    So this week in ND has been crazy. Temps reaching as low as -40 for ambient air and -75 with windchill. The truck has been sitting outside not plugged in and we see if she will start up. The truck is a brand new L5P Duramax. I explain my favorite features and do a cold start in this video.

    I don't know if Duramax's have that same issue, but if it keeps doing that might want to take a look at that sensor. But then again, that might just be part of the warm-up cycle.

When the temps go up the elevated idle doesn't kick in.

    @djg1028 5 лет назад +1

    That was a cool test to see how it starts on its own in the cold weather however if you had to go somewhere the next morning at those temperatures you would want to leave the block heater plugged in all night and also anytime any diesel truck is outside when the temperature is below zero out you always want no less than half a tank of diesel fuel and possibly even some anti-gel additive in addition and take it for a drive with that anti-gel additive in the tank to get it mixed up before an extended period stored in cold weather. On my 2004 Ford diesel when you start it it will do the high idle automatically when it is cold and then you will hear it cycle down as soon as you put your foot on the brake. It won’t do the high idle immediately, I would say usually after about a minute or two of idling.

    Hello there, could I use a fragment of your video for my coldstarting compilation? Of course I will put a link to your original video in the description, increasing the original’s popularity too. Thanks a lot for you answer in advance :)
    Is this the same truck in all of those videos? I see the front end look has changed, but I see the same license plate too =) super easy starts, even this one was very good, the new diesels really have it dialed in

    duramax glow plugs hit 1000 degrees in 2 seconds so they don't need to be warmed up, the fuel heater however is a different story. you get no exhaust at first because for the first bit the truck reroutes your exhaust to help get some heat into the engine then

    What is the purpose of using the glow plugs if you don’t start the engine when the glow plug light goes off we get a lot of check engine lights at the dealership for insufficient heat cycle because people wait for all the dash lights to go off so the cylinders start to cool back off from not starting right when just the glow plug light goes off

    W my 2019 2500 and extreme cold since they r built in glow plugs and u can’t plug in, best option is to cycle glow plugs over 4 times and giving it gas could shorten life. Also don’t hold starter for long periods of time as it can damage👍🏻 enjoy the new truck as I am still enjoying mine🤙🏻

      @animavesta955 5 лет назад

      Starting the truck as soon as the glow plug light turns off the first time and waiting a few seconds without turning the key off insures the easiest start possible as the new glow plugs are electronically controlled by a smart controller and they stay heated until they are not needed. Also the glow plugs have nothing to do with plugging the truck in, that would be the block heater, warms up block, coolant, etc. If you don't think you have a block heater just look you will find it, all Duramax trucks have them. Just a little tip from someone who owns and operates trucks like this for a living.

    • @jets8991
      @jets8991 4 года назад +3

      @@omgwonders2946 if a engine is running at any rpm it is "adding a wear an tear". If you didn't know, metal expands and contracts when hot and cold. Different parts of the motor heat up quicker. It's not uncommon for the piston to heat up much quicker than the block and end up scraping the piston skirt. Oil, especially thicker oil used in diesel engines doesnt flow as fast ALSO accelerating wear.
      There are many factors that cause wear but an engine is only going to rotate a certain number of times in its life no matter how well it is maintained. So idling deffinately adds up.

      @jnk26 5 лет назад +2

      The "real feel" is just telling you the whidchill is. That temp only affects things with heat. Like your body. If your bare skin is exposed you will get frostbite in the same time as if it was the "Reelfeel" temp. If you are driving down the highway at 60 mph ands stick your hand out the window and it's 30f out you are experiencing 10f windchill. If it is -25f at 60mph it's same as -69f. If you stick a thermometer out the window. It will always show the air temp nothing less. Windchill effects only the rate of heatloss. Something that is hot will cool faster but not get colder than air temps. I hate the fear the weather has built into people. It not any colder now than 10 years ago. The reason your truck snuffed out was the air entering the combustion chamber was too cold to support combustion on the next ignition event. That's where the fuel on the third try helped. The rough run is the ecm trying to balance combustion and emissions. Cold engines have lots of soot from incomplete combustion. So it was tryingto "see" what the limit was for balanced operation.
