      Just popped up I'm my deal here. No one says anything about how bad ass the batteries are. I'm in TEXAS and we go from 105 to 25. My 98' 12V always starts. It's almost the difference between a carburetor and fuel injection when talking about mechanical injection vs electronic. My tuck will always start (maybe hard to get going but still goes). Electronic starts easier if everything is perfect no matter the temps (1 thing wrong and your dead in the water). I.E. not enough voltage to run the ECM and the starter. Fun videos!

      This is the first winter I've had a 1997 12 valve in my Chevy truck. It doesn't have a grid heater because the engine was in an industrial application. The pump is tuned for 230HP and it's making 600ft lbs of torque. It just hit -15° here and I expected a really hard start. But it started instantly like a gas engine. I've never had to give it any throttle. Maybe I'm just lucky. Although I know the Cummins that are making BIG power can be hard to start.

      Cummins don't have glow plugs. They have an intake heater, but they don't do much.

      Had plenty of time to build oil pressure. I found out later the injection timing was incorrect for the injector and delivery valves that were in it. Once i set it correctly it pops off first crank.

    A bit of research in a 1940s book on Diesels confirmed today startability is all about compression index, which considers compression ratio and propensity to dissipate heat in the charge mass due to contact or not with large surface area of swirl chambers etc if present in predicting charge temperature at the point of fuel injection . This is why direct injection engines usually start easily in cold weather.

      Factory they cycle when the "wait to start" light is on. The shuts off and thats when you crank it. If it did the grid heater while you cranked itd kill your batteries pretty quick. And yes thats a 6.9L. I have videos on it too. Subscribe. Ill have 471 detroit 2 cycle diesel videos soon.
