Talk:Ford Power Stroke engine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The in-direct injection 7.3 liter engine ran all the way into 1997. Then Ford went to the 7.3 liter direct injection Power Stroke. In 1994 Ford omitted the option for the turbocharger and made it standard. Then they deemed it the "Power Stroke"
7.3 Liter, Rest In Peace.
Is it 6.3 or 6.4 for the latest Powerstroke engine?
[edit] 444 cu in
I edited several places where the displacement on the 7.3L was listed as other than 444 cu in. It is a 444 cu in or a 7.27l engine. 7.3l is a rounded number. Don't add accuracy converting back that's not there15.243.169.71 22:42, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
The PowerStroke is *NOT* based on the only IH Gasser. There are two distinctive lines of enignes, the IDI and the Power Stroke, there was the 6.9 and 7.3 IDIs, they were the ones based on the gas engine, they were indirect injection, using pre-chambers connected to the main compression chamber, and had mechanical injection. In 1994.5 the IDIs were discontinued and replaced with the PowerStroke, which is an electronic direct injection diesel. The 7.3 Power stroke shares very little with the IDI. The only thing that is the same between them is the displacement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.209.41.56 (talk) 01:26, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Most durable diesel
The section that states the 7.3L engine is regarded as the most reliable diesel either needs a reference or needs to be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.165.251.78 (talk) 03:54, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
