  • @tyl3r2695 well so 

  • @TheGtaexperts1 um well 1500's arent diesel

    

  • @TheGtaexperts1 It is funny because on the last video i watched (39 degrees "cold start") you said the same thing, but it was only -5 degrees. Now on this video it is -15 degrees. Hmmmm.....

  • hhaa thats nothing my dad started his 05 silverado 1500 this morning when it was -15 degrees not plugged in at all

  • thats almost exactly what mine sounds like when i fire it up.

  • @big99diesel its their not there hot shot

  • @tpvalley diesel starts gelling in the high 20 degrees so below freezing just buy diesel antigel just in case most gas stations already have it in the fuel but the stuff is pretty crappy wont hurt to add your own I get mine from rolling big power does well for me upped my horse power and my fuel economy to

    Haha, another fanboy. Just about every automaker has at least one excellent engine, including dodge. Just about every engine made these days is bulletproof. Honda makes excellent small engines and 4 bangers. For a V6, you can't beat Nissan or Toyota. For an I6, you can't beat BMW, All of the big three and toyota have excellent V8 and diesel truck motors these days. Even Hyundai has a great V8 that's winning accolades.

    What you said is only partially true. The powerstoke has HEUI fuel injection. It uses high pressure motor oil to fire the injectors. When the oil cold and thick, the HPOP doesn't raise the pressure as quickly or as high and the "romps" are the result. 10w-30 or 5w-40 oil solves this problem.

  • I live in AK and my trunk used to have the romps like that on cold starts until I used Rotella T6 5w-40. Night and day difference.
