Great video. I know a few people have made a “what to look for when buying a 6.0 video”, but with your awesome experience I wouldn’t mind seeing one. You da man!
Thanks for the info. brother. I'm a mechanic for a school district and we have a mini bus that has a 6.0 and I'm dealing with a crank, no start situation. Watched your video, took some notes and will knock it out tomorrow. Thanks again.
Thanks for these videos, Drew! I definitely understand the whole oil system with the 6.0 know. Where to look and how to diagnose the issue. Thanks to your videos and Gary’s truck 😜😂 I have an 05 and I’m about to do an overhaul on the oil system. I’ve put 20k miles on it since I bought the truck and it runs fine. Sometimes it times a few seconds to turn over or I gotta stop, turn it once more and it comes on. I feel like this happens when it’s time for an oil change or really really hot out here in Tx.
Man alive! Your shared knowledge and effort to post this video saved me a lot of aggravation and saved me from the risks of handing it over to the "professional" mechanic. I am a horticulturist but were I not the primary mechanic on my '07 550, with help from Diesel Tech Ron (missed greatly), Makuolco and you, I would be much the poorer in money, skills and specialty tools. A splinter of metal 1/3 the size of a pinky nail clipping was the problem. W/O your video I would have gone down a lot of dead end rabbit holes. Thank you !
Thanks for the compliment. I actually enjoy the diagnosing part of the job, I guess it’s the paramedic part of me seeing as that’s what I signed up for being a paramedic but most of the time I’m transporting bs to the hospital and nothing that’s a true emergency.
Awesome, glad it helped. Feel free to give a super thanks or make a donation to our venmo. venmo.com/code?user_id=3876038023055136091&created=1693077627.861697&printed=1
Heya, I'm over here working on a 6.0 van E350, same powerplant. Was getting low oil pressure, ICP at 50 max after 15 sec of crank; pulled low pressure relief valve, was sticking but no debris; after cleaning still 50 max at ICP
Bro what the hell ..the same truck ..and once again ..more helpful tips tricks ..and dead on fix ..ooo can do me a favor as I watch your videos while your cranking let us know which pid are suppose to be looking at the second time around we do tend to forget the first time you said it ..but 5 star in my book ..thank you for sharing your knowledge ..
Yea, he bought a 6.0 and didn’t get me to look it over first and he’s now regretting that. And it doesn’t have studs either so I’m sure if he keeps it the cab will be getting raised again for that even though I tried to get him to let me do it while it was up but money was tight for him. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much. My 04 6.0 decided to break in all places all at once. If it weren’t for you I would be paying cash I don’t have. I wish you the best. Another Q. I looked into Some things I still don’t have low oil pressure but with your troubleshooting guide my p Oil filter plunder broke. I’m assuming that’s the culprit. I’m hoping this is one of the final things that has to be fixed before it starts running.
I’m going through this exact problem right now. I’m only building about 300-400 on the IPR. If I give it a shot of starting fluid it’ll start. That worked a few times, but now it’ll start, but only run for a few seconds. Hoping to start looking into things today.
@@saltycrowgarage7215 not yet. With no money right now, and health issues, it’s in limbo sadly. I’m going to try swapping some things from my 04(nov, so same components), and see what happens. Just been in copious amounts of pain. Hoping to try some things later this week. Thank you for asking.
My friend, your videos have been a life saver time and time again. My only question with this one specifically: if it does fill with oil, is it as simple as replacing the filter cap so that it’s long enough to trigger the drain vac?
Definitely going to check and see if the oil pressure builds like you did but my question now is would that effect it when it starts cold but not when its hot???
Where do you hook up a pressure guage to test actual psi of low oil pressure? I have no start, originally had ipr code,, replaced,,, still no start, so bought a scan guage 3 ,, have ficm volts 48 ficm logic 10.5-11, ficm sync 1 ficm cam and crank yes,,rpm 190,,icp .24v ,,icp takes a bit to get to 225 then halts , clean relief valve, nothing in there but tight, pulled and cleaned,,, oil fills in about 10 seconds, im stumped ,, any ideas,, thanks,,pat
We have a long crank to start cold and no start when hot. It cranks a long time before the dash shows oil pressure but once it shows it starts up. Just got done replacing all injector and fuel rail nipple o-rings. Oil filter gets oil about as fast as you showed in this video. Oil pump plug came out no issues. It slid out with no magnet, and no metal was found. Pulled the ipr and screen looked good, no metal found.
