Wooooow that's alot
Yeah it was. Thanks for watching!
Did u upgrade ur wireing systems
Not yet. It's had other troubles lately. I have the parts for the upgrade still..
Thinking your ICP has failed open. Low pressure oil feeds the HPOP and ICP controls injector pressure from there.
We verified the ICP was good. Ended up being a leak in the hp oil system. My mechanic took care of it under warranty.
your not building pressure from the low pressure side.
Seems to be.. he got absolutely nothing on that long crank.
It was making low pressure oil. Ended up being leaks in the high pressure oil system. My mechanic took care of it under warranty.
IPR screen clogged? or Stand pipe/Dummy plug o-ring's are toast.. sounds like you need a 6.4 starter, Mine literally starts in under 2 seconds.. (2005 6.0)
It was orings in the hp oil system. I've got weak batteries that need to be replaced. I'll check into the 6.4 starter. Thanks for watching.
Our stories are quite similar except that I’m inferior to you by far! Dad was never into anything mechanical, learned a touch of basic maintenance in the army and now really trying to do my 6.0 work with TH-cam 😂
Thanks for watching. That's the way to do it. I love the TH-cam community for that.
This was exactly what I was looking for. My daddies 50 yr old delta has a frozen bearing and needs to be replaced. You showed me how and where to get bearings. Oh and great video as well.
Oh man so glad it helped. Thanks so much for watching!
Great video keep in mind its 320 at 2,000 rpm to see good voltage at ideal speed it’s always less. A 250 alternator will out 250 hot rated at low rpm at idle.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the info!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I bought a truck with the exact same issue and that spring part is missing. Why are people taking them off? Crazy! Could you tell me where you purchased that spring part? Thanks again
I got it at advance Auto or Auto zone. Thanks for watching!!
Absafknlutly useless video
I think the next time my truck dies via oil pressure, I may rip it apart? I have a less than 50k on my oil pump and IPR, maybe I will take off the valve covers, redo injector seals, stans, and gasket of valve cover. I think I am covered on the fuel with a newish pump, FICM (via Diesel Tech Ron, RIP), blue spring.
Just got mine back from the shop. I'll do an update soon.
I would just get rid of the ford
Very tempting at times. Had a Dodge before this. Guess I'll have to try GM next time.
When I had lifters fail there was needle bearings in that relief valve
That's scary. Did you year it down? Rebuild?
I’m doing a 6.0 egr and oil cooler right now, and mine is missing that spring and top to? The truck ran good but had steam and coolant dripping out of the exhaust.
Wow! That's no good. Do you have chocolate milk in the degas bottle? That was a mess when my oil cooler went.
I used a smoke machine....worked great.
I need to get me one. I researched them.
@paggre it was the best investment...Amazon has a good selection
Thad - I'm no expert by any stretch, but I saw somewhere that if the ICP doesn't get to 500 psi., the engine won't start. Probably no help, just info.
That is true. It needs 500-600psi to idle. Thanks for watching!!
Interesting to see how swollen that radiator hose was. Have you ever seen your degas bottle “puking” due to coolant pressures exceeding 15 psi? (I believe that is the cap rating). I put a coolant pressure gauge on my 6.0 to warn me of impending problems. You did good in noticing that failing hose in the driveway versus on the road.👍🏻 Hopefully it was just a poor quality hose that caused the deformation. Thanks for sharing.
A gauge is a great idea. I have about 125000 miles on the head studs and new gaskets. I've had no evidence of puking coolant. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Nicely finished vacuum project. Well done. Did you sell the truck? What state are you in?
Nope still have it. I'm in Florida.
I feel your pain! However, i disagree with your assessment that you wasted time. You now probably know more about a 6.0 vacuum system than most. You also searched, found, and notated those valuable schematics. Liked and subscribed!
Wow. Thanks so much. Appreciate the comments and view!
Come on guy😡 you went through all that to keep the dirty ass filter 😳🤷🏿♂️. Any parts store has it , replace that filter
It's about 1000 miles until an oil change. I'll take care of it then.
