Everybody that owns a ford diesel truck are extremely lucky there is a man like you and your mechanics to correct the endless shortcomings of the ford R&D department.
I’ve been working on 7.3 diesels for over 20 years now and I don’t believe in snake oil products to repair them. That being said I watched this video I unwillingly bought a bottle of this expensive shit and put it in my personal truck with 200,000 on the original injectors. It had a bad skip when cold and now it purrs like a kitten. I also added some to the power steering and it helped tremendously. Thanks for spending the time giving us your advise much appreciated.
I was having the same problem when I owned my 1st gen 7.3 Powerstroke way back when. Kept chasing my tail with the problem and it never really got fixed. Ended up selling it out of frustration. Wish I had this stuff 15 years ago!!! Thanks for the video!
Thanks Bill! I've watched your videos for the last 6 years and like many of us psd owners, would be up a creek without you. I plan on doing the archoil challenge next time I'm on days off (hoping for the best). Keep up the great work. -Hayden
Look how clean the engine can be after using high quality engine oil, engine flush and combined with Archoil 9100 - and it is a diesel! th-cam.com/video/x4u64lKBbhQ/w-d-xo.html
been using archoil for years the stuff is nothing short of a miracle. you can dig through all the data sheets etc but nothing beats seeing how well it works in your own truck
Bill, Your videos are great! I am not a powerstroke owner but I used to be a tech at a few Ford dealers as a line tech and did not work on the diesel engines. all your information is fantastic to pass along to anyone that needs this info you provide and if I get a chance I send them to your channel. great stuff! I always had a soft spot for the 7.3 powerstroke because it is a real work horse of a engine and very few problems if taken care of. just pack a extra camshaft position sensor in the glove box as it seems to be the achillies heel of the 7.3.
Excellent, excellent, excellent. Those results are EXACTLY what I found with my 2005 6.0. It had stiction problems. Tried a couple of other additives that will remain nameless. ArchOil is the way to go!
Bill-I really appreciate your videos. They have helped me do a better job servicing my 2005 6.0 truck. I have 184K miles on the truck, and have not had any major troubles, however, do have the stiction issue. I ordered the Archoil combo today, and hope it gives me better results. Also, I will be changing to synthetic motor oil. I have ran regular Rotella for the life of the truck, but feel the injectors need a break........before they break. Thanks again for the service you provide. It is appreciated.
Mine was doing and sounded exactly the same. Your guy diagnosed it as needing new battery cables. The ones I had weren't to old. I said replace them if that was the problem. The installation was Not neatly done and the positive cable rubbed against pulley. I had to fix that. Needles to say the new cables didn't fix the issue. There was other repairs done as well. Fuel pump installed all good. Transmission remove new torque converter installed because of loud as heck noise and shifting hard that was my diagnosis I was told that probably wasn't the problem of it shifting hard but it was the problem. Now the torque converter is making the same noise again just not as bad as the original one. They did a transmission service on it (fluid and filter), I've done several transmission services on the truck myself and never had the pan to leak but after they your guys did the service it leaked. Yes I did try contacting your office it was very hard and difficult to get through never would receive a phone call back finally got through talk to the guy out front not you the other got works or just find it him you should hit fill out paperwork and get back with me we never did talk to him again months later he said the same thing never call me back. Bill can the Archoil be purchased from your shop or does it have to be shipped out?
That's nuts!!!! We need more people like you to help people out that want to have diesel trucks for work or play and feel comfortable about taking their trucks to a shop.. GREAT DEMO,I JUST LEARNED AND REALLY THANKFUL FOR THIS. THANK YOU
man i tell ya what bill im not much of a ford guy but ive watched ALOT of your videos and the world needs more guys like you brother! you are a true stand up guy! now if only i could get ya to do these kinds of videos on the duramax lol! i wish you the best of luck and may god bless you!
