- I get people asking me questions on DieseTechRon.com about the steps I leave out on the shorter videos, so I made one that covers the complete install from start to finish. I know it's long but people had a lot of questions.
- ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Today, its 2022 and after turning wrenches on gas hi-po and race cars for over 40 years, I'm now retired and have to provide service on my one and only vehicle, a 6.0 Powerstroke. In recent years, I've replaced the turbo, injectors as well as a variety of sensors and other service projects. Earlier this year, I deducted that it was time for a new oil cooler and EGR cooler and last week, it became time to address this without delay so I returned to TH-cam and found this video. This video IS the FINAL WORD on performing this replacement. I wish I could have known Ron when he was still with us. His videos are brilliant and whenever I've needed to research or perform any service on this truck, I've always seeked out Ron's videos for the best assistance........still after so many years since his passing, he's still helping hundreds and hundreds of us working on our own 6.0s. God bless him and to all his survivors and family. And if you're about to tackle any project on a 6.0 Turbo and find a video by Ron, rest assured you've found all and the very best help you'll need to complete whatever project it is that you're preparing to tackle. RIP, Ron.
ATTENTION!!! I wish there was the "DONATE" option to benefit Ron's widow & family. His TH-cam video collection benefits us all and are the absolute best when it comes to Ford 6.0 diesels. If the option to donate becomes available it is my hope that we all contribute to his family in his memory.
There is a go fund me for Ron huxell. I have donated more than once. I try to remember to donate each time I watch one of his videos. We all should
Thank you, I’m a broke kid rn but I’m going to start donating once I can.
RIP Ron. I just purchased my first diesel and although you may not be here with us anymore your videos, knowledge, and legacy will be helping people for many years to come. I wish I had the chance to thank you while you were here but instead I'll thank you for looking after my 6.0 from above bro! Rest In Peace Ron
I know Ron is gone, but if anyone in his family still looks at these comments, they should know Ron's videos are still a gold mine and much appreciated. Ron's loss is all the more sad because he seemed like a genuinely good, generous, honest, kind soul and hard worker. RIP friend.

To the family of Ron. First off my condolences. I recently just bought my first diesel. Researching the main issues led me to see Ron's videos. I can't tell you how much he has helped me. When I read that he passed my heart broke. Although it was years ago having just met him through his videos I mourned. Ron is a special man, it takes a certain (word) to be a teacher. Not only was his instruction precise and dumb downed for a not even close to a mechanic (me) it was as if his guidance was made just for me. I'm not sure if you will read this but in the chance that you do I pray that your hearts are at peace and I thank you (all of you) that shared in his life. Most of all I want you to know how much I appreciate him. Ron is the utmost of what I try to do in life : Always teach with love. God bless you.
Nicely said pal!
Found Ron in 2018 and he has been a blessing for me and my 6.0 still here watching his videos on Thanksgiving 2022. Rest in peace Ron!
Just bought a 6.0 and Ron has been helping me even though he has passed.
He lives on through his earned knowledge and generosity to share it.
Helped me back in 2015 and now till this day you are still helping the Powerstroke community Thanks Again Ron! RIP brother.
As an original owner of a 2003 6.0 I have been watching Ron’s videos for many, many years. Great resource. Saved me lots of $$ as I’ve been working on cars since I was a kid. I hope his family keeps his legacy alive. I lost my older sister unexpectedly this April 2024. She also lived in Hemet, CA. She was only 54. RIP Ron and Maundy.
Thank you for this video to teach us. Not everyone can afford to pay dealers or shop prices, so we need to do major maintenance ourselves. I was successful doing this because of you! We miss you, man. Thank you for your family too.
Over 700k views on TH-cam, and I must have watched this video at least 100 times while doing my 6.0. His explanations are so clear and to the point. It bothers me that he is gone from this world. But the knowledge that he shared and that I now have - Thanks to him - have served me well. Sometimes I find myself asking, "OK Ron, what do I do now?" And the answer comes to me. Sometimes I feel like he is watching while I work on my truck. Like a Guardian Mechanic Angel. God Bless you Ron. Yours was a life well lived.
