I want to note that I installed new fuel rails at the same time, just so the truck had a new pressure sensor and regulator (price of the complete rails was close to the price of the sensor and regulator by itself). I also used brake cleaner spray and compressed air to carefully clean out all the high pressure fuel lines.
Thank you for the speedy response. I reviewed your video on a bigger screen and see a coppery colored bulge on the end of the line like a ferrule. You stated you replaced the rail but reused the connecting line. Im assuming they all use a similar joint. Its a mystery to me what this crush washer thing theyre talking about. There is no doubt about the cloud of diesel mist, a little honesty by them would be nice. They kept my truck for 36 hours waiting for some "washers" they ordered. Thanks for your time, you seem like a straight shooter.
@@michaelnash1676 I just can’t imagine what they are referring to. I can’t help but think they are BS’ing you. I really think it’s as simple as tightening up the nuts on the injection lines that were disturbed. Or undoing them, and reseating them and tightening the nuts. Also, you are correct, in this video I reused all of the fuel lines. Had no problems or issues from this. Hope you get it square away, but it does sounds minor. I would deal with it asap though, given the extreme pressure in those lines.
Mine is at the dealer right now for recall on that pump. They have been telling me for a year that none were available ,interesting to see it's a Bosch. Thanks
@@stevenberg1903 it was on a back order for the longest time. But hey, if you’re getting a new, high dollar injection pump installed for free, that’s great!
@@stevenberg1903 very nice. Just from my experience over several Ecodiesels, consider pre-emptively replacing the lift pump around 150k or so. All of the ones I’ve replaced had between 140k-190k miles before they died.
How is the truck running? My big question is the gear. Does it need to be pressed on? Or can that nut press it on? And thank you so much for the video. I have a cpx looking at me on an r&r.
@@bluesteeljay9343 sorry I didn’t respond sooner. No, the nut draws the gear down onto the shaft. Truck ran and still runs fine. Thanks for the kk d words!
My 2015 is deleted so having any work or recalls done at the dealership is always a battle! I’ve been able to do most of the repairs myself with the help of your videos and tips!
@@seancota5454 that’s awesome, so glad to hear that. It’s amazing how consistently poor the service is from any dealer regarding the ecodiesel. The more you can do yourself, the better. Appreciate your comments.
Good day, my dealer completed the high pressure pump recall and had issues with clouds of diesel mist coming out around the hood. After attempting to correct several times it was decided the crush washers had to be replaced. I'm assuming they are on the lines that go to the rails. When I park at night I still see mist coming out around the headlights and have smelled diesel fuel since the initial replacement. They are going to attempt another repair with new washers. I'm wondering if I need a new dealer. What are your thoughts , experience with this issue?
@@michaelnash1676 crush washers? I’m not aware of any associated with the high pressure fuel system. Just simple flare fittings. The mechanic hasn’t tightened down the line properly. Very, very carefully observe where it is coming from with the engine idling. If there are any loose fittings, and I’m sure there are, tighten with 19mm or 3/4” wrench. But yes, find a different dealership or a private diesel shop.
My dealer is replacing the HPFP under warranty after a crank no start issue. They didn’t mention replacing the injectors though. Should I be concerned for metal fragments traveling into the injectors and possibly engine
@@richdelgzz in my opinion and experience, no. An injector failing due to metallic debris from the injection pump tearing itself apart is very uncommon. Again, my experience. Let’s just hope they are correct with their diagnosis. The two other most common reasons for a crank, no start, is crankshaft sensor reluctor wheel, and lift pump in fuel tank. I would hope they checked fuel pressure in between lift pump and injection pump and scoped out the crank sensor signal.
Thanks Ed. The last leg bit just reflects the owners mentality with the truck, as it has some severe damage to the rear frame from an accident, coupled with some unusually bad rust/corrosion. Drivetrain is still solid, with the exception of a pinion bearing noise. Truck may be a parts donor in years to come.
@@edtaylor3409 for what it’s worth, the highest mileage truck I’ve seen in person had 271k on it. I’ve seen evidence online of other trucks above 300k. I was curious about the transmission, so I asked the guy about his 271k truck, and he said he had never bothered to change the filter and fluid. So that’s a testament to how good the ZF 8 speed is.
@@tadsworkshop I've been debating on doing that... The old-school mentality is that if you missed the maintenance window it's best to leave it. I'm not sure if I'd help or hurt the transmission at this point if I did it.

Great video. My dealer is still waiting for that part , maybe one day ,four months in.

Clean as a whistle compared to this one. Original owner.👍

@@tadsworkshop thanks, If I was anywhere near you I would be calling for an appointment 😎.
Keep up the work👍👍
@@tadsworkshopi got 211 miles on mine.😊 Its a noisy little pump.
I had i recall on the fuel pressor pump , they change it and it runs much better.
Thank you!!

Why is this truck on its last leg?
Great video these are super hard to find for the ECO D.

@@tadsworkshop Oh good! My truck has 204,000 and is my daily. I fully expect to put a new motor in it someday I'm just hoping not soon.

i'm curious if you have alot of experience with these engines. I have a 2014 full delete that I need help with!. Where is your shop?
Michigan.
Yrah my pump is noisy grindy for some reason.
