@@skinlab4239 That's not the point, the point is not to bitch about stupid things. And I hate to say it, but if you work in an oil field you're already going to smell strong, nothing an open window will make worse. 😂
The threshold for that system to idle up is a lot lower than you think. If it waits for the oil to be like 100-120F then it would take 20 minutes before it even idled up in cold weather.
You're 100% right. Pistons require heat to operate at normal temperatures. 214 F at least. If you high idle. You may end up with pistons and valves slapping harder.
That's extremely hard on the engine as the time to let the engine "warm up" is a lot longer than if you just drive moderately. In the dead of winter if I just hop in and go after 3 blocks of 1/4 pedal the truck will start kicking out heat. If you let it idle it takes a very long time. If you high idle it it takes maybe around 5-10 minutes I can't remember.
@@medicchester peg would disagree with you and so do I, truck never sees 214° unless I'm towing or something is wrong. Most 6.0s out there have a stuck open thermostat and only see in the 180's and people are not easy on them. I have never heard of slapping valves on a 6.0
It's nice you can do it factory and you can pick the idle speed. On the 6.0 trucks it's 1200 (I've seen it going higher with boosters) but at least it sets faster than the cruise
Sometimes, I've seen trucks run at 900 for a little bit then go to idle, some trucks are programmed to kick off the high idle after a hour or so. You can't trust your truck to high idle itself unless you don't care about it or have bags of money.
Be sure to let it idle for half an hour minimum too like my neighbor does at 5:30AM every morning
That's pretty hard on an engine especially if your not high idling it.
ROTFLMBO!😮😂
I just put the windows down like a man, and I live in south florida which is basically satans asshole, as far as heat index.
Windows down equals a dirty pickup, at least here in windy kansas
A man can afford to keep his ac running. A man doesn't want to sweat and stink.

What happened to letting the oil warm up before increasing engine rpm I guess I’m old school.

@@diesellivesmatter Over-rev a 6.0 and those pistons might pull a Chris Brown.
I believe you lil pistol in the middle floorboard is fully charged boss😁
Haha that thing is out of scent, been hanging on the little hook for over 4 years. I had to tie a knot in it to hang it back up.
I always idle up my ram 6.7. Turn on cruise running in park hit the set button twice 1100 -1200

Your brake pedal pad is upside down.
@@danp7463 I'll have to look, I have 3 more superdutys to compare it too
@@diesellivesmatter Nice, I've had Ford trucks most of my life. They take a beating and stay in fight.
@@danp7463 I've done some fucked up things to the superdutys. If only the 6.0 came out of the box as good as the 7.3
Wait...why do you have more buttons then I do?
The aux switches or on the steering wheel?
Life is too easy..
Take wins when you can
Lol in winter a high idle is used

"a hight idle
Height or high I take it as I can
