    HEY, don't be bad talking the power stroke. I have replaced the oil passage o-rings on a 7.3 turbo on a pickup which the oil passages are on the bottom of the turbo. I was 60 years old, had to lay across the top of the engine and didn't whine as much as you two. It was my daughters truck so dad had to come through. I think I love this video the most because your doing something I've actually done before.

    Worked for a company that used Ford f450. We worked out of town a lot. On the way home, his vehicle went down. He said load boom. The banjo clamp broke on the turbo. Only place to get one was Ford dealer shop. Used a 4" hose clamp for temporary fix. Got to the dealer, wanted $70 just for the clamp. Bought one, but just the 4" hose clamp on till sold the truck 5 years later.

    A tip for using flat tip screwdrivers, use a good magnetic one. It helps to hold the tip to the screw so it doesn’t keep slipping off the screw! Personally I still hate flat head screws but since learning that tip it does make it more bearable and bonus for holding the screw when it’s fully removed so I don’t drop it!

    The waste gate opens a passage to allow exhaust to bypass some of the air blowing across the exhaust impeller and put pressure to both sides of the exhaust impeller making it slow down, the cold start restriction actuator piston is notorious for leaking oil after some time, the glow plugs and intake air plenum heater works fine for most climates, you can get a pedestal without the actuator or unplug before it sucks in a bunch of dirt damaging the o-ring, powerstrokes are interesting engines

    I’ve never had the front end fall out of my Ford or dropped a transmission or had to replace body panels. LOL Actually the only reason I’ve ever had to touch my motor was due to the stupid emissions systems, welp, that problem has been permanently solved and I haven’t had to touch it since. Would you know, I make more power and even get almost twice the fuel economy that i did when it was stock. Imagine that! I don’t even blow black smoke like all the haters seem to think all of us diesel drivers do on a daily basis. But I can if I really really want to.
