Great video 👍 question? You mentioned the hose was 15mm but for a Px2 others have said it’s 16mm is that correct?

Nothing but respect for this guy! Absolutely amazing at how much info I’ve gotten just by watching your videos. Not even a Haynes manual could help as much as you did! Legend mate! 👍

Thanks for taking the time and making the considerable effort to produce this video which is of great interest and relevance to us PX Ranger owners.

Thankyou for taking the time and effort to make this great video. Excellent job clear and concise!

You are an absolute legend! I put blanking plates in but couldn't find anything on the cooler line bypass. All your px1 videos have services me endlessly. Thanks heaps mate. Keep em coming!

Loving all your videos mate, super handy, no BS or padding just the good stuff, invaluable and big thumbs up 👍💪😇

Thanks for this video. Excellent service to all PX owners.

Thank you been looking for a video like this for ages. With the EGR to Exhaust manifold blanking plate, I found another guy who slotted the two bottom holes on the plate. Then you only have to completely remove the top centre bolt and only back off the two lower bolts, as you did with the blanking plate at the EGR valve body. Thank you again, job well done.

Awesome video thanks. Straight to the point and all the right information. Much appreciated.

finally , I thank God I've found your video regarding ford ranger T6... help me a lot for DIY save me a lot of money that i cannot afford if I let the dealer or CASA do it... hope that you have to do more video regarding ford ranger...

Best video on the process ever dude, awesome job..

Cannot thank you enough for this video, detailed but easy to follow

Great video, 👍 the water line bypass number 1 looks the best. Factory. You can also just turn off the EGR valve In the software and it never opens to stop soot build up. I also read in the ranger Px3 the EGR acts as a pressure relief valve so it opens to relieve boost but stays closed so exhaust gas doesn't get sucked through when light throttle cruising.

I wish I watched this video before I had taken my ranger to a mechanic and being charged $3500 to change it and a radiator. Awesome video thanks.

Very helpful video, excellent 👏 My weekend project 😎

Very good thank you. Great to see a combination of motor on the flow and motor in the car 👍

Love this guys videos. Very informative. 😊

Considering taking this fellas advice guys. My ranger blew a hole in the engine block, mechanic believes the cooler caused this. This was a 2.2L and now sitting in my backyard because it's hard to justify spending almost 10k to fix it. Oh well..new hilux is going good

Gracias por tu video, yo hice el by pasa directamente desde la salida de la manguera al frente del motor directo al calefactor, lo que sucedió es que se puede circular a una velocidad moderada pero por encima de los 130 km/h el motor se calienta supongo que por la falta de enfriamiento de los gases, igual fue una solución acertada y sirvió muchísimo, para seguir viajando 😉

Thanks for the awesome explanation ✌️

Great video already bypass coolant hose directly to engine leaving egr valve and egr cooler after my px1 2013 dump coolant to exhaust side and leaving coolant ridiculously low after long run after off-roading and nearly make me stranded.. and also already blank egr valve also after freshly rebuilt top after clogged with carbon at intake site

Very informative he knows all the arteries of the engine coolant system any overheating issues of the vehicle solutions is available in this video

you are so good.thanks for your video.it help a lot.its very clear.subscriber here from phillipines.❤️❤️❤️❤️

Having worked on ships it is vitaly important to maintain your coolant. If you're using town water or bore water or not changing the coolant regularly you will get corrosion in the water jacket. The exhaust gas won't corrode, the coolant does, if the coolant is maintained these problems shouldn't occur but no-one changes their coolant regularly. The engine is made up of dissimilar metals that react with each other when the coolant gets tired and starts to becomes an electrolyte. Cracks may occur from expanding and contracting but corrosion won't if you look after your coolant.

This dude is A Legend🎉🏆🏆🏆

Big thanks to you very helpful...

Great information thank you.😀

thanks, for share your experience service of ford ranger

Cheers mate, awesome vid and I love your work.

Interesting.. i bought a ranger and was Unaware that previous owner done this but made a hash of it. Was getting exhaust fumes in cabin and eventually found smoke puffing from the area he tried to bypass. Watching this its obvious the previous owner tried to do a bypass without removing engine and therefore didn't do it properly. Had ford renistate egr so all good now.. Thanks for sharing

Your a legend mate

Thanks for posting mate cheers. Just did this to my 2014 3.2L Ranger. Had driven it a long way and noticed I was topping up coolant all the time. Suspected an issue with the EGR cooler. Eventually it was going through more coolant than I could put it, litres at a time. Must have all been going out the exhaust. Also eventually noticed exhaust gases coming out the coolant tank and odours. So decided to do my own bypass before the engine overheated potentially causing serious damage, if that hasn’t occurred already. Have done the coolant line bypass, haven’t done the exhaust yet. It is now not loosing any coolant for the first time in a long time. Temp gauge is stable. So must have been the EGR cooler at fault. Very disappointed with Ford for these rubbish parts. Will be taking it in to the shop ASAP. Thanks for the tip mate cheers.

