Agreed. It's always fun to hear them run!

For removing the injector harness clips from the valve cover assy i usually just use a 19mm shallow 12 pt socket, works just as well as the tool

I think these are the weirdest trucks. It's basically a F-series chassis, with an International engine and a Mazda cab. Too bad the great recession killed them. Seems like a decent rig.

Not really. They’re complete dogs. Imagine the same awesome reliability as a 6.0, but with two cylinders chopped off, and a funky twin turbo system that still has tons of lag like the 6.0. And the trans is the same as a F350. Thing can barely get out of its own way.

Because I had tighten the cap a little more than the 14 nm! I ended up heating up a flat blade screwdriver & 5# sledgehammer to chiseled 2 out 3 sections off before I could use the screwdriver & hammer to turn the cap off. Then methodically cleaned the bowl out of all the little bits of plastic. I couldn’t get the banjo bolt off the fuel line. Lesson learned!

I prefer “placeholder plug”. “Dummy plug” gives the poor thing a complex and they give up and leak. I always huff gasoline on a rag when I start these after HPOP draining repairs. Not me, but the engine. It’ll halfway run on those vapors and shortens crank time and starter load. I did the same back in the IDI 6.9/7.3 days. That line bleeding crap on the mechanical injection engines is BS.

Really all the nightmares can be traced all the way to International Navistar as the Maxxforce Series was also a garbage motor which basically destroyed their reputation. The 6.4 was a Maxxforce 7 engine. Though the 6.4 used a Sequential Turbo the Maxxforce 7 had a single VGT so I don't think it had the same turbo issues as the 6.4. Same with the 4.5 you see there it uses a Sequential twin Turbo like the 6.4 instead of a single one like the bigger 6.0
