quote from trans place on my 47RE

Q: on apr 17 321 pm klumze s...@yahoo.com wrote god we ask that you be with these families come into their hearts tonight be with them let them feel your presence. we pray god that those who have fallen come unto you and your mercy be shown. in the name of our lordjesus christ. amen would that be the same god that stood by and allowed this to happen jam most people do not understand why god permits wickedness and so blame him for all the bad things that take place. they do not realize that mans inclination toward badness is not because of gods will but because of the sin of adam. see rom. 512 they may be unaware of the existence of satan the devil and of his influence on world affairs so they ascribe to god the vile things perpetrated by satan. see 1 john 519; rev. 1212 if they are to some extent aware of these things they may feel that god is slow about taking action because they do not see clearly the issue of universal sovereignty and do not grasp the fact that gods patience down till this time affords them an undeserved opportunity for salvation. see rom. 24; 2 pet. 39 also they do not fully realize that god has a set time when he will destroy forever all who practice wickedness.-see rev. 2210-12; 1118; hab. 23. if someone else commi

it theory any rpm up to redline but as you have seen much above 2000 rpm in a cruise mpg can take a dump. this has to do with flame speed and increased pumping losses. flame speed in a diesel isnt an issue. the flame is propagated in the direct center of the piston on most if not all diesels. the cummins 5.9 engines have been tuned to turn at over 4000 rpm so flame speed down the cylinder at stock rpms isnt an issue either. the loss of mpg at higher ground speeds can be directly attributed to the exponential increase in aerodynamic drag. although i do not own a ctd i have driven many and i do agree that it just does not feel happy above 2300 rpm or so. mine feels great all the way to 2800 rpm and ive pushed it to 3100 numerous times. part of this reason is displacement because 5.9 is a pretty big six and there is a lot of mass in there to balance. interesting comment considering the 5.9 is a small inline six diesel and the new one is 6.7 liters. this is likely why gm and ford stuck with v8 designs because they are easier to balance can have a smaller bore/stroke for same general displacement. the inline six is inherently easier to balance than any v design. gm and ford likely stuck with v8s for the following reasons 1 higher rpm ability thus quicker acceleration when under no load. 2 low hood line 3 cummins was unavailable due to contractual obligation. 4 could be put into vans not just trucks. in theory though your ctd should have the mpg edge because a engine with fewer cylinders with same general displacement has less heat loss due to a better volume to surface area relation one reason they use big displacements in otr trucks the negative of this though is that they do not like to rev up much. the inline six will deliver more torque at low rpm for any given displacement than a v8 will deliver. this is the reason for better efficiency. -- max join www.devilbrad.com and find out what free exchange of info is all about. there are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty soap ballot jury and ammo. please use in that order. -ed howdershelt author on wed 18 apr 2007 075919 -0700 big al sal1@qwest.net wrote my 04 ctd goes into fuel shut off around 3100 rpm. for some unknown reason im hesitant to run it over 2500 for long periods of time. anyone know the maximum safe sustained rpm btw my fuel mileage goes to hell over about 2300 in od. it theory any rpm up to redline but as you have seen much above 2000 rpm in a cruise mpg can take a dump. this has to do with flame speed and increased pumping losses. although i do not own a ctd i have driven many and i do agree that it just does not feel happy above 2300 rpm or so. part of this reason is displacement because 5.9 is a pretty big six and there is a lot of mass in there to balance. this is likely why gm and ford stuck with v8 designs because they are easier to balance can have a smaller bore/stroke for same general displacement. in theory though your ctd should have the mpg edge because a engine with fewer cylinders with same general displacement has less heat loss due to a better volume to surface area relation one reason they use big displacements in otr trucks the negative of this though is that they do not like to rev up much. ----------------- thesnoman.com .