@AutomedicGarage Not really much. About an hr sitting. I just shut it off again, and it refuses to re-start. I'll have to wait till it cools down to start it again.
@AutomedicGarage I did the air test at the sensor, regulator, and also the rail. It had what sounded like air leaking under both left and right sides under the rail somewhere. I didn't feel any air and tried pouring oil all over with no luck. It sounded the same before and after all the seals were replaced. Since I did the injector and nipple o-rings, it starts more quickly cold than it did before oring replacement. Ipr goes to 45 upon startup and stay around 25-27 running. When it gets hot, ipr is still 25 or so. While running, demand fuel pressure/icp 580 and actual stays 570-580. When hot and shut off, then try to restart, ipr goes to 85, demand pressure is 652 and actual pressure hovers around 345-365 with icp voltage at .56-.64. Will not start. When it starts cold, it runs great with no issues. I did actuate the ipr with my scanner while I was doing the air test, and it shut off the air supply the more it was activated. Looking at other videos, I came across dieseltechRon. He mentioned the stc coupling. I didn't replace that, but it's not available at O'reillys, and neither is the low-pressure oil pump, so I'll call the dealer tomorrow and check on cost.
@@okhotrodder unplug your icp, run it that way see if there’s a difference. Gotta get the stc at ford and whatever you do don’t buy a LPOP or stc from oreillys.
Please send mire videos to lesrn hiw to work on our on truck,because here where i live can nit find people that nows how too woork in this tipe of trucks thanks much friend i Woody like to SEE more of your videos
Hi there which software do you have in this video that shows the oil pressure act great video also if it not the valve under the flywheel stuck what is it.
great video, are you reading ICP psi? or Kpa? cant really see on screen, thank u, algo if i do have the good oil pressure from engine pump to filter housing, but not high pump pressure at all, should i point to high pressure pump?
If its a early 6.0 (03-early 04) yes, pumps are prone to get weak and the j tube orings can blow also. If it’s late 04 or newer could be stand pipes, dummy plugs or stc fitting(if it still has one) late model pumps don’t typically go bad. You really need to pressure test the Hpo system to really tell the story if your low pressure pump is doing it’s job. And yes I’m reading psi not Kpa
My truck is studded, sct tuned, fully deleted straight piped and it had supposedly been well taken care of by a friend. On a cold or warm start mine cranks twice or 3 times over before it starts compared to the one in your video. Is there something wrong with it,
Thank you again. I went and with the checks found that the oil tube broke - the plastic part of it. I found a piece inside the where the oil sits. I replaced that part. The oil builds up like in the video. Any chance that some plastic made its way to something else where it’s not building up pressure? What should I look for? My oil gauge still reads zero.
Hey i have a 7.3L on a F350 im having hell getting it started. it will crank wont start. i replaced the IPR and the Cam Sensor. i unplugged the ICP to bypass that still didnt start. yesterday i drained the fuel bowl using the valve on the side. drained it went back to the ignite turned the key fired up INSTANTLY and died after 5 seconds. i went and got some diesel becuase i was at 1/4th a tank went to start it again FIRED right up. IDLED terrible! for like 5 minutes then the idle was fine i turned it off and started it again firing right up again running smooth. took it for a drive was perfect. came back the next day and the same thing as before cranks but wont start. ANY ideas? only has 131k miles on it
How much diesel did you put in it after being at a 1/4? If you only added a few gallons and parked on a incline or anything and the pickup is broke off it may be sucking straight air again.
Hi there. U have such a good videos!I recommend You're Chanel for others. My 2005 F250 6.0diesel when my cold engine starts, isn't going too High idle to 1000rpm engine wormup. Its still only 670-700 RPM. What is can cause a trouble for this??
