I appreciate you sooo much! I'm about to purchase my first diesel (06 F350 dually). I have been watching hours of videos to learn all I can. This video is by far the best I have come across for beginners like me. I now know the exact and important questions to ask my diesel mechanic.💪💪
Love the channel, brother. Tastefully sorted 6.0, amazing sounds, and how-to's. Keep it going for the 6.0 enthusiast, we need a solid 6.0 channel. I own a 2004 E-350 6.0 van and a 2005 F-250 extended cab short bed FX4. Obviously, I like the 6.0 and realize the true value of these trucks.
Andrew B Thank you for the kind words! Feel free to send the channel to your friends as well. I’m going to try and show more how to videos etc of modifications to these trucks.
how does it need explanation? if you regulate the fuel pressure after the end of the fuel rail it ensures every injector has the same pressure of fuel preventing short filling and injector damage. from factory the regulator is before the fuel rail and causes turbulence at the end of the rail making bubbles in the fuel
First Time Viewer! Great Channel...excellent video...straight talk, easy to understand, etc. I own and "thinking about selling" a 2006 Ford F-350 Lariat CC 6.0L 4WD SRW - EXCELLENT condition...very well maintained - Schaeffer's oil, Caterpillar EC-1 rated ELC coolant -----> no silicates, Schaeffer's ATF for transmission & transfer case, Torco gear oil for the differentials, etc., very little interior wear, new floor mats, new - just purchased - headlights, tail lights, fog lights, cab roof marker lights - 113,500 miles...with ALL Bullet Proof Diesel aftermarket parts...remote oil filter, engine oil cooler (oil to air), free flowing EGR cooler, CNC machined from aluminum billet ----> FICM housing, water pump housing & impeller, etc; BTS (Brian's Truck Shop) transmission ---> Stallion Torque Converter, clutches, etc. (drive normal - shifts like butter...get on it - shifts fast, quick and hard); ARP head studs; SCT tuner; Aluminum Radiator, MBRP 4 inch exhaust.....and last but not least PacBrake PRXB Exhaust Brake wired to Upfitter Switch # 1...great for towing! Running stock Garrett GT3782VA turbo and stock fuel injectors. Have Garrett PowerMax GT3788VA turbo. Truck chassis, frame, axles, driveshafts, etc. all been primer once, painted twice...third coat of paint in a few days. If I decide to sell...truck is in Missouri and will be listed on Cargurus and or eBay in a week or two.
I absolutely love my 6.0. I have a 05 250 4x4 lariat. I had major issues at 150k and had to make a decision. I couldn't talk myself into buying a new truck. I put 13k in bulletproofing my motor and added a stage 1 turbo with 4 inch exhaust from turbo back. My mileage increased and will pull a house. PSP Diesel in south Houston tx did my motor work and I swear bye them. My Ford never ran better.
New too 6.0 love them got my first one 04 standard cab short bed. Yes frame cut an done flawlessly other then that bone stock. Subscribed really enjoyed this video
Southern CA mechanic - Desiel Tech in San Jacinto, CA. Honest folks, been going there for nearly 10 yrs. I do most of my own work, but when I can't or don't want to I go there. Great people. 04 w/ 410k miles with 06 billet proofed engine (CA version) that has 200k miles on it.
Great Video with some very solid advise. I am glad you were keeping the vehicle stock before doing upgrades as many personnel go straight to the cub stuff and suffer in the end. I am in Southern California and would love to find a great mechanic if you know of one for my 6.0.
I'd like to do the F450/F550 brake conversion on my 2006 F250 4x4 single wheel short bed truck. Do I need special rotors and caliper mounting bracket ? or do i have to convert to 10 lug ?
Nice to see someone not say “YoU BeTtEr HaVe StUds” for once, none of my 6.0 buddies nor I have studs. I think people underestimate the strength of the stock head bolts.
@@robertdilullo6765 exactly. my mechanic (oil changes) is the best in the state and his wife's f250 isn't studded. we talk about it and unless you're running more than the 22 pounds stock limit it shouldn't be an issue but the 7.3 owners had studs from the factory and boosted their trucks. they went to the 6.0 and tried the same thing with disastrous results. note to Ford: build it as if they'd modify it because diesel guys will uniformity tune their trucks.