Man I miss this guy, hasn’t been anyone like him since.
Yeah, i know right. I'm still learning good things.

He did such a good job with these videos and was apparently so knowledgeable and was willing to share it
@Emery Henry 33
Pickin up right where my boy left off🫂🔥💯
Your wife is a trooper for standing there and filming you for 2 hours. Mine wouldve said "Um, No, get a tripod."
About six to eight hours actually. It was a whole Saturday. I'm lucky she and the kids help out when they can.
@@DieselTechRon u bet buddy, i wlda been there too!
You are still missed to this day Ron. You're the best.
So sorry to the family for their loss. Ron was an honest, humble and helpful man.

@GREGGS BODILLON Because God needs them in heaven.
It really cracks me up that Milwaukee told you not to promote their tools. Suits....
Ron has Helped me So much. I want to send some cash to his estate/wife/family. We as a ford 6.0 community should all donate money to his family after all how many times has this man helped each one of us out of a jam and not to mention the savings in repair cost ??? My conscience wont let me keep "not doing something" God bless him !
A wonderful wife Ron has. Not sure my wife would bare with me for 10+ hours. I still have your FICM Ron....a great memory of you. I anticipate you are sitting on the right side of Jesus.
This guy is such a huge blessing to the 6.0 community. He deserves a free truck or some sort of award for all his efforts to educate others.
So very sad this amazing .....kind....generous man has passed.....must have been an honour to know him...hopefully i meet him up there.
I second that motion,you are just right. Such a colossal loss. Honestly Ford Motor Company should do something huge for the family that he left behind because he really promoted their products and made them easy for people to use. May God continue to rest his soul.
i cant believe Milwaukee asked you not to promote there product first off your a master technician with outstanding work methods and this is free advertizing plus i didn't have any interest in there products until ive seen them put to use in all your videos i dont buy a tool casue someone unboxes it in a video and says its nice i like to see it being used in real time
I just want to say I've been a mechanic for a long time and diesel tech Ron was an amazing mechanic and you can just tell he was such a nice person such a sad loss so sorry for the family I still watch these videos and learn something every time I watch it thank you to the family for keeping them up
Best guesstimate, every five minutes Ron is saving a new 6.0 owner thousands of dollars.
RIP ron .u were one of a kind
RIP RON Gone but never forgotten God must’ve needed a diesel mechanic in heaven this guy walks you through step-by-step he’s a 6.0 master mechanic if it wasn’t for him I would’ve never been able to get the job done
R.I.P. Bless your wife and family. We need more people like you here it's not fair
I still watching hes vedeos when im working in Ford trucks he was the best
R.I.P. Good Brother. He was like Everyones Powerstroke Dad!
truth, never saw someone so willing to help so many complete strangers. what a wonderful man he was.
impleasen i
Powerstroke dad that's funny😎
I'm finishing up my oil cooler/BPD EGR repair and have watched your video while working along with it every step of the way. I wish ALL vehicle repair videos were as thorough as this. THANKS!!
How has this repair held up in your truck?
Man your a badass ! I love seeing woman taking on working on trucks. Here I am being a puss lol all bad
This video is priceless. It was like having a master mechanic looking over my shoulder the entire time I was working on my pickup. So many great tips and tricks.
Maybe an angel named Ron was watching over your shoulder
Thank you so much Ron! Just installed my oil cooler today. Your videos continue to help people!! R.I.P brother!!
Wish I seen this guys stuff while he was alive . What an amazing guy May You RIP sir
RIP Ron, your videos saved me tons of money... your in a better place, thank you for your help
He was so amazing when it came to explaining his procedures, clear, thorough, detailed etc. It sucks the fact that there hasn’t been anyone with his characteristics able to help new mechanics/technicians well there is a few great ones but not like RON.
