Watching my dad struggling to put this belt on, I walked this video out to him he watched the whole thing handed me my phone and acted like it didn't help lol guarantee he will get the thing on now. Thanks
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯💯💯💯
help him nig
Music is annoying. How do you do it without the removal of all the other parts
.....by listening to music
"it's sparkling!" 🤣 That had me dying dude, it's the little things that can make your day!
Man, I doubt you even see this.
Thank you for making this video and doing a step by step tutorial. Cat got hung in my fan and belt this morning. Ripped my belt all to pieces. I got it going thanks to you.
I see everything, meooow
@PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod, This video was a game changer in the way the routing of the belt goes. The key like you said is how you start it on the tensioner pulley, then from there its just working it around all the others and watching alignment. Thanks for another great video and taking the time to teach.
Wish others felt the same way
Aaron makes this look easy because he’s a professional! This is a beast of a job especially for one person. I’m 12+ hours into this and the truck continues to whoop my a**. This is a difficult frustrating repair. Best of luck, Gear Heads
I figured out it was the after-market pulley. The diameter was larger than OEM. Once I put the factory pulley on, the belt was installed in less than 30 minutes.
I get to do one tomorrow. A/C compressor pulley/clutch locked up. Great video as always 👍🏻
great video after watching this I had no issue putting belt back on. Was a super bonus not having to rip half the truck apart to do it. thanks
Thanks pal!
I just want to say thank you for this video! I just attempted this on my wife’s 2012 and thanks to you it went quick and easy! Thanks for putting this out! I appreciate it
Hey, thanks for comin' thru & keepin' it real
Holy $h!t. That is ridiculous. I would have never been able to figure this out. Thank you for doing this video!
My pleasure thanks for watchin!!
nicee
Thanks FOMOCO for making a drive belt such a task to change. Had a 1996 LeSabare that routed the belt around a motor mount. 😅
God bless people with the patience to do this!
Thanks man, very helpful video! Keep on keeping on!
Thanks for stoppin by & being positive!!
Great video
Ah I was hoping to see how that connector for the fan came apart. Just looked at my belt and figured I better come to your channel and see how that was done. I guess when I loosen the belt I will see how it comes apart. Atleast I know it has to disconnect and the bracket has to come out. 👍👍
Well Bro You doin' it and doin' it well! Great job.
Thanks budddddyyy
Even with the upper fan shroud out, this job was a F'in bastard on my single HD alternator '11. To top things off, I couldn't find the proper belt routing anywhere. After about an hour and scraping my forearms all to sh*t, I got it figured out. Glad I did the bridge, both idlers, the belt and tensioner all at the same time. That little electrical connector for the fan also cost me about 20mins. WOULD NOT come apart.
Glad I'll never have to do it again on this truck...
Have a good night G,
-Adrenacyde
Great video thank-you
Yup we can do it, but do you want to, NO.. Lol. Great Video as always, Thank you.
What impresses me is you working with one hand while holding the camera with the other. Good job I enjoy watching yer videos.
Amen god bless
This video was great I was very confused however be carful y’all if you have a duel v sided belt for the early 2011 6.7s the routing around the Idler and alternator pullys are different and failing to realize this completely chewed up my belt.. GREAT VIDEO! Just an fyi if your belt is duel sided
You are a serious ninja. You Kung fu grip must be quite powerful.
🤣😭🤣😭🤣💯💯💯
great vid.. thank you
Thank u
This vid has been very helpful. Appreciate ya. Can you tell me this, though…is that last pulley a bear to get on? I measured the belts and they were the same but I feel like I’ve got it around all but the last one but I feel like it’ll be impossible to get it around that last one. Or…that tensioner must have a lot of release i guess? Haven’t put a big enough bar on it to give it a good pull…
Do you recommend doing the idler and tensioner as well?
Thank you
This video is perfect!!! Did mine in about a hour after watching this. Thx bud
Hell yea Adam!
Sparkly 😂
Love the channel good job can you say where you work id bring mine into your shop thanks very informational.
MOTORCITY BABY
bout to do the one on my 2011, ac compressor clutch grenade at 200k. Mine has ribs on both sides though.
Ok
My 2011 6.7 has double sided belt and I can not get it on. looks like it is to short. Why is yours 1 sided ribs??? Thank you
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
Thanks for taking time out of your Friday night to stop by!!
Thank you for the video. I was going to change the belt and a tensioner because of a squeal at about a 1000 rpms and acceleration then stops. In reading your replies below it seems as though the sound mainly coming from the old belt rather than a tensioner or idler? I know that all situations are different but not wanting to buy and install parts for the heck of it. Can you explain a little more on trouble shooting the noise belt verses tensioner or idlers (2014). Thank you
You can email me
Good time to inspect pulleys for damage. I’ve seen rock nicks in pulleys destroy brand new belts.