Man I know this has been a minute, but you have a solid source/info on that 450 brake swap? I'm already running 20's and I'd like to get some solid breaking for towing up and down the mountains!
Do you have any any more information on the f450 f550 brake swap cause I tried doing some research on it and there isn’t any clear answers out there. People are saying they needed to swap everything, knuckles brackets backing plate etc. or make custom adapter brackets, some were saying you should to swap the master cylinder as well. I really would like to do this swap on my truck but there isn’t enough clear answers or videos of other people doing this... any help is appreciated
Yeah I don't think he's correct on that one. The F450/550 has a 10 lug hub whereas the 250's and 350's have a 8 lug hub, at the very least you'd be replacing the hubs if that's a direct bolt on, but then you need to find 10 lug wheels. I just did the hubs / bearings on my truck and it was around $550 in parts, then add a new set of wheels and you're looking at a much cheaper job going with something that is actually made for the 250 / 350.
Most kids don’t want to spend 5k to do that up front or don’t have that money unless mom and dad pay for it. These trucks are getting old enough younger kids are buying them as first vehicles. If I was going to make a top 10 list that I actually would consider the most imperative then most people would bash me for saying it’s too expensive.
James Butler This was a list of the cheaper modifications to do first. Notice that nothing on my list costs over $1000 individually. Head studs are typically an expensive job but if you have the money then obviously do it.
@@tylersdieselstop6787 o.k. got it. Liked your truck,the channel and all what u had to say. I'm an owner of a really nice o6 c.c short box since 2011. Did all the normal bulletproofing stuff 5 years ago. Love the truck,it never gets abused cause I'm kinda old now but still like to to feel the power once in awhile. My wife doesn't want me to do nothing else ,cause I'm gett ing close to retiring. Just wanted to jump in here,with my 2 cents. Never have before,liked what ur doing though,really nice nice job on ur truck. Be blessed man......
James Butler Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m not a professional by any means but I want to spread knowledge and wealth to the community and try to connect with more people who love 6.0 Powerstrokes such as myself.
@@tylersdieselstop6787 I spent 2500 bucks did all the work and 200kmiles sense the swap..the 5.9 know has 580kmiles on it zero issues just my 2 cents I ran the 6.0 for 5 years and went through 2 motors I don't miss the pig.
@@V8trickshotMy 6.4 has about 200k but she is not stock and I wouldn't have kept her that way too nice of a truck haha I have pretty much decided if she does let go I will Cummins swap it and prob refresh the transmission
Hey Tyler. I’m a longtime 6.0 owner and agree with all your tips, but have had different experiences with a couple. On the brakes have you tried upgrading to the PMF brake lines. It makes a night and day difference. I run 40s and my stopping power is excellent on a well maintained stock brake system.
Trevor makes some of the best stuff in the industry! I sincerely apologize for such a late response. I’ve missed a lot of comments unfortunately but I appreciate the watch and comment!
Biggest thing that will determine if you will love or hate your 6.0 is your attitude going into buying it if u expect u won't have to spend anything on it and your just going to drive it your going to hate it if your expecting your going to spend money on it you will love it
Great video man! Just subbed. I recently picked up an 05 f250 king with 80k miles. One owner and am excited to start modding it the right way after this video
@@antoniocoleman8380 Depends on literally hundreds of factors. I bought my ‘05 with 212k on it for $16,000. Had to “re-bulletproof” it at 230k miles. Cost me $8,000. Just learn as much as you can and know what to look for… coolant puking, oil leaking, ARP studs, body mounts, glow plugs, etc etc etc
Good stuff my man, you just got 1 more sub. I’m on my 3rd 6.0 now in about 4 years, just bought the bone stock grandpa truck I’ve been looking for a few months ago. It’s an 06 f250 king ranch in true blue. Not in perfect condition but only had 96k miles on it when I bought it, excited to build this truck from scratch. My first one already had some mods on it and 175k miles when I bought it. Still put a lot of money into it in the 3.5 years I owned it and it was a blast to drive. It was an 06’ xlt zf6 truck. But man the king ranch is so much nicer lol currently pulling my IPR out to chase down a no start issue.
Dalton Dees So depending on what your your truck is 05-07 typically don’t have weak HPOP they are either good or bad which in my opinion makes it easier to trouble shoot. 03-04.5 trucks are more of a common “weak” HPOP issue. I would say if you’re 05+ you’re starting in the correct spot pulling the IPR however don’t be surprised if you need a pump because like I said, typically they are good or their not.
