I've come back and watched again after 6 years. Yes 6 long years since I last did anything to my 6.4 other than ball joints, oil and filters and fuel filters. and I'm replacing my Gates belt as we speak, 76000 miles on the Gates belt and still looks new. Doing the radiator, tensioners and belts. Really enjoy these videos
Automotive technician here. Thank you for this. I recently started working on diesels daily and this is very valuable to my customers and me. Much appreciated.
I have a 2009 6.4. Did the sinister diesel delete with HS tuner. Run tune on mild with stock power setting. 198k miles, run new royal purple oil every 5k and new filters all around every 10k. Truck runs and drives great. Drive roughly 2k a month, tow a 25ft gooseneck on occasion but she has plenty of power and hasn’t given me any serious issues. Many people bash the engine and when you run a 200+ HP hot tune you’re asking for problems. There’s a ton of high mileage 6.4’s around and if you’ll stick to a severe maintenance schedule there’s no reason you can’t get a decent life out of it.
I have an HS tuner on my 2010 6.4, I run my on stock as well but I’m not sure how to check which level if was put on. If low mild or high. Can you tell me how to check?
Hey can you give me a call? I have a fully deleted 6.4 I also run on a mild tune runs great up until recently. 210k miles my number I’d 8433332005
I just bought a 2010 6.4 that i think has a cracked piston due to the DPF delete without being tuned. If the cylinder is not scored I'm gonna rebuild the engine. I want to do a full delete and tune on it. I will use it as a farm truck to pull my trailers. What all will I need to avoid this problem? And do you have what I'll need and a price? Please let me know!!!
My story as well my tuner stays on stock or haul. Not street never high-performance
looks to me like the idiot who kept driving it after the exhaust got noisy set the truck on fire and totaled it. wouldn't have been damaged if he didn't keep driving it.
Take the down pipe off at the top put a niple in the block off plate fore EBP sensor attach the block off plate to the flange at the top where the down pipe was attached and run a new tube from there to the EBP sensor no big deal. You may have to take the cab bolts out and jack the front of the cab up 6" or so probably dont have to disconnect much just keep an eye on things maybe release the steering shaft bolt. And the shifter just keep an eye on things do not take the cab mount cage bolts out with an air gun. Use a beaker bare or long handled ratchet. The hammering of the air gun will spin the cage nuts
Thanks for the informative video. Mine had the same egr block plate at the end exhaust. I was wrestling w p0401 code and removed the egr cooler. When this little block plate dropped off on my garage floor, I couldn’t believe my eyes people would do that. The truck was from Arizona that I bought a year and half ago. I cleaned the stock egr cooler (I believe so, parts showing made in South Africa), put back everything except the block plate. Code was gone and truck passed smog check. Mpg went up to 17, 3-4 mpg better. It’s been over 1k miles since the repair, and truck appears running happier.
If your truck has a dpf delete, then you need to do the EGR delete. The dpf on these trucks are the root cause of catastrophic failures. Unfortunately though for some reason once you delete the dpf, the EGR cooler becomes a ticking time bomb and will fail very soon, leaving you stranded.
That exhaust bracket broke off because of a lack of support after the egr cooler was removed. Essentially the pipe just vibrates and that bracket eventually breaks off. On my truck, I made a small L bracket that bolts the egr feed pipe to one of the bolts on the exhaust manifold. No need to move the EBP sensor.
If the customer desires more "get up n go",, then removing that provision completely, results in less real estate that needs boosted up.
That bracket you made sounds good tho.
On mine I took that pipe out used the block off plate on top but drilled and tabooed to put a tube on the top and used the sensor where it still worked. It’s been 2 years and it’s still working fine! No problem at all
Just a drag to have the ebp sensor just hanging out by the tube tho. We have done that as well. It must not be an issue cause we have not had to revisit the ones we did like that.
My truck did the exact same thing after sinister EGR/cooler delete. Removed the broke pipe and put block off plate on passenger side pipe. Tapped plate for ebp. No issues ever again.
with an exhaust leak that big there would be a large power loss, and noise, i bet this guy just continued to drive it blindly
I heard he just rolled up the windows and cranked AC-DC's "Highway to hell" and that's where he sent his truck.