Boy and I thought replacing the belts on my 6.4 was a pain in the ass. This looks like it takes the cake. Can the fan shroud come out on a 6.7 like on the 6.4? So you can at least feed the belt through the fan making it a bit easier to reach through with the bear paws?
No need to take shroud out. Way easier than 6.4 omg....by far. Shell loop right around fer ya now that uve watched meee!
So after watching this I have tried several more times to get the belt on with no avail. I have the same “part” per ford parts the match what your using in the video but I don’t have nearly as much play as is in this video. Could use a tip or do I need a different belt. I have a 2012 350 super duty single alt. Ran the belt the “exact” same way but when trying to to pull belt over the second water pump the belt is located below the middle of the pulley and will not attempt to flex enough to go over.
Sorry buddy, I don't know what else ta tell ya
Got 100k on mine it’s starting to have a little quell wondering if I should replace some of the idler pulleys and tensioner also?
Naw i doant have issue with those in this engine
Good vid!
Do you happen to have a Amazon/link for the belt tool?
Thanks, I'm sorry I am not in that program
You do a battery cable yet? I’m doing one on my 2017 F250 now and all I can think is “screw Ford engineers”!!!
What r u doing that 4!?!?!
Powerstroketechtalkwarod@gmail.com
Hey arid what’s up brother, any videos on a dual alternator 6.7 or recommendations
Nope, but not much different homie
I am getting ready to do this tomorrow on my truck. Would you recommend changing the tensioner as well
Hell no. Ive never done one. They're go to go
I just finished. I had to double check the routing. I have a 2011 with the double sided belt. It runs a little different than the later years. This video definitely helped. Thank you.
Thanks so much Brian, glad it helped someone out there!! 🤝👍
Thanks for the great video. Recently bought a used 2017 f350 6.7. First diesel and I love it. I may not be buying motorcraft belts, though. $400+? No thanks.
Who ever is charging your 400 for a belt is takin you fer a ride
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Believe it or not, Motorcraft.com. Thanks for replying.
Ford store doesnt sell them for that price. Thats the craiset thing ive heard
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod My mistake. Parts.ford.com
Lmao.....either way...a motorcraft belt or a ford belt even if you cld get one....is not gonna be four hundo....
I think they are easier than doing the 6.4 belts. The trucks we had the belts had ribs on both sides- just a 2011 thing?
Yeppp DUAL ALTS HAVE DUAL RIBS!!!
I have a 2011 F-250 with the single alternator and when I had my belt replaced the one that came off it (from factory) was ribbed on both sides and the new one that was put on is ribbed on both sides. Did something change in the design, do I happen to have the wrong belt, or does it not matter?
11's had dual ribbed
I will definitely be referencing this video when I need to do that . Could you just cut the old belt off to save some time ?
U cld but wldnt u like to see how u got it off so u cld put it ba k on the same way in the nooks and crannys...?
So my belts off saved me time there lol
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod my belt blew off in pieces due to my a.c. compressor seizing up.
Say I’ve got a squeak at idle, sounds like the drivers side, little worse when cold. Belt tensioner or other pulley or alternator? 2013 6.7 Powerstroke. Thanks! It’s driving me nuts, but no drivability issues whatsoever
Did u spray the belt? Did the noise go away?
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod not yet, I’ll try that and let ya know
I just bought a 2011 f350 with 80k on it. I watched your maintenance schedule video and I'm going to do the transmission fluid and filter next weekend as it hasn't been done. Should I replace the gasket or if it's in fine condition should I re-use it? I've never taken apart anything with a gasket and re-used it so I've got the fear.
Reusable gasket. If u wanna replace it, do it
Word
ARod, there's some guys asking for a 2017+ belt change. Do you have a video?
Damn i sure dont. It wld be the same tho as by other 6.7 belt videos
What are all the sparkelies on the new belt? Do they have strippers working at the belt plants?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Does the 6.7 l have the same kickstand in the tensioner like the 6.0 liter does
Nope!
Are we supposed to use one hand the whole time? I'll do my best. 🙂
Lmaooooo. I did....
hope this isnt a repeat question , hopefully not a stupid question either but im courious if theres a proper direction to install belt ,for example the print on belt,does it matter if print on belt is to face front of truck , or does it matter ? my print on belt is facing backwards toward cab of truck were it cant be read easily ,didnt notice it until i already had it installed ,took me about an hour to do install not to bad but would hate to have to redo it , but will if i need to
Nope, makes no difference bud. Good question tho
awsome thank you , thanks for your reply and your videos ,they are very appreciated
Thanks Eric
Did mine once...took almost all day lol
Omg.....lol
You're the only video on youtube that shows it... as far as I know :)
YES I AM!!!!!!!!!👍👌👊🤚😉😉😉
I seen a diagram for a 2011 6.7 with the double sided grooves on the belt. It showed it going over the top idler pulley not under it. For all other years it shows it going under the top idler pulley. Can you confirm this? Single alternator
Your findings are correct. 11 only had a different routing. Some others had it too if it had dual generators. Depends on the build date tho.