Thanks for the video dude its appreciated God bless ya

Muito bom mesmo! Parabéns!

thanks for sharing this good advice

This is awsome in theory, wish I had this before I did all this in situ in the car. Beware the egr valve the little tabs of the factory gasket are sharper then shark teeth, also if u think the exhaust blank is going in like shown then your dreaming. The only way to really accomplish all this with a full intake clean. Get the intake manifold out to get the best access to the back of the head. U can fully remove the egr cooler and fit the blank with a piece of stiff wire inserted through the top hole of the exhaust manifold, slide the top hole of the blank on and then slide top hole of the egr cooler on and then pull the whole lot back towards the Manifold. In sert the 2 bottom bolts to secure then reef the wire out for the top bolt. Then put all the intake gear back on. Make sure u have some small 10mm 3/8th tube sockets with universals to get at the ex manifold bolts in/out. These will come in handy throughout the intake removal as well. Also tie the bonnet up so it sits straight or 90deg as well, allows heaps of room. Ps hose from auto parts supplier in Australia is almost perfect factory replacement for bypass calibre ch1325c.

Great video. Hope you can make video about 2.0.💗💗💗

Thank u Im saving this video

Great vid, especially being able to see all of the bolts without the engine being in the engine bay. Got a question for you, did you need to drill a hole in the smallet plate to prevent an engine warning light? Thanks again.

Absolutely great video, thank you. I have a 2019 Ranger. If I blank off the EGR valve do I have to reprogram the vehicle computer ?

Thanks ,subscribed .

This afternoon I followed these instructions to block the exhaust side but couldn't create a gap between the exhaust manifold and the cooler until I discovered an exhaust bracket underneath

Great 👌😊 advice

Thanks

This is brilliant 5***** cheers

L/H side blanking plate, 15 mins to do a manual in place but need bent spanners etc for a auto because the dipstick tube blocks access to the top bolt, R/H side takes a while as well but well worth it.

Just done this, and glow plugs, with carbon build up in intake, and my heater core pipes are 19mm.

Great video. Does it bring up the engine check light when you blank off the egr valve?

Thanks for sharing this task. Hopefully won’t have to do the bypass this summer trip. 👌👍🇦🇺🍺

I would use the OEM hose clamp on the new hose. These clamps self tighten as the new hose shrinks (and it will shrink) unlike a worm style clamp which will require tightening down the track.

Hi Mate. Great video. Any check engine lights for EGR after?? You know ranger are famous for those

Awesome video thanks for taking the time to produce it. What are the pro’s and con’s of blanking it off😊

If u blank the cooler and bypass the water you must blank both sides otherwise if the cooler has a leak into exhaust system it can cause exhaust gas to escape out the removed cooler hoses that can result in a fire 🔥 bang goes your car.

Hi. Cool video. Once you've removed the whole egr cooler can you just leave it off? And cover the exhaust end with a plate?.. And you'd obviously have to connect the hoses up.

Can the EGR blanking plates be used on the PX3 ranger? And after fitting blanking plate does it cause any turbo surge/turbo flutter ?

Your vid was interesting I bypassed my egr a couple of years ago one hose on the bottom of the cooler goes to the trans cooler i believe may be wrong but I have mine circulating thru that also the egr seems to be almost impossible to replace with engine in the vehicle. Has anyone done one in vehicle

Thank you for this video! When you by pass to the 2nd position is it because coolant can leak through the actual valve itself?

Just wondering, if you use a piece of hose to bypass the coolant, like you show in the start of the video, does that now mean that the now hot exhaust will be going straight into the intake? Hence the need for the block off plates? How long can you drive it without the plates fitted? Also, how can you tell if an EGR is dud when buying a Ford PX? I'm flying to Perth to buy, and driving back to VIC, 3500km. Ive just watched 1 video showing the heater hose pulled off the firewall, runs the car, and shows the coolant bubbling. He said this is the exhaust gas mixing with coolant. Correct or no? Thanks. Your videos are really informative :)

I think you'll find that bypassing the EGR cooler and exhaust flow will throw up a check engine light. This is what happens on the older VW TDI engines but getting a remap sorts out the engine management system and everything is fine again.

if you use a dayco hose part no dmh1672 it fits on the heater core to the EGR valve .there is EGR delete from chip tuning which turns it off completely except for wastegate and no codes . cheq it out then you can leave the dead cooler ware it is and no blanking plates

Just a question. If you bypass the egr cooler, would it still be worth blanking the egr?