Looking for this re routed EBP sensor, where can I buy one? Having back pressure issues, deleted mine 10k miles ago. Have 210k miles on her, runs great just having boost issues. Thanks!
I have a 7.3 and a 6.4 I love my 6.4 no problems what so ever
Jeff Heck just wait.... how many miles?
The 6.4 is a good motor but like any other engine ya gotta take care of it.
I bought a 2008 f250 crew 6.4l (201,717mi) online auction, in Nov, 15 2017. Needs coolant lines, power steering lines, belt tensioners($1700). Got it back today; from dealer $200 oil change, it will be parked until auction, April 16. Got it for $3500 have $5300 (202,989mi)into it. $1800 to go 1,272 miles. Drove it 14 times and hope I don't lose money.
MISFIT ISLAND you’ll probably need new rockers soon.
That 6.4 is a beast of an engine with all of that plumbing and massive turbo on it. Shade tree solutions just aren't subject to the rigors of testing and evaluation as factory (even with their short comings). Get well soon, Merry Christmas and thanks for all of the video's.
The pipe in question did not ruin the truck , however because it was no longer held in place by the cooler it simply had too much vibration in the bracket which broke out the pipe , just my understanding , something I will be aware of in the future for sure!
everyone talks shit about the 6.0. I would take 6.0 over a 6.4 any day.
Bill Hewitt from powerstrokehelp.com calls it a 150,000 throw away engine because it can't be rebuilt. He bought 10 complete salvage engines and was only able to make 3 working engines from them.
bill Hewitt makes all his money off the 6.0,yes a smart man but he don't ever wanna work on shit unless it's 6.0 why cuz they a really problematic as shit and easy for him to fix and make money.
I have owned them all 03 and 05 6.0s and 08 and 14 powerstokes.this 08 6.4 has been 10 times better than then 6.0s I had.
Cody Baker
I have never owned a 6.4. and honestly many of the 6.4 issues stem from shitty tuning and neglect, but same with the 6.0. the cost to fix 6.4 in labor and parts is more than a 6.0. Finding people who can work on them compared to 6.0 is definitely harder. the 6.0 has way more aftermarket. solutions than 6.4s. I respect your opinion and personal experience though. I have just always had really good luck with my 6.0 though.
Yeah I hear this all the time you may be right from your expertize. I know the 6.0 is way easier to work on.but from my experience not better engine.my 6.4 in miles has past both 6.0s and broke down far farless.
I always delete the egr catalyst pipe and relocate the ebp where it bolts up. I weld the ebp fitting to the block off plate and install it where the catalyst pipe originally bolted up.
Yes that works just fine
Dont forget head studs, new connecting rods, new upgraded rocker arm assembly, etc, etc, etc...far as I am concerned the 6.4 is a throw away engine after 150K miles, garbage is an understatement. Had three 6.4's and all have had blown head gaskets and multiple problems. Never again. Waiting for the verdict on the 6.7, with its additive bullshit. I am extremely happy with my 2006 5.9 Cummins, just oil diesel and go. Good luck, great video. Thumbs up.
1970PMD you have none of those trucks, your just a fan boy and your just copying what bill says like many others...
You sound like an idiot. "Never again". I take that to mean you have experienced a failure on the 6.4L? Because I have yet to read on someone who had a problem with a stock 6.4L. Now, if you were talking about the 6.0L, you might have a point. I don't "tune" my trucks/cars then blame the manufacturer for a failure. You shouldn't either.
That’s the normal crack spot it’s a common issue on these replace the up pipes when this happen seems to me the dummy who did the delete and didn’t consider doing up pipes right away caused it. The egr delete kit does actually work you have to monitor things right and not run it too hot that’s why they crack and do that.
The most logical and cost effective solution to these 6.4 problems is to get rid of that turd and put a cummins in its place problems solved
Ford Diesels are going down hill.I got a 2001 7.3 turbo it,s got well over half million km and it,s still going strong.
bud morse 6.7 power strokes are ending up to be really long lived.
And the 6.7 is the only real Ford diesel as its built in house by Ford. All the others were made by Navistar.
Dieselman8v92 6.7 is a collaboration between Ford and an Austrian company.
