Detroit Diesel Cold Start

I respond the same way to the cold

Gotta love the DISTINCT SOUND of a DETROIT DIESEL ENGINE

[@LacroixCruiser]

Yes

[@jeromejones5174]

It's the most iconic sound ever ❤❤❤❤❤❤ My favorite engine...

[@bingbing-ti2rv]

Once the misfires & rattling stopped and those 6 cylinders started popping together , it immediately transformed into a sweet music to my hears. Gosh I could listen this engine run at idle for hours ! I just love that big ol' diesel truck sound, these low RPMs, mechanical injectors noises, puffs of smokes outta the exhaust, raw power, damn Tesla drivers r really missing something.

[@LacroixCruiser]

Agreed

This how I wake up the morning. 😅

Very nice video, I read your comments and learned that it is designed to start this way cold. Very interesting thank you

Nice Cold Start!

Thank you

I love the noise

[@LacroixCruiser]

It’s got a nice ring to it.

[@Mr.Mopar.23-7]

Old school diesel, they all started this way when cold. No dpf, no def, no computer control. They were reliable, more like bulletproof. Then big government got involved. Now the big money involving trucking is in towing. Invest half million in a tow rig, you'll be very busy.

[@chainsaw6085]

That engine is electronically controlled witch is harder to start than my 1990 mechanical cat starts easier than this thing does

[@LacroixCruiser]

It starts easy, it’s designed to start this way.

[@Cosigner22]

Half a million? Low balling a little

[@gabreno8670]

It’s not designed to start this way 😅 surely your engine is old but you got a fuel problem buddy 😂 … imagine if they sold them new and they would say it’s start like that when cold … cool video by the way😊

[@Mr.Mopar.23-7]

@gabreno8670 Around 0* Fahrenheit, they all used to start this way. "100% mechanical." Some without a little ether wouldn't start at all. I still own two VE pumped 6BT Cummins. I don't have to be anywhere any longer, but if I did and it was cold out, say around that temperature, I would expect the exact results of this cold start video. New trucks all start easily.

[@TheUkrainianJew]

That's so badass

[@LacroixCruiser]

Thank you.

[@scottberry5266]

That’s kinda tame compared to my series 60 when it’s cold. I’ve got 8” straight pipes and when it fires on a 0* day it scares people away.

[@LacroixCruiser]

I would love to hear that!

[@therealbadbob2201]

Sounds like my old cold blooded power wagon.

[@LacroixCruiser]

Cold starts are never pleasant.

[@Sukisunn]

They are hearty motors.

[@LacroixCruiser]

Yes they are.

[@RyansVideoGames]

60 series Detroits are in my opinion the best engines Detroit made

[@LacroixCruiser]

Not the worst that’s for sure

I'm about to get an old White with a 6V-92TTA. Hopefully it is good... Once, I saw an old govt owned semi with a 2 stroke.... it sat at 25F for a while, cold soaked. Started right up.... not even plugged in or under cover...

[@LacroixCruiser]

Detroit make a robust engine.

[@MAGA-Chad]

Not fond of these two stroke engines but man that's pretty impressive for a Detroit.

[@LacroixCruiser]

This is a 4 stroke series 60

[@MAGA-Chad]

@@LacroixCruiser Lmao guess I got thrown off by the idle once all cylinders started firing. My bad, dude.

[@baul104]

This MCI 102DL3 bus has the Detroit Diesel Series 60 engine.

[@LacroixCruiser]

Correct

[@MrTheHillfolk]

Lol wat🤣🤣🤣this wasn't even a good start for an old 2 stroker Detroit much less a 60 😬 Shes hit 😕

[@LacroixCruiser]

When it’s cold, it’s programmed to start this way.

[@billweise1928]

Thats really weird to me because mine starts right up with almost no smoke down to 10 degrees fahrenheit. I wonder if i have a different tune. Even at colder temps she lights off reasonably quickly. I do alot of work for Detroit Diesel. Ill have to ask them what the difference is.

[@LacroixCruiser]

We were told by a mechanic at Detroit diesel that this was normal . This was well under zero

[@LacroixCruiser]

lol

[@adik9441]

What advantages it have by starting on 2 cyl , is starter motors inadequate As two cylinders reduces the probability of firing in cylinder

[@LacroixCruiser]

No idea

[@benjamincresswell3713]

That engine must be quite worn out. Befor I went to work for GM testing Detroit's for compliance with EPA emission standards, I saw them in Awry Bakery trucks. Back then they had an ether "pellet" to use on cold days. Later I saw Cummins 250's that had a can of ether mounted right on the engine for cold starts. I can tell you that if this was a normal starting 6/71 when I was testing, it would not be certified for sale. But, I am a purist at heart, that is not pollution, it's unburned Diesel fuel and maybe engine oil, not the same as a gasoline Hydro Carbon, Co or Nox emission at all. Most of it is particulate and it falls out of the air to the ground. I personally would keep using it if it clears up after it gets hot hot hot, and I'd use starting fluid and maybe even propane to get it up and running on cold days. But, that sound!!! Somewhere on youtube there are two trucks that someone recorded as they drove by, one is a 4 cycle and the other a Detroit 2 cycle. There is no comparison in sound, the 4 cycles sound like Helicopter flying by with it's chop chop chop, then comes the Detroit, M M M M M M M. It's really amazing when you hear them one after the other like in that video. I'll take the Detroit anytime and twice on Sunday over the 4 cycle chop chop chop, even if it did smoke. But, I tested them against a dyno for emission certification, so I have a special place for that sound in my heart. Thanks GM for allowing me to run your awesome prestigious Detroit's at the Milford Proving Ground Vehicle Emission Laboratory VEL, bldg. 31, it was a blast and I'll never forget it. ben/ michigan

[@LacroixCruiser]

It’s programed to start this way, this is a series 60 4 stroke, but a 2 stroke has an unforgettable music at 2000 rpm

[@jeffearnest3269]

When is the last time you changed fuel filter ? / air filter ? You are supposed to keep them clean at all times you know for better fuel economy.

[@LacroixCruiser]

Fuel and oil filters get changed every 10,000 miles, air filter is inspected regularly and changed as needed.

[@kimiZZZumi]

it's designed to start with two and after few seconds the rest kicks in

[@rey5597]

What makes you think they haven’t?

[@maxofer9354]

Why 2 then 4 then 6? Is that just the character of this particular engine or all Detroits when cold?