Dp you recommend the EGR blanking?

Hello,great video thank you. 2 questions please. Q.Can this process be made to a TRANSIT 2013 2.2 RWD . I believe they have the same engine. Q. After bypassing the EGR COOLER and blanking the EGR COOLER like you did, do i have to make a remap to avoid limp mode or they will be no error codes anymore? Thank you!

If I blank of the egr cooler on the egr valve side only that means the cooler will still have hot exhaust gas in it will this be problem when I bypass the coolant as you've done in the video.

Is the blow off valve an issue in blanking the EGR for the PX1?

Can you add additional oil cooler to cool the engine?

I’ll forward this video to the EPA. Cheers.

Can you add an additional oil cooler to compensate for eliminating EGR Cooler?

I was just wondering if you may have forgotten to put the video on to remove the fuel filter and surrounding

If you use a EGR delete cable for the PX2 and use the coolant hose bypass do you still need to use blanking plates?

I have a question, can I isolate only the EGR heat exchanger without isolating the path of the gases? Wouldn't that cause any issues?

Awesome vids you make bro👍

Hi is there a video for the insignia whisper engine for EGR blank and removal

Hi, can you share some light on how do I EGR blank the Next Gen Ranger V6 diesel? Same process?

So what’s better plumbing into egr motor or bypassing it completely when I blanking both sides?

Hi by blanking the EGR doesn’t this throw up an error code when running? Due to the ecu not sensing flow? Did you get your ECU remapped to stop the check engine light Thanks

Great video, thanks for taking the time. One issue, I’ve just had at look into my px2 engine bay, and it looks like that coolant pipe from the heater core goes round and down past the egr to some box attached to the transmission. Or at least appears to. Any ideas?

Does it matter what side you block off ? Or do you really need to do both ?

When i put my foot to the floor my car blows a little white smoke, what could be the issue you reckon? cheers 🤙🏽

very nice video thanks, especially you have a spare engine to show which is great, but why need 2 blanking plate?

When bypassing it and the hoses that are left open do you have to plug them cause mines not

Will this bypass causel effect the engine for long-term usage?

Just asking dose the motor really need the EGR cooler emplace and unblocked or can i leave it fully blocked off.

Hey mate I was just wondering if you need gaskets with the blanking plates or not?

Is it any harder to do if it is still in the vehicle? Not sure if you mentioned that. 🙂

Seems to be a big price difference between genuine and aftermarket EGR cooler prices... is the aftermarket option risky?

Great video. A question, whats the recomended tickness of the exhaust plate?, if the plate is too thick can cause troubles with the exhast manifold not being able to rest against the engine block?

Can I bypass the ERC cooler and not do blanking? Why I am asking this is it's in a tough spot. I just want to see how much I need to do from the 2 blanking and bypassing.

Fit a catch can too

What is the benefit of blanking it off ? And do I damage the engine by doing it ?

great video mate , what are your thoughts on bypassing the engine oil cooler of coolant ? ive heard these things can be another time bomb waiting to fail inside and release coolant into the engine oil ?

thanks for uploading this video! One question, if I do the bypass and then override the egr from the ecu, will I have heating problems by not blocking the cooler inlets? I've heard that you can even burn the truck 😅

Great video thanks, are there any long term issues with a cooler bypass?

Thanks 9:37

Is this temporary bypass of the cooler or permanent? Does one need a Egr cooler in the 3.2 at all?? Mine is acting up now and 1200 to refit new cooler.

Still a great video but just went to do the job but have one minor comment. The water flow is from the engine to the EGR then to the Firewall (internal car heating system). I disconnected at the fire wall only and started the motor and the cooling flows can out of the hose not the firewall. 👍

Hello , great video . Can you just bypass the cooler only and not blank off the EGR. Thanks

mate I just got new 2021 3.2 ranger, are saying u I can just blank the one side if I want to ,preferably the easy side ,is there anything else I need to do ? the video is next level mate🔥

Hi thanks for the video I’m about to do this on my ranger. I was wondering if I need to blank of both side? I thought that blanking the exhaust side would be enough

Ive blanked mine should i do the bypass also?