There has never been another Diesel Ron...such a loss...such detail in his videos....I've learn so much... Saved thousands of people money with his awesome videos...I did the oil cooler ...just watched video step by step...R.I.P
Thank you, man, wherever you are and thanks to your family to keep this on because still helping people like me
may G/d bless you Ron
Here i am watching this video, may 15 2024 and even though he has left this world years ago his knoleage and videos stay alive for eternity after so many years he is still eloing the diesel community and guys like me to gain confindence and tackle this jobs that cost thousands of dollars at the dealer or at the shop. This geltelman lrfr a legacy and a lot of us will make sure we keep his memory alive and his legacy. Thanks ron and god bless you wherever you are 🙏
I have watched a lot of Ron's Video's on the 6.0 learning a ton of information that has saved me countless amount of money. He will forever be remembered for his absolute Mastery in the Mechanical Industry!!! There will never be another like him. He was so very generous with all of his knowledge that he voluntarily shared with Millions around the world with the hopes of others to spread his joy and inspiration. Condolences to his wife, children and family 🙏🏾🙌🏾 Thank You 🤙🏾
This guy was one of the best teachers I've ever had. I'd listen to his videos and follow along on my projects step by step. Just a good all around guy. Thanks!!
Rip Ron. Thank you for helping me keep my truck going. I felt like you were part off my family.
Thank you Ron for all your videos. You are a simple kind hearted man. RIP, Ron. Us garage mechanics miss you dearly. You are the power stroke genius. Perhaps god had superduty trucks in heaven falling apart...
As I watched this, I grabbed my truck keys to run to Lowes to get one of those M-12 ratchets. Trying to be like Ron. Good thing I didnt buy one! I'm not trained either. I would have wasted my money. Thank you Milwaukee for stopping me. Dewalt was happy to sell to an amateur like me
Absolute magnificent educational video ... Thank you to Rons family for continuing to run his TH-cam channel.... I wish I had the opportunity to have known Ron in person.
Man I would be seriously lost with my truck if it weren't for Ron. He was a angel even in life just wanting to help people.
that m12 electric ratchet is the best I work on jetskis for a living and its one of the best investments ive made
I have watched this vid many times as a refresher for diving into the 6.0l engine.
I would like to thank Ron's wife for putting up with him and helping him make this vid as I am sure it was more of a labor of love than a desire to stand there for hours on end watching Ron do something she had no interest in learning. Your are the hero behind Ron that helped him help so many in the past and on into the future.
I am sorry that he left you and us so soon and I am also selfishly sorry that he did not have the chance to make other vids on the Ford 6.4l and 6.7l which I am sure he would have moved on to in time.
Thank you
In November I bought my 1st diesel. 07 6.0. It needed some work. With Ron's amazing videos I took on a project. So far it's going good. I could never have done without him. Rest in peace sir.
You did a terrific job Misses Huxell/ kids working the camera for Ronald on his videos. Its easy to tell that Ron was a true gentleman in his nature by listening to him in these videos. I have spent a number of hours watching his efforts, learning about my 6.0, and likely will spend many more. Thanks for all these efforts, Best regards, Alan.
I just watched this video and looked down and read the comments. I thank God for this video and Ron I know you are there beside God. Thank you Thank you Thank you to him and his wife, she did a great job holding the camera. God Bless the entire family. He truly sounded and acted like a good man.
dude, I cant thank you enough for sharing this knowledge....my oil cooler replacement went flawless thanks to your video, you are my 6.0 obi-wan-kenobi!!
I'm so jealous of you ron, I just graduated highschool and am going to get a job with ford mainly there heavy duty shops (powerstrokes), I own a 6.0 and done studs and egr delete and new hpop and ur video's make it were ill be ahead of the game when I go into my internship training I thank you very much ur what I wont to be when I get older. Keep the videos coming all the info I dont know IV learned from you. Thank you an god bless.
rastafarianWeedsmoke Ron is one of the best for sure! I am happy to see your interest in diesel engines, and your making a good move to become a diesel tech.I just retired from a 46yr. career in diesel powered equipment.I am EMD engine certified,but worked on almost every brand.You will do well I'm sure with the Ford company,as they will train you and you'll become a valuable technician.It's hard work sometimes,but I liked the field. I raised 3 daughters and had a good life.You can too.
Your a very good Mechanic Ron. Wish we had guys like you around here.
I bought my truck already studded and bulletproofed but I cherish it and monitor the camshafts religiously. Thanks to your family for keeping your memory alive!
