Which 6.0 powerstroke year is best? In this video we are going to talk about what Powerstroke year is best to buy. The 6.0 powerstroke has been plagued with many issues. Now I have heard numerous things online about which year is best, but the truth is that many of the "fixes" ended up initially causing more issues before there were upgraded parts that eventually fixed the "fixes" As for engines there are 03-early 04, and in late 04 there were engine changes to the newer designs. there were small upgrades made throughout the engines productions like I talk about in the video. (dowel pins) We have both engine types on the truck. We have both 6.0 Powerstrokes on the channel with a built early 6.0 powerstrokes. The other truck is a late 04 ford 6.0 powerstroke. The 6.0 Powerstroke issues can all be fixed regardless of year. It really depends on which 6.0 powerstroke problems you want to fix really. The high pressure oil leaks. The issues with 6.0 powerstroke are different in each early and late.
So which 6.0 powerstroke year is best? That is up to you to decide.
The ford 6.0 powerstroke is a great engine to have. Once you have a built 6.0 powerstroke you will change your mind about the ford 6.0 powerstroke! what 6.0 powerstroke issues have you had? Like stated all of the 6.0 powerstroke problems are easy to fix.

@six0bros 3 месяца назад

What did you end up getting? The main reason 05s and up are bit nicer is really suspension related the engine itself are both kind of the same. Both have issues both have solutions. Both blow head gaskets at about the same rate. Swapping out for 7.3 parts is kind of a silly idea. One of the big upgrades to the 6.0 was increased capacity in the cooling system. I love 7.3s don't get me wrong but many people for cheap upgrades were putting 6.0 parts on 7.3 like the intercooler. Though that's really the only one I'm aware of maybe a trans cooler?

@sydliz1126 4 года назад

Most Powerstroke mechanics say 05-07 are the best years for the 6.0. Not only is the truck body and suspension modern, the engine is slightly different to fix the issues the 03-04 Powerstrokes had. A Bulletproofed or completely stock 05-07 6.0 is actually a good truck.

@six0bros 4 года назад

Suspension is truly the only mechanical reason to buy an 05 and up 6.0. Now I do prefer the newer oil rails, but later years are more likely to leak on the high pressure oil system than early years. The pump is more reliable. People do tend to state they're more reliable but they have little to nothing to back it up

I have a 2003 6.0 powerstroke. My stepson has a 2005 6.0. The only thing that is bad on my truck that keeps going out is the icp sensor. But my stepsons 05 6.0 with a tune and sinister everything plus the coil suspension is nothing but garbage. My truck before I bought it was used for work. An older man owned it and had a roofing company and he used this truck to tow every day. In this Texas heat. The only upgrades I have done to my truck is mishimoto Inter cooler pipes, cold air intake, blue spring upgrade and an 05 6.0 powerstroke intake elbow which I grabbed of my step sons truck because he bought a sinister one. I have 210k miles on stock oil cooler, stock head bolts stock egr. Yes my egr is still there. And my truck is dead nuts realignment thus far. I use it hard but give it good oil. I’ll make a video of it soon and post it. And as far as suspension goes, I prefer the leaf spring front end. I like stiff suspension. Much more heavier duty in my opinion. From my experience the 03 is reliable if left alone with no tune.

@six0bros 4 года назад

I am not really big sinister fan. I think your step sons truck just needs a good go through. I like the coil suspension for a nicer ride and they actually handle slightly better in my opinion.

I prefer the 05 -07's, but the 03's have some great features the others do not. The 03 has a turbo with a 10 blade turbine wheel and a 59mm compressor wheel. The 04's up began shrinking the turbos and by 05 they had a 13 blade turbine wheel and a 56mm compressor wheel. The 03 also has more aggressive camshaft specs and FICM tuning than the 04 up. If you can get an 03, the turbo and the cam make them very strong with some updating (egr delete, tuning, exhaust). You mentioned the 03 rocker arms with the metal clips. That is definitely the way to go if you can get a set. Ford no longer offers them, you will just have to buy them off an 03. If the plastic clip breaks, your rocker are will come off the pedestal leading to a catastrophic failure.

@six0bros 5 лет назад

@jdatwood7086 9 месяцев назад

There are several differences in the 18mm and 20mm heads. There were 4 casting revisions to the 18mm heads and one final revision where it received the 20mm heads also known as commonized heads. The 20mm has a thicker deck over bore which substantially reduced cracking they are known for. They also relocated the injector hold down slightly to again reduce the amount of cracking from the injector cup areas. A 20mm casted head is a superior design. To me the best is a 03’ motor with 20mm converted heads using the older rocker box and more reliable log style HPO setup.