I've got a 96 7.3 . the only upgrade I want is a 7.3 excursion.
callofdutyguy9 false. The 6.7 is all ford designed and built by ford.
2008 6.4 EGR delete,injectors,mishimoto air to air, ARP headstuds Mini Maxx tuner. Never any problems other than replace oil temperature sensor. Pull fifth wheel camper and 3 car trailer. 400,000 miles. Good day! 18mpg mt 12mpg loaded
Are you running the stock tune on your Mini Max?
Delete the dpf, and buy a tuner to stop regeneration and these motors do just fine. The problem is without def fluid, in order to regenerate they dump fuel to both back cylinders on intake and exhaust stroke to generate mass amounts of heat in order to clean dpf, burns oil out of the cylinder walls and scores them. to hot to properly lubricate those cylinders during regen. Get rid of it early before damage is done and they are a very good running dependable engine. Oh and try to avoid the temptation of throwing another hundred HP to them! That is just asking for trouble.
DEF fluid has nothing to do with the regen of the DPF. DEF is used in the next stage of emissions that uses SCR. You are correct about this engine dumping fuel into the rear cyl. for the dpf regen.
+gary beharrell you are absolutely right, thanks for the correction. I had been told before that it was a step in cleaning carbon build in the dpf but as you stated it is for later treatment of greenhouse gas. We live and learn lol
AH, To be human. I too have false understanding of many things. NP
What’s a good kit
So just do a dpf delete and not an egr delete and tune it correctly?
I really appreciate this video. I wish someone would put up a video on how to do a 6.4 EGR delete correctly. Thanks.
ruclips.net/video/PeEUVGabGTo/видео.html
I’ve just got my video on how to remove and install a EGR delete today on my channel.
Awsome video bud 🎉🎉
trying to educate myself here. based on the title, how did the EGR delete total the truck? the downpipe could have failed even with the EGR coolers in place.
I would say the egr delete totaled the truck because it wasn't a full delete, instead they had to leave that pipe on there because of the ebp sensor. if there would have just been a block off plate where that pipe connected that bracket wouldn't have had the chance to break since the whole pipe would have been removed, a better kit would have offered relocation of the ebp sensor so you could remove the entire pipe.
Bobby Dob, I see your angle. good point. thanks! I wouldn't have considered relocating the EBP. to me, a delete always consisted of the EGR bypass and removal of the coolers with block off plates.
Scott Newman yeah,, I kinda did the keyword trick with the title. But hey,, the title has merit. Lol
Scott Newman the other end of the pipe that was capped off previously had the support from the rest of the egr piping
A truck being totalled means the cost of repair comes to as much or more than the value of the truck. A diesel engine to rebuild or replace is very very expensive with labor costs, you're always better off replacing though as you could have it rebuilt and it could die the next day or within a month as it has a lot of miles, and was damaged and repaired which usually does not bring it back to new condition unless every single part is replaced which will cost a lot more in labor and take a lot more time.
Well they decided to drive it with the exhaust leak. Should of pulled over and finished the trip right there. The part failure did not total the truck. The driver deciding to continue to drive it cause the totaled truck.
po28der no kiddin Sherlock!!!! Lol. He could’ve kept driving tho if he didn’t half ass his truck!!
Are you saying the egr delete totaled the truck? Or was it the exhaust leak?
or was it the exhaust leak?
INTERESTING!!! That's the first time I've seen you playing with a non-6.0L truck. How'd you break those cab fasteners loose, without the cage nut spinning inside the body, ESPECIALLY the very front two? Sounds like you're pretty up to speed on the 6.4L stuff too. So when are we going to see you playing with some 6.7s? Since they've been out now since 2011, as you already know, there would be LOTS for you guys to play with. Oh wait? 6.7s don't break nearly as often as 6.0s and 6.4s do. Never mind. Are you going to go inside this beast as well? You know about the prematurely wearing out rocker arm ball pivots, right? What year is this beast? Is it a 2008 by any chance? If so, the front cover may need an updating too.