Archoil is a fucking miracle. My 05 6.0 was running perfectly fine to my knowledge. Yesterday I added the friction modifier to the oil and 80ml of the fuel additive to a full tank and ran it for about 40 miles and didn't really notice much difference. This morning it was normal to get started (fairly easy but still a few cranks before it'd catch) but after I drove up to the Dawson Forrest, it was like a different truck. It engaged overdrive sooner, stayed in overdrive longer before shifting out (used the engine to torque through the hills) under a load and burned noticeably less gas than previous trips to that area. That was just on* the road. Off road, I noticed that the engine was quieter and used the turbo far less than I was used to it doing. I can't say enough about these products so far. I'm looking forward to what my commute to the city looks like this week in terms of MPG
John .in the Uk after watching your video i purchase the additive and put it in my wifes 2004 Toyota Rav4 D4D .Have driven approx 250 miles (roads shorter in the Uk).But thats around town all i can say is starting lots better and drivability much improved well happy driving much much bettet.thanks well informed video.
The truck was only driven 14 miles, not 31. The beginning odometer reading was 165,596 and the ending was 165,610. It shows the effectiveness of this product even better! 😁
Wow. My 7.3 f350 does that exact same thing during the winter. I never knew what the problem was and neither did any shop in my area. Im going to try it. Thanks Bill.
Matt Morris You need to order the p1 kit and hopefully you caught it before the injectors are damaged beyond what ARchoil Ar9100 can do. archoil.powerstrokehelp.com
Love the page man good to know that somebodt cares enough help out with the ups and downs of owning one, because of this page I just went out and bought my first diesel about three weeks ago got a 2013 ford f250 6.7 platinum
Man go to PowerStrokeHelp.com and order the P1 package. It will keep all those expensive cans in your exhaust working correctly. You need to crawl under there and look at that. Its scary.
I like this guy...I don't own a diesel but I have watched and enjoyed all of his videos....It's fairly obvious that when Bill speaks, it might be a good idea to listen up. Cheers
I wish we would send our ambulances / fire trucks to YOU for repairs.... Im a EMT / Firefighter for douglasville and i know that our apparatuses would function so much better without a doubt! You are the man Bill.
Send your worst POS. I get off on unfking these trucks. I haven't seen a good POS beat to death ambulance come through since Grady ran their PowerStrokes to death. I wouldn't let my dog ride in some of those trucks. HA 770-931-4070 (1) leave a message and we will call back.
When we use the fuel modifier for the first few tanks will that cause some "stuff" to become loose and trapped in the fuel filters? Should we change our fuel filters after the first few archoil enriched fill ups? Thanks for your input Bill.
Just changed my oil this morning added the archoil let it run for fifteen minutes took it for a half an hour drive and WOW, what a difference in the way it ran and how Much quieter it was.
I think this is better than seafoam. Give it a shot and see if you like the results. I started using it on my 6.0 and I'm pleased with the results. It's a little more money, but worth keeping your motor/injectors clean.
Wow, a product that actually does what it claims; I'm impressed. Could the viscosity of your engine oil be lowered though. How much are you supposed to add? Do you know if some oils might use this product in their additive package, or something similar to it?
Pretty impressive Bill. Did you use fully Synthetic oil when you performed the oil change and added the 9100? I ordered the 2 pack from you the other day for my 6.4 and trying to decide if I should switch to fully synthetic oil.
Bill, i have been watching your videos for the past couple of years and tend to trust the stuff you are talking about.. I can say in reading on the various forums, FTE, PSnation etc, and watching your helpful videos I was aware of the issues with 6.0L PS when looking at trucks last year. I know it saved me a lot of money and headaches and I went with a 2003 7.3L. The how to buy a used truck video was extremely helpful in finding a good, and i looked at 4 with 2 being crap, truck to purchase last august 2014. I have been watching this info on archoil and have to say the results have been amazing.. One question on the truck show in video, 2000 F-350 SRW was how old was the oil and what was it condition before changing.. The reason i ask is what would have been the result out out the archoil additive in oil vs a good fresh oil change. I think to satisfy the non-believers that might be a good video to produce. I am sure the additive is doing a good job just wonder how good vs a fresh oil change. Would have been nice know mileage on old oil and see the UOA by blackrock. keep up the good work and thank a million for your info. carl 2003 7.3L owner in NC
Hello Bill, What type of oil did you use/recommend in that truck?? I have an 02 7.3 that has always had motorcraft 15w40 and does well. 310k miles. Ill be ordering archoil and didn't know if you would recommend switching oils as well..?? Everyone has an opinion on oil, but I want yours based on your experience- Thanks for your time-
Would that matter though? Serious question. I think Im having the same symptoms as this. Torn between REV-X, Liqui Moly, Hot Shots, and now this product. White smoke on start up, burns eyes and throat, contribution code on cylinder 4. Slight miss under tow until rpms get up and turbo is spooled up. Never lose any coolant.
