Comforting video my 03 7.3 starter dumped last week.. Went to O'Reilly's. Got the Ultima.. new one.. because I needed it same day. Installed it.. it's starting my truck fast.. I'm liking it.. Such as easy install.. if it only last as year. Then I'll just go to the closest O'Reilly's and say swap in the spot.. very happy with it.. so many Denso recs..
I can confirm this. My 02 has the same starter you have. As soon as I turn my key, starts on a dime. Even my dad wishes his 2000 can start as fast as mine.
@@tylerdavis288 yea I'd check the battery cables and connections. Battery cable can looks really good on the outside and have rusty and rotten wiring inside. Also have the batteries load tested first.
@@jefflancaster6587 my local shop said it's a big old Ford and with it being roughly 20 degrees here most days, he said that's normal. I will add a word of caution. I started it the other day and heard a horrible metallic scrape sound, found out the top bolt of my starter had shaken loose and fallen out and the bottom was loose. Check your bolts every time you check the oil
I made a few videos on the 7.3 service truck I had and I got the same comments every time I started it. People just wouldnt believe it was because good batteries, cables, and starter.
Nice trucks. I once had a 6.0 starting this fast...after I sprayed some ether in the intake 😆 Had a dummy plug o ring leak and it wouldn’t start without it lol
@@Zach_A I think Ingersoll Rand still makes some models in the US however I'm not exactly sure if it's MADE IN USA or Assembled in USA which is most of DeWalt stuff bragging about their "American" tools. I still prefer Makita or Milwaukee.
Ok good video. The used 01 350 7.3 i just bought had brand new Duralast Gold 850cca batteries with a 09/21..date..they have never turned the starter over like i would like to hear it. No corrosion on the hefty new cables. I'll load test them this week before i try a new heavier starter. To bad i don't have the receipts for these 6 month old Autozone Batts.
I'm glad I ran into your channel. Beautiful. When and if I need batteries I will step up to a new non-refurbished battery because all batteries are refurbished but not Odyssey.
My 6bt is the same. Even in the cold. First crank except when it's around 30 degrees once it does start takes a little for it to reach idle it puffs and puffs
Hmm I replaced my stock one when it broke with a regular input shaft and it starts right up with no problem. Even this past winter cranking in the cold for a few never seemed to slow down. But I’ll keep it in mind when it goes
I know it's old vdo but just curious how is that starter still working for u. Did u had to change it after these yrs or still going strong coz mines about to go out? Please let me know whenever u get a chance. Thanks 👍
Bought a NAPA Denso gear reduction and it lasted 12 months. Of course it went out on vacation. Luckily a little whack with a hammer and it started up. Had to do that twice on the trip.
I have a smaller 7.3 starter laying around and an older bigger one on my 7.3 and also a 6.7 starter, I wanna see if I can Mickey Mouse the 6.7 starter to fit my 7.3 I’m curious the effect it will have
Bought this starter today because I watched this. Was a bitch to get the old one out because they put the 3rd bolt way up in the middle of no where but got the new one in in less than 10 minutes
First time watcher but, did you modify / hack the stock dash cluster and install it into the more modern dash assembly 🤔. That is a dang good idea and doable with enough effort maybe. Laminate question, that is not the interior of a 7.3
The late model 7.3 came with a better gear reduction starter. My 2003 has one. Fires up insanely good. If you have a early model 7.3 upgrading to the later starter is cake.
Same starter as a newer kubota diesel in the rtv they make. Just had to replace mine yesterday. Wish I woulda seen your video before cause the price I paid was way higher than what’s on your laptop. 🤦🏻♂️
Hey bro , Will 2008 front panels hood grill and doors fit on a 2006 king ranch 350? , and why is my KR 2006 fully loaded but has no blowers in the center console for the rear passengers?
@@zacharymcfarlin1270 You got the terminals and cables from them? Just bought an 00 7.3l and looking into swapping them cables. 45 colt starter is already there
Well my reason is to go for that starter is because it's easier on the batteries for if you need to use glow plugs to warm up the engine to start easier in the mornings and it also the starter will pump oil faster into the injectors for a can help it push the fuel into the combustion chamber to help startup faster
The thing is guy it's not just your starter he have done the proper battery cables negative and positive proper batteries the proper grounding of your vehicle all that goes with starting up of your vehicle and not just your starter

