man I wish ford would make the excursion come back

i have several customers and friends with excursions. Air conditioning performance on these is such a challenge here in Texas with high humidity and heat especially with such a huge area to cool and a fixed displacement compressor coupled with both a fixed office tube and a expansion valve. Really we need a adjustable park idle speed also. I will try this vot.

is there a way to text fuel pump out of truck?

Thanks,Awesome video! I have the v10 excursion and the ac works intermittently on low, if I turn it on high she starts blowing warm and suggestions?

That top filter is filthy

I think I need a new orfice tube

Best video to explain this drivabilty problem's

Why do a video and not put a parts list? No money in it for you huh?

Great content man 🔥 love these bullnoses

had to have gotten here by #zip ties and bias plies

Thank you for sharing I love old trucks!

Hey thank you for the video i bought my first ford 1999 ford f 350 4x4 with the v10 i wondered how long i can make that engine last vs 7.3

My excursion is my 1st powerstroke 2005 6.0 bulletproofed...I absolutely love it interior is a little outdated for 2024 but that's makes it even more bad ass these things are classics and I love rare sh*&

great video thanks! Im about to head out into the driveway and do this myself. Just curious why you didnt put the filter in before you installed the HCFM?

Well unlike the 7.3 and 6.0 diesel V8s the 6.8 V10 has no power adder of any kind so I'm wondering how much more weight towing and horsepower can be found with adding twin turbos or 3.0 Whipple Supercharger?

Built Ford Tuff!!!

thanks for the vid good content

not helpful, sorry you got too complicated

I have the same issue but when I plug the harness into a window switch my dash goes out and into protective mode ??? Any ideas ? More than just that wires

I have the exact same excursion. Your video was great. I am a do it yourself backyard mechanic. My excursion is blowing warm air in front and cold in back. Just started. I have 340K miles on it and no rust as I live in AZ. Would replacing the stock orifice with a variable orifice may help the car cool. Also ordered the by-pass valve for the coolant from Diesel Site to not run the hot radiator fluid through the heater core when the AC is running. Let me know your thoughts. If you live in AZ and do mechanic work for others I would be interested. Thx

I buzz test my injectors and 5 fails, I switch connection with 5 and 7 and then 7 fails and 5 passes, should I be looking at a ficm?

I see that many people "upgrade" these OE units because they claim it doesn't have the rating to adequately power the glow plugs. Have you done any testing on it that demonstrates the glow plugs draw more current than what the OE unit supports? Also, if these are failing for someone often, could that be an indicator of failing glow plugs? I have a feeling that they likely designed these cheap relays to fail to make sure someone wasn't running bad glow plugs for an extended period of time.

Very nice video. Very informative as I would have done the same . But in the diesels- I couldn’t stress enough on the oil changes and the fuel filter changes. I changed oil and fuel filters EVERY 5,000 MILES on my 6.0 in my super duty! The injectors on these two diesels not only run off of high pressure oil to fire, they also need high fuel pressure to fire! Don’t be like me and try to put off oil changes. EVERY 5,000! I recommend Ford 5w40 full synthetic. Reason for fuel filters is they need clean fuel. Oil change intervals. Do it. I let mine go to 9,000 miles because, hey, I was a little bribe at the time and I buy only Motorcraft when I can or WIX. When I pushed the oil change, well, had an injector stick open. Put raw fuel on top of piston and like the EGR cooler, you can’t compress a liquid, so in turn it didn’t completely pop the head gasket until I got on interstate and put my foot in it. I had a stand alone boost fooled (made the veins stay wider and opened longer, must have performance inhancing part from BD Diesl.) one injector cost me a little over $500.00. I do almost all of my own work as to I was a tech for 11 years, and I guess I still am. But it did case it to lift the head. Also, the heads and block have a .002 MAX standard that they have to be in this variance to be calledn”good” cores. Anything more than that, toss them because you can’t machine the heads or deck the block any more than .002. They offer a set of aftermarket heads that are awesome and way cheaper than Ford. They have more stout injector bosses, and come with injector cups pressed in. Injector cups and commandants stretched to injectors, like the nipple seals (hah hah) tend to wear out too causing hard starts. Change as needed especially with injector changes, but uses a special tool, you can buy it almost anywhere. I’m still learning on the v10s, and might have missed the oil consumption problem. I have found, as I own an excursion with a 2 valve v10, that freer exhaust helps with this. They take a low viscosity oil, 5w20, and I’m told you have to use this for right machining tolerances. I think there had to be something else. The higher heat levels, in my mind will cause the oil to atomise in the crankcase air and evacuate, hence the PVV valve and line have a massive amount of oil in the line leading to intake, then burned off. Change plugs every 80,000 miles and bump the torque up from 15 to 25 +/- to your comfort zone and quality of torque wrench used. I’d trust a $400 torque wrench more than I would that $30 everyone buys, like me. So I’m wondering if they make a baffle kit for this problem. But free flowing exhaust , the v10 LOVES it. Mine runs like a totally different truck, and the fuel mileage jumped way up, I’m assuming 4 to 5 miles to gallon, if not more. I can’t prove it as to I didn’t get numbers before doing improvements. I also did the cheap cold air intake also. It loves also. Trust me. But I love this vehicle. Love the v10, it is a torque monster! The 6.0l diesel, one of the best in my. Oil after Bulletproofed and tuned. Still have to be careful though. Fluid changes. That goes for the coolant too!