But back to the topic of fires. There's a broken fastener extractor guy local to us, that once told me a story of a guy at another Ford store in the process of lifting the cab on one of these trucks. He was heating up one of the rearmost cage nuts, and evidently left the torch heating it up too long. It wasn't until he saw smoke exiting one of the windows from inside the cab, did he finally realize he had set the carpet on fire from keeping the torch heating up the nut long enough, for the heat to transfer to the carpet. Apparently that caused some nice interior damage!!!
Those 6.4 Powerstroke are total disaster. It'll catches on fire, because won't fix the engine. The idea of the solution on the 08-10 is the cummins conversation kits or other parts for a solution kit.
You don't like gates belts? They've made machinery belts for 80 yrs and probably make the Ford ones. I'm doing the upipes on my 6 4 as we speak, BD mans and using there pipes, where exactly is the best place for the ebp
I did the same type of delete with the block off plate and I ended up blowing out the flex pipe so I just unbolted the cab and jacked it up a few inches and unbolted that extension and put the plate farther up then tapped the plate and put the sensor in
Difference is,, you knew to stop driving!!!! Keep driving with the exhaust leak until flames are seen!!!! Lol
I’m confused. Was the exhaust part of an aftermarket kit that was not up to par? Any pre-turbo leak that big should be noticeable (boost gauge would have helped big here) enough to shut her down. It’d be nice if the author answered questions.
Jeffrey Lonigro I try to describe in the video. Keeping up with comments will never happen. We run a fairly busy shop and these videos are mainly for the customers to see what’s going on with their actual truck.
I think it says Abit more about the delete kits. This one just cut one too many corners . Think about this that cavity just to the evpb is getting blasted the entire time with little pressure relief.
The turbo back pressure sensor must have blown its mind
My 6.4 blew the up pipe too. I just took it all out and just capped it at the top
John Kelsern when you cap it on the top do you still need to use the sensor or you can just tape the sensor
@@jorgebarriga8574 Just tape it with some good 'ole duct tape.
So the title is wrong.
It's not a cheap EGR delete, it's a cheaply designed and manufactured OEM pipe that houses the EBP sensor.
True dat.
No, it's not meant to have that cheap shit added to it that is why it failed. It's a complete supporting system.
@@officialyoutubecommentator4357
No, the horizontal cooler supports the pipe. Once removed the pipe hangs there. The delete plate works well, but having pipe hang is eventually going cause issue. Make a bracket (as said a few threads back) or get up pipe with the egr part of it not there.
I drilled and taped my manifold for the ebp. Looks like it should be factory
Looking for the rerouted EBP sensor, having boost issues. Where can I buy one? I have a 6.4 with 210k miles deleted 10k miles ago, up until recently I started having issues.
So are those the Up Pipes that got destroyed? I got a shop thats doing a EGR delete on my 6.4 f350 in a week or so and im deciding if i should upgrade my up pipes, since their gonna be pulling the cab off anyways... any advice????
Thanks Anthony
Tye 6.4 is a good motor if you baby it and change oil religiously. As well as keeping idle time down and removing all emissions controls... but it is a throw away motor. You cannot rebuild these engines without having something go on them shortly after they are on the road. You can't put something on an engine that ultimately kills it and expect it to survive long. (Egr,dog) the 6.4 makes a lot of power. But it costs more to repair than a 6.0. As well as the relationship between international navistar and ford is pretty sour and getting anything isn't that easy.
If a motor is only good if you baby it, change oil excessively, don't idle it and let it pollute then it is not a good motor!
cjeam exactly man. But it does make lots of power....
curtis munday not true at all lmao
xTGx Phyzix He’s right. My 6.4 has a ton of power. Only bad thing is that I’m on my 3rd engine with 180,000 miles on my truck. Trust me the engine itself isn’t bad it’s all that EPA shit that makes it fail and give it a bad name. Fords DPF system was terrible and both times my 6.4 blew up was because of a bad DPF. On the 3rd engine I got sick of it and gutted the inside of of the DPF and also gutted the Catalytic converters just for the hell of it. I now get better fuel economy, more power and don’t have to worry about that stupid thing causing my engine to blow up again.
Ben Little yeah that’s basically what I said. If you have the dpf on it’s a ticking time bomb waiting to blow. But if you remove it the truck will go 600k-700k easy.
So, did you ever develop a better delete system?
