I park out past the end of the hotel so it isn't as bad for everyone to hear me wake up.. lol

Everyone at the hotel works in the patch so its not a big deal. They're getting up anyways.

This was about 2 minutes after starting and not being plugged in. Temp was -29 Celsius...

Does this mean I have to do a cold start video too?

Yup but we need the initial start...ostwhore2:

well...my six four started a he!l of a lot easier than my six seven does. Never a lope no matter how cold it was. Any cold start issues on that were because of how much the pistons were machined...so ya-seems weird the newer trucks are worse.

mine has never had a lope on cold start.. been well below zero many times and fires up and purrs like a kitten.. I also treat the fuel with full torque from LE and jimdawg185.. all of our machinery at work starts better with it and less smoke output in the cold..

I dont care about cold starts. Just put a vid up for sh1ts and giggles.

It starts, it warms up, I go to work. The End.

Probably starts worse partly due to a lower compression ration. 6.4 is 17.5:1 and the 6.7 is 16.2:1

you need a veins open tune .

Not sure how well that would work warming up, up here, Mike

Not worth a chit for me since I got it put into my tune. I sure do like how quiet it is though at an idle...

Ya no beuno with open vanes for warming up. Lopes/smokes for longer and tales longer to warm up

 

[forcefed6.4ford]

I work out of my truck too much. I would be a whiny cry baby if the truck couldnt hold heat.

 

[Pwnm30rdi3]

I second that. If I'm outside working in below zero temps I'm complaining all day. Even if I have 4 layers on...

i was referring to the cool factor, chris . LOL

 

[forcefed6.4ford]

Cold and cool in one master stroke LOL

So having the veins closed will keep more heat in the motor with no side effects? My truck cools off REALLY fast at idle up here.
