IPR 85% testing the Ford 6.0 Powerstroke diesel 

Diesel Tech Ron, still helping me out after taking the big journey. Rest In Peace and thanks for helping dummies like me keep my trucks on the road.

Ron was THE MAN. Still helping others get it fixed right the first time.

My Deepest Condolences . A True Auto , Truck / Gasoline , Diesel Tech Genius . He Will be sorely missed. But now Heven has a Genius to help them too with there problems. 😢 🙏

Sadly, Ron passed away in May of 2016, he was an inspiration to all and will be missed.

He is still helping people. My 04 has air coming out just like his example. Thank goodness it wasn't the pump like he said it is most likely on the 04.

God is still blessing this man and his family......i know a ton..but ron knows a ton more...its a pleasure watching his videos..if you can't learn anything off his videos..time.to put the tools down....i have been doing this for tons of years..and pretty much,ron is dead on.on his work...thanks once again...peace.i4i.

You are the man. Thanks for all the videos..

I’m a tech of 20 years and will still lean on Ron for a refresher. RIP my good man.

Muy bueno este diagnóstico muy eficiente para las fugas en la bomba de alta presión

Good job Ron, I am in the same boat also, E series Fords with stripped chassis. Good to know though, thanks I'll check out the website.

For all of you asking questions. Ron was killed in a tragic car accident. If you own a Ford diesel this channel is still worth a sub for the old videos. He was a super helpful guy and I miss him dearly. If you have any questions about your Ford please ask me or I can recommend some channels.

Great video!

Another thing to look at from the last post, so this is what the problem was the cam sensor Oring, which is above the starter motor on the passenger side between the engine and the fire wall, this was leaking oil on to the starter motor causing the start to short out, but the starter would still turn the engine over, but the starter would not turn fast enough to turn the motor enough revolutions, that why the SYC was at 0, so check your starter you can check how many amps it is pulling when turning the engine over, mine was 750 amps when it should be 350-400 amps the starter shorted out from the engine oil from the cam sensor

Bless you sir

Thank you for your video I appreciate it

Ron will bad dummy plugs also cause a low power condition? Btw great videos! Thanks for them, they have helpped me out with this 06 F250 6.0 a customer brought to me. I normally don't work on diesels but it's a friend of a friend so I'm just trying to help him out. I just finished installing a new oem oil cooler and egr cooler. While in there I also replaced the IPR screen/orings. Going to test drive it today for a bit to see if the power came back and that the CEL stays off this time. Lol. A dependable diesel shop replaced the egr valve due to egr codes. Well the CEL came back on while they were on a test drive. The shop told him they could either do a egr delete or replace the parts with oem ones because since the new egr valve didn't to the trick the egr cooler must be plugged or it failed. Which they were right, the cooler was 100% blocked from carbon build up. I quickly inspected the turbo and the shaft spun good and there wasn't any leaks on the exhaust turbine. Should have watched your other video about the VGT and how it can cause a low boost and low power condition. Crossing my fingers it runs better.

Would like to see a 6.7 turbo replacement. Thank you for helping others

You can feel the love of the craft, as he still continues to share, rest bro. And thank you!

Hi Ron, Thanks for all the great information. One question . Can you bench test a hpop from an '03 6.0?

Another good video. Thank you DTR!

Heres a little tech tip also. If you are doing dummy plugs and stand pipes, if you order the LCF dummy plug and stand pipe kit its cheaper then if you order them part by part because you cant get a kit for the 6.0. The part number from ford is 6E7Z-9A332-B

I really like your videos those help me a lot .. than you !!! Also I have a question. How much you charge for replace the oil pump

I'm a pretty good diesel guy when it comes to the 6.0 and 7.3 and the 5.9 Cummins but when I got a head scratcher of a problem I always refer to diesel techron!

