Hahaha, Thought I was the only one. I about fainted when I discovered that 4k was ok! I was surprised when I got the injectors cleaned and hammered down. I was missing a lot.
I went the other way. I learned on a series60 that was governed @1800. Later on I had a small can Cummins that was designed for 1700-2100.Since I bought my first 7.3 in ‘90 I have always had a problem with high diesel rpm’s for some reason. It is just been hard for me to get used to running a diesel with high rpm’s. Even today. I am and old school truck driver from the late 60s, 70s, 80s and trucks were worked roughly 18 to 2200-2300 RPM mostly. Sometimes 2400 if we were running from the cops But what I am saying I learned Back then on Cummins, Cat, Detroit, MAC using a lower RPMs, and it still gives me trouble to pull mine up to 2800 or more RPMs. Probably a mental problem ha ha Ran a Cummings 903 v8 one trip and they told me work it 2800-3400 rpm....was hard for me!!!
