At 115,000 I installed the bullet proof oil cooler and I’ve had it about 5 months and so far I love it my oil temps have stayed under 200 and before it was getting up about 240

@fireguy8466 Жыл бұрын

That’s the way to do it! Eliminating the stock oil cooler/filter setup solves 90% of the 6.0 problems. No coolant filters, no deletes. Throw on a BPD EGR cooler, water pump and FICM. Keep everything else stock…injectors and air filter. And they will run reliably without major issues. Do your maintenance!

I will say a water-methanol injection system made a 250-300 degree drop in my EGT'S. 100% worth it.

Hope You replaced the alternator. That’s the first thing we had trouble with when we started towing. The stock alternator is from a Ford Fusion. That will take out your FICM.

Total cost was around $220, with a digital external and adjustable setpoint, wire and paint to make it as fancy as any aftermarket option.

My coolant temps are always higher than my oil temps by like 15 degrees but my coolant temp never gets over 188-190. Why is that? Seems to run great, only has 60k miles

@adendickinson5076 Ай бұрын

the coolant filtration filters so slow it doesn’t really make a difference from what i noticed

@nativeoutdoors1780 2 жыл бұрын

The deltas aren't as big of a deal, it's really whether it cools down after finishing a hill, the stock parameters will only throw a code if your deltas get to 50 degrees plus, so 40 isn't great but not terrible. Just watch and make sure that the Delta lowers once it crests the hill or gets to flat ground like you said, 8 degrees is more than fine, remember that these monitors aren't always accurate, so the actual number isn't as important and what the direction the temps are going

How do you like the 4.30 gears? How's the fuel mileage? I'm torn between doing 4.10s or 4.3s

@LeesGarage 2 жыл бұрын

The 4.30’s are great for towing. I was averaging 13-14 mpg highway/empty and about 8 mpg towing on stock tires. I’m on 35’s now, and averaging 12 mpg highway. I don’t have mpg data towing yet.

@Lee's Garage Randy there is a lot of people who say the coolant mod is worthless (not effective) what do you think of an inline filter screen? Usually 60 to 100 microns.

@LeesGarage 3 жыл бұрын

Where would you be placing this inline filter screen? I’m no expert on this subject, but the way I understand the coolant filtration is, it’s a long game. No, you won’t be pulling all the contamination out every pass, but eventually you’ll capture most of it.

@nativeoutdoors1780 2 жыл бұрын

1300 to 1400 degrees is pretty hot, just remember aluminum melts at 1200 degrees so anything hotter is no go zone, it's okay to bounce off of it but I wouldn't trust sustained huts

Did those Riffraff boots stop the oil from leaking out at high boost like you mentioned. I have an 05’ F350 and every time we tow our RV I have to clean oil from the underside of my hood.

@LeesGarage 3 жыл бұрын

In my case the boots seemed to be seeping more than spraying. I haven’t noticed any oil on the outside of the boots since. If the oil is spraying you probably have a pretty bad boost leak (would possibly be fixed by boots) and possible a need for a turbo rebuild.

that coolant filter isn't stopping contaminants before the oil cooler, it's stopping them after they pass through the cooler...meaning it is pretty much worthless. The delta is also 15 degrees not 10.

@j.r.w7636 3 жыл бұрын

The coolant only cycles one time?

@richfarfugnuven6308 3 жыл бұрын

I wish I could explain something so basic to you. You are cleaning all of the contamination out over time. Jesus, you don't understand basic filtration do you? By this reasoning I should run an oil filter the first 25 miles when I change my oil, then remove it...

The #1 MOD is BUY A 7.3

@georgesrisomsak9650 Жыл бұрын

I have one. Not as good for towing heavy. Not even close. I have well over $10k in aftermarket performance mods. My unstuded 6.0 will absolutely walk circles around it with a simple tune and supporting mods. I paid $13k for the 7.3, and $8k for my 6.0. I got way better value for my $ with the 6.0, by far. Not an average specimen however, nd not everyone's experience. I got lucky and landed a very clean and well kept ccsb king ranch. I can tell ya, I won't be pissing away $ building the 7.3 anymore. She's on backup duty now, and that's it. Looks great at my house though! 😂
