Yo!! I’ve been working on this truck for the past 2 days. Came across your video & it fixed my problem. Thank no nonsense.
thank you, short and to the point
Great advice and good vid. SUCH a pain to bleed the system.
Chris Dixon yeah it was definitely a pain in the butt to get all the air out! Thanks for the comment!
Thank you for putting the correct size of the bolt in your video. Would have saved me buying the wrong one! M12x1.5.

FYI, at the time of my posting this, the Harbor Freight Basic Fuel Injector service kit has the correct banjo bolt and gauge with bleeder. Bled mine last night, worked great
Thank you for this comment. Buying one as we speak
Good video. Great idea. Thanks
No problem!
got a 12mm banjobolt ordered from amazon $9 with hose barb. will see if it works.
I have to deal with this when my diesel fuel gels and won't flow. The tool is outrageously expensive.
I made a bleeder with a new banjo bolt drilled through the top then a .22 long rifle brass cartridge also with a hole drilled through the end, gently press fit the brass into the hole you drilled through the head of the banjo bolt, and there you go.
I discovered this technique when stranded while snowmobiling, and the nipple broke off of the fuel pump . I reemed the hole in the aluminum pump body until the brass shell was just too big, then pounded the brass casing in. Ran it like that for two more years, and the new owner didn't change it.
There will almost always be small bubbles because of the fuel agitation from the return line to the tank. This is why aftermarket fuel "lift pumps" are a popular upgrade. Such as the FASS or others, they are air separators.
C S thanks for commenting and filling in some information. I wasn't really sure what's common to see on these 6.4's
NoNonsenseKnowHow no problem. The air is normal, although still a design flaw issue. The aftermarket pump/filter set ups fix it, but they are 500+ bucks at minimum.
How do you drain fuel filter on this truck I have exact same brand and I put gas in it instead diesel by mistake
Ole buddy ford made em with that shrader valve to bleed em with works perfect no need for special tools just a small screwdriver
Which engine oil is perfect for this truck ?
I bleed the RETURN and port
to atmosphere (schrader) ..
until tubes are fluid filled .
What symptoms were you having with the air in the system?
I literally did that today. I don't work on Diesel much. So I asked my co-worker which one was the oil filter, It was the end of the day so I was in a hurry
Is that for diesels or gas super duty's too? Thanks in advance.
This video only pertains to diesels. But mainly the 6.4. In gasoline engines this is never a problem
What exactly do you think they put that fuel test schrader valve on the outlet cooler fuel line for? For looks? Just connect a fuel pressure gauge with a bleed off valve hose. Bleed off the air while you cycle the key fuel pump or use scan tool (If you wont buy a pressure tester your sure not gonna buy a scanner either eh) to command lift pump. When you begin to see nice solid fuel stream with small bubble here and there , start. When it starts , keep draining the excess air until it clears up to solid and your done.No banjo bolt drilling crap, dont even touch the banjo bolt period. Cheap fuel pressure tester is maybe 20 , if you cant get one then you really shouldn't be doing ANY repairs to ANY fuel systems. Guess what you have no MESS either , the basic fuel pressure gauge tester has a 1/8 hose on side you used to drain all that fuel/air into a container and comes with a ford fuel schrader adapter. No diesel all over the engine from leaving cap loose crap...Just drained all right into a container. Dont make things so difficult.
Appreciate your input but let me just fill you in onwhere I'm coming from. This problem happened to me when the customer was waiting. He was pretty upset with me when I told him his truck wasn't starting. He ended up getting a ride to where he had to go so I had a little time with the truck. I don't work on that many diesels and at the time I couldn't find any clean-cut answers online about how to get the air out of the high pressure fuel system on the Ford 6.4L. After looking at a couple forums, this is the message I went with and it worked so I figured I would make a quick video in case anybody else we dealing with a similar problem. That being said, are there other ways to do it? Yeah I'm sure. One guy mentioned just cracking the fuel filter housing loose. My question to you is if it's as simple as the Schrader valve, why do several companies make fuel Bleeder kits for these Ford 6.4l? Sorry if there's any typos in there I was using speak to text and didn't proofread. Thanks, and I appreciate the input
Got one the costumer ran out of diesel,I change the fuel pump for a new one blad the system. Now, long cranks when hot. When its running it works just fine.any advise 😤🤬
No real thoughts come to mind off hand. Maybe there is still some type of air leak in the system? Let me know how you make out, I'm curious. Sorry I couldn't be of more help
I give up,Im taking it to a pro. Luckily I’m a ford guy,this peace of shit truck.
challenger srt what was the problem
Sold the truck
There is a Schrader valve next to the banjo bolt that you are supposed to use, from what i was told. Witch is the inlet side. what is the difference??
It’s what your supposed to use I’ve bleed em that’s run out of fuel and quit it works perfect
How do you take the air out of the fuel cooler?