@@AutomedicGarage Outside is 19C engine coolant 90F I have a so cheap scanner that's my scanner says 90F. 1st in the morning when I start engine it doesn't go high 1000rpm Stays on the same 678rpm.
I have an 06 6.0 with a crank no start. Quit on me going 80 in the fast lane and I had to coast over to the side. Was able to get it going eventually and got it home over an hour away. The next day it started for a min and then quit. Couldnt get it started again. Thought it was the fuel pump so tried replacing that and its still not getting fuel to the bowl. Something in the pump or by the bowl doesnt sound right. Im also going to check the oil pressure as you did here tomorrow. Any help where to start next with the fuel issue would be much appreciated!
I have a 2004 F350 rebuilt fuel injectors now fuel injectors, 13 and four are not working did a dionostic scan no codes for fuel injectors but when I disable one ate a time numbers 1,2 and 4 makes no change I have code for incorrect exhaust recirculation and a code for turbo no back pressure I have replace power side Ficm , fuel injector wire harness nipple cups stand pipes blue spring fuel filters oil filter sending unit in fuel tank and rebuilt all the injectors with new springs and orings can you give me any help on this issue it’s on a 2004 6.0 power stroke
so, i pulled my relief valve out and of course it sprung out at me, cleaned it up good and reinstalled, went top side and was watching my reservoir while key off and the reservoir didnt fill….i also tried depressing the plunger in the reservoir still no change….is this a bad lpop? its a 2006 f250 6.0
DO NOT USE STARTING FLUID!!! If you pumping LPO this isn’t your problem. What’s your icp, ipr%, FICM main and FICM sync say when cranking? What’s your fuel pressure? This video only applies if your not making low pressure oil. If you keep throwing starting fluid at a truck your gonna crack a piston or rings.
Only takes 7psi to read on the dash. The dash oil pressure is not priority if battery voltage is low either. So no if the filter housing fills relatively quick you should have gauge unless you have pretty weak batteries
It might hit just due to the simple fact of the compression igniting the ether but it won’t “overcome” a bad icp. Most times a bad icp doesn’t give you a no start, you might have erratic idle or long start etc. the best way to determine if it’s bad is see what the voltage is key on engine off. Or just unplug it. It will run without it cause the pcm has a default pressure it goes to if it isn’t getting any feedback from the icp.
@@AutomedicGarage ok thank you. Doesn’t sound like my problem. I had to use the ether trick to get back to Nashville last night from Indiana with a heavy load. Mine runs fine once started but I’ll shut it off at the pump to get diesel and it doesn’t want to start back. I changed both filters on the side of the road yesterday and it’s still doing it
Pull the low oil pressure pump. Check gears for scarring. If the gears are scarred. What normally causes this is a lifter has come apart and the needles out of that lifter has gone through the pump. Next step is to pull the engine. And watch bank account go empty.
Needs to be air tested then to see if it standpipes, dummy plugs, nipple cups, injector orings or stc fitting. I have another crank no start video showing air testing and replacing standpipes and dummy plugs.
my 03 6.0 started having an issue going full throttle then died going up a small hill one day. now it just cranks and cranks it will start with ether but wont stay running for longer than 5-6 seconds any idea what the issue might be?
Don’t use eyther unless you like the idea of a cracked piston. Check icp and ipr while cranking and check fuel pressure, anything less than 45 psi and your looking at a week fuel pump. Could also be your in tank pickup has broke off.
Hello I have a quick question I have a truck in my yard that has the same problem but one of the guys sprayed starter fluid and it will start right up and run fine
Love the video! But I'm Ole School, would have yanked that 6.0 brick out and replaced with a 7.3 :) And WTHeck, Ford's 07 6.0 had it right and tight... then discontued it for 6.4??
@@AutomedicGarage That's why I'm subscribed to your channel... Need me to be Learn't on how to work on the 6.0s. My Cuz has a 04' W/ a 6.0 and he's mechanicaly challenged to say the least, Best his Heart :) Also looking on how to make it Bullett Proof! And del-leted the crap that kills these motors!
