Yes i was talking about the glow pugs still being used They are not under the valve covers but under the exaust manifold. Didnt know about the injectors but would rather have them out from under the valve covers like they are now.

the glow plugs have never been under the valve covers either


EDIT: the glow plugs have never been under the exhaust manifold in a place where thy are unaccessable. Ill take a pic of my engine. Pull a fender liner, and all the glow plugs are right there. Takes about 10 minutes to change one.

He said "the duramax still does also", as in it still uses glow plugs. I don't think he was referring to where they were.

Thats good from the cutaway drawing they looked under. While were on the topis where are they on a 7.3. Tried finding them one day and couldn't are they under the valve covers?

Not many people can shell out for a near 60k truck, thats why these companies are struggling with business. Keep it simple, reliable,. and affordable, and put the 12v in.

BOX5: WORD! They are trying for everything to impress the people looking for the "Image".That truck costs as much as a small house in Texas.

that motor is shoved in there like a sardine and whoever designed that interior likes squares and rectangles

They need to focus on the basics, they keep trying to outdue themselves, when they can barely stay afloat as is. There living outside of most people financial ability, they have most the country that they could apeal to, but they keep trying to make the biggest baddest thing out there that only like 1/10th the country can afford to even lease.

Where's the engine?

On the 7.3 Powerstrokes they are under the valve covers, along with the injectors.

My freind has an 08 450 fullyloaded 62k. Thats just dumb for a truck. The best part of the truck is the sticker under the hood,( IF YOUR CAN REACH IT FROM HERE, LIFT THE CAB OFF). I swear to god it says it.
