The Power Stroke Diesel was invented by Ford Motor in 1982. The Ford Motor Company wanted their pickups to be the best selling vehicles. The Diesel Power Magazine ranked the Power Stroke Diesel as one of the top ten engines.
The Ford power stroke 7.3L diesel is one of the most reliable engines in production. Many will perform well over 500,000 miles.
No, Ford has never used Cummins diesel engines in their trucks. Ford typically uses its own Power Stroke diesel engines in its Super Duty and other truck models. Cummins engines are primarily associated with Dodge Ram trucks, which have featured Cummins engines for many years. Ford's rivalry with Dodge has led to the use of their own proprietary diesel technology instead.
as with all engines, the cylanders are located in the engine block
Diesel engines are EXTREMELY durable. With proper maintenance, I would fully expect to get 400,000 miles from a power stroke ford. Possibly more depending on how it is driven. Hope this helps. Mike
where is the crank sensor located on a 6.0l ford power stroke diesel
very large is the keyword here. for a very large engines that runs large machines, we need high power engines. two-strike cycle engines produce more power than 4-stroke cycle engines. that's why they are used. as they produce more pollution than 4-strokes, they must be limited to small spaced engines machines or large machines that required very high power.
In a diesel engine, air is compressed to a high pressure and temperature during the compression stroke. This high compression is necessary because it raises the air temperature to a point where it can ignite the diesel fuel injected into the cylinder. The resulting combustion generates the power needed to drive the engine. This process is key to the efficiency and power output of diesel engines compared to gasoline engines.
The 2003-2007 Ford F-250 with the Power Stroke Diesel Engine has 325 horse power.
In diesel engine fuel to power ratio is 1:50
you cant turn a 2 stroke into a four stroke. and i don't think you can run diesel in a 2 stroke
There are a couple, less parts for one therefore lighter. Also, 2 stroke engines fire every time the piston comes to the top. Which means every stroke is a power stroke. 4 stroke engines fire every other time.