So I did your oil test, got oil, did your bubble test from another video for injectors, no bubbles. Still just cranks no start. New icp, new ipr. Kinda wants to kick over when ether is used. Oil quality is new, filter new, level at max. Where else should I look? Based on my work schedule this thing has been down for months now and if you weren’t just shy of 3 hours away I’d of already brought it to you, lol! Thanks in advance!
@@AutomedicGarage I don’t have that tough book monitoring setup you have but have been contemplating getting it. Do you recommend I get it for more accurate diagnosis?
So this happened from running out of fuel? I ran out of fuel and watch my gauges lose pressure and haven’t started since. I’m going to try this tomorrow
When I do head gaskets and studs at the bare minimum I add in glow plugs, harnesses and have the heads looked over by my machine shop to check for any cracks or warping. So the price all depends on what all we do. A lot of times we go on and do an oil cooler and new injectors along with stand pipes and dummy plugs(04.5-07) or if it’s a 03-04 a hpop. Other factors such as do you know you have an updated STC fitting, is it egr deleted. Do you have contribution issues with injectors. A lot factors in. It would be easier to discuss over the phone. My contact info is on my website.
Hey man I have a 03 6.0 I’ve owned it for 2 years and ever since I owned it every morning no matter hot or cold it always takes 3 or 4 tries until it starts takes longer to build oil pressure but after today I was going down the highway and the truck lost oil pressure and power and she died and now I’m at a crank no start building no oil pressure any ideas of what it could be ?
Being a 03 with the round aluminum pump I my first guess would be the pump itself. Could be the j tube or even a injector seal but I’d bet money on the pump. Have you watched my crank no start diagnosis video? It would help you work your way through it.
Sounds like your FICM is out. What’s your FICM voltage key on? When you crank it over do you have sync? If you have neither check your 3 FICM connections and check the ground on the rear most intake bolt on the drivers side.
So measuring a fliter like that will. Be the same no matter what cap you run. The difference is on top of yhe flange. The cap height another words. The seal flange down will be the same.
The distance that matters is from the where the cap seats onto the housing to the bottom of the filter. Some cheap caps don’t hold the filter firmly either so it will recess more also.
If you have 1400 icp then you don’t have a base oil pressure problem. Hpop has to get oil from LPOP to build pressure. Have you pulled your filter and looked at your drain back valve? What oil filter are you running? Oem filter cap?
@@AutomedicGarage yes i actualy followed your instructions on your video. I have the sinister bypass oil filter system. I measured the oil filter and cap like you did and got the same length as you did. And i also cranked and the oil filter reservoir filled up with oil. So thats not the issue. I have swapped iprs about 5 different times. After a very long crank an ebay ipr valve started my truck but idles high and erratic. Installed an oem ford and will not start. I do get rpms and base oil pressure. But only after a very long crank times. Ive been working at it for months and cannot for the life of me figure this one out. 47 ipr and 1400 on icp is what my scan gauge reads with oem new ipr valve but no start. Just crank.
I have 6.0 2005 mine doesn't want to start when its cold outside but starts fine when its above 60 degrees any idea has an new FICM in it, is it possible oil weight? welcome any thoughts
@@AutomedicGarage no i haven't it does start when warm but it didn't start till it had 1100+ # oil pressure runs good starts normally after first starting, could it a problem with fuel pressure

Are you referring to the oil filter stand pipe or the drain back valve?
Is there a torque spec for the low pressure relief valve?????
I have the early 04. I shut mine off the other day and now it just cranks and no start. I am being told its my hpop but my oil well is filling fine.
Hpop doesn’t fill your filter housing, the LPOP does. Being a early 04 it’s highly likely your hpop has crapped out.
What number is the tool to remove a screw?
My power stroke when is hot dot run start but don’t run I reemplace IPR icp oil pump allready
Looks like the filter bypass valve on the top of the standpipe is broken
What do you torque the valve to?

