About the Power Stroke ® Diesel Engine

In 1982, a partnership was established between International Truck and Engine Corporation and Ford Motor Company to build a diesel engine for Ford’s Super Duty ® pickup trucks.
Today, the Power Stroke ® is the best selling diesel engine in North America. That’s because vehicles powered by 6.0L and 7.3L Power Stroke ® Diesel engines are as versatile as they are rugged. The Power Stroke ® Diesel engine’s family of vehicles now includes the Ford F-250 through F-550 Super Duty ® pickup trucks and chassis cabs, E-Series vans, Excursion ® and the F650/F750. They're on the job every day in just about every application you can name – from construction, to ambulance use, to snow plowing to farming.

Why do customers choose the Power Stroke ® Diesel?

· Performance they can’t get anywhere – that’s the result of leading technologies like the EVRT ® Electronically Controlled Turbocharger which provides maximum responsiveness at all speeds with any load size
· Reduced noise, vibration and harshness that’s the result of innovations such as pad mounted accessories and reduced rear gear train noise levels
· Easier serviceability that includes easy access top-mounted oil filter and fuel filter, extended oil drain intervals and reusable long-life gaskets
· Increased durability and reliability as a result of such advancements as multi-layer stainless steel head gaskets, long-life piston ring package with premium steel and thermal coated rings and a bed plate design that provides added bottom end strength

Is it any surprise that since 1994 over 2,000,000 Power Stroke ® Diesel equipped Ford trucks have been produced – and an astonishing 98.5%* are still on the road!
