3rd party tester.

Cracked heads, spun bearings, broken valves, CP4's spreading metal, turbo issues, etc. Not in my garage especially with Fords reputation with the 6.0 and 6.4's.

Oh please the 6.7 is basically bulletproof. Chevy should get out of the diesel business since they cant make their own diesel so they have to use a Japanese diesel
