HELP!! Pre-Combustion Chamber????

Does the 7.3 have a pre-combustion chamber?? I read all PSDs do, then a mechanic said only the 6.0 and new do. But he was a Dodge mechanic that works on Cummins. So who is correct??? I need to know before I hook up my HHO kit.

Thanks

the older 7.3 &6.9 idi engines had pre *** chambers.

From 1994ish to 2009, theyre all direct injection.

PS is your HHO kit for mileage, or horsepower?

Reason I ask is that I ran a gen for a bit, but was a pain cause it's -40 half the friggin year here. LOL.

I twice let go large amounts of HHO gas into my intake while accelerating my stock truck hard, and it has huge power potential.

Careful, while this can all be fun, theres always a nagging chance you could kill yourself.

Sounds like this is in the wrong forum.

The Dodge guy is wrong. NO PowerStrokes have pre-combustion chambers. That was one of the changes when the PowerStroke was rolled out.

What's HHO? Hydrogen?