We have up pipes that eliminate this issue. Have been doing them since this video. But the cheap eBay pipes basically put us on hold. I decided to not try to compete with the hundred dollar setups available online. We still can do ours,, but they are NOWHERE near the eBay prices. Its 400 for ours. So yeah,, I’m not trying to price match some crazy cheap crap so we decided to let the customers decide. I do tell them if we put on some cheap china pipes and they need anything,,, I will not be eating the time!!!! Lol
@@AnthonyYoungblood $400 is more than fair. The labor is super cringe, though. 😂🤣
Doing a delete on my 09 550 thx for the info. Interested in buying a proper pipe overhaul but ill just add clamps to that mount on the back of the engine for now... Im at 146k needs a new camshaft and im the second owner got it from California state government
I havnt seen a new ford powerjoke in a while in my work parking lot, which employs over 1k. Just a '06,'07 & 2014 are the only ones everyone rather go with Dodge or a GM.
I am wondering on the 6.4 is there a better high pressure pump on the market and what is with the zip tie thanks
1)Cheap
2)Reliable
Pick one
Idk if any diesel has ever really been cheap, maybe an old 6.9idi.
that's tragic beyond belief for such a dinky part 😥
Everybody says to do an egr delete, but it appears to kill head gaskets unless you install a waste gate, which is too expensive for me. I just want to prevent my egr coolers from leaking into motor, any good options?
Don Olypopper regent and dpf are what really kill these engines
The truck was a hunk of shit on the dealer lot😂
Where can you buy the kit and how much for it?. Thanks
Last good diesel Navistar and Ford built was the 7.3 direct injection PSD, period.
6.4 looks pretty in the show room; but not so pretty in a salvage yard.
Who wants a motor that you can't repair unless you pull the cab off?
No body wants to deal with an A/C recharge when you have to deal with something else completely unrelated.
Diesels with aluminum heads? Yeah, maybe for a disposable motor. What rocket scientist thought that was a good idea? Diesels require iron heads for engine longevity. Look at the 12 valve 5.9, it is bullet proof.
Overheat those aluminium heads once and you're F'ed. You can't rebuild an aluminum head. You have to toss it and buy a new one. Oh, by the way, that's two heads at a time on a Ford. If you're not counting.
Unless the EPA disappeared next week, your better off getting get a gaser.
The issue isnt so much the kit as it is the instructions, block the egr downpipe off at the connection up top and relocate the EBP. If the individual cannot manage to make those simple modifications then they need to take it to a shop that is well versed in the 6.4!!!
Jeremiah Mooney true story!!!! Lol
Some day the Feds are going to start enforcing the emission laws.
What do u do with the sensors after a dpf delete
just deleted my 6.4 and still throwin codes ...engine light and wrench on dash still on any ideas????
Patrick Dickey if you research the intake elbow,, you prob need those resistors put in. It depends on the tuning you use tho too.
Thanks i will look into it
if it is totaled, then why are you still working on it?
Lol my ass off the EGR delete did brake the exhaust pipe. Better check the turbos. They’re known to go out.
Have 08 f250 what is the price for the kit?
And also do you delete the Monitor for it?
You can do an egr delete but you have to upgrade your piping and add extra flame retardant.
Makes one wonder how many more out there are just like this and are a ticking time bomb.
I'd never touch a powerstroke again. Those Navistar motors that were designed by some european company, ie the 6.0 and the 6.4 are like a bic lighter, they are a throw away motor. You can get more life out of a gasser, so why even bother? I'd be looking close at a dodge pre DEF. What surprises me is there is the odd one around that somehow gets a fairly long life.
Rick James these are good engines its their programs and equipment that kill them they are built well but not built for what they do such as Regeneration on the 6.4 it would dump mor fuel into the cylinders to run hotter exhaust temperatures to burn off in the dpf exhaust temperature can reach or pass 1000 degrees and it used aluminium pistons also since it dumped more fuel in the cylinders it would seep past the piston rings into the crankcase and fill it with diesel all the Useless epa fault with their junk equipment
watch some powerstroke help video's, even Bill doesn't like 6.4's, there like a bic lighter. He makes a living on rebuilding engines so they don't come back and even he will tell you with a 6.4 you need only one part number, it's a number for the entire motor in a crate complete... Trying to rebuild them from cores is impossible, because all the cores are trashed.
