Love the thumbnail, that mod is sweet! I got my duck mods in order, and AIH delete is here been trying to do it this week
Thanks man! I think it turned out pretty nice. Helps clean up the engine bay just a little bit more! Every little bit helps.
I learn more from your videos than anyone else on TH-cam! You’re incredible. Thanks for the great content, I’m always coming back and watching old videos!
I didn't even notice you have any physical restriction until you said it. You're doing good and I'm sure with the amount of fight and will that you have you will get stronger and stronger. Thanks for the vids!
If you haven’t done one yet, all you folks with 7.3 diesel. Check your high pressure lines in the valley . I just had one to rupture, lost 15 quarts of oil, has to be towed. New lines, oil and tow cost me 700.00. Ford recommends changing those 2 high pressure lines very 100,000 miles.
Very good advice! I had an O-ring blow on my HPOP in the middle of Wyoming and that anded up costing me about the same. I have since resealed my entire HPOP and have two upgraded spare lines in the garage. Plan on installing them sometime in the near future.
I had a o-ring at the head leak not the line. soaked my clutch.
Bro just finished watching the video to the end, just saw the shutout, I was like =O
Returning the favor best I can! You have good 7.3 info too!
Living On Wheels it was humbling, thx bud, I’m currently editing a video should be ready after midnight haha
Well chances are I will still be awake to watch it!
Never knew about this. Always concerned about the glow plugs. I do live in a cold climate and my 7.3 is at times very hard to start when cold. Thanks for the video.
I’m new to the 7.3 diesel community, and I’m stunned by your will to push forward 👍🏼 great content I’m subscribed to your Chanel and thank You 🙏🏼
Every time i have a 7.3 question it seems like you have a video. Thank you
Sir you are the man. I just watched this video and subscribed to your channel. And it was cuz fix it nick recommended it.you are an inspiration to a lot of people. I know some guys that have full function of there limbs and can't or won't do what you do. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next video
Your comment is much appreciated man! I have always pushed towards my passions and I do my best to not lest my injury slow me down.
Very useful to see this guy working on his truck no excuses just work if this guy do it anyone can do it 👍👍👍
I appreciate it man. There will always be obstacles but you gotta follow your passions!
I'm impressed with your abilities to work on your truck, I know a lot of people who are not disabled and could not tell their butts from a hole in the ground
I appreciate it! I have always preferred to be the person working on my own rigs.
Fixitnick is cool and has a cool little helper
Instead of painting the intercooler ducts, use a little thermodynamics I think about heat transfer into and out of that ducting. I suggest on the cold air side wrapping the duct with insulation tape and then paint them silver. The insulation tape will keep the heat out, the silver paint will reflect heat. On the hot side do the same only paint black. The thought here is to keep the heat from radiating out of the duct and away from sensitive components.
I have thought about wrapping them. I wasn't them to looks pretty though hahaha. Jokes aside, I am definitely considering it.
Love the install and driving footage!!!
Thank you!
♿ When we put our minds to things buddy we can somehow do it..... In similar position to you Joe. Well done recommending Nick channel. 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏😉
I bought a roll of green kevlar its 20 foot long worked perfect for the hot pipe, I got it at O' Riley's wasnt very much also looks much better than that crinkly aluminum over the pipe.
With the turbo charger the intake heater isn’t keeping air from your engine. If it was, Ford wouldn’t have it there. The turbo is forcing over 100% of the air it would take to fill the cylinders.
Non turbo engines typically get about 70% filled with air while running.
Been watching you but just subbed, love your videos and just got me a 2002 7.3
Thanks for following along! Congrats on the new rig!
Good looking truck. Level those mirrors.
Thanks for the video. I'll also have to use an adjustable wrench on the new plug. It's much larger than 1". I'm guessing 1.25 but my set doesn't go that large!
This winter my 7.3 was having a hard time starting all of a sudden. I took a test light and found that the air intake heater relay was not working. I bought an Ford OEM relay for 70 dollars off eBay. I changed it out. Put the key in and it started right up.
I like when the truck starts like a gas engine. Hit the key, bam.
But, that is just me.
I could be wrong but you probably replaced the Glow Plug Relay. The intake heater relay doesn't activate unless the truck is already running. None the less, it is very nice to have the truck fire right up!
Thank you for this video!! I've got a 00 7.3 6speed. Love it!
I've seen the heater from the outside of piping but didn't realize what it was.
Good Morning Joe did it myself didn't notice much of a difference but like you said more air better flow I don't quite have the money for the split spider intake yet I was thinking about fabricating my own I do have a MIG / TIG welder but it's at work and this is my only vehicle so if I take it off I sort of need the old one to match it up to they want a ridiculous amount of money for that split intake don't quite see why but it is what it is keep making videos I enjoy watching and look forward to and for those reading remember to subscribe and hit thumbs up and help this Channel grow and support the 7-3 community
Much appreciated man! I too would like to get one of the split intakes at some point but it's not a huge priority on my list right now. I have heard that it helps with intake temps because its not sharing walls between the hot and cold sides.
I'd say...titanium wrap your your pipes out to the Intercooler & back from intercooler back to your engine.