Tyler’s Diesel Stop No tears in IPR screen, a little dirty so I cleaned it and put back together still cranking and not starting. Getting fuel pressure so I’m certain it’s an oil pressure issue but I lack the tools to pressure test anything so I called a trusted powerstroke mechanic close to me to come pick it up Monday.
I have turned 271,000 miles today on my daily driver. Deleted, exhaust 4” sinister diesel oil cooler and arp studs. So far. Had the sump pump from the tank, its gone because it failed. Went back to my stock ford fuel pump. Great Chanel. Thanks for making the vids bud
If you want custom tunes, don’t get Blessed Performance, or Gearhead. Go for ID Speed Shop (formerly Innovative Diesel) If you want to tow, I'd get an 03 turbo and a manual exhaust brake (but only if you have a ZF6, a manual exhaust brake will overheat an auto tranny). PMF braided brake lines, and EBC rotors and pads are an awesome upgrade for towing as well. Also a Bluetop steering gear, and PSC ram assist.
Very very helpful video just picked up a 07 6.0 with 83k miles looking to do some mods nothing crazy due to obvious reasons but this video made it so much easier on which direction to go
Number one should’ve been get a 7.3 🤣 jk I have both and all the problems everyone complains with the 6.0 are honestly avoided if you maintain your damn trucks. The people hollering 6.0’s are trash are the ones who go 9 months without an oil change and think adding a quart every now and then cause of a damn leak and think that’s maintenance
Tyler, thanks for your post. I have 05 350 Duelly. Bought new. Has 57,000 miles as I write this. Not a truck guy, but love it. Bone stock. Had the oil cooler replaced with oem with egr delete. That’s it. I tow boat and race car. Sits most of time. Got a bad wobble or shake with the brakes....or something. I think they stick. And the headlights suck ass. Wish I could drop it off with you for the remaining top 9 list. Ha!
Okay, great suggestions. Loved the part about the f450/550 brake upgrade. I didn't know about that one. I would have thought that you might have listed some of these in your top 10: -Blue spring -7.3 fan clutch -Bulletproof water pump -Air Lift air bags -Metal boost tubes -Aftermarket hubs -6.4 or 6.7 starter upgrade Anyway, some food for thought for next time. Thanks for the vid
hi ty,,,f y i my ,,1968 pete did not come with front brakes bli like that had a detroit 8v 92 t a .2 stroke..turbo to a super charger..to a aftercooler ...450 hp on the dyno at daleney and elf in bakersfield...cal....best overload was ..86600...gross wt one day broke the frame one day so i sleeved it..still ronning my 85 ...6 9 dully...lil stinker....doin sum sky writing with it on the hwy...just got a 6.0 2006....f 250...good luck with u tube....god bless all that read this......the jake on was wild.......had a red dot a/c on the cab roof...
yeah you need resivour shocks for sure...im sure your fluid is boiling driving down a public street.. tell these folks the truth . you like the rresivour shock because it looks cool. lmao
I agree with everything except number nine, I hate them blutarded LED lights. But I live and work at night si what do I know , now if they come out with Amber LEDs I’d be all over it. Otherwise great vid. Spot on . Love my 04- 6.0. Bought it brand new. I tow haul you name it . Good job !
Just recently bought a 2005 king ranch 6.0 with all listed mods but the lift pump / RR... just subscribed and looking forward to future content... Curious to know your opinion on oil / coolant bypass filtration and sound deadening. These are potential mods I’m considering in the near future.
John V. personally I don’t have them on my trucks but I have had them previously! I’ve never messed with the oil bypass but the coolant filters are always helpful, they aid in keeping your oil cooler clog free.
Google -----> Bullet Proof Diesel...in Arizona. They have numerous upgrades for the Ford Super Duty 6.0L trucks...have all their parts on my 2006 F-350 CC 4WD SRW. DieselSite is another great aftermarket supplier...have their Aramid Boots.
Hey what’s up man I was wondering if you can use or get custom tunes with running like a act live wire or like any of the screen monitors, that’s what I want for my 6.0, I rather not get the act x4 but if that’s the only way to get custom tunes we’ll then I guess that’s the route I’ll have to go but if you know differently please let me know , thanks and awesome videos man keep it up! Would like to see more vids of the truck tho!!