Rick James I have if I'm choosing a 6.4 it's not because oh I'm just buying a diesel truck I'm deciding between a 6.8 V10 Triton F-350 or a 6.4 V8 diesel F-350 but if I'm lucky enough to find a 6.4 Hemi Dodge Ram 2500 that be great
Rick James that's an insult to bic lighters they are actually reliable lol
Hey Anthony, do you know of a kit to delete the EPB pipe all together and relocate the EBP sensor to avoid this failure?
Troy Burns we sell up pipes that allow that.

I have 225000 with no problems, but would like to do this egr change over. What state you located in?
How much tuned was this truck running?
Bonjoey and Lynnie I'm not sure who wrote that trucks tuning,, but it was Sct tuned.
That truck went to a great home,, it's VERY NICE. The owner likes power,, and he knows the skinny pedal,, is directly connected to his wallet. Lol. He is running stage 3 now,, and tells me he's gonna bump it. It isn't studded,, but it will be. We will prob rebuild it once he breaks it. He wants another 6.4 as we speak!!! Lol.
It sux that I didn't shoot a final video,, we tig welded our own up pipes using the 6.0 manifolds. But it was a PAIN!!! Getting everything up to our standards took some time.
90 PSI
One question 🤔 what about the California aire are Cunity will it pass Smog 🤔 😏 i hope it works on where you lived
H&S tuning and "cheap" (and illegal) EGR / DPF delete blew up a co-workers truck. Hope you feel better
SSG Pentland no it didn't his foot did
Did you make the new tube for the EBP ? When I delete my EGR I’m thinking I might need that . I deleted my DPF thus far and it turned a mild truck into a beast ! Now I’d like to delete the EGR and add a better coolant filter and oil filter system to it .
Maybe a catch can. Take that down pipe right back to the up pipe and relocate the turbo boost sensor to the up pipe as well
What tune was he running?
Did you ever make a kit for proper egr delete and the back pressure sensor relocate
Dan Wymer what we have allows use of the factory ebp tube. It does need bent to attach to the factory location tho.
@@AnthonyYoungblood 7203204298 call my please
How do you like your MAC box?
flo pro sells up pipes that has the provision for the backpressure sensor
Jason Bezemek but does it include the tube to mount the sensor in the factory location?? Every kit I've seen doesn't. It's not a big deal for most people,, but if we are going to do it,, why not do all we can.
Yes I just order a set last week of eBay has bung for egt on one and backpressure on other uppipe I did have to extend wire harness. Only three wires
Jason Bezemek so it actually doesn't come with what is needed. The truck in this video has the ebp in the factory location.
I wouldn't blame the delete kit . When I do the delete I remove that pipe
Salvage title is only triggered by the insurance claim. Insurance didn’t had to cover a claim where stupid owner modified original equipment and caused a fire
It's not a fluke failure. Here's another that was saved.
ruclips.net/video/wy8tWJXfx9c/видео.html
Don"t delete. Get BPD egr cooler and oil cooler. No codes that way either.
You gonna put quality parts on it I don't know if GM parts are going to fit on that motor lmao !!!
Its a 6.4. It destroys itself, without help.
Were u located
is it worth the risk of doing deletes on well running trucks or leave stock ?
Paul Fisher the ones that have a total revamp hardware, like ones that completely remove the equipment are worth it, but you can just tune it out as the egrs will clog and overheat the motor(coolant too hot).
what tune equip would you recommend ? right now we have a 2010 XLT DRW with 310,000 stock and the engine runs nice, purrs like a kitten on the highway. it did have a Ford rebuilt motor added about 60,000 miles back by the previous owner (rods or something related to heat, surprise), have 40,000 left on warranty. we paid $14,000 in mint condition in and out. So it would be worth paying something in to it for longevity I think.
Sorry for the misunderstanding I meant to put can't tune it out, all tuners require a sort of hardware kit. I'm not sure how mechanically inclined you are, but I completely removed all the emissions equipment then made my own block-offs(however I completely overhauled the engine with a stroker kit). The only thing I outsourced on the emissions side was just a tuner( really any engine tuner can tune it out, however any daily driver I would not put performance tunes on it. I would take it to a professional's shop to install the kit as you can get warranted on the install.
i heard on that ebp placement is stupid
Why would you delete the EGR, its there for a reason.