I wish you did Cummins instead of power stroke, never found anyone like you for Cummins especially on here, too bad I didn't know about you when my dad had his 6.0 04 excursion he'd probably still have if!
Alan not always I noticed on higher mileage trucks valve lash becomes an issue the dowl pin on the front cover is a problem ya need to look into anything not a HO block I think casting 59 where prone to crack around cylinder 1 water jacket electrical wiring around the fuse panels for the grid heater are deadly for 2003-2006 they had common rail issues aswell and can burn the truck 48re automatics and 68re are weak, cummins engines aren't bad just the odd ones like everything 7 mains to a v8s 5
Hey Bill! Love your videos. Would it hurt to put this straight into the hpop when you change that oil for the top end like I saw in one of your other videos.
So I just ordered mine man! The friction modifier goes the whole bottle in the oil before or after oil change ? And the injectors just 15mil? Also it came with a fuel system cleaner
interesting, if that additive free up your injector. i think this will be a good additive for gas truck too specially GM truck with lifter problem.. looking forward shipping in canada
Hi there I did ar9100 in my last oil change my truck and its been about 5000 miles now it is a 2000 f-350 7.3 with 200000 miles. the truck runs great and smooth but every morning it misses for about 10 mins untill it starts showing temp on the gauge. you can clearly feel the miss and when its starts working fine after its warm. now with the ar9100 I have seen some improvements, it sounds a lot quieter. my question is do I have a bad injector or should I try ar9100 again do you think if it hasnt worked yet that I need to get a my injectors checked out and another one put in? thanks for any help.
You started with a truck with a dark yellow coolant tank and ended with a truck with a clear new coolant tank and a much cleaner engine. How did this happen?
That startester, what card do you use to do the buzz test and contribution test? I have a tester coming but maybe not the right card. I want to do a before and after test using the ARCHOIL too.
I really hope you reply!! So I have a 2005 f350 with a 7.3 liter an my truck is experiencing white smoke out the tail pipe. I’m wanting to buy injectors but saw this video. I don’t want to melt a piston. I’m absolutely certain that this is stiction an my start up takes longer to crank an when running smoke a lot especially upon gas. So I’m wondering should I try this? Would now be the time to use this stuff or is it to late an should I just replace them.
Hello sir, love ur vids. My 05 starts up great but runs like garbage til oil is up to 115* is it normal? Runs awwwsome once warmed up. Am i damaging anything by letting it rough idle til she warms?
Is this archoil strictly for diesels, or can it be used in gassers too? My dad's 6.8 V10 has developed a lifter knock when started, goes away when it warms up.
Sounds like a great product! Quick question for you.....just got my 2011 6.7 back from Ford with a new long block due to a spun bearing@ 50k. Warranty covered everything but i was curious if you knew anything from the (early models) 6.7s with this problem?
I have bottles still of the ford/motorcrat cetane booster for my diesel. Questions is; would mixing the two be that much better with my "more is better" mindset?
So how come the injectors respond better on the second test when all you have done is add the products to oil & fuel? Why does it start straight away if the products haven't been run through the motor?
Bill, Do you recommend pulling the oil filter standpipe on the 6.0 to add the 9100? I've seen you do it on the oil rev x video. Also could you do the same test, same video on a 6.0? I've never really hear 7.3s with stiction issues unlike the 6.0s. That would be a good demo I think! Take care!!