Great job on that repair! I wonder what would happen if you laid a known good op amp on top of the suspected bad one for troubleshooting?
Hmm. Do you mean physically on top and try to solder it down? Interesting. Some of the amps might still be working and then you would be doubling the load on the input.
@@paggre wonder if you lay the ic on top of the suspect one so the pins are touching without soldering? If the bad chip is holding the output low, it might not work though. If you see a signal on the output, that would tell you the ic has power and ground and you're looking at a bad chip.
@@Discretesignals Definitely interesting. That's worth a try.
@@paggre you could some how breadboard a circuit with that bad op amp to test that theory. That way if magic smoke does come out it's not a major loss.
@@Discretesignals right. Can't let out the magic smoke.
Someone really cool must have filmed that bass content
One of the coolest!!!
What gauge is that on top of your fuel filter cap?
That's a pressure gauge that I got off of Amazon. 0 - 100 psi I think. www.amazon.com/dp/B0C366DKFL?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Im not a mechanic either but I do work on all my own vehicles. Mechanic every garage here Will F U sideways. Charge things they never fixed. An cause issue so you come back.
Definitely. I try to do as much as I can and have time to. I'm thankful for my local mechanic. They have a million mile warranty. They have stood beside it multiple times for me. I've dealt with sooooo many bad shops though.
@@paggrerecently my truck needed an alignment and my wife to take it the guy was there not even 10 minutes and told her he's got 3500 worth of the repair for stuff that was already done by insurance co month prior.
@@Andrew-ju4be ugh. That kind of thing sucks.
im not a gynocologist but ill take a look at it
I have forscan for my 2018 f350 6.7 powerstroke. It is a great tool for sure. The 6.0 powerstroke sounds good, and when the issues it does have been fixed, they are a great motor.
Agreed. It's been a great truck. The 6.7's are great!
Typical power stroke FORD… enjoy. Go import a tundra diesel from Japan
No! powerstroke is the way to go
No thanks I'm good. Could go Fummins I suppose.
Lmao, and then what? Drive your toyota to the gay bar?
@@bored2death4404 haha to Joe Bidens PHag flag party maybe 🤔
Can’t argue with going with powerstroke or Cummins both great trucks I love my 6.7 power stroke I have a 160k happy miles on my baby my brother has 2018 3500 dully Cummins he tows with and that thing now has 400k went through one transmission but I think that was because he use to overload his rig and going up the grapevine in California is like a truck death sentence
The truck sounds great! What pipes did you from the downpipes all the way back ? I have high flow muffler with original diameter pipe ... the turbo whine is too loud for me .
Thanks! I have a 4" down pipe, 5" from there back to the muffler and then to the back. It's a diamond eye kit.
Oil filters dry cuz once you start turning the cab it drains to the oil pan
Thanks! Now I know.
Not only will the valve not have been pushed correctly, but that spring and ball act as a check valve, when the filter is in place, and cap on, oil cannot leave the filter housing. When you release, it allows the oil to flow back to the engine. and the filter to be removed cleanly. Great Video!
Awesome sir. Thanks for the comment and for watching! Hope you guys are doing great!!
What headlights. Do you have a link?
AUTOSAVER88 Headlight Assembly... www.amazon.com/dp/B074W5QXN9?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Forescan not foreskin
Ha. Yeah two different things.
23:59 did you notice the difference between The ICP desired vs the Actual ICP pressure? The Actual was 274 PSI and desired was 1400 or so. Thats why the engine wouldn't start. You hava a high pressure oil problem. A leak most likely.
I did see that. And thanks for the reply! I took it for a drive to get it to temp. I verified that it was crank no start hot. I verified one last time that the lpo was pumping fine into the bowl. I'm taking it to the shop that did the hpop. Maybe it's just the IPR. Otherwise I'll let them look for the leak. Thanks again for watching and replying.
