Is it possible to adjust fuel input into a 7.3l powerstroke manually on the go with some type of device or etc? I want to be able to quickly change stuff in the engine to efficiently use the oil instead of doing a whole lot of nothing and guzzling gas like a motherfucker
i want to have like some type of lever or something. idk what it would entail though to do this or what all even I'd even have to adjust.
I just want to save fuel
would i need to buy an ecu or something that would control fuel input?

You need to buy a 12v B series Cummins.
Manually adjust fuel input
Have happy days

What ?

?
I want to change the diesel/air output in the engine to lower levels when I need it. Then I could save fuel instead of using the standard high fuel use at normal operational times
>>16816982
tell me about this
also couldn't i just buy the injectors and the ecu from that engine and do the same with my engine

You're gonna clog the transmission

Don't fuck with it. You're gonna run it lean and fuck it up.

this. you'll nuke your engine.

Actually, never mind. Diesels use fuel metering as their throttle. So you'll just be running low power for no reason.
>>16817467
the reason would be he doesn't need full power
>>16817472
So he just needs to use less pedal

Ease up OP
This got 21 mpg hand calculated.
2000 7.3L with the 4R100 and 3.73 rear end
Just buy one of those cheap canned tuners. Tons on craigslist usually. Probably pick one up for $100. Will increase power and fuel economy.

>21 mpg from a 2wd
meh
>>16817823
21 mpg from a big heavy quad cab truck is really very good

>>16817467
he wants to roll coal
>>16817489
nice.
but man your tread on your tires is looking pretty slim bro!
>>16817489
21 mpg for that beast is pretty good
>>16817823
whats that?
I really know nothing about mods.
I'm planning on getting a truck real soon its a 2000 f350 7.3. 320,000m
Supposedly a few glow rods and injectors may be out.
so I was thinking maybe i could put in injectors that i can tweak somehow and get more fuel economy or something

The accelerator. Lrn 2 diesel first.

>glow rods
nigga it's a diesel not a nuclear power plant
>>16818883
thats what i'm trying to do
>>16818907
LMFAO my bad that shits funny though what you said hahha
you guys think that this >>16818874 is worth buying with so many miles and going in and replacing a few parts. maybe costing 1000$ for the stuff and upgrades?
if so, any recommended upgrades?