I tried this combo and started experiencing "stiction" issues only AFTER the treatment. I'm wondering if i may need to change the fuel filter or oil again in case there is debris that was dislodged although I didn't have any issues before the treatment?
How will this work on a 6.0? I did rev-x treatment last oil change and it helped but I still need oil temps at 120℉+ for smooth running. Still runs the same current oil change with Mobil 1 in it with no additives.
Joel N The AR9100 friction modifier is installed in the oil and stays there. At next oil change you install new AR9100. THe AR6200 combustion CAtalyst is installed in fuel very time you fill up. Give it a try. You WILL see and feel a difference.Archoil challenge is only $4.95. archoil.powerstroke.com
Hi bill, fantastic video. I have been using hot shots secret oil & fuel additive for years with good results. Have you ever used those and how do they compare to the arch oil in the video. Thanks!
landscaperconnection Hot shots is outstanding and certainly better than no additive BUT there's a new gun in town. THe Archoil AR6200 does everything the Hotshots does but AR6200 is a fuel catalyst which means it makes the fuel burn better. This will result in etter fuel economy, better start ups and less soot in the turbo and exhaust. Hot Shots does not do that. archoil.powerstrokehelp.com
Based on your earlier videos, I have been using rev-x and was very pleased with the results. Could you compare Archoil and rev-x with regards to their effectiveness and price.
Great video. I have a 02 7.3, I tried the hotshot oil additive. I noticed a difference when it runs. Is the arch oil better. Or is it the combo of fuel and oil the best way to go? Thanks
question, so when using this product, how long does it last? will the truck go back to previous state without it in the oil? - located in Ontario and the winters here are bitter cold! running a 6.0L excursion powerstrokehelp
Dan M You really need both products to feel the difference. The AR9100 friction modifier is installed in the oil and stays there. At next oil change you install new AR9100. THe AR6200 combustion CAtalyst is installed in fuel very time you fill up. Give it a try. You WILL see and feel a difference.Archoil challenge is only $4.95. archoil.powerstroke.com
Got a question I have a 99 7.3 and my old man just got a 12 6.7 he likes the power but he hates the fuel economy verses the 7.3 would just the fuel additive help with economy or would you need the oil additive as well
I have a 2013 6.7L with only 13,000 miles....would it be necessary to start using these products this early in the trucks life or wait closer to 75-100,000 miles??
wideopenmx850 If you want your truck to run as well as it gan and get better fuel economy I suggest that you start using them now. Go to archoil.powerstrokehelp.com to order.
powerstrokehelp hey bill my 02 f350 7.3L eats a FOMOCO Motorcraft alternator every year. just went out again. what aftermarket high output alternator should I go to?
Jerry A You only use 16oz of Archoi AR9200 in the oil so put 14qt of oil and then add the 16 oz of AR9200, Once you have started the truck for a minute check the oil level and add to top it off.
Can the AR6200 fuel treatment be used in conjunction with other fuel treatment like Diesel clean cetain boost or should it be used alone? I ordered the kit last week.

I tried the AR9100 on my 97 with hard starting issues and it started like a brand new truck. Absolutely insane. I run it every oil change now.
This was a very dramatic test / result with the Arch product - I was looking for something like this before buying - sold! thanks
I was having the same problem when I owned my 1st gen 7.3 Powerstroke way back when. Kept chasing my tail with the problem and it never really got fixed. Ended up selling it out of frustration. Wish I had this stuff 15 years ago!!! Thanks for the video!

Now for a similar question ...Is Marvel mystery oil any good?
Thanks Bill

I''d buy a Power stroke just so I could bring it to Mr. Hewitt's shop. I'm saving my nickels for a 2007 ;-)
I agree 100% the man is a genius. Did you get your 2007?
Would you recommend putting archoil in the hpop as well?
I have a 2005 f250 6.0 with 113k no issues but I added a bottle to my oil just for the hell of it! Preventative maintenance I guess.
Out fucking standing! These videos are very informative! Bill is the man!! I think Bill if friends with Chuck Norris

I've been running both Marvel Mystery oil + Diesel Kleen in the fuel of all my diesel ford trucks for 10 years with zero problems.
