Diesel Cool Down

[jnbhobe]

Yeah, but most of the time I drive it like I'm paying for it.

Well that's no fun !!

Agreed. Way too much thought. My brain hurts. I need to go camping

Let's go! I'll bet there's still room for you at Luray this weekend

if it needed a cool down time it would of been put in the computer ... stop shut it off and get out .

I have 2015 Ford F350 with 6.7 Powerstroke and in the Diesel Supplement owners manual under Switching off the engine: "To prolong engine life (especially after extended high speed, high ambient temperature or high GVW/GCVW operation such as heavy loads or heavy trailers) it is recommended that a hot engine be idled for 3-5 minutes. This allows the turbocharged engine to cool down."

If it good enough for Ford to document it in the owners manual, it good enough for me, especially while still under engine warranty.

After I have been towing a lot of times I am leaving the engine run while I unhook. I figure this is my engine cool down period.
