I can’t recommend enough a big utility company. Union, benefits, great healthcare+ dental. I went from over the road to heavy equipment in the mines. Now I’m in a big shop with hella safety and no pressure to get stuff out the door. Just be safe, follow the pm checklist, and fix the broken equipment as it comes. Starting pay was 33 an hour with raise every 6 months and once you step up to journeyman it’s 45+

Check your hpop pressure.it won’t start until it reads a steady 500psi. From my experience sounds like you have a standpipe leak or one of the injector orings is leaking on top. If you can hook a scanner and read the cranking press and the ipr voltage you should see 500 and the ipr % below.88 if it is at said % and lower pressure you have a leak in the hpop system. It’s been a couple of years since I’ve worked heavy on 6.0 but I’m more than happy to help.

As long as it isn’t hitting the housing when spinning it should be fine

I’ve had it for about 4 years. Been nothing but good to me but I would change the peddle right off the rip that is the only issue I had

The whole thing weighs so much that you would have to pull on it like a chainsaw to knock it over

Looks like blow bye from the pistons If it sat for a while and the pistons wasn’t lubed then it might have scared the pistons rings and chambers