The fuel cooler has a +- on it, jump it. I like to bump it a couple times too make sure the bleeder on the turbo is off
Good evening I have f50 2013 6.7
I changed the fuel filters after that the truck doesn't star
What should I do
Thank you
Use OEM (Motorcraft) filters only. The aftermarket filter don’t work in my truck.
Are the 2013 the Same way?
No
I’m having the exact problem right now and customer is very upset
this banjo looks like the low press outlet of the fuel cooler
I changed the fuel filters on my 6.7 last night and didn't get the lower housing tight enough. I primed the system 8 times and it wouldn't start. After a few more attempts it started, but I got a low fuel pressure warning. Shut the truck down, realized me error and tightened the housing the rest of the way. Now the truck seems to run fine with no error codes. Could I still have air in my system or will it eventually work its way out?
From my experience, the 6.7's Purge the air out themselves no problem. You should be fine. Thanks for commenting and sharing your story. I'm sure this will help others who run into same problem
Air in the 6.4l is more of a pain
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Thank you for the reply, I am sure I will use more of your videos in the future. I needed to hear that it would all be alright, so thank you.
@@Bbjorkman007 no problem at all man, and I greatly appreciate that! thanks
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow if my truck starts after getting air out of the line ,and i think i still have air in there because when i run the truck for a bit it seems like it goes loses power then jumps back in to power for about a few seconds ,could i still have air in my lines ? It starts right up everytime though
What does the banjo bolt get torqued to
I'm not sure what the torque spec is. Good and tight
If you find this back, let me know and I will update the video description
Depends if youre using copper or Viton washers actually.
Jon Marshall I had the copper washer, I torqued it to tight ;)
@@Reviewerguy1228 lol there ya go. If memory serves me right its like 32Nm on the copper guys and 25Nm on the Viton. But dont quote that exact. Glad you got it to work!
Just prime the system by turning the key to the on position and leave it like that for a couple minutes before starting the truck.
That doesn't work if you get air in the high-pressure fuel system.
That's why they make a bleed kit for it.
Lol. Just prime it if only it was that easy
Having the same issue with my 08. The fuel has air in the system and has been bleeded. Would turn on for a few seconds then turns off. Any other suggestions
Shut man i got air on my 2008 f250 now i got the problem.
So now i dont know how to solve the problem whut out special tools. Any tips?
There's no other way that I know except for what I used in this video. That sucks. Let me know how you make out if you find a different way ! and good luck
Take your truck to the shop... YT videos are like virus. Followed every step and fucked my truck up.
It works, it's just a pain in the ass. Takes an hour or more of bleeding the manual way by cracking that bleeder bolt at the top. It's just a very tedious process. Wish there was an easier way.
Use the port on left hose( opposite. One he used) just cycle key and push in with phillips and it will drain air out
@@mikegarner8170 Thats the low pressure port side . The banjo is for the high pressure system .
If your 08 6.4 won’t start, cranks, no fuel to engine, low pressure fuel pump needs replacing. Don’t be cheap an buy the pump only! The entire housing may need to be replaced. Save yourself my mistake. Lmao
Be aware that the fuel intake strainer inside the fuel tank rots and crumbles to pieces... thus if the tank is below 1/4 level of fuel, it will begin to suck air. Also when that strainer falls apart some of it can get sucked up into the intake line, I found pieces of it all the way up to the fuel separator! Also, that strainer part in the bottom of the tank it comes in 2 sizes and it's random which size your truck will have if you can believe it... you need to measure the diameter of the steel intake line inside the tank to determine which size fuel strainer you need. Ford made POS I swear! Even after all I've replaced I'm afraid to drive this Ford F350 I inherited from my father now, it's FOR SALE I want it gone!
we tried this and it still gets air in the system and wont start
nevin jacobs what did it end up being
What was the problem
Reviewerguy1228 did u find out the problem?
Use the bleeder port on the left hose it has the cap on it.
NeverTryNexus it was air in the system, I bought the $90 kit off amazon and bled the high side, and used a psi checker, hollowed it out and attached it to the small hose to drain the low side
Or just use the bleeder valve to the left that works just fine. It has gray cap on it
On a 6.4 liter?
Theres no bleeder valve on 6.4.
@@victorlester3925 yes! exactly. lol
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow yes there is im running this issue right now on a 6.4 at work bleeder valve IS on it
I have done many oil and fuel filter changes and never had this problem. Until I did it on my own truck. It started up fine and ran for a few seconds and you could tell it went ah fresh oil. Then it shut off and won't restart. I only tried a few times but I'm in a parking lot and it's almost ten pm. My service dog and I live in this piece of shit so I have food I can make dinner for us and try bleeding the system in the morning. Need to just leave it alone for tonight and take a look in daylight. Hopefully neither the basket tweakers nor the cops will bother me overnight and I'll get some rest. I'm a disabled senior citizen and I don't need anymore nonsense right now. I'm ready to set this piece of shit on fire and walk away.
Cycle the key 3 or 4 times then turn it on again and bleed the shrader valve it’s the thing beside where he had his hose hooked up looks like a tire valve take something and push it in keep doing that until the air is all gone and it’ll start right back
