Tonys F250 EP1: Dyno Tunning

Here Something different, This is Tonys f250 powered by a mwm 4.2 turbo diesel 6. i upgraded the turbo and street tuned this truck years ago but the "stars aligned" and i was able to throw it on the dyno and try and squeeze some more power out of it.

[@bluechevycummins5738]

It’s the 6bt Cummins engine of Brazil. Even tho they make Cummins parts there the mwm is the common engine in the f250 and 90s chevy trucks.

[@RedsProjects]

Yeah i see a lot of videos of them in Brazil. Its a shame there isnt more of them around over here and in America

[@bluechevycummins5738]

I agree what does that one rev out to? Seems like they rev up to the 4-5k rpm?

[@RedsProjects]

@@bluechevycummins5738 looking at the dyno graphs it looks like i was reving it to 4000/4200, which is a little lower then say a td42, but thats all in the pump.

[@fields4488]

100% sure we don’t have this in the states

[@WARD5KUSTOMZ]

I hate that they aren't available in America. Id love to swap one in my f150

[@AmauriPaesdeCastro]

Wow, a mwm in Australia. This confirms what I had already heard. Which Ford Brazil exported to some countries. Mwm Sprint Here is a very respected engine. There was also a 2.8L 4cyl version used in Chevrolet, Nissan pickups, minibuses and some small VW trucks. The video below shows the vehicles in which these engines were used here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGq2fYWHl7WAj5o

[@RedsProjects]

Yeah they are a great motor. I'll check out the video soon, looks like a good watch, just need to have the English subtitles on. Thanks

[@roryalgate872]

Awesome video mate.... thanks for posting.... I just purchased a F250 with a 4.2...havent picked it up yet but your right about no info around well in English anyway. Has the owner of this truck had any issues with this engine.... I have read they are very reliable I hope they are as info isn't readily available.

[@RedsProjects]

Thanks mate, glad you liked the video. Tony has owned the f250 for a wile now and hasnt had any problems with it that im aware of. They are good motors, just change the oil regularly and it will live a long life

[@roryalgate872]

@@RedsProjects Thanks for reply mate.... is it true they have wet sleeves and if so I'm guessing regular coolant changes are a must.

[@RedsProjects]

@@roryalgate872 im not sure to tell you the truth, havnt had the head off one. Either way keeping the coolant fresh is a good idea

[@roryalgate872]

@@RedsProjects Hi Mate Sorry to bother you but where is the thermostat and water pump on these 4.2 mwm.... I just picked mine up and was doing a complete service but I can't find thermostat

[@RedsProjects]

@@roryalgate872 sorry mate i cant remeber where everything is, its been a wile since i worked on it. Next time i see tony i can have a look for you

[@darrenbothab8733]

Hey Red thanks for a great vid. Could I get in touch with you with regards to what you've done to this beauty of a machine. Honestly this the first video I've come across in English, I have an F250 (going on 8 years now) with the 4.2 MWM in and want to free up some more power. I am in South Africa

[@RedsProjects]

Thanks. Best way to get in contact with me would be to shoot me a message on reds projects facebook page and we can talk back and forth on messenger

[@RedsProjects]

Yes i agree with you, i was just giving the audience something familiar to compare it to because most of us Aussies have never heard of this motor before

[@darcykeddell4930]

1hz and td42 have no computer are all mechanical, td are all timing gear but 1hz are belt.

[@robotafflicition]

You mean to tell me that not just did Australia get all the cool Japanese diesel trucks they got awesome ford trucks with these? This is BS lol

[@RedsProjects]
