My uncle bought his 7.3 brand new in 2002. He’s had it ever since and it’s been babied and very well taken care of. He is selling it to upgrade to a fancy new one and I couldn’t be happier that he said he’d make sure I get to buy it off him. This thing is pristine! Only 75k miles, lariat trim, crew cab, and already leveled with 35’s! It’ll be mine here in a couple months and I am so stoked!
@@ProjectTimeGarage Dumb IT question alert: I don't have a data package with my cellular phone provider, only talk and text on my Android device, can I download and run Torque or Forscan strictly off my homes wifi in my driveway to scan engine issues on my 02 Nissan Frontier? Thks.
Awesome! Another person in the club!! Glad to have ya. You say it had a leveling kit.. I also did one but it sent the front of the truck higher than the back(opposite rake). Anyways, didn’t like it, called SD springs and they sent me the heaviest dutiest springs I could get. Now the truck looks great and hawls even better. Just thought I’d share
Thank you brother I'm an old dog and I appreciate people like you more than you know I've been in the field for a long time but I have been disabled for 10 years. Maybe I can get my truck running again correct way now.

FORScan is 7 bucks for the main but so worth it! I’ve downloaded it from your other videos it was invaluable to figuring out my excursion with a 7.3! Very nice video going through gauges and whatnot!
@@ProjectTimeGarage man I installed a new hpop, icp, ipr and the truck ran great but now it surges at idle 🤦🏻♂️also icp on FORScan saying 3000 psi at idle goes to 1700-2800 when driving …

This is a great introduction, I'm also a tech guy by trade and just popped my diesel cherry with a high miles '02 F-250 7.3. It runs great so luckily I don't have to diagnose anything engine/drivetrain right now, but I'm sure in the future I'll need to and these tools will be indispensable. In the mean time I can set up cool gauges on the Android head unit I'm putting in!
Man, I've bought about 5 now from Amazon and I cannot seem to find one that works like that one. I'll for sure update you guys if I find one that does work.
Thanks very helpful video, wait a minute is that a highboy there in the background at almost the end of the video??? I think we need some footage of her!
Great video. I would add that OBD2 extension cables are available so your scanner isn't hanging down into the foot well. After kicking my scanners a few times I got a 90 degree cable that I ran behind stuff to the glove box where my scanner dongle is out of the way but easy to get to. Different lengths and orientations cables can be had inexpensively...
@@ProjectTimeGarage Be sure to check the orientation of your OBD2 port. Some are backwards to others. You can get cables that go left or right, depending on your port (look at pictures, all that). They'll still work but you'll have to loop the cable 180 degrees.
Can you see cylinder, power graphs? How each cylinder is running even or not. And I need a cheap scanner I can turn ipr valve on and off to do air test
You're testing my patients!! I can tell your information is invaluable, I just wish you made a separate video for Torque and another for Forscan. Or at least marked the video for each. I'm waiting patiently for forscan, but naturally you're doing Torque first. I'm going nuts!! I need Forscan. Non the less, thanks for your work.
Yeah, I understand, but I really made the video to show how to get them installed and talking to the truck since I've had so many questions in the past. No worries, I will make a more in-depth video on each of them, though.

@@ProjectTimeGarage LOL, tried a number of times to add params to dashboard and couldn't figure out how to do it. Then, working outdoors on sunny days, _I didn't see there were check boxes in front of each param (!)_
I would strongly advice getting (FORscan) I got my OBD2 reader and in a rough 30mins found the problem with my truck. for me it was a $37 investment over a $2000+ Scan pc/Program Thank You #ProjectTimeGarage!
What if you have a tuner plugged in? Can you unplug your tuner and plug in the ODB adapter to get specific parameters and then plug your tuner back in after you're done using it?
I know this clip is a bit old but the information is great, currently I cannot find the same Bluetooth device. What you guys recommend Bluetooth device to pirchase? I ordered one and it won’t work with FORScan.
Thank you for creating this video. The information/knowledge you have passed on is extremely helpful. I was successful installing and running Torquepro, great! FORscan not so fortunate. Have downloaded the correct file but when I attempt an initiation, by selecting FORscan icon, I receive this error "Unable to initialize application". I have been to FS forums, there are posts concerning this error but no solution?? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy your channel. Thank you.
Thanks, I've actually ran into that same error message on other apps not related to ForScan. Usually it's an issue on the device itself. Most likely the version of Android.
I have one linked in the video description, but Amazon is out of them for a while now. I've tried about a dozen others and cannot find another that works like the one I used in the video.
Ive had my 6.0 for 12 years and it just rolled over to 160K. Im replacing the injectors, oil cooler, IPR, ICP, and what ever else I find that may need it. I figure its time to start monitoring it. Im using torque pro and forescan on my indash hopefully.@@ProjectTimeGarage
Great video. Thank you. The plug in bafx obdII reader you recommended is unavailable on Amazon and every other place I found. Can you tell me where to buy it? If not do you have a second choice?
Hello. Thanks for making so many informational videos. They really help. The link you put for the obd2 reader is currently unavailable and is android only. I already bought one and it didn’t pair to FORScan. Is there possibly a way you can put a link in here for a currently available port for iOS. Thanks!
So far, I've bought about 7 other OBD2 readers and none of them work. I'm still looking, so stay tuned and I'll let everyone know when I've found another.
Is there a different obd2 interface that you know will work with the for scan app? The one that you are using is no longer available. I need to do a buzz test on my 7.3
Your videos are excellent I tried finding the OBD2 reader and the link says it's no longer available any suggestions I have a 2000 F250 7.3 powerstroke I've already downloaded Torque Pro and forscan I need to find an OBD2 Wireless reader that's not too expensive
What's the thing next to the obd2 port? I bought a f350 recently and I have no idea. Mines black with the same moving thing like I said I have no idea for my v10
Can you reset the engine light with this? Please let me know. Have a question. My engine light is blinking real slow. Can you help me with that? Give me some ideas
2003 7.3 van. It runs okay but I'm getting constant engine check light, codes P1280 ( injector control pressure sensor circuit low) and P1211 ( injector control pressure higher/lower than desired). I suspect leaking around one of the injectors. Is there a way I can use the scan tools to find out which injector is leaking?
No, sure don't. I also have a Duramax truck that I use Torque Pro on. It does most of the same monitoring that ForScan will do. It's just missing the bi-directional testing.
amazon is out of the obd scanner you recommended and could it being sold anywhere else. do you have another recommendation of a obd scanner i can buy ?. there are so many different kinds and im not sure which will work with my andriod phone and forscan
I had a quick question for you and everyone else who would chime in.... The OBDII you specified on your link thru Amazon. Show unavailable or not sold anymore... Is there another OBDII you would recommend or use?
So dumb question but will any Bluetooth obd2 port with with theses apps? I got a 97 7.3 that I have a check engine light on for and kinda runs rough so trying to figure out what’s going on with it
Most of the ELM327 OBD2 adapters *should* work, but I've found more that a few that don't. Amazon is out of the one I recommend, so I'm trying to find one that works.
Am I able to adjust the fuel pressure on my 2006 6.0 on the forscan without needing to get bigger injectors because people love riding on my tail thro town in Aiken sc
No, I don't believe ForScan will let you change pressure. The "blue spring" kit will increase pressure, but without oversized injectors, or a tune, you probably won't be able to increase fuel.
@@ProjectTimeGarage yea I got the blue spring the truck is still pretty stock except for exhaust it has a 5inch straight pipe on it still has the egr and still has the stock air intake
At the time of making this video it was .16 - a LOT of time has gone by now. Not sure about your specific device, but my current tablet is a Samsung with current Android and it's working on that one.