You made my day and saved me some money and a lot of frustation. I love u youtube.
So glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
your high pressure oil pump has a little screen (it is called the IPR VALVE) on it that often gets clogged with dirt and other contaminants that often are the result of recent work being done on the engine. i think you can just buy the screen for the IPR. so often that screen is the issue. it can be replaced while not taking everything off. but it is hard to get to, extremely hard. look up Diesel Tech Ron (th-cam.com/users/DieselTechRon) he has great videos about these pressure problems. Here is a good one to begin with th-cam.com/video/-VFu-73mpSQ/w-d-xo.html. also a common issue is the oil pressure leaking in the 'stand pipe' or 'dummy plugs' which are located in the valve covers. hope this helps.
Looking forward to your next repair. Funny you stated you are much more familiar with electronics than automobiles because I'm a mechanic by trade, but love electronics as a hobby.
Thanks so much for watching!
You need to lay some countdown tracks for the services. Great job.
That's a good idea. Thanks!
And now, we just need to work it out live! 😁
Yes please!!!!
the return tube in the middle is missing a piece with the spring,,
Hmmm I'll have to look at that.
You're right. Tube replaced. Thanks!!
You were only making 280 HPO. That’s why it wouldn’t start not the fuel leak.
So you suppose I still have an oil issue?
And also thanks for all you do. Blessings to you and your family.
@@paggre my guess is your lpo relief valve was partially stuck making it hard to build oil pressure. Or your drain back valve had trash in it letting oil past it and when you cranked the truck without the filter you dislodged whatever it was or your truck was warm when you were cranking with the forscan and by the time you were done with the fuel filter had cooled enough to build oil pressure again which would mean you have a oil leak when hot creating a crank no start hot only.
That makes sense. Maybe I'll clean that lpo drain valve that you showed. Just to see if there's debris.
You definitely have a HPO issue. Your desired versus actual values are not even remotely close for the engine to run. Unplug the ICP sensor and try to start the engine. If engine starts, replace ICP sensor. If not, I suspect a massive leak or a faulty HPOP. Remove IPR valve and pressurize the system. Listen for leaks. If none found, you have a faulty pump. Any parts you purchase, get them from FORD! Aftermarket parts (including filters) do not work well in these Powerstroke engines. I've replaced many HPOP and IPR because the owner decided to save a few bucks on a cheap aftermarket filter......
Thank you, bought mine in 1996, now I have to replace the bearings, wasn't quite sure of the bottom, now I know!
Thanks for watching. I'm really thankful it helps.
I was seeing sparks so I checked and found that my lower thrust bearing had bit the dust. I am a very handy guy but this seemed daunting. Then I watched your video and took my 40 year old band saw, just like yours, apart and am ready to order the new bearing. TH-cam is pretty cool.
That is awesome. Glad it helped. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I love the stories while cleaning also that you were discovering how to do while recording this.
Thanks so much for watching! That was a first for me.
Do you a part number for the replacement thrust bearing? This is a perfect video!
Glad it helped. Here's the link: Thaekuns Set of 2 Thrust Bearings for Rockwell Delta 14" Band Saw 920-08-020-5352 SP-5352 a.co/d/hSW4sFu
You need a four gauge wire to your alternator to your battery
I have the wire.

Great idea, using epoxy putty! Hope she's still paddling like a charm. I have the exact same kayak, which I also bought second hand. Over here in England, they are branded as the Enigma Kayaks Pro Fishing 12. I'm in the process of repairing a graze to the bow keel. Lots of videos on repairing HDPE kayaks, but not so much on LLDPE. I will definitely be checking out your epoxy as an option down the line. Is the epoxy salt water safe? Thank you for sharing.
Hey thanks for watching! Yeah the epoxy is still holding strong. I live on the east coast of Florida. It's never seen the ocean but the brackish water of the intercoastal rivers. I appreciate your comments!
That thing is right on top, easiest alternator replacement ever.
Sure is. That's a great design
