Ford l9000 6v92t Detroit Diesel cold start

[@jerrykinnin7941]

I love the short nose Louisville Fords. A great truck. I drove on for a while. Its painted like an old HESS tank truck. Dad use to get me HESS toys for Christmas.

[@jamescarter1500]

Dad was a truck driver then and got them hess toys from the truck stop. Same here

[@Retired88M]

That’s how we always started the old trucks . Soon as he waited s little longer for the heat in the dry cylinders to work it started

[@dangoldbach6570]

A little rough? That sounds FINE! Maybe a couple fresh batteries but, no clattering, no galloping, no smoke after startup, that truck is a sweetheart! Just picked up a 6v92 fire pump engine with 88 hours on it I'm going to use on a 250kva genset, I am giddy looking forward to seeing it start up!! 😁

Loved the Louisville, it was the first truck 🚚 I ever drove

[@allenjanoch]

Battery's did sound weak but she still did not let you down if you can make a video of the inside I like to know how many gears it has

[@truckandtractorgarage740]

Its got 9 gears. here is a video of it from the inside kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpK0l3Rra8meb5I

[@EcoGreensFarm]

I don't think it was so much that the batteries were getting weak so much as that the starter was reaching its thermal maximum limit. I general rule of thumb when you're trying to crank a Detroit diesel in the cold is for every second that you crank the starter you should wait 3 seconds to let the starter cool down. If you crank for 30 seconds then stop and wait a minute and a half before you crank again. 👍🏼

[@lovetocrank]

Glad it started. But loved the sound of the starter while it was cranking!

[@TheOnlyPequod]

I like ford semi before they sold it to Sterling then Daimler phase it out i don't see them as much anymore the pickup is rarer.

[@Dunki113]

@@WilliamHollinger2019 judging by how ford is making their f750 it might not be long until we start seeing a ford semi again, they already opting them out with fifth wheels and airlines to pull the lighter duty semi trailers (like soda trucks) so hopefully we might see them push the bar a little more with a bigger powerstroke and possibly reach full-size semi territory one of these days.

When i was a kid i used to see, and speacially listen, lots of trucks and buses, and i loved the sound of "those trucks", i didnt know what a cuimins, Detroit, cat, etc, etc, engine was, i just knew that some trucks sounded better than others. Now, i dont see 2trokes any more and i dont know if they were good or not, i just come here and watch every Detroit diesel video that i find, so, im always asking people who drove them how good o bad were those engines.

[@the.porter.productions]

I wasn’t sure if it had the air starter or not, but I found out quickly that it doesn’t. Good start. Those Fords were quite nice looking.🤩 Was it a tractor back in the day? Looks like a short frame and it has buds on the front, too. Is that a 63 Chevy in the background? That’s nice, too.

[@truckandtractorgarage740]

It was a tractor. Truck in the background is a 1965 Chevy c30.

[@Whyismytacoblue666]

[@tank_too_godly9938]

[@truckandtractorgarage740]

Sure is!

[@AMCtilldeath]

One trick to get any diesel to fire up like it's summer, is just take a blow torch and heat up a portion of the intake for a few minutes. Save your starters and batteries.

[@robpeters5204]

That is a Ford LN series. LN was L= Louisville. N short nose. LNT was T= tandem. 8000 was for straight tuck and 9000 was tractor. I absolutely love these trucks. I’d take this over any Peterbilt or Kenworth!

[@markbroad119]

Couldn't you use gasoline in a spray bottle in place of either/starting fluid? Nice truck

[@joeschlotthauer840]

How did they start them "back in the day" with no glow plugs...

[@dangoldbach6570]

My guess, good batteries and a fast ass starter to build enough heat in the cylinders to fire!

[@truckandtractorgarage740]

Block heater

[@thegreenerthemeaner]

A fire in a metal box with a long handle on it. Fire burned down to charcoal and embers. Shove it under the oil pan and watch for flames. Get the oil warm. If it was air start, oh boy.

[@357bullfrog2]

My l 9000 I drove in the rock quarry had a 250 Cummins. Run like a daylight haint but nary a brake on it lol
