@@michaelr385 Awesome. Those 1988-1999 trucks were the best GM ever made. The 4.3, 5.0, 5.7, were all real good gas motors. I remember the 6.5 diesel being hit and miss. I'm glad yours seems to be doing well. How many miles do you have on the truck now?
@@joeraptor1 She's got 206,000 miles now. Yeah the 6.5 had a few issues even though I've heard the 98-99 version was best. I've done a few things to help reliability like relocating the PCM to an external cooler and adding an aftermarket low pressure fuel pump. The truck is a good workhorse for me so I try not to push it too hard.
@@michaelr385 Super. I believe the 6.5 was made by Detroit Diesel and they usually produce really good diesel engines. Modern emission constraints have made modern diesels expensive to run and maintain.
That straight blade pushing that snow doesn't seem to push that truck around at all. Impressive
hows the dually in the snow?
Ford guy here, buy that truck is a beast!
Thanks for the great video. What year is your Sierra? Sounds like it has the old 6.5 turbo diesel on it.
1999 and yes it's the old 6.5