When we use the fuel modifier for the first few tanks will that cause some "stuff" to become loose and trapped in the fuel filters? Should we change our fuel filters after the first few archoil enriched fill ups? Thanks for your input Bill.
love this video, I just bought a 2004 F350 Diesel and I gotta get me some of this to protect my investment.
Just changed my oil this morning added the archoil let it run for fifteen minutes took it for a half an hour drive and WOW, what a difference in the way it ran and how Much quieter it was.
keith k Amazing isnt it. I have had this same reaction with everything from a ZR1 Vette to a weed trimmer. It is fun to see what else runs good.
That's exactly what mine's doing I will invest in archoil thank you for the tip
Would Archoil clean the injectors on a 12 valve Dodge? How does it compare to Seafoam?
I think this is better than seafoam. Give it a shot and see if you like the results. I started using it on my 6.0 and I'm pleased with the results. It's a little more money, but worth keeping your motor/injectors clean.

In a 6.4 run the synthetic for sure. The rocker arms are prone to failure that will kill the heads and valve stems, resulting in $1000s of repairs.
powerstrokehelp so we change the oil then put archoil and leave it till next oil change ?
Bill,
i have been watching your videos for the past couple of years and tend to trust the stuff you are talking about..

Hello Bill, What type of oil did you use/recommend in that truck?? I have an 02 7.3 that has always had motorcraft 15w40 and does well. 310k miles. Ill be ordering archoil and didn't know if you would recommend switching oils as well..?? Everyone has an opinion on oil, but I want yours based on your experience- Thanks for your time-
Thats exactly how my e450 acts in the morning.... New injectors going in today.... Arch oil going in for now on.
What is the difference between archoil 6200 and archoil 6500?
1:40 & 2:20 - coolant overflow reservoir - looks old and been used - truck doesn't start
5:40 -> coolant overflow reservoir looks freshly replaced. - truck starts...
Fiaz M yes, I see that. Weird
Would that matter though? Serious question. I think Im having the same symptoms as this. Torn between REV-X, Liqui Moly, Hot Shots, and now this product. White smoke on start up, burns eyes and throat, contribution code on cylinder 4. Slight miss under tow until rpms get up and turbo is spooled up. Never lose any coolant.
Shawn Cooke I would use this out of any of those
Same truck though... Rad hose still has the raggedy sticker, and the non stock parts are still there... It got serviced.
Brake fluid reservoir has the exact same dirty marks though, and the radiator header is brand new, so obviously has been changed.
I wish you did Cummins instead of power stroke, never found anyone like you for Cummins especially on here, too bad I didn't know about you when my dad had his 6.0 04 excursion he'd probably still have if!
Alan not always I noticed on higher mileage trucks valve lash becomes an issue the dowl pin on the front cover is a problem ya need to look into anything not a HO block I think casting 59 where prone to crack around cylinder 1 water jacket electrical wiring around the fuse panels for the grid heater are deadly for 2003-2006 they had common rail issues aswell and can burn the truck 48re automatics and 68re are weak, cummins engines aren't bad just the odd ones like everything 7 mains to a v8s 5
*Fuse panel and can burn the truck
Hey Bill! Love your videos. Would it hurt to put this straight into the hpop when you change that oil for the top end like I saw in one of your other videos.
Putting the AR9100 in the upper reservoir of a 7.3 is a great idea.
So I just ordered mine man! The friction modifier goes the whole bottle in the oil before or after oil change ? And the injectors just 15mil? Also it came with a fuel system cleaner
interesting, if that additive free up your injector. i think this will be a good additive for gas truck too specially GM truck with lifter problem.. looking forward shipping in canada
This dude is really showing a product that takes money out of his pocket. They didn't even have to turn a wrench!
