Just picked up a 99 250 and valve cover a mechanic wrote Glow plug broken in #3 ... going in tomorrow to figure it out. Never worked on a 7.3 before so I appreciate the video. I bought it cheap as a no start issue and learning a lot on these videos. Thanks
My truck does that long grank no start but will fire up after cranking a bit. If i shut it off and try to start it again it will fire right up. If I wait about 10 minutes, it's back to the long crank. Could this be the injection having bad o rings.Its a 2002 F350 with 156000 miles. Great video
How long should it take to get the air out. I just did my injectors and every now and then the truck looses power completely then kicks back on. I’m assuming that means it is hitting an air pocket. Is that normal. And she still rolling white smoke. Drove it roughly 15 miles since the swap.
I am just a little bit halfway through video. Thank you! I have a couple of questions. When you pulled the first injector, you could hear the oil pouring into this cylinder. You didn't talk about the steps. Admit to be done to help, avoid that happening and hydro locking After you put it back together because of all the oil in the cylinder and the possibility of bending a connecting rod When you try to start it. Did you guys go over these steps, and I missed it or something? I've never done these myself yet, but I have to do them on my truck asap and I am trying to learn as much as I can beforehand. Also, after he Uberated the injectors, he pulled the tip of them off, and you said nozzles off. What was that, if I may ask? Nozzles, and Nozzles off?
@@bunchsdieselperformance1255 thanks and yeah your right, however and to my understanding you can do ? Before you pull your injectors to avoid any oil running into the cylinders, are you aware of what steps those may be? Again though GREAT video and really appreciate what your doing with them all very much.
@@MikeConner.akaRadio I’m sure you could vacuum some of it out but eaither way some oil is going to go into the cylinder so regardless you’ll have to blow the oil out the glow plug holes.
@@bunchsdieselperformance1255 understand and thank you again. By the way, that is a great idea to put the valve cover back on with a couple of bolts, And then crank the engine over to blow the oil out. All the other information that I have read. And seen just as to crank the engine over and it blows oil all over everything...
There are 2 oil plugs in the head above the injectors that are part of the oil rail that you can pull and let most of the oil drain. But unfortunately, you will not get it all and will still have some that goes into cylinder once you pull the injectors.
one key step you forgot to tell and show was make sure you clean out all the extra oil possible before putting the injector back in, (edited) the other way you did it via the glow plug hole is fine too

Can you please post a link to those wire brushes? Those look perfect to clean up the cups before installing the injectors. Thanks!

50 - 100 miles of driving it like you hate it.
Beau seems like a good guy, quiet as ever though 😅, hard worker as well.
By the way what Turbo is that? Its sure beautiful!!

Keep watching those questions are answered

Doing a set on mine this week
Hellll yeahh good video
What about the oil that possibly drained on top of the cylinder I use a vacume and a straw or u can turn the motor over by hand
Keep
Watching
May have missed it, but what is the torque value for the glow plugs?
Just snug
Am I just ignorant or did I miss the step of putting glow plugs back in?
one key step you forgot to tell and show was make sure you clean out all the extra oil possible before putting the injector back in, (edited) the other way you did it via the glow plug hole is fine too
Do that by blowing it out the glow plug hole should be in the video I believe
If the copper wash is left when you pulled the injectors what do you use to remove it
Pick
What would it cost to have your shop do this?
Several variables to consider give us a call tomorrow 4233072171
U forgot to empty oil rail
Why would you do that
Its not from the government its from the tax payer its an election year thats y there givimg ot out
