    Excellent video - I was able to fix my own fuel leak for $50 instead of the $700+ quoted... My mechanic buddies didn't think I could do it on my own (because I'm female...), but thanks to you I can now go rub their faces in it! :)

    Thank you..... I am a new diesel owner of a 7.3.
    I have viewed pretty much every one of your videos, that is what has help me to decide to buy a diesel and do the work myself being on a budget a tight budget is the only way that I could afford it. Thank you so much for your patience.

    I've got a leak on the back side of my fuel bowl. Thanks for this thorough rundown. I'm going to pull my fuel bowl in the morning. I've modified my fuel lines to the heads by putting hydraulic fittings in the head and also replaced the brass fittings with hydraulic fittings so I didn't have to worry about the fuel lines leaking...ever. &, no rubber pieces to go bad or replace on either end of the fuel lines. I used "brake lines" in place of the OEM fuel lines, flared to 37 deg. (JIC or AN)

    Whenever you clean a fuel system part(s) always use products designed for fuel use. For example: fuel additives designed to clean fuel buildup and gum. Same additives used in fuel tank works well in concentrated form for fuel related parts and you don’t have to worry about affecting O-rings from harsh cleaner residue.
    Your disassembly and reassembly spot on, but choice of cleaners needs to change. Brake Cleaner absolutely worst to use on diesel fuel part(s) regardless how many time you wipe clean with cloth. Slightest amount of Brake Cleaner contacting O-rings will chemically react and cause future leaks.
    Dawn dishwashing soap, toothbrush, hot water, and hair dryer works really well if you don’t have or willing to spend money for diesel fuel additives as a cleaner...!

    i had the old stlye element short out and activate the anit-theft system on my 95. it would NOT allow the truck to start unless it is deactivated by a dealer. it cost me $500 to have my computer reflashed to fix this. i never reinstalled the heater to make sure i never went through this again. truck runs fine without it. i live in the NJ/NYC area and its never been a problem in the winter. AGAIN - great video.. thanks for takin the time.

    what year 7.3 is this from? cause i think the o ring kits are different for the earleir years, also, im gonna guess yours is a later version 7,3 from looking at the fuel bowl heater. this is a great video, just what i was looking for. one thing id like to mention to anyone looking to do this with the other style heater element. BE VERY CAREFULL removing and instaling it. the older ones are much thinner, and if the element slips off the post its attached to, either throw it away or buy a new one

    Trey,
    I just replaced the fuel/water separator valve on my 2000 F250 7.3L. I could see fuel coming out of the drain tube. The valve and o-rings are new, but it's still leaking and the fuel is coming out of the same drain tube. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do now?
    Thanks, Dave

    I pulled my fuel bowl hou an pulled my hpop. I found the non service bolt was leaking. I removed to bolt and the ball or whatever was in there slid down as I turned over the pump. I fliped it back up and it sild back in. I replaced the washer on the bolt and resealed. put it all back together and now it wont start. Good power just wont turn over .What do you think. Did I screw up removing the bolt ,or is the engine vapor locked somhow?

  • @thinner355
    @thinner355 11 лет назад

    I've done the same thing an I noticed when I was looking at the new piece I could still see where fuel could weep by. I ended up notching the handle so I could turn it another 1/8" in the off direction .An that solved the problem

I have both a clean filter in this side of the filter that everything completely disassembling the tank, the tap which is also present in my filter, is that it can not be the cause of light loss, so I empty the filter? causing me stop the motor. I think I understand that your lost slightly right? hello and thank Sergio

    Trey: this is unrelated to fuel bowI'm changing out lift pump on 2002 ford excursion psd. the rear clip on the quick connect line. How does this clip come off: do you just pry the plastic up? The front is no problem I see how that comes off. the rear I don't. Must you get a new clip from ford after removal. Also on your video on fuel pressure test, I have a fuel pressure test kit from Harbor freight, has all the connections except the one that fits the fuel bowl location on your video. where did you get the adapter: Thanks, l.

    Thanks for taking the time to make a good video Trey! I've always had very good support/tech help from www.dieselorings.com
    Also powerstrokehelp.com/ is a valuable info site also.(FYI...Even the dealership doesn't tell you to change the oil in your HPOP to save injectors.They told me they have never heard of that and it would be additional service.First time I drained my 99 F-350 at 60k it was thick n black. I now have 400k and never replace an injector yet)

    Not a bad video but you should really lubricate orings instead of assembling stuff with them dry, you could roll or pinch one. It'll make it easier without having to force things together either

      You're absolutely right. A little diesel fuel would do great to lubricate the orings. I've learned a lot making these videos