Ok good deal, belt blew on me due to this and now I know why. Thanks
Nice. How did you bump it over without it starting? I know back in the day you had the starter wire on the passengers side wheel well area. Not sure how to correctly bump over a 6.7 without yanking fuses (not that I would do that, just never had to do it, yet)!
Even crazier, I have push-button start.
There is a grey connector on the passenger side battery you can disconnect and access the power wires to the starter
You should have seen me when the cluster was displaying RPM. I used the key, went to crank for half a second and then off. You can see the RPM barely moved...
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod
Yes sir! Just wondering how you would do that with push-button start, since it engages the starter for a length of time.
Thanks!
Take foot off brake immediately after pushing button
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Ahhh, gotcha. Thanks, you are the man!
The bolt you removed does it have a certain torque rating when you reinstalled it
Im sure it does but i just tighten it until its snug, then give it another snug. Not to crucial there with that bolt
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod Thk u
I replaced idler pulley and alternator so I never took the belt completely off but now i can’t get it back on. I’m thinking but might be from using a 3/8 long ratchet instead of the tool because I can’t get enough slack to get the belt on. I thought maybe the tensioner was bad but after watching this video I’m doing it exactly like you but can’t get enough belt 😩
Ughhhh cmon man u got this
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod do you think it’s from using a long ratchet instead of the tool ?
Could be not gettin enough leverage
Do you have a video on what to remove to get to the belt and pulleys? On the side of the road. Lol
I dont, but there isnt much u need. Email me or send me a DM
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod how dm I do you? I tried email so far
got ur email
Some people said that the belt could last longer if you would treat the belt with 303 or armor all prior to installment of the belt.....do you recommend it or it's not necessary?
Secondly, after you removed the belt should you clean the pulleys with some degreaser too so no junk may interfere with the belt i.e. squealing sound.
Just replace the belt that's it dude
Do the single rib belts chirp when the engine is shut off as well?
They all do. Its just a characteristic of the engine shutting off and everything slowing down. Nothing you'll do will take care of it. A normal noise...
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod I figured that, thanks.
I replaced the belt on my 2008 6.4 diesel and three weeks later it came off, the bolt in the center of the engine (snapped off,cost to fix 608.00.
Are these steps the same in a 2017 F350 6.7 Powerstroke?
Yea...
Good vid, How many miles do belts usually last before they need to be replaced?
All depends. Thats what visual inspections r for
I have 182000 on a 2014🤞
Awesome, good 2 hear
209,000 on a 2014! But I just pulled the old one off! Only replacing because I need to fix vacuum pump oil leak
Figured I'd go ahead and put a new belt.
@@slickwilly6944 how did that vacuum pump cover leak fix go?
Do one on a 2020 xlt f350 dually 6.7
Cake walk
Does it matter which way your alternator spins?
Its only gonna soin 1 way. If you have belt in correctly. If u need help...you got our hotline #
What color must be OEM ford coolant for 2012 6.7 powerstroke? One dealership telling me it must be orange, another green.
Its no longer orange. It is the new Ford yellow.....it just looks green
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod This is what the last dealership told me. Thank you so much. Now I’m fighting with the serpentine belt. Looks like the new belt is shorter than old fomco belt but when I compared them the new is couple inches longer)))
I installed the right side idler pulley (near the alternator) to the wrong mounting hole which looks like kind of triangle, arrow shape. That’s why my belt was too short)))) spent 2 days finding the way to make the belt fit 😂😂😂 Thank you so much for your videos! I made my wife sad but i fixed the truck my main priority!!!!
Hahahahaha thanks Mrs.....🙏
Why is the length for the 2012'. 138"in and 2011'. 126"in. Both are single alternator. 2011 is double sided, and short with the same belt diagram. Talk about drive you crazy. I put the left side and the tensioner on. Go under the crank. Around the water pump, and power steering, under the right idler. The I stop take the belt off the left auxiliary water pump. And take the tension off. Belt refuses to go around the alternator. Driving me nuts. Been stranded with a load for 3 days.
The routing for a 2011 single alternator is different. I just finished my 2011. I found the diagram at vmacair.com
Man ridiculously over engineered
Mine made went reeee and the belts all piled and tight...not sure if tensioner broke. -12 outside yay me
Awe....
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod yup tensioner has no bearing...lol..wasn't even making noise until kablam reeee. Your vid was a time saver.