IDLED terrible! for like 5 minutes then the idle was fine i turned it off and started it again firing right up again running smooth. took it for a drive was perfect. came back the next day and the same thing as before cranks but wont start. ANY ideas? only has 131k miles on it
How much diesel did you put in it after being at a 1/4? If you only added a few gallons and parked on a incline or anything and the pickup is broke off it may be sucking straight air again.
Hi there. U have such a good videos!I recommend You're Chanel for others. My 2005 F250 6.0diesel when my cold engine starts, isn't going too High idle to 1000rpm engine wormup. Its still only 670-700 RPM. What is can cause a trouble for this??
What is your coolant temp saying when you crank up?
@@AutomedicGarage Outside is 19C engine coolant 90F I have a so cheap scanner that's my scanner says 90F. 1st in the morning when I start engine it doesn't go high 1000rpm Stays on the same 678rpm.
Great info thanks. What scan tool is are you using here or recommend ?

I have an 06 6.0 with a crank no start. Quit on me going 80 in the fast lane and I had to coast over to the side. Was able to get it going eventually and got it home over an hour away. The next day it started for a min and then quit. Couldnt get it started again. Thought it was the fuel pump so tried replacing that and its still not getting fuel to the bowl. Something in the pump or by the bowl doesnt sound right. Im also going to check the oil pressure as you did here tomorrow. Any help where to start next with the fuel issue would be much appreciated!
What’s your fuel level? What’s your fuel pressure? Has your in tank pickup been replaced?
I have a 2004 F350 rebuilt fuel injectors now fuel injectors, 13 and four are not working did a dionostic scan no codes for fuel injectors but when I disable one ate a time numbers 1,2 and 4 makes no change I have code for incorrect exhaust recirculation and a code for turbo no back pressure I have replace power side Ficm , fuel injector wire harness nipple cups stand pipes blue spring fuel filters oil filter sending unit in fuel tank and rebuilt all the injectors with new springs and orings can you give me any help on this issue it’s on a 2004 6.0 power stroke
What does a buzz test show?
so, i pulled my relief valve out and of course it sprung out at me, cleaned it up good and reinstalled, went top side and was watching my reservoir while key off and the reservoir didnt fill….i also tried depressing the plunger in the reservoir still no change….is this a bad lpop? its a 2006 f250 6.0
You have to crank the truck over. LPOP is driven off the crank.
Is there a torque spec on the Low Pressure valve spring plug thing that u removed in this video.
Yes I don’t remember it off hand but I usually just tighten it up with my 3/8 ratchet
Hope you see this message trying to fix my truck what is the whole part called where the filter goes ?
Are you referring to the whole aluminum filter housing or the oil filter standpipe?
What happen if it still build oil but still no start only start with starter fluid but truck runs great when running
DO NOT USE STARTING FLUID!!! If you pumping LPO this isn’t your problem. What’s your icp, ipr%, FICM main and FICM sync say when cranking? What’s your fuel pressure? This video only applies if your not making low pressure oil. If you keep throwing starting fluid at a truck your gonna crack a piston or rings.
Im having the same issue after filing up
That is a great video. One question though. What is oll?
I’m not following unless this is a poke at a southern accent.
Have you seen this where the filter housing is filling but there is no oil pressure on the dash? Thanks!
Only takes 7psi to read on the dash. The dash oil pressure is not priority if battery voltage is low either. So no if the filter housing fills relatively quick you should have gauge unless you have pretty weak batteries
@@AutomedicGarage I really appreciate that, thank you
Awesome video, does this test sorta apply to 06 models as well?
It’s the same 03-07
I wish I could be so lucky! I just dropped the oil pan and found a broken lifter roller 😢
Let me ask you this…can a shot of ether to get it started overcome a bad icp sensor?
It might hit just due to the simple fact of the compression igniting the ether but it won’t “overcome” a bad icp. Most times a bad icp doesn’t give you a no start, you might have erratic idle or long start etc. the best way to determine if it’s bad is see what the voltage is key on engine off. Or just unplug it. It will run without it cause the pcm has a default pressure it goes to if it isn’t getting any feedback from the icp.
