Starting issues with a Ford F-250 diesel?
What is the problem? In cold weather you need strong batteries to turn over a diesel motor. In really cold weather its best to keep the engine running maybe truing it off for a few hours but no more.
- Issues with 1998 ford ranger starting? MY car will randomly not start, i pop the hood and jiggle the negative wire and it will start to work. The cable is attaced tightly to the terminal, it's the wiring leading away from the terminal I have to jiggle. I was wondering if anyone could help me with identify the problem. My car is a 1998 Ford ranger xlt.
- Car cuts out whilst starting a couple times and also because if being revved fully after starting? So yeah, it does that from starting cold i think. It has been suggested that its my Idle air control valve but i've cleaned that out and it still does it. Also replaced spark plugs. Its a Ford Fiesta 1998. However, it idles fine as soon as I've moved the car. So even when stopped it is fine as long as i have driven it since start up. The issues only happen on start up. Any ideas?
- Jeep tj or a Ford 250 diesel? Which would be a better first vehicle and cheaper? Where I'm diesel is cheaper, but I'm pretty sure jeeps are cheaper to insure. I want both to be older models
- How long can I expect a 2007 Ford F-250 superduty with a 6.0 diesel to last? I'm looking at purchasing a 2007 Ford F-250 super duty with the 6.0 diesel in it. Current mileage is 154,000 and from what I can find on it has been serviced fairly well and was a texas truck. I only intend to use it to haul a 30' travel trailer a few times a year and maybe some local driving around town from time to time, but not really daily use. But my question is how reliable are they?
