Do you have to bleed the system after doing the return lines?

Tuners kill any Diesel engine, and lack of maintenance. Oil and fuel filters are cheap compared to fuel pumps and coolers!

2007 three for me that I bought brand new. 24 years only a couple minor issues, and the truck is still running strong.

What is this part name?

Nahhhhh...... it's the engine

Could have at least cleaned around it

That's one of the common issues tracked down. Most of the older mechanics know about this

How many miles was on this do you remember ?

That does not look like they've replaced it, I think he may want to talk to a lawyer.

How do you take of the belt from the alternator bud?

The 6.0 had a rough start but it is ageing like fine wine.

I put brand new stand pipes and dummy plugs in my 6.0 and had that same seal fail 2 weeks later.

That's why you should seek out a technician and not a mechanic. Skilled labor isn't cheap and cheap labor isn't skilled. Even tho that job wasn't cheap

I still wouldn’t own one.

How did you get it on without removing, sliding out of way.

Most comments are indestructible but with anything do you have to take care of it a lot of people don't take care of those engines

People who don't take care of their equipment

you also work on diesels too

3 months ago I installed standard brand stand pipes , dummy plugs and reman injectors. 2 weeks ago I had to replace the stand pipes and dummy plugs with ford parts. Yesterday my truck started smoking alot and after testing I now have 2 bad injectors. DO NOT USE STANDARD BRAND CRAP

That’s a son of a gun to get out

To be fair, most deisel mechanics are really clueless when it comes to the 6.0

Best tip when doing this? Run the engine to normal operating temp BEFORE trying to remove them. Heat will aid the removal greatly.

Quality is job one

It’s not gonna be any better with that Amazon stand pipe and kit you are about to install

I’m learning this now with my 6.0 it’s taught me a lot and I’m really proud of it it always gives me hell but I love that damn truck no matter where I’ve taken it too I’ve never had a “mechanic” solve my problem in turn it’s made me get in her guts and learn head gaskets different sensors o rings injections high pressure pumps I’ve learned it’s better to break it down and test each part rather throw parts bc boy this thing is expensive but always worth that power she expels when I open the throttle much love to the 6.0 owners out there

Excelente video en mi cumins el cabezal no tiene la muesca para meter el lapiz de inyección, sabes a que se debe? Gracias

That fact you didn't clean that vally shows you're a half ass mechanic and your shop should never touch a 6.0

So if this fail does it cause coolant to get into oil pan?

7.3 rules all you

Can this cause a hot no start I’ve done stand pipes and fixed it then it messes up so I put new hpop and it won’t start unless I use starting fluid before new hpop it would start cold tho

Thank you

Does that have warranty? I know tool trucks warranty on battery tools is only for a few years. I have looked at Icon diagnostic tool scanner but for a tool truck scanner at $1,200 is not bad

After all that work and then IPR issue tells me last mechanic was not meticulous about cleanliness while working on the engine. The next thing is the blown o-ring on the stand pipe valve. I went through that issue numerous times because I thought I was using a dependable aftermarket brand part. Turns out that if you use the genuine Motorcraft part, it will last a long time. All the aftermarket stand pipes I used would fail just like that within 1500 to 2000 miles because the o-rings are not the same quality. My 6.0 is bullet proofed short of doing the head studs. Factory settings and over 250k on it. Still runs strong and will pull a load all day without any issues. Plan to run it as long as the government will let me.

Nah the 6.0 gets a bad rap because they're junk. But at least u are one of the good mechanics that figure them out. I had 2 of them. I shoulda learned on the first one. I went to a cummins in 2010 and have never had to have work done on a motor since.

6.0 are great once you spend 50,000 fixing all the mistakes on a truck not worth 25,000 great deal

I was nervous about buying my 6.0l about its “bad” reputation, but after diving into some research, 95% of the time it’s either mechanics that don’t know what they’re doing or trying to make money off you. Mine has 260k on it and runs perfect, I’ve heard people getting 600k out of them, just keep fresh fluids in them

do u come to phoenix az

I tell people all the time that 6.0s get a bad rep from shit mechanics. They throw parts at it with zero diagnostics then charged the customer thousands and the actual issue was never addressed. A 6.0 is a great platform and reliable once you address the factory issues. If you’ve never worked on a 6.0 and can’t even monitor the PIDs to see a sensor is bad then you should put your tools down and go home.

Did you do a flush or just drain and refill?

Not workin for me ugh

Truth is the 6.0 is a pile of crap for the simple reason that when something goes wrong it’s always expensive to fix it. I work on these daily and I agree not everyone should be working on these for many reasons. The same goes for sprinter 3.0. Just too expensive to fix when they break. Other than that. I can get serious hp and torque out of a 6.0.

I have u010c and p2BAC code with very little boost a full throttle. What could be my problem? Thanks

Where you located

Nope, someone is lying.

Thank you!!!!

Mine is a 12/03 and has all the 04 and late parts except the odd intake doesnt have the back loop like early 03 but isnt clean like the 05 it has ears on it so bad you cant unscrew the ipr out because it hits the ears on the intake?? Seen these??

This isn't without a key. The key is in the ignition and turned forward and then you jump started the turnover. You're still starting it with that key

What the fudge...insane in the membrane. Mannnnn, the older cars and trucks were better. Carburator, and motors that had less problems. Theses computerized, motors, more problems, and pull the hair problems. Bring the older unmonitored vehicles back!!!!💔💔💔

Sir I truly thank you for taking time out of your day to help people like me. I have the same code that starts with a U and I’m going to do exactly what you showed us.