No one:
RUclips: wanna hear a truck start really fast?
Lol obviously I do!!
Glad to see you back. Looks like your having fun again.
Mechanic : what size you need ?
Zach : bout the size of the miller light .... Yea bout the size of can a beer
Mechanic: say no more
🤣

Just put this starter in today, so badass. The manufacturer on Oreiley is a variation of denso.
The humor is off the charts this go round 😂😂😂
Nice trucks. I once had a 6.0 starting this fast...after I sprayed some ether in the intake 😆 Had a dummy plug o ring leak and it wouldn’t start without it lol
High speed starter gets the the high presure oil pump to 800 psi so it can start faster. It only uses 2 bolts instead of 3 like the stocker.
This is America!!!
*Chinese made impact wrench*
Nobody makes battery impacts anywhere other than china. Even tool truck brands are made there.
Zachary Adams wait till he find out where the majority of his trucks part were produced. Assembled in america, supplied by everywhere else

Seen you at Cletus and cars Houston man. Awesome truck looks amazing in person
Thanks for all the 7.3 info brother.
"This is America" 😂🙌🏼 love the videos brother!!
I put the new big boy starter in my 02 and it was fight to get that big mother in. Time to make some new cables and buy those Odyssey batteries!!
WHAT COLD CRANKING ARE THOSE BATTERIES? I LIKE THOSE BRAIDED LINES TOO.

Man, a good sounding starter Just ooof adds the cherry on top
Is it because the engine is worn out and has no compression?
Dan Stennis it’s generally batteries but sometimes an injector’s return line can go bad and lose prime and then it will have a hard time starting.
Dan Stennis low compression would make for harder starts less restince doesn't mean its gunna start eaiser
A skip would make a sound but if it was just worn out evenly it wouldn’t.
Beat me to it.
Yes. Yes it is 🤣
I believe those big ones came on the older 7.3 IDI trucks but that are awesome!
This dude sounds stoned and I LOVE IT.
Hmm I replaced my stock one when it broke with a regular input shaft and it starts right up with no problem. Even this past winter cranking in the cold for a few never seemed to slow down. But I’ll keep it in mind when it goes
Those battery cables cleannn 👍🏼
I really like your cables what did you use for the cable covers
I know it's old vdo but just curious how is that starter still working for u. Did u had to change it after these yrs or still going strong coz mines about to go out? Please let me know whenever u get a chance. Thanks 👍
Holy shoot that truck starts good. Wish my truck started that good.
And I thought she was starter fluid injected 😂
Bought a NAPA Denso gear reduction and it lasted 12 months. Of course it went out on vacation. Luckily a little whack with a hammer and it started up. Had to do that twice on the trip.
Where did you procure those terminals and the wire? I need to make new ones for my truck.
It sure cured my cold morning starts !
Can you send me a link or where you found those cables for your custom battery terminals i want to do something similar
😂 a buddy of mine had a 7.3 great truck but he was always plugging it in to get er started
Got the same starter for $125 on Amazon. DB Electrical. Had it since 2020.
love this video! hahahaha!! thanks for sharing!
You made some sick cables there
I have a mean green for 1 year now, it spins so fast that I’m scared it might break the fly wheel
Next starter for sure
I'm a gas guy but damn many gas engines dont start that easy
TheBegoing idk man mine starts after a few cranks 😂 and she 20 years old
What do you recommend for the 6.0🤔
Appreciate your humor 😅 hawaii
That is 1 bad ass starter
Did you change the dash out?
Every ford needs that starter
Holy shit man, how many starters have you gone through?
I have a smaller 7.3 starter laying around and an older bigger one on my 7.3 and also a 6.7 starter, I wanna see if I can Mickey Mouse the 6.7 starter to fit my 7.3 I’m curious the effect it will have
There are ways to put the 6.7 starter on the 7.3, I think you just change nosecone.
Where did u get the link bushing from?
These starters get the job done PERIOD !!
Where did you get the battery cables?
Where did you get those battery and alternator and starter cables.
Nice truck you got there
i made all the cables myself. the alternator is off a OBS ambulance 240 amp alternator
did you try the x2 power agms?
i prefer commercial truck batteries from napa, with stud terminals, i hate those stupid post type terminals. 125$ per battery aint bad either
Where did you get those cables?!
5:35 this is America 🙏🏼 🇺🇸
Where’d you get the battery cables?
Thats badass
You have a very strong personality. Have you always been like that
Where you get those cable ends
Bought this starter today because I watched this. Was a bitch to get the old one out because they put the 3rd bolt way up in the middle of no where but got the new one in in less than 10 minutes
Damn, how did that start so fast??
My Napa starter was legit. Never used an oreileys cause they arnt local much.
Damn that thing spins fast as hell , too bad it didn't do that from the factory !
First time watcher but, did you modify / hack the stock dash cluster and install it into the more modern dash assembly 🤔. That is a dang good idea and doable with enough effort maybe. Laminate question, that is not the interior of a 7.3
Sorry dude, I just checked out your channel! Definitely going to watch and learn a little.
Hmm 🤔 I always wondered if changing my starter would change the way my truck starts
The late model 7.3 came with a better gear reduction starter. My 2003 has one. Fires up insanely good. If you have a early model 7.3 upgrading to the later starter is cake.
I have a 97. Any idea if I have the old or new style?
@@hondaxl250k0 you'll be able to tell by how fast it cranks over. i never have to crank my engine for more than 2 seconds.