@@AutomedicGarage ok thank you. Doesn’t sound like my problem. I had to use the ether trick to get back to Nashville last night from Indiana with a heavy load. Mine runs fine once started but I’ll shut it off at the pump to get diesel and it doesn’t want to start back. I changed both filters on the side of the road yesterday and it’s still doing it
@@BrandonLayMusic probably have the beginnings of a high pressure oil leak
My 03 6.0 diesel does the same thing but will start when it’s cold and runs fine with oil pressure but when it heats up will not start .
You got a high pressure oil leak somewhere that only shows it’s face when the oil is hot and thin.
Now what would be the next step if the oil filter housing did fill up with oil
Pull the low oil pressure pump. Check gears for scarring. If the gears are scarred. What normally causes this is a lifter has come apart and the needles out of that lifter has gone through the pump. Next step is to pull the engine. And watch bank account go empty.
06 250 crank no start. What happens if there is oil in the canister what should I check next?
Needs to be air tested then to see if it standpipes, dummy plugs, nipple cups, injector orings or stc fitting. I have another crank no start video showing air testing and replacing standpipes and dummy plugs.
Interested in the red '03 F250, what are y'all asking?
facebook.com/marketplace/item/1146014846085241/
my 03 6.0 started having an issue going full throttle then died going up a small hill one day. now it just cranks and cranks it will start with ether but wont stay running for longer than 5-6 seconds any idea what the issue might be?
Don’t use eyther unless you like the idea of a cracked piston. Check icp and ipr while cranking and check fuel pressure, anything less than 45 psi and your looking at a week fuel pump. Could also be your in tank pickup has broke off.
Hello I have a quick question I have a truck in my yard that has the same problem but one of the guys sprayed starter fluid and it will start right up and run fine
Do you think that could be the reason
@@waderobinson5796 could be, but pulling live data would tell a lot more along with fuel pressure.
@@AutomedicGarage thank you
I have the same problem i hope it starts tomorrow please pray 🙏 for me
I don't know, what is it if you find a needle bearing?
Needle roller from a lifter
Where would the needle barring come from?
Lifter failure
I like that yellow flag... another great video.
Thanks bud, thanks for watching.
Love the video! But I'm Ole School, would have yanked that 6.0 brick out and replaced with a 7.3 :) And WTHeck, Ford's 07 6.0 had it right and tight... then discontued it for 6.4??
I’m a 7.3 guy but love me some 6.0 also.
@@AutomedicGarage That's why I'm subscribed to your channel... Need me to be Learn't on how to work on the 6.0s. My Cuz has a 04' W/ a 6.0 and he's mechanicaly challenged to say the least, Best his Heart :) Also looking on how to make it Bullett Proof! And del-leted the crap that kills these motors!
So I did your oil test, got oil, did your bubble test from another video for injectors, no bubbles. Still just cranks no start. New icp, new ipr. Kinda wants to kick over when ether is used. Oil quality is new, filter new, level at max. Where else should I look? Based on my work schedule this thing has been down for months now and if you weren’t just shy of 3 hours away I’d of already brought it to you, lol! Thanks in advance!
What’s the pids during cranking?
@@AutomedicGarage I don’t have that tough book monitoring setup you have but have been contemplating getting it. Do you recommend I get it for more accurate diagnosis?
@@revolutionanarchy713 your just guessing and throwing parts at it without it
@@AutomedicGarage ok
@@AutomedicGarage what’s the brand name of that program, I forget
So this happened from running out of fuel? I ran out of fuel and watch my gauges lose pressure and haven’t started since. I’m going to try this tomorrow
No not from running out of fuel. Just happened to be a coincidence. It didn’t start because the LPOP relief valve was stuck.
I got an 03 6.0
What will be the cost to do the bullet proof on it?
When I do head gaskets and studs at the bare minimum I add in glow plugs, harnesses and have the heads looked over by my machine shop to check for any cracks or warping. So the price all depends on what all we do. A lot of times we go on and do an oil cooler and new injectors along with stand pipes and dummy plugs(04.5-07) or if it’s a 03-04 a hpop. Other factors such as do you know you have an updated STC fitting, is it egr deleted. Do you have contribution issues with injectors. A lot factors in. It would be easier to discuss over the phone. My contact info is on my website.