Are there any upgrades i should be making before putting a new intake in?

I was just thinking about doing this I am having some bump steer after a 4” lift on my 2001 XLT expedition 4x4 and I read a steering stabilizer can help and or solve the problem so thanks for the video . I am curious how it helped you out I would be grateful for any info.

Thank you. You just solved a major problem. Little Victories!

what does it mean when the key is on and both of the 2 smaller lugs show power even after the relay has stopped sending power to the glow plug lug?

be ready for a fuel pump, you smell fuel by driver rear door, go right for using a camera an look at top of fuel pump they all rot out.

How can I find this part (4c2z-19e558-ba) for the AC system in a 2000 E-350 Van. Ford said it is unavailable now?

9:30 you summed up my excursion. Great video, you put out a lot of great info. New subscriber and looking forward to finishing this series!

Hey brother, PERFECT video. Love the details and simple points while working in first person. You are why youtube is legendary.

Nice video! I have the Harbor Freight Gauge set too. On a side note if you go to put R143A in and it goes it really slow, then replace the Low Hose Coupler Valve on the end of the Blue Hose. This shook me for a loop for awhile. Once I replaced the Coupler it worked as it should. Only one more thing, to handle R134A in the states you don't need an EPA license to buy or use it at "Home", but you may if you have a "Business", just thought I'd make that clear for anyone watching. Loved the video so much I added it to my own channels playlist of AC Videos. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya

Excursion owners be like: "Who needs a mansion when you can just live in your V10, am I right? 😂

This was so helpful and informative!

Good video.

Ive always liked these vehicles . I have a large family in vegas. we have only owned a suburban for our family, but as of lately, I've been considering going deisal specifically excursion. im alos gettomg ready to look at a duramax suburban this week What do you recommend for me with a large family of 10 and we need 4x4 because we do offroading alot

Do you have to tune it

Where did you get the front brake line with vacuum lines?

The v10 is a great engine hauled heavy trailers for 20 years with a 2001 ford f350

You put it on this setting as you don't show us the setting

I installed one side wrong and had to swap up pipes , are the Gasket Donuts reusable if it hasn’t been in any heat ?

Thanks man having the same issue, going to check it out

Great video a few side notes that will save you time… Valve cover is 70-75 inch pounds The IPC is 96 inch pounds , more important is to make sure the gasket below the valve cover and Icp is in place and seated. ( huge oil leak) 06 oil rail bolts are t-30 (10 ft lbs tighten starting in the middle and counter clockwise crossing pattern ) never go in a straight line. The injector hold downs that are t-30’s -35’s or 40’s T-30’s 24 ft lbs T-35’s 26 ft lbs T-40’s 28 ft lbs Dummy plugs are a Allen head 10mm or 12mm (60 ft lbs) (if you have 10’s it’s the old ones, the updated version is the 12mm head ) False torque is more than likely what caused this issue with this injector, the last person to install the injectors did not blow out the bolt holes and caused a false torque after a few heat cycles the fluid passed by the bolts, and now the injector hold down is loose, causing hydro lock, filling the cylinder with fuel and blowing the injector and the rest of the damage. The glow plug is 10mm (torque is 96 inch pounds)

you have the have tow package with a 9 3/4 rear axle

Hey Andrew. New subscriber here. Greetings from DRMC. Forgot how much I missed you till I found your channel. Glad it looks like you’ve found your niche. Your more of a diesel dude than a steamer. And you never looked quite right wearing a white collar. I look foreword to following you.

Thanks man my passenger lost power great start for 👍

Did you really pack grease in a oil fed wheel bearing 😂

Love my 7.3. The only issues i have is the cold weather. Its hard to keep the batteries happy and start properly in very cold winter months

Unrelated question: Have the leaf springs been inverted on this Excursion? Or, did Ford install the leaf springs upside down by design?

Just bought a very clean 99 F 250, previous owner installed a 4” exhaust, with muffler, I think that muffler needs to go.