I am actually hoping to do a test on this soon!
I know it's been a long while but my question is I was removing the ground wire & the whole bolt came out of that. Do I need the bolt at that location or should I just leave it like that?
Sweet I was thinking about doing the same brother and what do you think about the
EBP Delete as well for our 7.3
Do it. Ebpv delete is the way to go Imo
Awesome video Joe..! I just ordered this setup from Riff Raff.. Did you notice any difference in the exhaust notes..?
Thanks!
Nope, no difference for me.
@@LivingOnWheels Thank you sir.. Love your channel..
Why would you want to delete that
When you put the code delete wire on the aih solenoid did you put the other wire back on solenoid as well. The other wire that was on same post as the power wire
I may have missed the video explaining it but what is the aftermarket switch in the dash next to the Bluetooth I think?
That is the switch for my rigid fog lights. One of the best upgrades I have done to this truck. I actually just recently made a video on them if you want to see them in use and my review.
How’s the Cummings coming
well done
That engine is so clean your hands were clean enough to have some BBQ after you were done!
Haha thank you. I try to keep it pretty clean!
I’m confused, it seams that you are putting a ground wire from the batter side of the Solenoid to ground?? Won’t this short out???
Probably get your order from riffraff being in Oregon same day as you ordered! Super fast shipping. I usually get my order within few days to SoCal. Thanks for your video
Your videos impress me with your content and viewing angles. You’ve done a solid job and I am sure you spend a lot of time prepping, such as tools and camera. This gives your videos a fluid feel and thoroughness aspect. Although you stated you feel limited sometimes physically, I believe that has given way to you being blessed with the ability to properly plan and prep your videos. Keep it up. You’ve got a Happy Sub here! Have a blessed weekend. I look forward to driving my 7.3 this weekend with the Family. My kids love the sound of a 7.3!
The kind words are much appreciated! RiffRaff shipping is pretty quick up here. Almost always 2-3 days. Bringing filming into the mix definitely adds another challenging aspect of working on the truck. I just try to do my best to bring you guys entertaining and useful content. You are also completely right that although my injury has provided limitations it has caused me to step up my planning and organization game BIG TIME!
Have a great weekend with your family!
Hey, I did this aih delete with the riff raff eliminator wire. But I don't have a blue wire going to that terminal or any other wire minus the eliminator. Still have a code. What's that blue wire so maybe I can trace it?
I’m not entirely sure what it’s for but I’d imagine it’s a signal wire of some sort. Maybe look around on the harness near it to see if you can find it.
@@LivingOnWheelsthanks bud. that's what I'm going to do. I think it goes to the PCM from what I'm reading
Great video. I love too watch you continuing to work on your rig.
That’s good information man
Great video. Thanks!!
Every little bit helps! Good mod and worth the time. May give a tiny bit more mpg. Let us know if you see a change. Thank for sharing
I’ll definitely look for different improvements!
@@LivingOnWheels Could you tell if anything changed? I know I'm bout 4 years late haha
So sounds like you need to pick up a 1 inch deep socket. 2nd video that you needed one.
haha yeah I finally went out and got one
@@LivingOnWheels like the videos km new to the diesel game. About to pick up an old 7.3 for 3k in the next couple weeks. Needs love. Glad to find a channel that covers the basics and some well needed upgrades to it. I plan to use it as a work truck/ slash driver. Thanks
@@lokoamerican4934 Nice man! Best advice I can give is don't be afraid to dive in and learn. Their is almost nothing on these truck too complicated to work on yourself.
I understand about physical problems been a problem child since birth. You do good work no worries.
How much does the turbo actually heat the air due to compression?
Keep up the great vids and work bud. Awesome to see someone not let a wheelchair slow ya down. Been warching your channel fir awhile and had no idea till this video
Props to you man I’ve been following your channel for a good while keep up the good videos
Does it work at same time block heater does, If you plug in truck with drop cord?
I've got a 2001 Ford f250 Xlt 4x4 Off Road pkg 7.3 Powerstroke too an I was wanting to know how this delete works in the winter or subzero temperatures if it affects how it starts or warms up when it's cold......
Well the intake air heater isn't used for cold starts at all. Its purpose was turn turn on during really cold conditions while idling to help create a fuller burn and reduce haze. Basically it's an emissions component. So as far as what you're asking, you should see no difference at all. Especially if you are using your block heater in those temps.
It’s all I
Did you ever delete the air heater solonoid?. I did the same on mine but would like to get rid of solonoid as well. Free up some space. Heard some people just hook the resistor piece to wire on other side of solonoid.
I did not. I looked into it because I wanted to do the same but I couldn’t find a good solution
Does the intake heater only turn on during the start cycle, similar to the glow plugs? Seems silly to have a heater after the intercooler.
Nope. As far as I am aware, it’s not even used to help with cold starts. It was built to help with reducing emissions while idling in very cold temps.
Did you lose the boost reading on your monitor after doing this?
No. The factory boost reading is through the map sensor. I was using an aftermarket sensor on the Y pipe. So this wouldn’t effect either
@@LivingOnWheels weird. I just did an aih delete and it’s not gone off my edge monitor 🤷🏼♂️
Hey where in OR you live in?
