Oil coolers not doing to good. this was at 50 degrees outside
Ordered everything from mkm customs, oil cooler,gaskets,egr delete. - Basic Solution(TM) for Ford 6.0L Powerstroke With Sinister EGR Delete Kit, Oil Cooler and Intake Gaskets
Im going to post pictures the whole way.
:dunno: if we need another write up but oh well
Parts should be here tomorrow some time. starting the tear down in the morning.
See how it goes
Heres the cost so far....
Coolant flush-
-10 gal distilled water from hyvee ($0.88 gal) = $8.88
- 3 gal of zerex elc-1 concentrate (ordered from Napa @ 19.99 gal x 3) = $59.97
- bottle of vc-9 (got from ford $32.00) = $32.00
Grand total = $108
Plus $40 in diesel
Oil cooler, egr delete,and all gaskets. (from mkm)
$665.00
Edge cs,pyro,and dash pod
$404.57
Box of shop rags -$8
2 cans of carb cleaner - $10
4 gal of rotella t6 and motorcraft filter (from walmart :doh
$107
Total so far..... $1342.57
got her in the garage
grille off
a couple of buckets will be handy. one for oil and one for coolant
after 15 of rinsing soap out of the damn thing its good to go for coolant.
the pet**** is a 3/4" wrench. i put a small piece of hose on it to keep the mess down
drained the oil
air filter goin away
get the shroud out of the way. kind of a pain
tubes coming off
radiator hose off
Get both battery's out before disconnecting the alternator
i decided to go heeman on the belt and just pull it off. also zip tie it off so it doesn't come off all of the pulleys.
pull the bots out
outta there! also took out the bolt out of the feed line for the heater core while i was there.
went and pulled all 3 fuel lines off. make sure you use line wrenches!!!
pulled the rest of the intake off. its bolted to the FICM
lots of CCV oil on my turbo. Turbo looks great for 50k miles of K&N
horrible picture but take the 4? bolts out around the base of the oil filter/fuel filter assessable
lift it on out of there
getting the first turbo bolt out. 1/4" ratchet, long extension and a wobble is your friend
after i got all the bolts out i took off the v-band camp that holds the down-pipe on. a pry-bar might be helpful if its stuck on there.
