I'm currently stuck. So I decided to get a bite to eat while diagnosing this issue. I try this as soon as I'm done. Don't feel like getting towed. Thank-you.
You got to run a fuel additive to lubricate the cp4 pump it's a must or you will have a failure cp4 pumps lubricate with the fuel diesel fuel in this country has none hardly
@cincydieselrepair6893 darn it. I'm in nc and I need this done. Just a bit intimidated since it's my first diesel. My truck leaks a bit of oil as well. Could this be the cause of the oil leak too? (Have the hot stall/no start)
You do this like it’s just another walk in the park. I drive a 2016 6.7 ram and would love to be able to do all my work because finding a good honest person is tough.
I have an 06 81k milea. It started to have no throttle response and then when i park it. try to start it back up crank no start . Let it set starts back up sometimes and runs good. This morning crank no start after sitting over night. I traid it about 10 min later fierd up runs fine. No wrench light . Has an egr deleat but still has egr sensor and check engine light because of tht egr delete. Any advice?
That's sounds to me like a leak in the high pressure oil system or possibly a you are loosing sync between the cam and crank signal. Even though the lights not on there could be a ghost code so it's worth having it scanned. After that you really need to check the data. Check high pressure demand compared to actual to see if there's a leak in the high pressure oil system. Usually they crank no start after warm up is a blown o-ring on a standpipe or dummy plug
Hey brother thanks for the video. Can I bring my truck to you? I need head gasket done. Did the fluid test and i have a combustion leak, coolant out of the exhaust.. what’s the best way to reach you?
Wow, what a complete video ,Reminds me of Ron the Dieseal Machanic. Question, My son and i Bullet proofed my 2004 F 250 at 54 K, all the new stuff .. High pressure oil pump at 75 K Plus a program box We didnot replace the Standpipes, never thought about that. Now, when its below 40 degrees it want start without plugging in the glow plug wire for about hour. It has 155 K miles runs like a top except during hunting season when it cold. Do you think i need to replace the OIl Rail Ball tube seals, I'm just an old 79 year dude that likes to work on stuff.. Thank you so much,, SE TExas
Thank you for the kind words. I can assure you that a cold start problem has nothing to do with the high pressure oil system. Those trucks will not turn on the check engine light for bad glow plugs. If you have someone scan the truck it'll probably show you have some bad glow plugs. Recommendation all my customers is to go buy 8 Ford glow plugs and the wiring harness for each side. It's not that expensive.
I changed glow plugs at 57 k , with all Ford parts all my part are Ford. Someone just told me it was the old type stand pipes ole rings . Thanks again .
@sterlingdavidgrasssr bad stand pipes or o- rings in the high pressure oil system will only cause a hard start when hot problem because the oil is thinner and can bypass the cut in the o-ring. I will guarantee if you are having a hard start when cold issue then something has gone bad in the glow plug system. Glow plugs do not last long in these trucks.
Thank you for the good explanation. I just got the same code and my truck cranks but it doesn’t start. Now I know what to check for. Keep the excellent work. 💪💪💪 God bless you
I lost my pedal yesterday and stopped. Truck was idling fine. Shut it off and now it wont start. Its a 99 7.3 manual. Any ideas? Would this sequence you did be the same for my 7.3?
Just pulled mine apart today. Got both heads off. Found 2 lifters broken. The roller rocker is missing the wheel completely. Haven't checked the cam yet. Broken plastic guide. Not sure what caused it but man this is a terrible design flaw. My bottom end is new less than 3k on it. Now this happens. Did yours end up needing a cam?
I’m having the same issue, I unplugged the EBP light went away , pedal returned BUT, I drove it 2 blocks unplugged and wrench came back and I lost the pedal. Back to the drawing board, please help
The reason it came back on is the computer realized it's unplugged. Unplugging it only good for figuring out which sensor it is. The computer will pick up certain sensors that are unplugged and go back into limp mode. You can try plugging the sensor in starting the truck and unplugging the sensor but you'll probably only get a few more blocks before the computer goes back into limp mode.
Haven’t ran across that yet but I’m sure it’s a matter of time. I love what my 6.0s and 7.3 trucks will do but gosh damn the 6.0s have been giving me hell lately.