@six0bros 6 месяцев назад

20mm heads still are pretty common for issues overall. for factory heads if someone had the valve seat machined out and had proper pressed in valve seats though I would think that is a big upgrade, along with O ring heads. If there wasnt solid aftermarket options I would agree though except I would want the valve job done still.

@six0bros 3 года назад

Man if it is running good I would just keep going. Just my opinion

@scooberdoober8272 3 года назад

6.0 Bros it runs fine but it does have a rockerbox gasket leak. Unfortunately to repair that, the head studs have to come out (AKA be replaced).

@six0bros 3 года назад

That sucks how bad is the leak

@scooberdoober8272 3 года назад

6.0 Bros it’s getting kinda bad now. It’s leaving a small puddle everytime I park. I don’t seem to be missing a noticeable amount of oil thought when I change it. I just did it a few days ago and the oil level was normal before the change.

@billwhitis9997 4 года назад

I've heard the 03 has a little more "umph" than the later years. I know the 10 blade turbo is a little larger, and there was something else, but I don't remember. Personally, I have an 04 with an 03 engine deleted and studded. I added a B+D exhaust, and an Odawg sr2 to a 4" exhaust. A lift pump of course. I just run a tow tune on it. It's a very happy motor.

@billwhitis9997 4 года назад

Oh, of course, the cam!

@six0bros 4 года назад

Yea the 03 engines are good. Despite what a lot of people will say. My 04 has an 03 engine and I love it. Cam along with the turbo make up most of the difference. Especially starting in 05 they went to a much smaller turbo.

@s.in.bagger9933 4 года назад

I just picked up a mid 03 and it's turning out to be a decent truck, but definitely expensive compared to my previous Cummins. It's had previous warranty work done to it by Ford a few years ago(new heads, head gaskets, EGR cooler, oil cooler, HPOP, new turbo, and a few other parts) So far I've done an EGR delete, upgraded oil cooler with viton seals throughout, new fuel/oil caps, motorcraft filters, fresh fluids, coolant filter, coolant cap, fleet belt, new pulleys, tensioner, 7.3 fan clutch, aluminum radiator, new hoses, cold air intake, cometic valve cover gaskets, and fuel bowl seals w/regulator and blue spring upgrade. It currently has a deleted cat and muffler, but I will eventually do a full 4" straight pipe exhaust. I won't ever tune it as I want it to live a long, happy, stress-free life. Thanks for the great information and I'm definitely subscribed!

Bpd has excellent parts do not get me wrong. However I am a big fan of options. I think competition helps keep everyone working hard to be the best.

I own Heavy Diesel Repair Shop. I also own 4 6.0's. Each of them All have had their own different issues... Here is the trick to prolong the life of your 6.0 DO NOT OVER BOOST A STOCK 6.0 you will blow head gaskets. change oil and filters every 8500 miles keep the batteries charged Pour 1 Quart of Auto Transmission Fluid into your fuel every other tank full. Oh keep the Body and Frame clean and treat both frame and undercarriage with an anti corrosion coating. They won't burn out before they RUST..... 03- F350 , 04 F-250 , 05 Excursion , 05 Excursion NOTE: There is not 1 diesel engine on the market that is issue free....They all have their ISSUES.

Such as realizing by the time the egr cooler failed the oil cooler was already toast. I do think every mechanic has their preferred style to work on.

@six0bros 4 года назад

Hey I am happy to help man. The 6.0 is a great engine you really just need someone that understands them. So if I understand correctly the truck runs rough and shuts off when the truck is warmed up? Do you have the ability to read engine information? If not there are cheap ways to do it. Most of the running rough and no start issues can be found through reading the following parameters. Injection control pressure, injector pressure regulator, fuel injector control module voltage, battery voltage, and sync, cam/crank sync, I'll refer to those in the abbreviated form, icp, ipr, ficm. Basically I need to know those numbers while cranking engine over, idle both cold and hot. For things to read information torque pro for android is like 5 bucks plus a blue tooth obd2 adapter which I'll get you a link for.

“I read that the 2003 6.0 - had to be built with many of the ‘Heavy Duty’ components from the 7.3 so it could be marketed earlier, (before International could ‘fully’ complete the new 6.0 engine!!”). The 2004 was (supposedly) built with the newly engineered ‘Sub Par’ engine parts that had no extended testing.

@johnvanderpoel2628 5 лет назад

Tommy C so the 03 is the most durable?

@six0bros 5 лет назад

I have not heard this before. However I do not believe it to be true since virtually no parts carry over into the 6.0 from the 7.3. Different rods and pistons, block heads pretty much everything is completely different

@tommyc6812 5 лет назад

“I was looking up the oil cooler (long ago) and saw that someone wrote that; the 2003 6.0 may have had a heavier unit!” - larger channels! (I don’t recall if the source was someone with ‘inside’ info from International.) Just wondering if anyone else had heard similar (rumours)??

