bleed fuel line ford diesel 250 pickup 2005 how does one bleed the fuel lines in that truck ?
I have a 2010 ford regular cab pickup, 4x4 diesel and I get 11.9 mpg. daily driving with no load in it.
No, the first tubro-diesel pickup that Ford released (in the F series) was in 1995. you could get a turbo powered diesel from ford as early as 93. in 94 international began butting them on at the factory.
The 2009 Ford F250 6.4 liter diesel pickup truck has a listed towing capacity of 8500 pounds. The manufacturer recommends that you do not exceed the towing capacity.
depends on setup but 14-20mpg range is about normal
Here's a few million mile pickup truck diesel engines - - - 7.3L IDI International (Ford), 6.9L IDI International (Ford), 7.3L Powerstroke Turbo Diesel (Ford), and the 5.9L Cummins I-6 engine (Dodge.) Of the newest diesel engines offered in the Big 3 trucks, I'd say #1 is the 6.7L Powerstroke Diesel, #2 6.6L Duramax, #3 6.7L Cummins.
Diesel engines were not a factory option until the late 70s, so if you find a 60s pickup with a diesel, it has been switched after it left the factory. Installing a diesel engine in a 60s model Ford pickup would not be the easiest conversion, but it could be done. Motor mounts would probably have to be fabricated, and you would probably have to change out the transmission, also. Best to find an engine/transmission combination that has already been proven to work together. The other consideration is finding a diesel engine with the horsepower and torque necessary for the truck.
It has a compression ratio of 17.5:1
I was looking at the Ford parts website and it shows : For a 1984 Ford F-250 : ( the 6.9 liter / 420 cubic inch / 8 cylinder diesel engine was available )
wiring diagram can be found in a haines or chilton 1984 ford pickup shop manuel.these books cost about 15 bucks to buy