The newer generation powerstroke, the more money it's going to cost in repairs. That's just leaving the 6.4 out of the subject. The newer generations are also so much more comfortable and quite than the first.
Super interestng and loaded with a lot of info. I have the same model. Near all OK. It has the I think "P2290" and leaks a lot of oil. I could deal with this. But I don*t want to. Even at running I don*t get the ICP above 1800PSI. What would be Your 1st "suspect"? All good M.
This I like. Bad camera work, no "fancy" intro, no time intensive editing, but information where it is possible to work with. Thank You for uploading. M.
Give the engine a little bump, it should lower the piston and you should see the hole top of the piston. And the cylinder wall. Or a valve is stuck open.
It sounds like you have a bad cam or crank sensor. I would start by replacing the crank sensor and check the wiring harness and pigtail. Are there any engine codes?
You just saved my butt with this compression test video. I almost traded in my Hummer for a used 64 and now no because of you that the 6-4 I was looking at has no compression on a number 3 cylinder. Thanks a million
I tried using the same tool and the hold down bolt tends to want to bend slightly and the injector isn't budging I can spin it side to side but I can't seem to pull it out or pry it out either
Things been kicking my ass for the past 3 days lol, Any suggestions on how I could get that last injector on the passenger side out. Room is tight which sucks to get any good leverage on or is there some sort of tool that would be strong enough to pull it out that won't bend possibly
Did you try flipping the hold down upside down and tapping it with a hammer. If I couldn't get it out with the tool or using the hold down up side down trick then I think I would pull the head because there is something else going on.
I have a 2007 6.0 that someone didnt take back in during a recall on the HPOP rear fitting. It came with a 2 piece fitting and was supposed to get a new one piece fitting. Never happened. Truck running bad. Turbo wouldn't spin up. Replaced turbo. No High Pressure oil. Engine full of glitter. Ground off lobes on camshaft. I kust parked it. Still have it. Need to take block in and have it gone over first. Any way to tell if the HPOP on that one was recalled or replaced?
The only real way to be sure is remove the HPOP cover and look at the fitting. You can visually tell the difference. Let me see if I can find a picture.
It won't let me attach a picture but Google 6.0 powerstroke HPOP fitting upgrade. You will find a great article by XDP Diesel that shows the difference.
I don't. I always recommend to the customer checking if I'm in that area working. I've been working on these trucks since they came out and I can tell you I've only had a handful of customers ask me to check that fitting. Usually people don't want to pay the extra labor cost.
@@cincydieselrepair6893 I understand. This was my first Ford. I've accumulated a lot of new parts for this engine. Cam is shot so I'm assuming the crank is too. Off to the machine shop for me. 😑
@@cincydieselrepair6893 I torqued them with a torque wrench when I put them in. I fired up the enginuity and actual and desired rail are almost the same. The duty cycle is between 2-6% except when I rev it which it goes to 99.99. Does this still sound like the fuel tubes?
I think I would be looking at the fuel control actuator on the pump. There might be a function in there where you can demand the FCA completely open or completely closed.
I really don't see many head gasket issues with the these trucks but between the tune and lift I'm surprised this one made it 270k. I have never done studs with the cab on so wish me luck.
@@cincydieselrepair6893 Best of luck to you! and I haven't seen many either with head gasket issues. Mine has a tune but a very mild one. That hot tune I'm sure had alot to do with it!
@@cincydieselrepair6893 No problem I’ll be looking forward to watching I’m trying to get some traction going on my automotive channel as well got some projects lined up.
Let us built a new engine and we will make all our money in aftermarket parts. I don’t get ford engineers . 6.06.46.7😢. And by the way you’re going to need a car lift to maintain your vehicle.
I actually love the 6.0 engine for its simplicity. Had an 05 with a 03 turbo and turbo mount. My favorite problem with the 6.0 was when people would run them low on oil, and the truck would die when it came to an idle. I lost count on how many were towed to the shop because people didn't check their oil level. Put in a couple of quarts, and it would fire right up and run fantastic. I had the same guy come back 2 times on a flatbed just to have the oil topped off and send him on his way. Yes, I did see my share of the bad side of the 6.0 powerstroke.
