Thank you Bill for another informative video on fixing powerstrokes RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! The Hawaii 5-O is still running awesome with NO LEAKS since the work you did to the truck back in 2015. Video can be viewed at Hawaii 5-O on Powerstroke Specialties Videos.
Great info and content guys. Just had the oil cooler replaced in my 7.3 couple months ago, and the underside was a sticky oily mess. I spent a few hours with Purple power, steam, and brake kleen on everything before I dropped it off to them. Hats off to you guys as always for this work.
I agree to the right rear pads and caliper..just did mine and that side had all the wear and problems. 2002 F350 4x4 200,000 + going strong ..Oregon truck ( but now in Mass. ) no rust at all anywhere ...you have helped me maintain this Beast and Knowledge is everything..Thank You Fellas
12:49> “…that right there will never rust!” 😳🤣 Yeah, reminds me of basically EVERYTHING on the undercarriage of my 1955 Buick Super with Dynaflow trans… been said that for an older Buick, if no leaks, it’s out of fluid! Now, on the other-hand, my 2000 F-250 PS w/7.3 looks even worse then this one in video; has nearly 400K miles on it tho so, gunna be expected to have some seepage & yes, I fully agree about the Crankcase Ventilation system being best left alone (stock) for turbo low pressure (vacuum) side, to assist in evacuating it. I really oughta get my truck over to one of the big-rig cleaning bays around my area for an acid wash of underside. I haven’t jumped on getting all that crud cleaned off sooner only because it hasn’t leaked fast enough to even show on dipstick; just a slow migration of seepage over time from maybe several OLD seals.. actually kind of afraid of dislodging all of that caked on crud; may cause other parts to loose grip!! 🤪
Gray death is what we call it. 2001 f2shity 7.tree got over 720 thousand miles...not a leak to be found...still stroking and purrs like a kitten 😸... been driving her for 22 years now
Impressive! I’ve got 517k on mine, the spots that are leaking are the seals around the oil cooler and transmission case where the pan gasket is. I’m not the original owner and the previous one must have took an impact to that delicate trans case when changing the filter or something. Runs great
So all that oil from the ccv that combines with the soot from the egr and plugs up Intake is good for that engine? I've opened one up it is a half inch thick, necking down air flow. Not to mention the oil that attacks the rubber hose that splits open on intercooler.
What’s the cost to fix the bed plate leak? Following Bill’s advice I’m going to look at a 06’ 6.0 F-250 about four hours away and the owner said it has a leak by the bell housing but was told by a mechanic it’s residual leaking and nothing to worry about.
Diesel trucks have come a long way since the 7.3L that had not much to it to make it run. I would go crazy with all the new tech they need to keep the new diesel engines going right.
8k to bulletproof is NOT that bad. and after its properly fixed up, it lasts a long while. i bought a 2004 6.0 at 221k and hadda get injectors,glowplugs+harness,fuel pump at 236k and it costed ~$7k but she is sittin in my driveway now with only slight oil leak (similar to this video) and at 302k miles and more to go!
You are the true ford mechanic and the only person that I would truly trust to fix any diesel truck other than myself.

Hi Tim I am glad all is well and she is serving you as planned.

Thanks Bill & Mikey.
Your exactly correct about the ccv venting craziness
The body looks nice and dry.Cali you had brought that up in one of your other videos.
San Diego did a CCV mod? Wow!
Gray death!! Only sealant to use
Leaks on these can be maddening
Our 2016 is bone dry under it.
Our 2006, as we jokingly say, will NEVER rust! - Nice protective coat all over the underside.
looks like fluid film on it!!! Looks like the underneath of my truck
You gotta put a little dab of sealer on that hp oil pump , right Mikey ??

Just curious on a 6.0 king ranch dually how much are we looking at $$ for my truck started little oil
So all that oil from the ccv that combines with the soot from the egr and plugs up Intake is good for that engine? I've opened one up it is a half inch thick, necking down air flow. Not to mention the oil that attacks the rubber hose that splits open on intercooler.
Now a days its cheaper to keeper!
This video looks expensive!!

Run don't walk.
What year of truck and model of truck that this leak is on And how many miles is on this truck
I've got a 2002 F250 Super Duty 4x4. With a 7.3 powerstroke. Do you work on 7.3 powerstroke?
I hope mikey gets paid for all the time he spends on this vids

Yeah with the 7.3 the only thing you will have to do with it other than normal maintenance is after about 300k the drivers seat will need recovering!
what kind of cost are we looking for a inspection like this ?
Sir may I have another!
Too bad I'm stuck with a 6.0 I can't give away! Gets 7mpg, and all the shops want 8k+ to 'bulletproof'.
8k to bulletproof is NOT that bad. and after its properly fixed up, it lasts a long while. i bought a 2004 6.0 at 221k and hadda get injectors,glowplugs+harness,fuel pump at 236k and it costed ~$7k but she is sittin in my driveway now with only slight oil leak (similar to this video) and at 302k miles and more to go!
Komufornia.
How do I send you a picture??
Is a 6.0 diesel good engine?
I've got a 6.0 2005 F350 dually, mechanics box body on the back for sale.
No one in Oregon wants it.
What year and Engine size?
the commies wont let you run theses no more LMAO love bill!!!!