Will that work on a 6.0?
Man has quality parts
Bring that truck to northern Canada in the winter when its -40 and then see how fast it starts.
Yea buddy!! Where you u get your battery cables and clamps?
FixItNick amazon. Look up fastronix
Zachary McFarlin will do
@@zacharymcfarlin1270 You got the terminals and cables from them? Just bought an 00 7.3l and looking into swapping them cables. 45 colt starter is already there
My 7.3 starts slow but I’ve got decent batteries so I’m going to buy that starter and see what happens 👍🏼
I have a zf6 6 speed Transmission im going see will it work

I got the same starter . Bust my 7.3 with no effort
I got an Ultima on my 6.4 and it’s 👍🏻
Where did you order your battery cable from?
Josh Stanley a store
Where can I get battery cables like that?
Xdp makes them for about $340 check full force diesel if anything
The thing is guy it's not just your starter he have done the proper battery cables negative and positive proper batteries the proper grounding of your vehicle all that goes with starting up of your vehicle and not just your starter
Whys your coolant so low?
I’ve got a mean green starter. It turns my engine over at idle speed. Lol
1:20 -that’s what she said
Need this for my 7.3l
I love how you have no rust! Jealous 😆
GOD DAMN, watch the oil pressure gauge when he is cranking it. The gauge was actually showing oil pressure, that motor is spinning with that starter!
You got a new sub today fu,#$ ford ay
I would say it’s 3/5 the price of the Denso.
I’m cracking up I’ve got the same truck… same starter.. and same first and last name just spelt with “land” at the end
I have a Denso worth its weight in gold but not cheap
I just wanna know what the hell is up with that dash and cluster😂😂
Hey brother just came across your video do you make battery cables? I own a obs 7.3 and my positive battery cables are absolutely thrash.
Im looking for some as well
@@danielesparza3530I make them if you need a set
What part number Odyssey batteries are those. I'm going to need a pair before winter
Odyssey 65-PC1750T
So bottom line, "Size does matter"!😅😂
So, does this 2001 7.3 have the interior out of the black 15 lifted 6.7 you had in one of your videos?
Repo ManND they have the exact same
Interiors but no the 7.3 did not get its interior from my 6.7

oce nitro trail grapplers 40x15.5r20

Time to put this in my 5.3
I don’t think it will work for a Chevy 5.3 lol
those are the best batteries, i have used them
