The ideal operating temperature for a 6.5 turbo diesel engine typically ranges between 180°F to 210°F (82°C to 99°C). Maintaining this temperature ensures optimal performance and efficiency while preventing overheating. It's important to monitor the temperature closely, especially under heavy load or during towing, to avoid potential engine damage. Using a reliable gauge can help keep track of engine temperature effectively.

The sensors are not there I dont think. You will have to get them from a Turbo Diesel engine and prob fit the sensors. ALOT OF HASSLE! Its not worth it. You could buy a turbo diesel 205 lump and fit that with the wiring loom? Still lots of work. I fitted the engine but not the loom and dont mind that I dont have a rev counter.
It is possible to convert you N/A diesel to a Turbo Diesel, but it won't be cheap. The gains you get for the money arn't really worth the cost. The only exception is if you can find a wrecked 300D with a turbo and scavenge the turbo and associated hardware off it. If you need more info please ask. I and doesn't disappoint you too much. As I understand it the turbo engine is updated with high temp valves and a hardened and/or oversized crank to handle the increased engine torque and combustion temps. I would recommend to just find a decent turbo engine and swap the whole thing. I hear you can find them for as low as $500 sometimes.
An engine might sound like a diesel at operating temperature if the engine was a diesel or if there was an issue with the manifold. Sometimes gases escaping the manifold cover could cause the engine to sound different.
put in more coolant but its not running hot
Actually in CI engine,we use Diesel as a fuel and diesel burn at lower temp than petrol and also at constant temp, so for obtaining desirable temp we are working at constant pressure. And inject the fuel on compressed air at constant pressure.
Over loaded engine, excessive fuel injected, injection timing improper,
A safe turbo exhaust temperature for a Ford 6.0 diesel engine typically ranges between 1,200°F to 1,400°F (649°C to 760°C). Exceeding this range can lead to turbocharger damage and increased wear on engine components. It's essential to monitor exhaust temperatures closely, especially during heavy towing or high-performance driving. Regular maintenance and proper tuning can help ensure safe operating temperatures.

should be in the middle of the temp guage.
it controls the time the glow plugs are on up to 120 seconds depending on temp and other information recived from the pcm
I think it's on the oil filter housing. Olliver
