Violent startup with VIDEO...

chappy · Dec 10, 2011

I've got a question guys. Is all these hard start videos with 190's lately just because of the bigger injectors being more stubborn or is it just a all 6.0 injector issue? I only ask because mie starts like a dream with stockers and I want to go to 190's but sure the hell don't want problems like you guys. Hell it was 16 degrees last night and the ruck started like a dream after sitting 15 hours.

its a typical spool valve issue, i have warren 190's and have been using 5w40 mobil 1 synthetic and rev and no issues. Starts fine even after sitting for weeks in the 30 degree weather because the trans is shot and I cant drive it.

i've had 190/75's for over 3 years and have ran nothing but 5w-40 or 5w-30 synthetic with rev-x or AR9100 oil additive and never had any stiction issues.

Alright good to know. I've had good luck with shaffer 15w40 even in these cold temps so I'm gonna go with what working.

I'm buying oil today..do I have to use motorcraft 5w-40 or can I use rotella or Mobil 1?? Ford wants $40 a gallon!

I had been running Amsoil 15w-40 forever and about 2000 miles ago switched to Amsoil 5w-40 and REALLY like it. It is a little more expensive but is good stuff. I went with it originally because I was a Mobil 1 man but when I bought my truck new in 06 Mobil 1 hadnt got their 5w-40 diesel oil to the market and I needed something so i went with Amsoil and havent looked back. I use it in everything and have nothing but great results. Now this isnt to say that other oils out there wont work as good for you but after doing my research, Amsoil seems to be the best at least for me. JMO and hope what you decide on works out for you.