Miss you Ron,prayers for your family.
Thanks Ron for your guidance. Don't even own or work on 6.0ls but here I am absorbing your knowledge. RIP.
To Ron's family, I just want to say I am sorry for your loss but what is remarkable about Ron's work is that it lives on and continues to help people like me. Thanks for leaving these great videos and legacy that Ron gave us.
Just want to comment to keep the video alive. This video made this task amazingly simple and I wanted to extend my gratitude to the wonderful lady holding the camera. Was quoted 3200 to replace the egr cooler, oil cooler, gp 1, thermostat, clean the egr valve and turbo. I had The Illness so was off for the week and got to get out there and knock it out at a leisurely pace for 916 bucks. Not that I couldn't have done it without this video but I wouldn't have done it had I not watched this first. Thank you again for having a steady camera hand and keeping the video up.
Im just joining the 6.0 fam, just got my first diesel, just discovered this channel. Thank you so much for keeping the all the content available. RIP RON
this guy has saved me thousands .....very informative, knowledgeable and so forth! I appreciate all the videos you have! awesome job brother keep up the good work!
Wow to watch this man move through this engine and his obvious knowledge was awesome and incredibly impressive. I just got a powerstroke and after several video breathed a sigh of relief when I found this video. Yet I was sad to read and after further detail discovered Ron was deceased. Peace and love to the family! As you know, his videos continue to reach us!
RIP Ron. This video just saved me money and the hassle of having a mechanic do a half ass job. Did it myself and made sure it was clean and done right
Milwaukee...guess I'll spend my money on a your competitors products since my ASE Master Cert doesn't include specialized training for your products.
Hahha. Yeah I have the same tool. Hf just came out with some really cool looking long neck ratchets. I think I'll try them out..
Milwaukee has become overpriced junk compared to what they used to be.
Thanks to you and your dedicated camera crew! I'm clumsy so I always remove that oil filter riser stem cause its plastic.
Thank you Ron Rip. Thanks to the family for keeping these videos up I could not have completed this job with out them. They are still helping alote of us mechanics out here. Thanks again Andrew from Colorado.
Not many people would take this much time to teach others like Ron did. What an example he set for others to follow.
Once again, Ron saves my day!! His videos are like going to school!! Miss you Ron
At 19:30 to about 2 minutes past, Ron saved us Ford 6.0 owners at least $100. Thanks Ron-You are remembered.
Used a Ron trick today to diagnose a boost leak, Rest in peace you absolute legend.
DieselTechRon was the Bob Ross of diesel. RIP brother, thank you for all your wisdom.
DieselTechRon =SUBSTANTIAL
Rest In Peace DieselTechRon 🙏 🕊
Thank you very much
From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧
Ron I just want to take and say a few things you're not using a tables and you're not trying to be somebody that you're not I just want to say that you are probably one of the best mechanic that I have seen on TH-cam yet the people that says bad things about your videos and what you're doing there trying to make yourself feel better you're the best God bless you keep on
Thank you Diesel Tech Ron. I just followed this video to fix my truck. I know you have passed but I am grateful for your knowledge you continue to help others even after your passing. Thank you and rest in peace.
Thanks to Ron and his family, without his videos and guidance, I would be lost.
My 6.0 still running after 300k because of Ron. His family should package these videos on dvds. So valuable
I have watched Ron's videos lots and he was the guy I would go to and find his video when I wanted to work on my truck because he would let you know and show you all his little tricks for doing a job which comes from experience. I know he is gone and is missed by his family and many friends. To his family and friends please know that Ron was a genuine nice guy who liked to help people as he has helped me and is sorrily missed. I never knew him personally but sure wish I had, RIP my friend and condolences to his family.
Got my 1st truck and I’m here just looking and heard the sad news my condolences to the family ❤️💯
Ron, your videos have been a great help to all of us. I have a great understanding of the 6.0 and how to install these costly and complex parts. Without your videos I would have never even thought of most of the tasks I perform on these trucks.
Thanks Again.