Are you running dual shocks on each side up front? My truck 6.0 just got has the bracket for dual shocks but previous owner couldn't afford to replace them with name brand ones so he went a cheap route. However those now need to be replaced. I've been really looking into those fox shocks. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. Awesome vids bro👍👍
Hay Tyler love the info on these trucks I have a 04 F250 lariat FX4 Crew Cab that I love and am buying another next year that needs the motor pulled and rebuilt could you give me some suggestions on what I should replace while I have the motor out or things that I should update thanks Man and just so you know I drive my truck daily it's my go to love driving it and your videos have helped me get to know my truck better.
you can EGR delete since it reduces EGT's and therefore you get better valve train life - beyond that just use a big assed turbo with STUDS and they never lift when you stud them. oil cooler and you're done.
On the exhaust, should I delete the Cat, muffler, or both? What size pipe? My truck is a stock 2005, F250 2WD with 110,000 miles. I pull a 7000LB trailer. Thanks.
Just subbed. I just got back from looking at a truck to buy. Numerous mods on it. He showed me wire on dash that went to a edge tuner gauge device . He said it has software issue and took it out. He told me it was on the street tune. I want the the truck to pull dump trailer with. He said he would contact edge to see if they could fix. If cannot be repaired is there a way it can be put into towing tune. I don’t know anything about diesels as you can tell.
I appreciate you sooo much! I'm about to purchase my first diesel (06 F350 dually). I have been watching hours of videos to learn all I can. This video is by far the best I have come across for beginners like me. I now know the exact and important questions to ask my diesel mechanic.💪💪
I hope you know how to check for warped heads, blown gaskets, coolant puking, and whether or not it’s studded.

My 1994.5 7.3 just started laughing in the driveway when you said 6.0 trucks were old, meanwhile my 2005 6.0 was offended
Lmao my 87 square body laughed in 30+ years old

I shat myself when he said that i have 3 trucks a 72 360FE, 89 7.3, and a 94 5.8, i just got a 05 6.0

Extremely good advice. Great info to help people not be so scared about 6.0’s. They really don’t seem as bad as so many people make them out to be.
Everyone wants a 7.3 because "they'll last forever" no a 6.0 will last forever once it's bulletproof
This is a solid list. It's not a list that sells hyped up garbage. Maintenance and brakes being the two main items. But the entire list is savvy.
oh yes get them resivour shocks...and to hell with head studs !!!
Good stuff to know thanks man. I am a first time 6.0 powerstroke owner and am needing knowledge on this thing.

Could you go into detail about the F450/F550 brake upgrade? There is only so much info on the old forums about it.
You need: knuckles, calipers, rotors, shields, and hub/bearing assemblies. Can be expensive best to find a junkyarded truck

What about bulletproofing stuff? Head gaskets and studs, water pump etc?
You obviously want to do that but this is a “starter” list for those just getting into a truck and don’t have funds available yet to do those things.

Great video man! Just subbed. I recently picked up an 05 f250 king with 80k miles. One owner and am excited to start modding it the right way after this video
Right on!
I just picked up an 03 King ranch with 217k😆 it runs amazing so far! Driven it about 150miles
@@lovemysisterojl I’m getting an 06 f250 with 200k on it is it a good buy?
@@antoniocoleman8380 Depends on literally hundreds of factors. I bought my ‘05 with 212k on it for $16,000. Had to “re-bulletproof” it at 230k miles. Cost me $8,000. Just learn as much as you can and know what to look for… coolant puking, oil leaking, ARP studs, body mounts, glow plugs, etc etc etc
Good stuff my man, you just got 1 more sub. I’m on my 3rd 6.0 now in about 4 years, just bought the bone stock grandpa truck I’ve been looking for a few months ago. It’s an 06 f250 king ranch in true blue. Not in perfect condition but only had 96k miles on it when I bought it, excited to build this truck from scratch. My first one already had some mods on it and 175k miles when I bought it. Still put a lot of money into it in the 3.5 years I owned it and it was a blast to drive. It was an 06’ xlt zf6 truck. But man the king ranch is so much nicer lol currently pulling my IPR out to chase down a no start issue.