Does anyone know which PID you select for oil pressure in FORSan lite for the high speed oil pump on a 6.0?
FORScan should automatically have the HPOP PID in it for the 6.0. I checked with mine and it works right out of the box.
My 2000 7.3 won’t pass smog n no check engine light on ?
When I put a scanner on it, it shuts off?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Mine does that too with some of the OBD2 readers. The BAFX one is the only one I've found that works 100%
@@ProjectTimeGarage Are you referring to the WiFi Bluetooth ones? Any help is greatly appreciated.
So dumb question but will any Bluetooth obd2 port with with theses apps? I got a 97 7.3 that I have a check engine light on for and kinda runs rough so trying to figure out what’s going on with it
Most of the ELM327 OBD2 adapters *should* work, but I've found more that a few that don't. Amazon is out of the one I recommend, so I'm trying to find one that works.
Am I able to adjust the fuel pressure on my 2006 6.0 on the forscan without needing to get bigger injectors because people love riding on my tail thro town in Aiken sc
No, I don't believe ForScan will let you change pressure. The "blue spring" kit will increase pressure, but without oversized injectors, or a tune, you probably won't be able to increase fuel.
@@ProjectTimeGarage yea I got the blue spring the truck is still pretty stock except for exhaust it has a 5inch straight pipe on it still has the egr and still has the stock air intake
Can't load Forscan. Any idea's?
Man, all phones are different. But I do hear that same thing a lot. Most of the time it's the phone not allowing unsigned apps to load.
I loaded Torque Pro.
Forwcan is a .22 not .16 now and it wont run on my samsung. Any advice?
At the time of making this video it was .16 - a LOT of time has gone by now. Not sure about your specific device, but my current tablet is a Samsung with current Android and it's working on that one.
So to download Torque Pro onto my laptop Ill need an Android Emulator Platform? Which is safe?
The official Android Studio Emulator is probably the best known, plus it's directly from Android.

What tablet and tablet mount do you have on your 6.0? I have a 2006 6.0 and I would like to do the same thing on it. Great video, much appreciated.
It's a cheap samsung galaxy with a super-ghetto mount stuffed in the dash. Thanks for watching!
@@ProjectTimeGarage Thanks for this. I'm actually watching some goofy guy on ProjectTimeTech (hee hee hee). I'm also techie/telecom guy. Which model of Samsung galaxy? Thanks for all the great stuff....
@@stampeder1686 Ah, fellow nerd then. Thanks for watching! The tablet is a Galaxy Tab A4
@@ProjectTimeGarage Keep the great videos coming. Got my 6.0l powerstroke torn apart right now due to blown EGR cooler, Oil cooler and bad turbo unison ring. Other than that is a boring day.....Thanks again...
I downloaded Forscan but keeps saying Unable to Initialize application
What about sending information if it doesn't run
You will still get info with the key on and engine off
Hi mate, I just keep getting a message saying (can not connect to OBD interface), any ideas. It is connected to the phone on Bluetooth but nothing works.
It may not be talking to the ECU. That's usually an issue with the OBD plug, or the wiring to the ECU.
@@ProjectTimeGarage Ok thanks.
I’m not able to get the torque pro on iPhone
Saying unable to initialize application
Android issue. Been there.
I just downloaded the Forscan app but it said unable to initialize application. Any idea on how to fix this issue?

@@ProjectTimeGarage I ended up downloading and installing the independent version. I had to pay 7.49 but it worked perfectly.
I'm having trouble finding the links. I'm fairly new at UA-cam.
Unfortunately the scanner is no longer available and I can't seem to find another one that works.