Looks like it cleaned the coolant tank aswell lol
😂😂😂😂
🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧
Thats the only repair he did
Hi there I did ar9100 in my last oil change my truck and its been about 5000 miles now it is a 2000 f-350 7.3 with 200000 miles. the truck runs great and smooth but every morning it misses for about 10 mins untill it starts showing temp on the gauge. you can clearly feel the miss and when its starts working fine after its warm. now with the ar9100 I have seen some improvements, it sounds a lot quieter. my question is do I have a bad injector or should I try ar9100 again do you think if it hasnt worked yet that I need to get a my injectors checked out and another one put in? thanks for any help.
By the way your channel has helped a lot with my 03 6.0
Justin Drake Le t me help some more by buying the Archoil P1 kit. YOur truck will run much better. archoil.powerstrokehelp.com
Should I use Arch oil instead of the slick 50 when I change the oil on the top of the 7.3?
You started with a truck with a dark yellow coolant tank and ended with a truck with a clear new coolant tank and a much cleaner engine. How did this happen?
New to the party. So you added the Archoil, ran motor then change the oil?
That startester, what card do you use to do the buzz test and contribution test?
I have a tester coming but maybe not the right card. I want to do a before and after test using the ARCHOIL too.
I really hope you reply!! So I have a 2005 f350 with a 7.3 liter an my truck is experiencing white smoke out the tail pipe. I’m wanting to buy injectors but saw this video. I don’t want to melt a piston. I’m absolutely certain that this is stiction an my start up takes longer to crank an when running smoke a lot especially upon gas. So I’m wondering should I try this? Would now be the time to use this stuff or is it to late an should I just replace them.
Hello sir, love ur vids. My 05 starts up great but runs like garbage til oil is up to 115* is it normal? Runs awwwsome once warmed up. Am i damaging anything by letting it rough idle til she warms?
Is this archoil strictly for diesels, or can it be used in gassers too? My dad's 6.8 V10 has developed a lifter knock when started, goes away when it warms up.
Sounds like a great product! Quick question for you.....just got my 2011 6.7 back from Ford with a new long block due to a spun bearing@ 50k. Warranty covered everything but i was curious if you knew anything from the (early models) 6.7s with this problem?
Casey Longshore No not a common problem that I have seen.
This stuff is really truly amazing.
That's impressive !
I have bottles still of the ford/motorcrat cetane booster for my diesel. Questions is; would mixing the two be that much better with my "more is better" mindset?
Bill because my 6.7 is brand new is there Amy benefits from using archoil at this time?
Thank you
So how come the injectors respond better on the second test when all you have done is add the products to oil & fuel? Why does it start straight away if the products haven't been run through the motor?
Bill, Do you recommend pulling the oil filter standpipe on the 6.0 to add the 9100? I've seen you do it on the oil rev x video. Also could you do the same test, same video on a 6.0? I've never really hear 7.3s with stiction issues unlike the 6.0s. That would be a good demo I think! Take care!!
psd6ohslow In severe stiction cases it may be necessary but in a truck that already runs OK I wouldnt take the extra time.
Bill would you add any of the 9100 to the HPOP reservoir when you change the oil there? Thanks
I got a 1995 that when you buzz it three will buzz faintly. It sat for 12 years. Do you think it will free up the injectors
your a good dude most people would of just put new injectors in the truck!
This really does work
I wish some of the Diesle mechanics in The uk were this good
I tried this combo and started experiencing "stiction" issues only AFTER the treatment. I'm wondering if i may need to change the fuel filter or oil again in case there is debris that was dislodged although I didn't have any issues before the treatment?
When you changed the oil did you pour the archoil in the crankcase or the top end?
How will this work on a 6.0? I did rev-x treatment last oil change and it helped but I still need oil temps at 120℉+ for smooth running. Still runs the same current oil change with Mobil 1 in it with no additives.
How does it work on 2017 6.7 powerstroke, great vids.
are you leaving the arch oil in the engine and use the truck as normal condition until next oil change or after the 40 miles of driving you drain it?
