I was sweating the project on my 04 F350 but after watching the driver's side and passenger side glow plug replacement videos it's going to be so much easier to do: glow plug & harness replacements, shock replacements(inner fender won't be in my way), and reposition the main harness and realign the steer tires to the steering wheel because I don't like my steering wheel not be straight with my wheels. Yep, I got more than just glow plugs to do but this just made everything look like it will get done quicker without sore knuckles. Thank you.
I have an 03 6.0 that is blowing the engine control fuse because either a glow plug or harness is shorted. I want to change both the harness and plugs but have found very little information about the 03 procedure. Can you give any insight about the 03. I have just recently found your videos and they are awesome.
It’s the bus bar style. It’s pretty much the same procedure just more to get crumbly and brake. I’ve been telling myself I need to do a video on the 03 glow plugs.
Have a question change 03 6.0 I was changing glow plug and a whole glow plug the new glow plug fell in the cylinder. Is there a way to extract it out. Got a small magnet and still can't get it.
@@AutomedicGarage the whole glow plug came off socket went down plug hole. I didn't think that was possible go down that far. Can't find anything on it get it out.
@@Andrew-ju4be no way the threaded portion of the glow plug fell through the threaded portion in the head. You may have put the plug in crooked and dropped it in the rocker box only way you dropped the entire plug in the cylinder is if it was the wrong glow plug and smaller than the threaded portion in the head.
@@AutomedicGarage where OEM glow plugs all other went in fine. Is here a way to get it out. I bought this off the original owner yr ago. Someone used a impact wrench on everything. Caused me a major headache on fuel line cross thread and other things. Changing everything back to OEM parts. This is new problem I've encountered.
@@Andrew-ju4be it’s not in the cylinder I guarantee that. Need to get a borescope and go in a see where it is. It takes some talent to do what you’ve done cause I’ve never heard or seen it.
This was very early on in our UA-cam channel. Stick with us, my editing and videoing quality improved over time. I’ve learned a lot over the last 4 years. Check out some of our other videos.
@@ThomasJones-fn6pc doesn’t point me towards a dummy plug then. I’d be thinking more about glow plugs not all working, or slow to build high pressure oil due to a weak or sticky spring in the upper portion of the standpipe. Possibly a worn LPOP or you have some damage to the LPOP. Could be a weak HFCM causing low fuel pressure at start up or allowing air intrusion or the fuel anti drain back. If your running 15-40 oil it doesn’t help for starting up either. But I wouldn’t be thinking dummy plug unless you have a crank no start or a crank no start hot.
@@ThomasJones-fn6pc why did you do ipr? Did you do glow plug harness? If you perform a glow plug self test KOEO with a scanner does it pass? If your harness was crusty and you reused that could be fail point. Also your GPCM could be bad.

Sure thing. Glad it helped.

Any idea if you can swap the flex harness for the solid one? I have an 03 and I am not a fan of that harness.
@@normanhh3 Arent the 03-04.5 glow pugs just a tad longer, and should NOT be used in 04.5 to 07?
Got a 6.0 disel myself and it just crank no start got any idea it could be the glow plugs. Scanner shows number 5 any help ?
@@jess-vc1mh no, you got more than that going on. Go watch some of my crank no start videos on diagnosing.
@@AutomedicGarage got any idea on what it can be ?
@@jess-vc1mh probably Hpo leak
Hello I like the your video very helpful. Do you offer over the phone diagnostic?
I can
Got any tips for getting the harness back in? 1, 3, and 7 went in but 5 refuses to go in.
Never have had any trouble with getting them back in

I’m assuming you mean the tip off a glow plug fell in because there is physically no way for the entire glow plug to fall into the cylinder.

Great video, but the audio was really challenging in places.

You guys argue like you are married.
I live in Paducah how much install upgrade dummy plugs. Having a long crank problem
Do you know it’s the dummy plugs? Or only dummy plugs? How did you diagnose?
@@AutomedicGarage just put all new glow plugs. And ipr
Only long cranks in cold weather
