I have a 2005 6.0 with oil sitting in the coolant jug. As of right now the oil doesn't appear to have coolant in it ( no milky stuff on the dipstick) do you think my problem is the oil cooler?
Here are a few better than OEM options: bulletproofdiesel.com/collections/oil-coolers?pf_t_oil_cooler_type=Air+Heat+Exchanger&pf_t_oil_filtration=Upgraded+Oil+Filtration&pf_t_vehicle_year=2005
good explanation, thanks. I have to asking one question. how engine oil heating in turbo diesel engine? meaning which one is heating the oil, turbo ? piston cooling jets (pistons)? I have a toyota pickup. engine already rebuiled. colant temperature is fine but oil temp is going up when hill climb. I want to know which parts heating the oil.
Any component that is hotter than the oil will heat the oil. All the components contribute. Static oil temperature is not expected, and you will spend a lot of money trying to make it so. As long as the oil is within its operating range there is nothing to worry about. While under extended loads I would expect a lot of heat to be extracted from the pistons since they are in direct contact with the combustion process. Pistons also provides the greatest surface area to absorb the heat.
Thank you for the very clear explanation of How oil cooler works, its importance/effects to the main engine components! May I ask? Hyundai Accent CRDI. When running just nearby not exceeding 60kph/1.5hours it’s fine. But when running on highway minimum 60kph just about 15mins running low oil pressure light appears. Could you kindly advise possible problem and solution? Your reply would be highly appreciated.
I will admit we do not have any first hand experience with the Hyundai diesel engines, I think the problem you are describing sounds serious. If the "low oil pressure " light is coming on at any point, I would suggest getting it to the dealer as soon as possible. Adequate oil pressure is critical for engine longevity. On a simpler note and if you have had the oil changed recently and the problem started after this oil change, it may be possible they simply filled with the wrong engine oil.
Hi, Nice & useful to know about oil cooler in engine type vehicle. Can you able to explain the oil cooler for EV vehicle like Chevrolet Bolt ev & Tesla X model / s model.
@@genedavella9817 Even with a coolant filter, there exists the possibility for the seals in the oil cooler to fail, and the coolant and oil mix, creating a big mess. We see that every so often. We prefer to simply separate the two liquids so there is no capability for this to happen.
2:35 "Remember as engine oil gets hot, it gets thinner as engine oil viscosity changes." I was pretty sure, it was the other way around and that's why we have multi weight oils. (10w 40) 10, thin at start up, 40, thick when hot.
Can anyone answer.... Why didn't Ford just design a conventional and reliable Oil Cooler Radiator style cooler in the front of the truck. Come on these are MIT graduates. They knew designing this thing. It would eventually clog and fail. As a 20 plus year mechanic. I could have told them that.
water does cool better than air so that may have been why the new 6.7 uses a water to air intercooler they are also dramatically smaller and save more space things always look better on paper than how they will perform in real life
I can't believe it's not 100 percent based on packaging. BUT this design really messes people up who take their vehicles for granted. If maintained by the proper interval these coolers can last much longer than the people used to being able to neglect the realities of a modern diesel engine
It needs to cool the oil but it needs to be at an operating temperature otherwise in winter the oil will be to thick take forever to reach operating temperature . It's like a balancing act. I'd say the tech designer should have made it with thicker walled material
That´s no an oil cooler, it is an oil-water exchanger. One real oil cooler it is a air to air oil radiator. That system used actually in a lot of cars are prone to failure inside, passing the oil to the coolant circuit, oil more press than coolant. Delete that problematic system an fit a real oil cooler, less problems, only takes more time to heat the oil , no more . Exchanger heats the oil quickly, by the aid of the coolant temp getting temp with closed thermostat.
We have had several of these 6.0 s in shop. Thousands of dollars in repairs. The worst motor made in small trucks ever. I am reluctant to even repair the injector sleeves or coolers. Junk. Kids like to race them. Not good for contractors or serious use like 7.3 .
FINALLY! I've been wandering how the two liquids will ever mix! Yay for animation!
Fantastic video, short and to the point and well explained.
thanks

What if the prongs break off into the cylinder head on the glow plug connectors?
Good explanation of this set up.

Hi Jimmy - yes, if there is engine oil in the cooling system, then it is safe to assume that the engine oil cooler has failed.

very very helpfull thanx
I have 6.0 that is mixing coolant and oil. Could this be the cause?
Truck is already studded and deleted
Is there engine oil in the coolant, or coolant in the engine oil?

So would flushing/changing your coolant often help reduce build up?
Can't hurt!
Most folks with 6.0 add a filter to the coolant system to keep the build up from happening
