1986 Dodge Ram D150 225 Slant Six Rainy Cold Start

[@traincrazykid1917]

Man I got to tell you, starting up A 70s or 80s pickup is like waking up a sleeping monster

[@jjeremy350]

Yeah we definitely need more cold starts like this that was huge fight

[@TheTerminator310]

Man, she starts rough! I have an '85 D100 with a slant six and she starts right away. Nice truck, though! These engines will run forever.

[@vccranker]

Great stuff.. I needed this! Really like the slow but steady cranking in the beginning.. The denim looks good on you too.. love the camera angle.. feel like I'm right there trying it with you! : D Pumped up here now, thanks to you!!

[@TheOldcarlover]

I like this old truck!!♥️

[@jacquespoirier9071]

your engine is due for a serious tune up, I've had and maintained many slants and they always started at the first or second starter call.

[@richmondproductions2914]

Jacques Poirier Pretty sure it’s just a gummed up carb. I’ve upgraded to a 4x4 440 dodge. Expect a new video about it.

"Cmon bitch" 1:00 lol

[@oldgreen100]

You have a great battery 😆

[@jjeremy350]

Wow I ran across this video this is a good cold start

[@gearhead9943]

Love those boots. Would love to see if you could get it started with no choke.

[@balboahigh1999]

his boots are hot

[@fendtfarmer3605]

I Love this Video and your truck

[@CaptianNamco]

Wow almost killed the battery but it started great video

[@dilloboi]

We are pretty sneaky 😉

[@CM79150]

Love the truck! Try a cold start without choke

[@fendtfarmer3605]

i love your Truck

[@robinprice4877]

How long did it take to start in freezing cold weather with ice and snow and it hadn't been used for several days?

[@glenfoltz6760]

Hey I like this video I subscribed to your channel keep up the good work and make more videos like this

[@walterbatman7949]

Notice it actually says Dodge this is a Dodge truck This was about the end of the slant 6 then they went to a 3.6 or 3.9 V6 if I recall correctly

[@robinprice4877]

When you hadn't used it for a week would it usually take longer to start in really wet weather or was it more difficult in the freezing cold?

[@richmondproductions2914]

both, better since the carb rebuild

[@floodedcaddy]

Great video! I love the 70s and 80s Dodge trucks. Hope you'll make another cold start up video....maybe in a pair of your uniform boots..? ::))

[@ericshinault3628]

You're pedal happy. Flooding the fuck out of it.

[@gearhead9943]

Please make more!!!

[@cantstartit]

Great video

[@L33CHW33D]

So being the year 2022 and I never actually owned a carbureted engine and this truck is the same age as me working on a farm. We use ether when the tractors are cold and they start up with very little issue. Would there be no benefit to popping one owned a vehicle like this and in a cold day. Just giving in a quick shot at ether to get it going and would that keep it going and get the fuel moving? Assuming that there's no actual problems with the vehicle, it's just cold.

[@richmondproductions2914]

the choke kept popping open and it needed a carb rebuild at that time

[@hankbridges5055]

A Chrysler 1945 carburetor can be replaced by a Ford 1946. The Ford carburetor has the choke on the top of the carburetor. The bodies are the same. They use the same kit. Hold the gas pedal down while cranking.

[@richmondproductions2914]

Hank Bridges That’s not how my carb works.

[@hankbridges5055]

@@richmondproductions2914 Slant 6 used different carbs. A 1983 Dodge Ram 225 used a 1945 and could use a 1946. It had hydraulic lifters. I wonder if a truck slant 6 is interchangable with a car slant 6?

[@labellamaffia]

Omg yes 😍😍

[@arkham113]

Great video bud and I like those boots!!!! Would love to see you do a driving / brake pumping video in the truck with those boots. I’m into both left foot and right foot brake pumping

[@jjeremy350]

You still have this truck?

[@nathanpeck5155]

What the hell is wrong with you people. Just let the man start his truck in peace 😂

[@jjeremy350]

Are you gonna do more cold starts on this beast?

[@richmondproductions2914]

Maybe, I’m going to turn it into a little hot rod slant six truck. I have other 1st gen dodges with v8s so I can afford to play with this one.

[@jjeremy350]

[@grindsoul]

switch out your blower motor resistor so you can control the blower motor to actually get higher speeds. its cheap and easy

[@littlefarmtosee4709]

Funniest video ever LoL is like trying to sit in to a wild 🐎

[@Thinker669]

Sounds it says "Leave me aloooooooonnnnnnnneeeeeee............"

[@lovetocrank]

Oh man, I love that!

[@carwrtr1]

Why does this have a manual choke? With no disrespect to anyone, but if one kept their vehicle (including the carburetor) serviced, it would start on the first attempt. It looks like you flooded it; I’d get that carburetor addressed. With no disrespect to anyone, a car will let any wise guy operate it or work on it…

How many miles are on it? I've got an 81 with the ol slant with 147 on it

[@richmondproductions2914]

Luke Arndor The odometer reads about 30k, the previous owner says it has 300k. Must have rolled over.
