Whistlindiesel had a Duramax that ran past the point the truck was chopped in half and couldn't move anymore. Legendary diesel
Hate that dude and will never stop for what he’s done to some really nice pieces of history. The classic Toyota Hilux is what put me over the edge.
@@ScarletGutswho cares ? It’s his money and his trucK. If you’re so worried about your precious Toyota hilux then make some real money and buy em all
@@aidenlebel8157exactlu
@@ScarletGutsthere’s plenty more hiluxes out there
@@aidenlebel8157 Brain Rot, WhistlinDiesel is scum. He is literally an avid user of r/fuckcars and is a cuckold, you think it's cool if some rich guy bought a classic painting just to destroy it and make people who appreciate the beauty of said art angry? Same shit WD is doing DISGUSTING. People who don't appreciate car design or the story behind cars and their history don't have the right to destroy them.
I know a lot of the comments are going to point out obvious shortcomings. No engine is perfect, these however are very good as far as light duty diesels go. Especially LBZ’s ofc.
“Here’s why the 6.6L duramax is one of the best Diesel engine ever”
It’s cus it’s a GM V8 buddy, can’t beat that.
People will argue and say it’s strictly an Isuzu engine but in reality it’s a 60/40 gm/Isuzu split
@@rock-uu7qr oh dang man, I never even thought of that lol. Learn something new every day
@@rock-uu7qr The GM/Isuzu partnership created DMax LTD. Every Duramax built has been built in Moraine Ohio at DMax LTD. The foundry is in Defiance Ohio.
@@MRMechanicRCthey are cool and fast, but damn they have some tough repairs in them. Water pump, cp3 etc
You didnt know it was an isuzu V8? 😂😂😂😂
Learned a lot about the Duramax from you. Hopefully you cover Mercedes OM engines soon
Not sure how. This dude just recites specs sheets
In 2002, i was 19 and had an old 7.3L idi.
My buddy's dad was the first guy I knew with a duramax, and he let me take it for a spin. I was shocked at the speed. Lol
Still a ford guy, tho.
7.3 is king
7.3 ain't nothing but a junk clunker loud obnoxious boat anchor
i hate working on the 6.6
I just learned that you can drive/wedge 2 chisels on front and rear of injectors to remove them if needed, Thank you
I'm literally about to go look at an lb7 with 240 k miles
I have an LB7 with about that mileage on it. I've done the injectors on it twice. The only reason I had to do it twice is because the first time I paid someone to do it and all they did was literally replace the injectors causing them to fail shortly thereafter.
Did it the second time myself with the DMax store kit and a lift pump for less than I paid someone to do it. Haven't had any problems since.
They're good engines and worth maintaining given all the emissions nonsense now.
@@tt7hvn thanks for the info, it seems it was a farm truck so Im hoping I don't have to spend much on it besides injector or an injection pump.
Don't do it
@@MrC9Oh3why?
The best diesel engine would still be in the truck running.
Just goona wait for the Ford boys to chime in about the 7.3 powerchoke .
Aye keeps the street trash from trying to steal mine right?
Gotta have something to help them Chevys find new roads... to the service department!
the best ever diesel is by far by many miles and many battles and simplicity and it's just so damn reliable is the Mercedes OM113 series of engines. OMG the best ever, i don't care who you are or where your from that is one of he most BOMB proof diesel engines that''s 130hp is just underrated. can tow 4 times it's rated capacity no problem. i've never owned a chevy or cumins diesel, but where I grew up the OM series is still running 24/7, in busses on shitty ass gravel semi asphalted roads up mountains and through all kinds of weather and they are by far the most reliable direct injected NA diesel engines ever. heck they even used them in ww2 in tanks and all other vehicles.
Crankshaft pins fatal flaws
Not if you leave it alone. First thing everybody does is tune and bigger turbo and lift pump and on and on and on.
Fastest way to ruin a perfect truck.
Whistlindiesel: hold my beer
I love these engines along with the trucks, idk why I’m scared to buy one though
Bro i want cat c280-16
Details 🙏
Why not mention the keyway problem they have on the harmonic balancer....that's a major design flaw !
Duramax is infact One of the best
Glow plugs?
Best diesel ever
No not the absolute best diesel, it's an amazing diesel none the less
Crank pin
@@user-hb3fi3vn2w killer dowel pin
No major changes to the engine that destroys crankshafts it’s pathetic GM knows about this probl we m and dosent fix it
Hey D- Engineers, lets put a Key Way in the crank pully, not a MICRO PIN that always fails and eats its self.
L5p???