I want to thank you for your videos. I just completed some "EGR work" and replaced my oil cooler while I was in there. Your video was a live saver in saving me $1300 in labor charges at the local diesel shop. Thanks!
i dont even have a 6.0 but i like to watch Ron work because i learn alot anyways. Thank you Ron
This guy is the best I am putting on a bulletproof diesel external oil cooler right now watching his videos. What would we do without Ron? God bless him.
It’s time for me to do this repair and this is the go to channel. Thank you Ron, thank you Ron’s family. I’ve been getting educated here for years. We miss you buddy.
I have always worked on older gasoline engines just bought a 2004 f350 dually with a 6.0 I gained alot of confidence watching this video I appreciate how well everything was explained. A very good teacher.
Thank you for showing, I wish I was closer to you so you could do my service, I can't work anymore on my Excursion, I was a hostage and they bust my knees. I hope you and your family have a good NEW YEAR, with good health, love, and prosperity.
Man you are sooooo good at these powerstrokes it's unbeatable the knowledge you have! Great job buddy! Great videos. Keep them coming.
Ron, just did an EGR delete, oil cooler, STC fitting, turbo drain tube, blue spring update, banjo bolts and all of the goodies that go along with that on my 07 on Friday.
I watched this video once or twice and it made all of the difference! The tips about how to get to certain bolts, how many are here and there really sped it up for me. Other than a leak at the paper gasket on the turbo feed line, everything went perfect. Got that sorted out and now its running great.
Just wanted to let you know that a video of this size was definitely worth doing. I appreciate the time you put in. It definitely made it a lot easier on me!
Does the egr delete make you smoke more?
I did the work myself just used the video as a guide.
And the EGR delete will just make the truck more reliable and less likely to fail. Smoke is usually directly related to the tune in the truck.
RJ Webber was doing the oil cooler a necessity just wondering because I'm debating on whether or bit to buy an 07 that has everything bulletproofed besides the oil cooler.
My EGR is deleted but doesn't smoke at all
Thanks for the Extended Video! This really helped a lot. Your effort on these are greatly appreciated.
You are the Man!!!! From Texas, After battling my 6.0 2005 for 6 years I made the last Cast on your Video. Installed a Bullet Proof kit with Heavy duty oil cooler , EGR cooler and oil filter. Truck is running great. Appreciated Ron!!!
Good to hear. Thank you
I cannot thank you enough for this video!! It was a huge help this weekend! I appreciate the time you invested in this video.
still watch these amazing videos he made... lost my dad last year..... i do not think i will ever fully get over it.... god bless and thanks for keeping these amazing videos open for us all to see and learn.
You make some Great vids, I have learn a lot from you teachings!! Thank you very much. I didn't know anything about my diesel engine until I started watching you work on 6.0s.
I love these videos. Ron is so knowledgable and the detail he provides in these videos are so much help.
You're video has proven to me how much a good mechanic is worth.
Nice job of showing how to do all aspects of the oil cooler, also what to watch out for and be careful of.
The honesty throughout video is great and your wife is a good camera operator, thank you.
Thanks Ron! Glad we’re still able to learn from you! Such a humble guy.
RIP Ron.. Thank you for all your very helpful videos. You did teach me a lot of things. I heard of your passing today and I was shocked... My deepest condolences to the familly, frieds and loved ones... :(
Rons videos have always been so helpful to me to keep my 11 year old truck running. I'm so thankful for everything he has done for all of us 6.0 owners. Thanks always, RIP
This is the best video of this type work that I have seen. You do a great job explaining while you go..Great Job.
Damn I’ve seen a few of his videos over the past month because I purchased a 05 f-250 but I had no idea he passed away until I read on the comments!!!! Needless to say he helped us out a lot! And I’m sure he was proud of that. RIP Ron
We miss you diesel tech Ron. His tutorials are still inspirational and very educational. I have learned a lot from him while working g on my 6.0 powerstroke.
Ive just started watching Rons videos. I have a 2008 6.0 e350. He has already taught me quite a bit and helped with me changing an EGR valve and testing my glowplugs. What an asset he was to everyone. RIP Ron.
I watched this video a few years ago and completely bullet proofed my 06 6.0 liter with amazing results and don’t consider myself a mechanic. RIP Ron.
