    photos EGR and Oil Cooler Replacement in Pictures

    Well I started the teardown this week and here are pictures from work thru the Night of October 20th. I started earlier in the week removing the Batteries, charge pipes, Alternator, plastic anything and pulling the wiring harness up out of the way. When I couldnt break the right turbo bolt, I...

    Delete or replace EGR Cooler

    The element is all I need. The casting is not hurt so no need to replace it. Take a socket to knock out the element and then press it back in to the cover ever so lightly. I am worried that if I run the restore VC9 to clean the crap out of the system would that cause it to stop up the new oil...

    Delete or replace EGR Cooler

    I started on it again today but deceided that I would just wait on the mechanic to come Saturday evening to work on it. I believe I am going to order the Sinister Basic Solutions kit with the Coolant Filter. I wish I could have boiled the coolant system out before it started not wanting to run...

    Delete or replace EGR Cooler

    Well I started the tear down today. I havent ordered the parts yet as I wanted to make sure of rectangular or round if I decide to keep the EGR. I really want to delete it but worry of resale if I decide to sell it to someone who may be in a smog testing state. I have hit a stickler as I cannot...

    Delete or replace EGR Cooler

    I like your thinking on the fresh air in lieu of the sooty exhaust. I dont want to buy a programmer to turn the CEL off. My truck was constructed 11/03 so it is suppose to have the rectangular cooler instead of the round one. I cranked the truck to drive it into my shop and it ran smooth after...

    Delete or replace EGR Cooler

    Well ive decided its time to do one or the other. I am having to put about a gallon of water in every 200-300 miles. I cant decide if I want to just delete the cooler or replace it. Ive talked with some people who say that the engined was designed to have the cooler in there and the best thing...

    Question R&R EGR Cooler and Oil Cooler

    Well I think its time to consider deleting the EGR Cooler and I think probably will replace the Oil cooler while I'm in there. The truck has always puked a little coolant since I bought it 2 1/2 years ago and I think the puking is the sign of a semi- blocked oil cooler. It has never smoked any...

    Check to see if your oil is low or passed time to change or is it passed time to change your fuel filters?

    Auto Brochures

    Boy don't the brochures bring back memories like the first truck i ever had, 1968 F-100 flareside (stepside) with a long bed. Red in Color and a 240 ci six cylinder and 3 speed on the column. No power brakes, no power steering, no radio no AC but you could crawl over into the engine compartment...

    Question Who either has switched or been tempted with Ecoboost?

    I got a new company truck November 01, 2011. It a 2011 F150 crew cab 2WD with the 5.0L engine. It is a very good pickup but I don't think it would replace my 250. I do move farm equipment around and did so with a 150 prior to the 250. It got moved but there was no margin for error. It's not...

    2004 6.0 troubles

    Like Dogman says, electrical connections are bad. This engine has to have proper voltage or they will not function properly. Take both batteries out and have them tested individually. Clean all cables and battery post if the batteries check out ok. Reconnect them. If batteries re bad or even...

    Question why does my truck surge??

    Order yourself a Fumoto valve for the truck before you change the oil. It will sure help with future oil changes!

    Some F350's we just got transported

    I believe those cages are possibly limb risers. I've ridden with the congressional delegation out of DC in those trucks to review allocating federal rail funds to beef up the lines. We never got over about 15 mph in one. You just set back and mash the fuel or brake.

    Which one is Best,,,ScanGauge II or Edge CTS Monitor

    First of all, :SDD I don't have a gauge but wish I had a few. It's probably some of the best money you can spend on your truck. What part of Tennessee you from?