@rustyaxelrod 5 лет назад

Tommy C- the oil cooler was updated but I’m not sure the updated one was ever used in production. It seems like it was 2010 or so when it was released. A couple of aftermarket companies made (make) a “heavy duty” oil cooler that had larger (and fewer) passages, the idea being it wouldn’t clog up as easily. Problem was they are not as efficient at cooling the oil so oil temp runs a little higher, making some people think they have a problem. The Ford update was the opposite, smaller passages and an extra row to cool the oil better and damn the clogging. If you buy a new oil cooler from Ford it will be the updated MAXFORCE unit. All of the original ones should be off the shelf by now. That would make your story true, just off a little on the timing.

@six0bros 6 месяцев назад

That is actually my favorite overall setup. The wavy oil rails give it such a nice idle and just a very smooth overall experience. Not that mine doesn't idle smooth it does but it's just not as nice as the wavy rails.

6.0 Bros I got lots of information from powerstroke help and SDS over the years, but yes I feel you could help newbies with what will more than likely be their first foray into the diesel world as it was for myself, I’ve now turned my attention to the TDI world.

@sbeezynukka 4 года назад

6.0 Bros the usual, 2 bad injectors, more thank likely leaky or bad head gaskets, oil cooler, would probably need to do all dummy plugs and stand pipes too! Also has the sticky reverse solenoid. There’s probably more stuff but that’s what I can remember

@rustyaxelrod 5 лет назад

I’m at 207k mi on mine, heads have never been off. Factory original head bolts. 2006, King Ranch, F250, Lariat, Super Duty, Powerstroke, FX4, CC, SRW, 20in Ultra Motorsports Goliath wheels. 2in leveling kit, Husky 16K roller hitch, ScanGaugeII. Sinister coolant filter. Blue spring. BPD EGR cooler. Riffraff CAC boots w/metal cold side tube. Oil Cooler, Stand Pipe, Dummy Plug and STC updates. Fumoto valves. Big Brass HFCM Thingy. Rotella ELC. DashBoss. '08 Mirrors. Mishimoto Rad and 200° stat. High Idle Mod. 140a Alt Upgrade. 8 fresh Ford Injectors @ 180k Miles. Ed's Ultra FICM w/Atlas40. GlowShift 3 in 1, Boost, Fuel Pressure, EGT gauge. I suspect I screwed up the injectors trying to polish the spool valves because it had a bad cold idle. Overall, I’m pretty happy with it but it hasn’t been trouble free. Almost all those things were changed as the original parts failed. It gets driven to work a lot, and pulls a 10k lb 5th wheel camper some weekends but mostly kinda local 2-4 hour trips. I bought it in 2010 I think and had no idea what I was in for lol, overall (across the board 😉) I’m very happy with it but heads up! You can’t ignore these 6.0’s. Even if you turn wrenches for a living, there is a learning curve, and it can kinda become a lifestyle. Also know that even a good honest shop can cost you a lot of money if they don’t know the 6.0. Anthony and Julie at SDS have spent years learning the specifics and they got it down now. Good call on the honorable mention there and good video as well. Trying to get through EVERYTHING in one video would be kinda hard but you covered a lot of ground here. Maybe should have mentioned the “commonized” engines, head casting/ dowel pins size/ rocker arm and injector hold down changes in this video. 👍

@six0bros 5 лет назад

I have thought about doing a part 2 of it for some other parts that I didnt get to or some odd stuff that doesnt really make a huge change but changes to things like the fuel lines up to the fuel bowl, cam profile which was mentioned in another comment. The change from metal to plastic rocker arm clips. There are a ton of them but I shot for the big ones

@six0bros 5 лет назад

Thank you also for the kind words man!

@rustyaxelrod 5 лет назад

6.0 Bros - no problem bro! It was a good video with a lot of good info, as you probably know, there’s a ton of bad info on the net. A part 2 would be cool but really you could make a whole series if you wanted to (and had the time). Correct filters, fuel pressure regulator, correct coolant, FICM tuning and voltages, etc. man, you could go on for days.

Usually the best year of any product is the last as the mfg has perfected the product to the best of their ability. !

@six0bros 6 месяцев назад

that is true however there really were not any major improvements. they ended up giving themselves new headaches. The only true improvement in reliability was from the newer HPOP however the rest of the system becomes much more prone to high pressure oil leaks after that. The main point I wanted to make with this video was to say that overall there was no year that was truly better or worse than others. just different problems but they could all be fixed at the end of the day.