Dalton Dees So depending on what your your truck is 05-07 typically don’t have weak HPOP they are either good or bad which in my opinion makes it easier to trouble shoot. 03-04.5 trucks are more of a common “weak” HPOP issue. I would say if you’re 05+ you’re starting in the correct spot pulling the IPR however don’t be surprised if you need a pump because like I said, typically they are good or their not.
Tyler’s Diesel Stop No tears in IPR screen, a little dirty so I cleaned it and put back together still cranking and not starting. Getting fuel pressure so I’m certain it’s an oil pressure issue but I lack the tools to pressure test anything so I called a trusted powerstroke mechanic close to me to come pick it up Monday.
I have turned 271,000 miles today on my daily driver. Deleted, exhaust 4” sinister diesel oil cooler and arp studs. So far. Had the sump pump from the tank, its gone because it failed. Went back to my stock ford fuel pump. Great Chanel. Thanks for making the vids bud
roger drum Glad you enjoy them!
I got a good mechanic for free
Thanks dad
No master tech here! Although I do appreciate the boost in confidence. Thanks for the kind words my friend!
If you want custom tunes, don’t get Blessed Performance, or Gearhead. Go for ID Speed Shop (formerly Innovative Diesel) If you want to tow, I'd get an 03 turbo and a manual exhaust brake (but only if you have a ZF6, a manual exhaust brake will overheat an auto tranny). PMF braided brake lines, and EBC rotors and pads are an awesome upgrade for towing as well. Also a Bluetop steering gear, and PSC ram assist.
Hey man my standard cab that I mentioned a few videos ago is in getting the dash fabricated, if you wanna see it and talk about em lmk man
Josh Robinson Yeah man get on IG and shoot me some videos
Very very helpful video just picked up a 07 6.0 with 83k miles looking to do some mods nothing crazy due to obvious reasons but this video made it so much easier on which direction to go
Number one should’ve been get a 7.3 🤣 jk I have both and all the problems everyone complains with the 6.0 are honestly avoided if you maintain your damn trucks. The people hollering 6.0’s are trash are the ones who go 9 months without an oil change and think adding a quart every now and then cause of a damn leak and think that’s maintenance
Have you NEVER seen Bill Hewitt's powerstroke help channel?? Been there done that...
Tyler, thanks for your post. I have 05 350 Duelly. Bought new. Has 57,000 miles as I write this. Not a truck guy, but love it. Bone stock. Had the oil cooler replaced with oem with egr delete. That’s it. I tow boat and race car. Sits most of time. Got a bad wobble or shake with the brakes....or something. I think they stick. And the headlights suck ass. Wish I could drop it off with you for the remaining top 9 list. Ha!
Okay, great suggestions. Loved the part about the f450/550 brake upgrade. I didn't know about that one.
I would have thought that you might have listed some of these in your top 10:
-Blue spring
-7.3 fan clutch
-Bulletproof water pump
-Air Lift air bags
-Metal boost tubes
-Aftermarket hubs
-6.4 or 6.7 starter upgrade
Anyway, some food for thought for next time. Thanks for the vid
This video should help me because I'm looking at a 2007 6.0 with 306,000 miles on it
I think these videos are awesome especially for a new channel, keep up the great content man
James Howeth Thank you!
Could you make a video on how to put on f450/f550 brakes I have a 2005 f350 srw 6.0
How good is your fuel mileage?
Just found your channel and subbed! 4 videos in where your at it’s awesome! Working on my channel too, keep it up!

Thank you for you information it is very helpful. I just buy my 06 king ranch I subscribe to you channel I will follow you all you contents. Thanks.😅
My truck has 90% of these... I just wish it would run.......
yeah you need resivour shocks for sure...im sure your fluid is boiling driving down a public street.. tell these folks the truth . you like the rresivour shock because it looks cool. lmao
can u have this if your 6.0 isnt bulletproofed or deleted
I agree with everything except number nine, I hate them blutarded LED lights. But I live and work at night si what do I know , now if they come out with Amber LEDs I’d be all over it. Otherwise great vid. Spot on . Love my 04- 6.0. Bought it brand new. I tow haul you name it . Good job !
I just replaced turn lights, parking lights and roof top clearance lights with amber led lights and head lights (white) and all look and work great.
at what point do you think a lift pump and regulated return is necessary?