In the Willamette valley
Before you did this how did you watch your boost levels?. Dash ready?
I currently read my boost levels through my MAP sensor using my Edge CTS.
the throttle and brake setup u got is pretty neat lol
Where are you at in Oregon? Roseburg here.
Little ways out from Oregon city
@@LivingOnWheels love your channel!
Respect for continuing on with your interests and projects despite the physical limitations you face. Well done young man!
Much appreciated!
Good video! If you powdercoated the ic pipes to match your body paint that would look sweet!
Thanks man! I have thought about that. I am stuck between matching the body color or going with a nice dark metallic blue.
@@LivingOnWheels ooh ya blue would look nice too! Sinister diesel has some nice blue parts!
@@MrMetalliholic I really like the sinister blue color but I think I might get shunned out of the diesel community if I put Sinister parts on my truck! hahaha
@@LivingOnWheels Haha ya I know what you mean!
I do think that dark blue color would look really clean under the hood and compliment the red well.
What year is your ford? I have a 99 and wonder if your tow mirrors would work
Mine was a 2000. They should bolt up fine to a 99. Just have to figure out how you want to wire them.
@@LivingOnWheels ill have to see if i can get something from a junkyard or something….they are not for sale in amazon.,..oh well…ill find something
Keep in mind the oem 17+ mirrors wont bolt on. They are a different design. Here is another option from amazon that should work since the ones I used are discontinued.
amzn.to/3KUzV1M
@@LivingOnWheels wow, thank you very much
I have nearly the same exact truck as you except i have a 6 foot bed which im so unhappy about. I wish i had an 8 foot bed i think i could haul more than 8800 lbs if i had the 8 foot bed….but the colors are exactly the same. My father in law bought it brand new and it never came off the farm except to do farm stuff….it has 140,000 miles on it and clean as a whistle …maybe cleaner than yours but not as pretty…lol….sorry i had to get that in since im a girl i guess i can get away with the pun…lol….looks like you are doing better for yourself… im really happy you got your house done…excellent
Okay so living in Oregon with single digits is not a cold climate?
Rarely do we see under 30 where I’m at. Even at low temps, I’d say there is not much use for the intake heater.
I see you use a handle for your accelerator, I myself have the ghost wheel its another wheel behind your steering wheel, you use your finger tips to slide the ghost wheel either left or right which ever you like, what I really love about the wheel is, its acceleration is much faster than the floor pedal, I out did a Corvette at a stop light he couldn't believe a ford diesel beat him off the line and up the street to the next light, it was great
Nice man! I have looked at those. Does the ghost ring tie into the system electronically?
@@LivingOnWheels yes it does there is another small computer block that hooks into the master computer, Idea is a company over in Tea SD that installed the unit
By any chance do you have any links? I’m kind of interested in this.
I do. All the links should be in the description of the video. If you don't see it let me know.
Is there anything special about the RiffRaff code eliminator cable? Will any 14g or larger wire work to ground the solenoid?
Bradley I believe it had a resistor wired in with it as well (not sure what size) but I’m sure you could make your own.
So there should be a resistor in the stock ground cable?
@@bradleymetler4918 The resistor cable is used to ground the power terminal. On the stock setup the heater coat provides the resistance.
I love your determination
My truck makes that same noise when let off throttle. What is it???
Not sure what noise youre talking about
20:42 and 20:49 right when the truck shifted and then you backed out of throttle.
Cool if you dont need it .
Joe what do you think of kand n air filter
They have a pretty bad reputation with diesel trucks. Go with S&B or banks
Joe do you have a pcv relocate kit or do you vent your pvc into the intake? Lots of pro and cons on this mod. Mine is a 6.0 yours is a 7.3. Thanks
John P Richardson once I installed my new turbo it’s been venting to the atmosphere but I plan on putting it through a catch can and back to the intake. Just haven’t fabbed it all up yet
@@LivingOnWheels sounds good Joe. I hope you make a video of that install. I am thinking of doing the same can install. Do you have any brand can back thru the intake in mind?
John P Richardson I got a cheap on off amazon for now. Seems like it will do fine. If I have issues I’ll probably go to Mishimoto and pick up their high flow can.
@@LivingOnWheels Thanks Joe, looking forward to more of your videos.
Did you have to disconnect your batteries. Love the channel
I did not but it might not have been a bad idea hah
Thank you brother. I'm going to install mine tomorrow. Thanks again keep up the show
4:22 what is that plug not plugged into anything
Keith Jacobs plug for the EBPV on the pedestal. I have a delete in place
Is that the OEM ipc sensor on ur truck still
As far as I know it is.
Wish someone could send me one I'm in CA
Heads up, it's 'across', not acrosst. I can't find that word anywhere, I looked.
Hahaha I’m not even sure when I said it but thank you for looking out for me!
I have 2001 7.3 193.000 mails and doing everything but i am still dot ha power went I pushed the gas no power
If there is nothing at all with the throttle pedal then my guess would be your throttle position sensor. Easy thing to swap out.