Awsome

hey ron great video I work at a bus company with lots of 6.0 litres I did my first stc fitting and dummy plugs I went on online did some reading found that people put 12 volts and a ground to the ipr I noticed the air changes when I did this in your video you didn't do this was I just wasting me time or did I do something wrong thanks

I have a question on my 2006 6.0. It hiccupped a couple months ago and ran fine after that. Now the other day it started to run real rough. Bully Dog says #5 contribution failure. If I do a crank key out the engine has a definite lope. If I do a crank key out hot the lope is almost gone. Truck has never been pounded on and been very well maintained.

what if it's missing and low power and no start hot do all that go together

to: DieselTechRon ,nice video thanks for the time to train us . I am going to start working on diesel soon I am gasoline tech, My question is when you do the air leak test I believe you remove the ICP and connected the air leakage tester there, also you commanded open IPR with scanner is that right ? how about high oil pressure pump leaking or weak will you get it there too if you remove the oil filter will that be normal for air coming out there I was wondering because you are pressurizing high side?or can you also install the coupler air tester on the IPR too? does it matter thanks.

I just repleaced egr and oil cooler, i had no ficm sync i played wityh the wires and got the ficm to sinc now i have ipr over 85% i kept it extremely cleaned and changed oil and i dont have one of these adapters. Any ideas?

You said there should be normal air leakage around HP pump on the gear side, is the air leakage coming from around the shaft seal or is there a bleed off port near the gear? Thank you for the help.

Hi Ron i'm doing the air test and air is coming out of the 2 top oil return holes on the injectors is this normal? they start hissing about 4 to 5 mins after introducing air.

I got a 7.3 and took off the icp sensor and crank the engine and a little oil came out it didn't shot out dose that means its no good,and should i replace the ipr as well

🙏❤️

IF THE IPR IS BAD WILL IT ALWAYS THROW A CODE OR WILL YOU JUST HAVE HARD START ISSUES

Ron, When it comes to powering the IPR valve if you don't have access to an IDS how do you go about it and what are the rules if you use 12V what is the time limit and what amount of resting between? Then if you have one of the tools like the OTC one for supplying power to the valve does it also have a time limit?

we need a mechanics like you here in san Antonio ,,all mechanics sux even dealer ones .

Is there any way you could provide a step by step process for the removal of all parts/components just to get this far? I know with experience comes some tips/tricks and I'd like to not go about removing a bunch of unnecessary things just to get down that deep into the engine. Thanks Ron.

Did he say to update the high pressure pump cover?

What would a shop be charging for the STC ,standpipes and dummy plug job for labor? Rocky

Saludo de PR tengo una Ford 6.0 2006 le repare el motor y prende bien pero en segundo se a paga y ante de repararlo estaba trabajado bien lo que tenía el mal de ello liqueo de acite

Can a p0528 fan speed sensor code keep the truck from running...truck just shut off as it was driving and that is the only code I see...just replace the whole fan clutch?

ron you around ???

I have a 2005 ford 6 liter diesel I have done many upgrades just lately it's been hard to start and now it's no start. I bought a scan gage readings when turning the engine over are 84.7 IPR 48.5 FMP 0 SYC 1647 ICP any ideas on where to start or look

Hi my name is Jimmy I took off my passenger side high pressure oil rail to do the ball seals and I found a spring in there with a little a little flat foot that stuck on the bottom of the spring. It has good pressure over 600 while turning it over but my by iPR is at 85% any idea what that spring is or where I could have come from

I have a 2005 6.0 it won't start on its own. But it will start with ether. Then stay running. I'm running 24% ipr warm at idle. Is there an HPO Leak?

Hey Ron, I have a 2005 f 250 6.0 and for some reason the oring on the driver side stand pipe keep blowing apart can you give me any advice why this is happening, it's usually under load of 8k load

How did you close your irp before the air

Hey Ron could a no start hot be a ficm what are the chances. When it occurs it’s not a constant crank and it sounds like a voltage issue (batteries are good)

Do you think the "Fass Fuel System" would be beneficial for my 06 f250 6.0

Lots of great tips, but on our E350's at work I have a hard time doing a lot of these tests, no room....lol

lemme know when sites up dude! i want an account asap!