Noah L As long as it’s tuned in my opinion. These trucks are very under fueled from the factory.
Wilson Ruth Harris Ruth Martin Daniel
Do the 450/550 brakes bolt on?
Do you have to put in bigger head studs before you use these mods? I haven't got new bigger head studs for my 2005 6.0 power stroke yet.
You always need to stud these trucks if they aren’t already. “Studs” are not the same as a factory torque to yield bolt.
Awesome video man .....thanks for all the information!
Billy Burke Anytime! It may not be what everyone wants to see but I might start a video series to get HP goals started etc.
Tyler’s Diesel Stop You should, that’s something I’d be interested in seeing
Will you ever be selling gauges on your website?
Derek Johnson I will indeed! If you’re interested in a set shoot me a message and I will get you setup!
Tyler’s Diesel Stop hell ya man I definitely will
Just recently bought a 2005 king ranch 6.0 with all listed mods but the lift pump / RR... just subscribed and looking forward to future content... Curious to know your opinion on oil / coolant bypass filtration and sound deadening. These are potential mods I’m considering in the near future.
John V. personally I don’t have them on my trucks but I have had them previously! I’ve never messed with the oil bypass but the coolant filters are always helpful, they aid in keeping your oil cooler clog free.
Google -----> Bullet Proof Diesel...in Arizona. They have numerous upgrades for the Ford Super Duty 6.0L trucks...have all their parts on my 2006 F-350 CC 4WD SRW. DieselSite is another great aftermarket supplier...have their Aramid Boots.
just got my running for the first time, thanks for the Suggestions 👍🏾
Hey quick question for you? Do you need to do anything special to do the f450 brake upgrade?
Cliff Wiggins The brake calipers and mount brakes. You then use the 07 F350 wide track brakes.
Hey what’s up man I was wondering if you can use or get custom tunes with running like a act live wire or like any of the screen monitors, that’s what I want for my 6.0, I rather not get the act x4 but if that’s the only way to get custom tunes we’ll then I guess that’s the route I’ll have to go but if you know differently please let me know , thanks and awesome videos man keep it up! Would like to see more vids of the truck tho!!
Jacob Cossio You can get custom tuning for any SCT device. If you need assistance feel free to message me on Instagram
Cool man thanks! What’s your ig?
Jacob Cossio It’s literally in the video intro 🤣
Also want to see that interior
victory postlethwait Interior isn’t anything special at the moment but we are getting to that soon!
@@tylersdieselstop6787 looking forward to it
#10 is soooo key
Are you running dual shocks on each side up front?
My truck 6.0 just got has the bracket for dual shocks but previous owner couldn't afford to replace them with name brand ones so he went a cheap route. However those now need to be replaced. I've been really looking into those fox shocks. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. Awesome vids bro👍👍
Hay Tyler love the info on these trucks I have a 04 F250 lariat FX4 Crew Cab that I love and am buying another next year that needs the motor pulled and rebuilt could you give me some suggestions on what I should replace while I have the motor out or things that I should update thanks Man and just so you know I drive my truck daily it's my go to love driving it and your videos have helped me get to know my truck better.
you can EGR delete since it reduces EGT's and therefore you get better valve train life - beyond that just use a big assed turbo with STUDS and they never lift when you stud them. oil cooler and you're done.
Wow great video. Thank u. I just purchased a 2004 F350 6.0. With 203,000 miles. Going to def get started with all these upgrades
On the exhaust, should I delete the Cat, muffler, or both? What size pipe? My truck is a stock 2005, F250 2WD with 110,000 miles. I pull a 7000LB trailer. Thanks.
Just subbed. I just got back from looking at a truck to buy. Numerous mods on it. He showed me wire on dash that went to a edge tuner gauge device . He said it has software issue and took it out. He told me it was on the street tune. I want the the truck to pull dump trailer with. He said he would contact edge to see if they could fix. If cannot be repaired is there a way it can be put into towing tune. I don’t know anything about diesels as you can tell.
By a good used Peterbilt if you want that kind of power.
I could always just use the trucks I own that are paid for 😂
Too bad nobody tunes egr deletes anymore
Wade Gorden They do it everyday.
I run an '03 dually, and I wouldn't put a tuner on it (custom or otherwise) without head studs, just saying. I turn all my own wrenches too...
