Secret that will make your DIESEL Truck run FOREVER! | 6.4 fuel filter change 

My 6.4 has 422k miles. Oil every 5k.. fuel filters every 10k.. plus it was deleted at 5k miles. Lololol

Best 6.4 Powerstroke fuel filter change video! Thanks for taking the time to make it.

When I change the fuel filters, I do it with less than half a tank and park on an incline. I drain the lower filter housing 1st (without removing the filter), then change the upper filter. Next I change the lower filter. It's a lot less messy. A fine tooth, flex head ratchet is very convenient for changing the lower filter. You also want to drain the fuel/water separator (lower filter drain valve) a few times between filter changes to make sure there is no water. You only need to drain a little to see if there's any water. The high pressure injection pump makes up to 25,000 psi and a little bit of water will kill it 2008 F250 with 293,000 miles.

Hi, there recently I bought a F-350 2008 Super duty 4x4 diesel. thank for your video and maintenance tips.

Have an 08 I bought with 50k did exhaust and e g r cold air intake mini max tuned added amsoil oil bypass filter I change every third oil change filters down to 2 microns also put in amsoil coolant filter and every time I change the fuel filters I always get air lock so I grabbed a banjo bolt that goes to the high point on the fuel cooler drilled and tapped it screwed in a Schrader valve so now when I air lock I take out the core shove a ten foot length of clear vinyl chloride tubing shoving other end into the fuel tank then hit the key on and wait for the bubbles to disappear in the tubing pull tubing off Schrader valve replace the core and start her up I just leave it in place putting the plastic dust cap over it till next filter change

All the years I had my 6.0, I never greased my o rings and they never got stuck. Takes more than a fuel filter change to keep a 6.0 or 6.4 running forever. Do your maintenance per the schedule and the truck will never strand you. If the 6.4 pump is same as 6.0 it's the hfcm. Drop the archoil and run amsoil. Better oil goes farther than additives.

Thanks Bud……much appreciated.

I HAVE 2008 F350 srw, 6.4 longbox, crew cab, 4X4 FX4 bought new. At this day has 30,846 miles. 100% stock. I just don't know what to do with it.

Buy a FASS fuel system. Definitely a must upgrade.

DEISEIL Ron has a video on his channel how to properly change these filters.

Quick question do you still the the 6.4 truck that you make videos just curious watch a lot of your videos??

If you remove the bottom filter first, you won't have to deal with all of the fuel in the upper filter housing since it will drain down.

Does Joseph Smith know youre using his parking lot? 😂

Well there may be one or two the junk ford 6.4 out there that are still living but I have an 08 450 with the 6.4 in it that was blown with only 54k miles on it. Truck was bought new no mods done dealer did all maintenance on the truck on schedule down to the wiper blades. Only Ford techs ever touched this truck and it was done at the dealership. Ford wouldn’t help replace the motor because it was technically out of warranty by 30days when it got towed in to the dealership. Paid to have new motor installed at a tone of $22K with only a 1 year warranty. Two months after that the high pressure fuel pump went out. That was again “not under warranty”. Then the whole front end had to be replaced. Then the front drive shaft let go and took the transmission, transfer case, fuel pump/filter, 3 hard fuel lines, cross member and a few other odds and ends out. Now it’s been back in for the turbo back pressure switch. Again dealership maintained. So word of advice do not buy a Ford diesel after they quit with the 7.3l this truck now only has a total of 115k miles on it on the frame and I could of bought this truck like three times for what I have in repairs for this junk. Ford needs to do better. Yes I love my ford trucks but they need to prove to me they will last before I ever buy another truck. It’s hard to spend $90,000 plus on a truck you may have to spend another $40,000 on in 3 years once that warranty runs out to keep it running 🤷‍♂️

What’s the name of this song on the intro?

The Ford Motorcraft Filters are made by Racor.

how often are your draining at the lower fuel filter ??? any additive in diesel? coolant filter helpful?

Hey brother, how's the 6.4 these days? Looking to buy an 08 F250 6.4L. It has 103,000 and was deleted at 101,000. It's a beautiful truck, but I'm a little hesitant on buying it just because of the stereotype around it.

I had to sub everyone else wasn’t making sense to me

Caps are over-tighten, you will play hell removing them next time.

Great pickup, just not a fan of the engine.

You need to delete it .

thats why your truck is fucked, you still have your def system. and its actually emissions system. there is no def fluid in these systems

Never let the fuel drain back into the bowl. such a rookie move. You just introduced contaminates back. You have a lot to learn, Never use Wix as you blabbed only motocraft. SMH

Ive got 141000. Miles on my 6.4 not deleted . Thinking about doing a egr delete ,great video thx .safe travels

Thank you for making this video. I am considering about owning one soon. Hope you make more videos about your truck. Want to learn more from you.

300,000 miles and you still have your EGR and DPF installed?? thats crazy and reallly unusual and rare. Have any insight about that?

LOL my truck pulled a 5th Wheel for like 200k KMs trans has had it $5k trans parts $2k installation

There’s no way that pickup hasn’t had an engine put in if it’s not deleted 🤣

Is it safe to drain off the filter back into the engine? Seems like it would carry a bunch of particles past the filter housing.

Is it me or is your steering loose ?

08, 6.4L - 385k egr and dpf delete. Chipped and tuned with mini maxx , rotella T4 every 5k. Motorcraft filters, i do fuel and oil filters every 5k. Every now and then i extend to 6 or 7k between changes if im to busy. But i never let it get beyond 7k between changes. I also put one quart of power punch in on every change.

The Ram guys here!! Which filter do you prefer for a 6.7 Cummins in a ram 2500/5500 heavy duty? - A Mopar or Fleetguard?

You showed how not to do everything with this service. I have a 6.4 also with a plugged dpf. Can you make a video of that so I know what not to do there too?

Great truck till the front cover blows a hole in it from cavitation

In case someone doesn't know there is a thing called ghost tune. You can hollow out your dpf and over write the factory computer. Scanner will say every is at 100 percent. Factory 6.4 is good for 115000 if you are lucky. Coolant filter? Little sand?

Wtf if you gotta cycle the key 8 times 🙄 then you need a new lift pump. I do mine 2 times and it startes right up.

How many Radiators have you all been through? #5 for me 2-OEM, 3- Mishi's

My 2010 6.4 made it to 96000 and the motor went. I put a new motor in this year and yes it is brand new ford factory 6.4 and turbos 😢 24,000 dollars later I hate this truck. Dpf filter going out new motor puffs white smoke everything it Regens I'm over it.

Excellent video!!

I have 4 6.4 trucks all over 285k. Great trucks powerful. People just believe in maintaining vehicles lol

Was your fuel tank low when you did the lower filter? Mine was still draining after a few minutes(~2.5 gal) so I thought screw it and still got diesel everywhere.