Have you sold the red diesel?
Great videos !!!
Oh yea, she gone. Thanks
Where are you guys located? I’m having the exact same issue with my 2006 350 with the 6.0 power stroke.

@AutomedicGarage Do you still have the Red Ford for sale that you had showed in a video 5 months ago?
This video, actually!
Hey man I have a 03 6.0 I’ve owned it for 2 years and ever since I owned it every morning no matter hot or cold it always takes 3 or 4 tries until it starts takes longer to build oil pressure but after today I was going down the highway and the truck lost oil pressure and power and she died and now I’m at a crank no start building no oil pressure any ideas of what it could be ?
Being a 03 with the round aluminum pump I my first guess would be the pump itself. Could be the j tube or even a injector seal but I’d bet money on the pump. Have you watched my crank no start diagnosis video? It would help you work your way through it.
@@AutomedicGarage yes I went through the video I’m going to go through the truck tomorrow night and see how it goes thank you I appreciate it
My 06 is a crank no start when I turn key switch on fuel pump comes on but it doesn't click the injectors please help
Sounds like your FICM is out. What’s your FICM voltage key on? When you crank it over do you have sync? If you have neither check your 3 FICM connections and check the ground on the rear most intake bolt on the drivers side.
So measuring a fliter like that will. Be the same no matter what cap you run. The difference is on top of yhe flange. The cap height another words. The seal flange down will be the same.
The distance that matters is from the where the cap seats onto the housing to the bottom of the filter. Some cheap caps don’t hold the filter firmly either so it will recess more also.
What if you are at 1400psi on icp ipr is at 47 low base oil pressure only clombs after cranking on it around 4 times with long cranks?
If you have 1400 icp then you don’t have a base oil pressure problem. Hpop has to get oil from LPOP to build pressure. Have you pulled your filter and looked at your drain back valve? What oil filter are you running? Oem filter cap?
@@AutomedicGarage yes i actualy followed your instructions on your video. I have the sinister bypass oil filter system. I measured the oil filter and cap like you did and got the same length as you did. And i also cranked and the oil filter reservoir filled up with oil. So thats not the issue. I have swapped iprs about 5 different times. After a very long crank an ebay ipr valve started my truck but idles high and erratic. Installed an oem ford and will not start. I do get rpms and base oil pressure. But only after a very long crank times. Ive been working at it for months and cannot for the life of me figure this one out. 47 ipr and 1400 on icp is what my scan gauge reads with oem new ipr valve but no start. Just crank.
I have 6.0 2005 mine doesn't want to start when its cold outside but starts fine when its above 60 degrees any idea has an new FICM in it, is it possible oil weight? welcome any thoughts
Have you checked/changed your glow plugs, harness, glow plug controller?
@@AutomedicGarage no i haven't it does start when warm but it didn't start till it had 1100+ # oil pressure runs good starts normally after first starting, could it a problem with fuel pressure
@@mickdale3828 sounds like a glow plug related.
@@mickdale3828 need to hook a scanner up and check fuel pressure
My is doing the same thing please help me to get it spark
There is no “spark” with a diesel.
That poor starter 😂 hopefully you thru one in on the house
Starters can handle it. It’s how you diagnose these. 20-30 sec intervals don’t hurt em.
Where can I buy that magnet?
I think that one’s from harbor freight but any parts place or tool store will have one.
What did you use to take that off with ?
You can use a t60 torx or I believe it’s a 12mm allen
Mine cranks and starts but its a long crank, does it when hot and cold. Any ideas?
Might have a weak hpop. Or your relief valve is stuck in between open and shut or a weak lpop. What year truck?
@@AutomedicGarage it's an 06.
Those damn 6.0’s…….PITA.
Excuse me, where are you? I need a mechanic. I have a problem just like that on a 2005 6.0 powerstroke. Could you help me?
