The replacement required the injection pump, regulator, and oil sump to be adapted to the vehicle. However, it turned out that the pickup truck&#8217;s engine compartment was too small for the new engine.<\/p>\n<p>What to do? It soon became clear that the installation would not be possible without removing the fan blades. But how would the pickup truck work without fan blades? The first test run on the freeway at a speed of 60 mph was successful. Further testing showed that a speed of about 75 mph was possible without any cooling problems. In winter, the huge honeycomb radiator even had to be partially covered in order to achieve the operating temperature of the MWM engine.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-99269 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mwm.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ford-Pickup-F250-Baujahr-1979.jpg\" alt=\"Ford pickup truck with MWM diesel engine\" width=\"800\" height=\"481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mwm.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ford-Pickup-F250-Baujahr-1979.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mwm.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ford-Pickup-F250-Baujahr-1979-768x462.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After 27 years and approximately 338,000 miles, the converted Ford pickup truck is still being used for transportation purposes.
