Talk:Ford Power Stroke engine

The in-direct injection 7.3 liter engine ran all the way into 1997. Then Ford went to the 7.3 liter direct injection Power Stroke. In 1994 Ford omitted the option for the turbocharger and made it standard. Then they deemed it the "Power Stroke"

7.3 Liter, Rest In Peace.

Is it 6.3 or 6.4 for the latest Power Stroke engine?

444 cu in

I edited several places where the displacement on the 7.3L was listed as other than 444 cu in. It is a 444 cu in or a 7.27l engine. 7.3l is a rounded number. Don't add accuracy converting back that's not there15.243.169.71 22:42, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

The Power Stroke is *NOT* based on the only IH Gasser. There are two distinctive lines of enignes, the IDI and the Power Stroke, there was the 6.9 and 7.3 IDIs, they were the ones based on the gas engine, they were indirect injection, using pre-chambers connected to the main compression chamber, and had mechanical injection. In 1994.5 the IDIs were discontinued and replaced with the PowerStroke, which is an electronic direct injection diesel. The 7.3 Power stroke shares very little with the IDI. The only thing that is the same between them is the displacement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.209.41.56 (talk) 01:26, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Inaccurate Application Information(prank)

'F bullshit dodge will beat this with the cat they is switchin to yeehaw go dodge ram diesel power'

Real mature, asshole. Quit acting like a 3 year old on a technical website and go play your nintendo. What makes you think anybody is going to respect Dodge after seeing that? Are you trying to make the rest of them look as dumb as you?

PSD != 7.3 IDI

The 7.3 PowerStroke is not related to the 7.3L IDI in any way shape or form. NOTHING will interchange between the two. Calling the 7.3 PSD a 7.3 IDI with direct injection is just completely false. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.250.2.26 (talk) 21:14, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Added Some Key Information

Just added a few key specs for the 7.3, 6.0, and 6.4 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.250.212.55 (talk) 01:58, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

6.0

I added "due to Ford software" as it was implied that the software running this engine was in fact Navistar. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.236.33.74 (talk) 05:25, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Also removed snippet about "cannot conform to 2007 emission standards" or something like that as it was retarded. Diesel Particulate Filters were added to ALL 2007 year diesel engines and NO engine in the milky way can conform without a DPF due to particulate matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.236.33.74 (talk) 05:48, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

The 6.0L in the e-series does not have a DPF. They meet EPA requirements with emissions credits. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.6.247.204 (talk) 13:48, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Also in the future I am going to remove the part about bypassing the EGR as it is illegal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.236.33.74 (talk) 05:51, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

2000 Ford 250 turbo 7.3

Having trouble in cold temps (usually <32 degrees overnight) hard to start. All glow plugs are good. Its takes me 5-10 minutes to finally start. Any suggestions? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.98.195.66 (talk) 12:00, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

ford 6.0 deisel anti filters

What can you use on 6.0 deisel to prevent engine problems? larry —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.94.17.152 (talk) 16:35, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Use only Motorcraft oil and fuel filters, and get a fuel pressure gauge to make sure base fuel pressure stays at or above above spec. TheBalance (talk) 03:37, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

6.7 Ford Diesel.

6.7 Ford diesel is made by Ford not Cummins. Not sure what give with all the edits claiming otherwise. However I'm guessing this might have something to do with a group of people that claim Ford owns Cummins along with other false beliefs. So FYI everyone, crazies will continue to edit this page. --Dana60Cummins (talk) 21:02, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

It also might have something to do with the fact that the new ISB just happens to be a 6.7 liter as well, but that's just another guess. --Dana60Cummins (talk) 21:03, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

I've requested temporary semi-protection to put a stop to all this vandalism and revert warring by IPs. --Sable232 (talk) 01:31, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

It needs it so does Ford Super Duty.--Dana60Cummins (talk) 15:30, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

I added in an edit to the 6.7l section. Recently ford updated the engine with a software update and the offical stats are now 400 hp and 800 ft-lbs of torque. Not sure if I should delte the orignal stats but I posted the new ones under them along with some information.
