I have a 2000 and a 98.5 cummins and both are still going strong. My 2000 has 355 gears and gets 21 miles to a gallon on economy setting. The 98.5 has 410 gearing and gets 18. Did have to beef up trannys to handle 1500 hp and large fluid capacity billet fined pan to be bullet proof and installed cooler with fan motor for even more protection. Allison trannys are a great upgrade too.Lots of power even on economy setting and a blast to drive. You can easily change injectors compared to other diesel motors and they are tougher than most injectors. The engine itself is user friendly. Upgrade lift pump to fast pump and get 18 psi at idle all day and 16 on the peddle. Always run lube in your fuel for vp44 injector pump and it will last. Also a small inline filter before lift pump helps it last longer too. Always have a warning light or a fuel pressure gage to keep an eye on the lift pump so you do not damage injector pump because they are not cheap.

When dodge was in the first talks with Cummins to put their engine in a pickup, they were also making plans to include Allison transmissions in the project. They decided it would make the truck too expensive for the market though, and went forward to be known for having a weak automatic transmissions in their diesel pickups. The 6 speed standard is solid AF though

I am going to try the Lucas anti slip additive transmission fluid to see if it will help my 2003 Mustang GT. It just started slipping a few times when I start off in first gear mainly on an upgrade but one time on a level road. Thanks Scotty, I will let you know if it works. Mine has a tad over 226,000 miles on it so I expect it may actually need a transmission.

One thing you have to watch out for on the 6.7 turbo diesel is the preheater strip the bolt that holds it tight warps and falls of then it goes down the #6 piston and kills the engine . It is known as the engine killer. I have the first series 6.7 2007.5 no trouble yet but I know where to check. I am going to order the deletion kit .

In 2010 we bought a Black 2002 3/4 ton, 4 X 4 extended cab Dodge Diesel to pull our 30 foot, 13,000 pound two Harley toy hauler for $3,000! It had 185,000 miles on it. We and our married couple friends of 40 years took our Harleys to the Sturgis Bike Rally and that truck pulled that load like it wasn't even there. On the way home going over Interstate 70 west out of Denver we blew a water pump and got a tow to Glenwood springs at 3AM in the morning to a local AutoZone parking lot. After a few hours of sleep we woke up and went into the AutoZone at 8AM, bought a water pump for the Cummins, installed it in 15 minutes "with a new belt" and we were back on the road in a half an hour! That's the simple engineering of the Cummins In-Line 6 Cylinder Engine!

Hey Scotty. I would recommend getting the heavy duty ones after 2013 because they switched from the 6 speed Chrysler auto transmission to a 6 speed Aisin auto transmission. And as you know Aisin is owned by Toyota so its basically a Toyota transmission. There was also the 6 speed manual which is pretty cool.

On Chevy duramax it's about the year you get I'd only go first or second gen and only heavy duty, first gen has higher upkeep injectors inside the motor. With the second gen you need to change the high pressure fuel pump if it's still stock. And the heavy duty (aka as bush truck) is cause you can do maintenance with basic hand tools (lights, oil, ect) , newer heavy duty of most models and makes its kinda crazy what you have to do to change a head light.

Does Cummins use an Inline 6 for longevity? I know the inline is naturally balanced compared to a V. It makes sense that they would stick with the inline because they build bigger engines that need to go millions of miles.
@jeffgriffith7003
@jeffgriffith7003 Год назад
Pretty much exactly what you would think, it’s inherently balanced better. Having an engine that’s inherently balanced better is increasingly more of a necessity as the engine displacement increases since larger engine parts have more mass and inertia which can create strong vibrations.

another great video. I agree with you about the Cummings Diesel engine.. My Daddy bought one in 1995 brand new and while he wasn't happy about how much it cost, he loved the truck and was thrilled with his gas mileage. He got 528 miles on a tank of fuel no matter how much he hauled or how fast he drove it. He called me after he'd made a trip to his mountain cabin in NC shortly after buying it and after getting back home in SC ,he called to tell me that the truck would only go 83 miles per hour up the mountain. I said, "Daddy you didn't need to go that fast in the mountains!" He replied, "He just wanted to see how fast it would go!" I'm surprised he didn't get a traffic ticket. And that motor had over 500 thousand miles on it and was still going strong when he passed away. My Daddy only bought Dodge's. His first car was a Model T and it would go fairly fast and he only bought one other Ford car but he didn't keep it very long. Cummings Engine's will easily go a million miles if they're serviced regularly. Perhaps even more. We had a 61 Dodge station wagon and Daddy and Mama together had put nearly 200 thousand miles on it with a 318 and Daddy's cousin bought it and then he sold it after the odometer had tripped over 500 thousand miles and Daddy's cousin sold it to another person who drove it for at least another 100 thousand miles or more before something went wrong with it. But everyone got their money's worth. LOL..Great video!! Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us who like to be in the know about car engines . You're terrific!!Take care!!!

nice truck from what I hear although they incorporated some new emissions recycling on the newer models which Gunks up the motor something terrible... a lot my friends boast about the 98's through around 2003's but they also have had trans troubles from over doing it playing around with chips for higher horsepower output etc.. when the thing already had enough horsepower...and also from what I hear is that the fuel economy gauges are not accurate and they read like 20mpg to 24mpg when you are getting like 14 - 17mpg.

Wow I am surprised he would consider one. However he is not wrong. This is best ruck. Actually Scotty they get 20 mpg on the highway. 16/17 around town. About the same as the new half tons.

Are you sure about that 11,000 pound tow rating? I would think it would be much higher than that. Some of the F-150's are rated to tow over 13,000.

Pretty much like a Duramax hard to work on and parts are more. There is alot more moving parts to go wrong. They are cheaper to buy than one with a cummins most of the time so that can be a plus for some.