What’s the avg miles you’d recommend having the belt replaced on a 2015 6.7??
All on visual inspections & if its makin noise or not...
Ford recommends change @ 150k
It is a wearable item. Not all will follow that interval...
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod most belts never last as long as recommended. All varies with use and dry rot. I just originally asked to see if there was a miles/time frame that you typically changed them out on 6.7’s.
Right, just throwing Fords answer up here for information. Ive got 160k as we speak, no issues but will be replacing regardless. Do 4k - 5k miles per week delivering rv's n ski boats all over western u.s. so an ounce of prevention...wil be using your xlnt vid to help!👌👍🏻Thank You!
I have 2019 6.7. I can't slide the belt behind the bracket like you did because the wire runs along the bracket and up the front of the engine. Can't figure out how to undo the wire harness. Don't want to brake it.
What
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod The bracket that holds the wire harness from the fan clutch. On the 2019, that wire runs along that bracket up tge front side of the engine. There is no way to get the belt past the wire, except by unplugging the bug harness on the fan clutch. I can't figure out how that harness disconnects.
Its got a button on it
Can you upgrade to a dual alternator?
Yes
ARod do you know that this tool exists? It's for positioning belts you can push/pull belt onto pulleys. It's 3' long screw driver handle on one end and an "F" on the other. The thing is made out of stiff 1/4" steel.MAC # SBT57900
Wow, thanks
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod seriously you didn't know?
Nope never seen it!
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARodOMG used it all the time on Ford's FWD cars. Great for bottom pulleys. You gonna get one??
I am now!!
What size belt is used for a 11 f350
Gotta look it up
Do you only change the tensioner if the pulley is bad? I work on delivery step vans with Cummings engines and we pretty much change the tensioner with the belt.
Ive never had 2 change a tensioner on a 6.7 before
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod interesting. I’ve had my 2011 F350 since new and it still has the original belt no damage or squeal after 211k miles. That has impressed me.
Thats awesome!!
Well, I won’t be doing that!
You could just cut off the old belt after releasing the tension. Its bad anyway. Cut and pull up
Ya fuggin cheater
Dude you skipped right over how to take the tension off the belt, that was the only reason I came to watch this video
Watch thee other vide
Please walk through how you actually get some of the stuff off. Most of us don't know what we're doing so a walk through of every step would be way more helpful.
Watch the other video where i took nothing off...
My dealer put on a double sided belt.... ribbed both sides..
Some take it, some dont..
How many miles on the old belt?
80k
I’m gonna really make your next belt removal 100 times easier once you release tension just cut the damn belt and it will pull right out
That's cheating son...
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod hmm I didn’t know being easier would be considered cheating go ahead and say that never crossed your mind lmao 🤣 🤨
@seanb2491 trust me it has but pulling it right out like you're suggesting doesn't help u pay attention to how it is supposed to be ran.
That's IS unless you know how it goes then eff what I said
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod I can agree to that 😉
That looks like a pain in the ass
Thats exactly what I was thinking.
Another reason to buy a 6.2 never have to deal with this nightmare.
@@natehawkins2910 The 6.7 is a engine you own it till the warranty is about to end then trade it off and buy a new truck. I work as an non certified mechanic I look at the 6.7 and think glad I never have to work on or own one. I own a 6.0 its the last diesel pickup I will ever own, for the kilometers I put on the truck now it will last me quite a few more years.
What a pain in the ass
POS trucks, ty for the guide tho
Love your videos. Hate this intro montage. Takes away from excellence of rest of the video.
Awe, cmon....
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod - I know, I know, harsh. But it’s because I love the videos so much......
Speaking of, I found this one in particular because yesterday my 2019 f450 lost brakes and power steering at the same time.....right when a school bus was barreling toward me. Yikes!
My tubby ass was standing on the brakes with both feet, and couldn’t do any real braking. The steering was so heavy it would take four grown ass men to operate it. Well, crisis averted, I got the truck parked, then towed to the dealer. They called & said an animal probably got caught in the belt and now I need a new one. But of course they don’t have one. Anyway, was looking into the belt change process because the bill is around $460 so far.
Keep up the cool, useful & easy to understand videos bubba.
I've seen worse
Those batteries 🤮 lol
Another reason I would never buy a 6.7 powerstroke what a joke to change the belt.
Its just a belt. Took me 20 minutes, not a joke at all.
Amen ARod,! So glad you said that. Just a belt that rarely has to be changed is definitely a poor reason to not buy a 6.7. Extremely reliable, strong engine!
Love em!!
Yup we can do it, but do you want to, NO.. Lol. Great Video as always, Thank you.
Thanks James!!
My 2011 6.7 has double sided belt and I can not get it on. looks like it is to short. Why is yours 1 sided ribs??? Thank you