Joel N The AR9100 friction modifier is installed in the oil and stays there. At next oil change you install new AR9100. THe AR6200 combustion CAtalyst is installed in fuel very time you fill up. Give it a try. You WILL see and feel a difference.Archoil challenge is only $4.95. archoil.powerstroke.com
Hi bill, fantastic video. I have been using hot shots secret oil & fuel additive for years with good results. Have you ever used those and how do they compare to the arch oil in the video. Thanks!
landscaperconnection Hot shots is outstanding and certainly better than no additive BUT there's a new gun in town. THe Archoil AR6200 does everything the Hotshots does but AR6200 is a fuel catalyst which means it makes the fuel burn better. This will result in etter fuel economy, better start ups and less soot in the turbo and exhaust. Hot Shots does not do that. archoil.powerstrokehelp.com
Based on your earlier videos, I have been using rev-x and was very pleased with the results. Could you compare Archoil and rev-x with regards to their effectiveness and price.
The Archoil Ar9100 and Ar6200 is far superior and cost per gallon treated is about 1/2 of RevX
I have a 99 7.3 with 297k miles, it runs great, but archoil might help keep it running good, gonna have to find some.

thanks, I'm going to order some soon...
Did you put the Archoil in the top "injector" oil reservoir after you change both bottom and top oil?
Great video. I have a 02 7.3, I tried the hotshot oil additive. I noticed a difference when it runs. Is the arch oil better. Or is it the combo of fuel and oil the best way to go?
Thanks
You need both Ar9100 friction modifier in your oil and AR6200 combustion catalyst in your fuel. You will think you have a new truck.
question, so when using this product, how long does it last? will the truck go back to previous state without it in the oil? - located in Ontario and the winters here are bitter cold! running a 6.0L excursion powerstrokehelp
Dan M You really need both products to feel the difference.

Got a question I have a 99 7.3 and my old man just got a 12 6.7 he likes the power but he hates the fuel economy verses the 7.3 would just the fuel additive help with economy or would you need the oil additive as well
I'm get ready to use this stuff in my 2004 6.0 250 should I use synthetic
So would archoil be as good as rotella t6 5w40 in the 6.0 with rev x? One expensive ass oil change.
my good god. my truck did this for ever. I have done everything but injectors. thank you so much. if this works thank you very much
do you use archoil on your 2014 if so should I use it on my 2015............
So do you put in the archoil oil additive same time you change the oil ?
I have a 2013 6.7L with only 13,000 miles....would it be necessary to start using these products this early in the trucks life or wait closer to 75-100,000 miles??
wideopenmx850 If you want your truck to run as well as it gan and get better fuel economy I suggest that you start using them now. Go to archoil.powerstrokehelp.com to order.
powerstrokehelp hey bill my 02 f350 7.3L eats a FOMOCO Motorcraft alternator every year. just went out again. what aftermarket high output alternator should I go to?
wideopenmx850 I been running this product on my 14 F350 6.7L at 4,000miles? An. Ow I'm at 475,000 miles if it works for me it'll work for you
gcolo98 475k miles on a 6.7?! And 2014! How did you get those miles in 4 years!
So in the oil change, you just put one quart less of the Rotella and add the one quart of the Archoil?
Jerry A You only use 16oz of Archoi AR9200 in the oil so put 14qt of oil and then add the 16 oz of AR9200, Once you have started the truck for a minute check the oil level and add to top it off.
Diesel music to my ears.
I did this on my 6.0 and doing same exact thing now when I get it started it it dies after a while any idea why or how to keep it on?
Do you add the additive then change the oil arnadd with rhe new oil and drive it
Interesting,it has new coolant overflow bottles between truck 1 and truck 2.
passattdise Yep the old one was leaking along with the lower hose.
My truck starts pretty easy but does smoke for a bit will this help
Can the AR6200 fuel treatment be used in conjunction with other fuel treatment like Diesel clean cetain boost or should it be used alone? I ordered the kit last week.
Jay Low Hi Jay. I fulfilled your order myself. It is not necessary to use those other products with Archoil AR6200 combustion catalyst.
What do you think about Delo 400xle synthetic 10w-30?
Bill what is the diagnostic device you used in this vid
Is it possible to do a buzz test on my injector? I have a solus snap on and I can't do it. Do I need a better scanner?
Did you do the oil in the hpop also?
bill i need your advice, where can i contact you?