The gen 2 L5P 🎉 best engine ever
Isuzu and Japan
l5p is a whole different block and head design, wish i could drop an l5p crank in my lbz but it’s impossible same with my heads on l5p block
Go with a Callies Crank. It's better anyways. It's what my LBZ uses
Yeah we're going to skip over the fact that every time it loses a fuel pump cost you ten Grand Just in parts shit engineering
Not sure where you're going with this comment. 2001 - 2010 used a Cp3 and didn't have the issue. Cummins and Powerstroke used the same pump also having the same issues. Duramax doesn't use it anymore. Cummins changed too but the Powerstroke still uses it
@@countcuda70exactly lmao
@@countcuda70as a ford owner, I agree with you
A 10mm stroker cp3 is under $1000???
Good old cp4s, GM and dodge quit using them, Ford still does. I make a fair bit of money swapping them out for dcr pumps
Can't believe you're using a chisel, to take off the valve cover.
Hard-core cringe.
He's taking the injector out, the valve cover stays on as long as it's not an lb7
By currently producing the lowest numbers from the factory? Is that why it’s the best?
- *gets into my Deawoo Laganza and drives away*
not true the L5P has completely redesigned heads for better more direct air flow ! amongst so many other changes !!!
Was the crank pin one of those changes?
@@user-hb3fi3vn2w i we all know the unfortunate answer to that !
Guys duramax engine is not a gm design it is an Isuzu 😂 gm cannot design such an engine or has the ability to do so we know the junk they built before😂😂😂😂
The LLY was the best of them all. The only engines better than an LLY was a 12 valve or a 7.3!
Oh fuck off. The 7.3 doesn’t make any power to get out of its own way and the 12v is just noisy and Smokey. No 7.3 can be compared to a duramax but a 24 valve can rival one
@@rock-uu7qr I’m talking about reliability stupid. Duramax is just a tinker toy that never runs right and is always in the workshop getting another broken part replaced while 7.3’s and Cummins are still on the road hauling your Chevy off to the impound lot or a scrapyard.
@@hilljackzack7284 You're comments don't make any sense. You said the 7.3 and 12v are the only engine better. Only to follow that up saying the Duramax is a tinker toy and garbage.. So the LLY is better then every other Cummins and Powerstroke. Good to know. The LLY is a good engine. The LBZ is better.
@@countcuda70 no they make perfect sense the LLY is the best duramax and is the only one that is any good and I can even say that the LLY in particular was one of the best diesels of all time. Chevy has a unicorn diesel running around and they’re hard to find is what I’m actually saying.
@@hilljackzack7284 😂 that's funny. An LLY isnt hard to find. Better or worse is all subjective. LLY was a good engine. The LBZ is better. I meant more how you said the Duramax was garbage but then put it as one of the best engines... Smh
God Bless You all. All Glory to God! Repent and live for God. Romans 10:9 “If you declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God rose Him from the dead you will be saved.
You’re going to hell
Best thing about duramax is that your cardiovascular system will benefit from your purchase. The amount of walking you’ll have to do will increase your life span 🇺🇸
I'm sure you've never even owned a duramax. It's a great engine with smooth power and a nice shifting tranny too. I have powerstroke 7.3 and a duramax, both good. I'll never buy a dodge
@@michealortiz3350 I’ve fortunately owned all three big names. Each has there issues, treat them all right and they’ll last forever. But it’s fun to poke at all of them.
@zingzong5 I feel it I've owned them all too and still have my ford and chevy. Everyone rants and raves about dodge having a cummins but in my own experience dodges are the biggest piles of shits. Junk trannys along with the whole rest of the truck.
@@michealortiz3350 will say that aisin is solid unless you’re talking about the last 3yrs since they added the new snap ring
@zingzong5 ehhh I'll still never buy a dodge. The truck itself falls apart. There's a reason why you rarely see 2nd gen dodges these days because they just don't last. You see plenty early duramaxes and super dutys still.
Cranks are bad
Even better than the 7.3 international? 🧐🧐🧐🧐
I can here ur clunker from across the country please shut it off it's giving me a headache
Best modern deisel imo
True and I own a ford
This man is not lying. I got the 2018 chevy high country. Best vehicle I have ever owned. Parts are expensive but... they are really HARD to break. Since it is a diesel, the mpg is amazing! For me, I drive 70 mph on highway and I get 38 mpg no trailer and 25 mpg with a 20,000 pound trailer. Haven't had any issues out of that truck yet and it is well over 100k miles. The 6.6 duramax is a BEAST!
Duramax is a great engine but you're not getting 38 mpg empty or 25 mpg pulling 20k in an HD truck. That's better mileage then I'm getting with the 3.0l Duramax
Lmao you are not getting 38. Jesus. 🤦♂️ and you are also NOT getting 25 either. You're either lying or you are clueless and know nothing at all about your truck.
@@countcuda70 this dude knows nothing
@@benjaminturpin2749 I agree. Would be hard to see 25 mpg empty. Let alone pulling 20k
Dudes got his settings on kilometers and doesn’t know it
It’s a heavy duty
6.6 is trash
Found the ford guy☝🏻
😂 no
Biggest pice of junk engine ever designed. I would never buy one again. Nothing but problems
