I'm glad you showed/explained the cleaning process you use. I saw the video where you worked on Garys' duelly, was wondering about how you got it so clean and wondered about getting crud in all the openings. Also, I have a bone to pick with Sinister Diesel. Their stuff is so over priced and the stuff I've bought is junk. I used to work in a machine shop that did all the work for the San Diego city bus system. Cleanliness is next to Godliness with all auto mechanicing. One thing that really surprises me is how many knowledgable mechanics on you tube let the coolant/water from the passenger side block drain spray all over the starter. I just put a new one in and I'm going to remove it and stuff a rag in the opening for the first drain and hose water flush. Then when I do a flush with the hose and the engine running, I'm going to go crazy on wrapping it in a plastic bag and taping it on.

I'm thinking about replacing the oil cooler in my 2006 powerstroke F350. Cruising on level ground the delta runs about 8 degrees. This last summer, towing my 5000 lbs trailer up a long grade on a warm day, the coolant temp got up to about 210 and delta to over 20. I've read somewhere that the current version of the Ford oil cooler has some design upgrades and takes the level-cruise delta down to about 2-5 degrees. What is your experience?. Your advise please. Thanks very much in advance!

@gabelambert5274 Год назад

Great video! Have you ever flushed the oil cooler after its removed from engine? Realize if its removed ya might as well replace it but my 285k 6.0 sprung a leak at the oil cooler base and was gonna remove it and replace the seals and re-install. What’s your thoughts?

I found your video looking for advice on just simply checking the coolant level. Still not 100% sure if it's EO first thing in the AM or remove cap and crack it up. I monitor my 03 6.0 motor temps thru torque pro and have the delta gauge. Not hauling much I've seen 20° difference cruising at 75-80 mph with outdoor temps 85°-90°+ eot 200 +/- and ect 185°+/- 5°. I can't find any temp recordings to look for under any circumstances. I've heard 190° coolant level is ideal and up to 15° delta so 200 oil temp. Any info on outside temps to motor temps?

@AutomedicGarage 2 года назад

I’ve never gotten that scientific with it but the 15 degrees is key you will run hotter coolant temps and oil temps when it’s hotter obviously but maintaining under the 15 degrees is key, as far as coolant level I maintain a lower level than the indicator on the degas bottle. Having more expansion room is key on the 6.0. Thanks for watching. Hope that helped.

Yes the air plus water pressure helps, the system is meant to handle 16 psi so I wouldn’t overdue it but it will hold more than that. I had one of those but loaned it out and went back to my old go to for this video. People often cheap out and don’t use a ford oem cooler cause they want to save a little money when the passages are smaller in their aftermarket or don’t have as many rows and therefore don’t cool efficiently.

@AutomedicGarage Год назад

So when I use cat I use the concentrate elc that is a light red pinkish color, in the last year I have swapped to rotella elc, it’s slightly cheaper and is readily available at any tractor supply or co-op. My local oreillys now stocks it for me also since I buy so much. Remember to use distilled water for the final flush and diluting the coolant to 50/50 and go all the way and flush the heater core and remove the block plugs. Hope that helps

Everything looks great, until you put that Sinister Diesel trash on it. Have fun when that filter nipple breaks free from the dab of glue they use to keep if from backing out of the billet block. It'll do it on the oil high-bypass oil filtration block as well, and you'll wonder why your filter keeps loosening and blowing oil onto the ground. I know this video is a year old, but Sinister is trash, and everyone should avoid them and their junk.

@@ramirosolis3277 Yes, three separate times I was left stranded on the side of the road having dumped half my oil. I finally figured out it was the nipple that was the issue when I took the oil filter off after the third failure and the nipple came with it. I pulled the billet block and that's when I saw the bit of glue that was holding the nipple in place on the nipple and the block. The filter and nipple would vibrate out just enough to break the seal. But when I unscrewed it, the nipple must have had just enough glue on it to make it stay in place, except the third time when it came out attached to the filter! After I discovered the issues I ripped the entire assembly out and went back to stock. Edit: The original poster said to use red Loctite to fix it. No way would I do that. The nipple should be swaged in. It's shoddy manufacturing.

@williamshultz3598 Год назад

The best way to do a coolant flush is to drain all the system. Buy a big whole house water filter and install into the heater hose before the heater core. Run straight white vinegar in it and put a 100 miles on it. Repeat this 3 times changing the whole house filter every 50 miles. Install new vinegar every 100 miles. Then flush vinegar and get antifreeze back in the motor before flash rust starts. Put 500 miles on it, then change the oil cooler.

Pro tip: after you flush, remove only the block plug, put water hose in degas bottle and wait for fill. Turn your heater ON and start the engine. This will remove a lot of contamination

@AutomedicGarage 2 года назад

Yes, that’s what I did. I flush throughly with hose water with both plugs out. Then I fill one last time with distilled and drain to eliminate as much tap water as I can. Thanks for watching.

Yes I did remove block plugs and flush through degas with hose water then I put plugs back in, fill with distilled run it then drain again to remove as much of the tap water as possible so it has a true 50/50 distilled anti freeze mix. When I fill after repairs. Thanks for watching.

How much time should i set aside to do this job (oil cooler swap) i will do the backflush first prevous day

@AutomedicGarage 3 месяца назад

Doing a quality flush and swapping the cooler takes the better part of a 8 hr day for me. If it’s your first time plan on 2 days and take your time and do it right.

Was all good until you left out that small o ring the threaded bolt goes threw

@AutomedicGarage Год назад

I caught it off camera and put it in. If you read the comments all the other arm chair mechanics have commented you would have read that I did.

Pretty sure you forgot the o ring under the cooler

@AutomedicGarage 5 месяцев назад

Yep, I saw it on the table after that take. It went in just didn’t retake the shot.

@jeffsaxton2847 5 месяцев назад

@AutomedicGarage good deal! I just did my oil cooler. Heads are off getting surfaced, new valve guides, valves and springs with a slight increase in spring pressure. Also having him o ring the head. New 6.4 Pushrods and valve bridges. Deleting the egr and I'm sure there's something else I'm missing! Oh, new pipes and dummy plugs. I'm sure I'm forgetting something else. Good video though!

Jesus, TEST DONT GUESS, the people that are considering part swapping àre clueless, I hate fixing theses motors because aftermarket gauges and RU-vid told you so

@AutomedicGarage Месяц назад

What did I guess at? Deltas we’re high, how is that guessing? I didn’t know using a scanner with diagnostic software to monitor temps is “aftermarket” it’s literally how you diagnose most anything.

@@AutomedicGarage I wasn't referring to you but the comments mentioning changing parts because they think they need it, you are spot on with proper scan tool data.

You forgot to install one small o'ring on the base of oil cooler.

@AutomedicGarage Год назад

No. It’s there.

@oscarcrespo9365 Год назад

@@AutomedicGarage I've watched that important detail and you didn't put it on. There are 2 small o'ring. One goes in the center of the oil cooler base and the other one is inside of an hexagonal head really close to the other o'ring that I mentioned, between the two big ones. Check the video one more time.

@@oscarcrespo9365 yes in the video it was missing, I meant I caught it after torquing and re-torqued off camera however, that oring doesn’t seal anything, it’s where the stud goes through the cover. Often times it’s never in 6.0s I take apart. But you caught it in the video. Good job.