Boodieman72 seriously???? On a 6.4????
If you like your truck running for more than a month at a time between repairs you take it off.
You can thank the ever-regulating EPA for the EGR valve.
what a mess
trucks are shit at birth....just leave em on the lot
So moral of the story don't delete your 6.4 I was about to pull the trigger on it.
goldenboygq9 the 6.4 needs it done if you want any longevity. Just don't shortcut it.
Anthony Youngblood What would be the right way to do it man I was Quoted $3,000 for dpf egr and a full 5 inch exhaust I want to do it right but have no idea on what parts to say or what to tell the shop. Definitely do not something like this to happen lol, any advice would be appreciated thanks again.
Those 6.4s are completely gutless motors no ifs ands or buts about them! More so than the 6.0s. 6.4s are more expensive than the 6.0s.
Michael Langdon if that wasn’t sarcasm,, then it should’ve been.
Gutless??? You’re cracking me up. My F450 will wear a cammed C6Z up to 100-110, 4.88 gears and 5,000 rpm can’t be good for it. Yet 240,000 miles, spartan tuned between 210-350hp since it had 42,000 miles. Dragging my construction trailer daily, skid steer on a gooseneck... all while being to lazy to turn the tuning down. Every diesel made is doggy compared to the sequential boosted 6.4. I’ve had 2 Duramax trucks, had a 7.3 with ZF6, currently have a 6.0 and the 6.4. Cummins are only impressive for 10’ after that there’s no comparison to V8s in GM and Ford. So I’m definitely confused on your response unless you were around some detuned company truck
You never delete the EGR valve if you still have a catalytic converter. The EGR valve is what keeps that thing from getting red hot. I expect that first cat in line got damn hot and was the cause of all of this.
All 6.4's need to catch on fire.
Just neglect. Fix ur truck when it breaks!!! Simple. Could of avoided thousands of dollars
6.4 is a throw away motor. Not built strong enough...too complicated to work on too.
the 6.4 is a amazing motor...when its working. that is the current issue. We have figured oyut how to get the 6ohs back up and running for a long time but now we need to do that with the 6fo
a 6.4 should have had a salvage title from the factory... and hey you are breaking federal law and it backfired... rofl...
sinister diesel is trash. you pay top dollar for crap engineering. now I'm $2,000 in the hole cus their block off plate broke causing my up pipe to crack
😂😢😂😂😂
this dudes a joke trying to copy powerstroke help. this trucks not totaled... CLICKBAIT
Benjamin Grieveson bull s*it that truck didn't get totaled!!! The insurance company totaled it due to potential wiring and cab heat deformation. Now run along and talk smack somewhere where they won't respond to you.
Trying to copy,,, you don't have a clue (of course,, unless you read it on the internet). Typical internet mechanic. Only joke is the fact that you have nothing better to do,, I expect nothing less from your type.
anthony don't lose your time answers to those guys, just go make an another vids man!!!
Shoulda bought a cummins
had nothing at all to do with the quality of the block off plate. Only the fact it should have been fully removed and deleted to avoid the cracked pipe. Stupid title to the video...make yourself look like a hack
I said that about the title in the video. You wanna be a "internet ninja"??? Talk smack all you want. Nobody said a freakin word about the block off plate quality btw. Looking like a hack??? I'm gonna go check you out right quick. It's funny when non producing busters try to talk smack. Let's see what you are doing.
You can be as mad as you wanna be, but I agree with him. I'm a pretty discerning RUclipsr, and have made plenty of videos. That title is pure clickbait and makes it sounds like the "cheap" EGR kit "TOTALS" the truck. Now if the title said "cheap EGR kit leaks", "cheap EGR kit rusts", etc, you'd be accurate. But the EGR kit had nothing to do with this failure. You could have had the same failure with a stock pipe. You're gonna "check someone out" right quick? What does that even mean? Are you going to look him up to see who he is, so you can insult him for his opinion? Are you gonna look him up to see if you can find where he lives and physically threaten him? You leave a lot open to interpretation there, buddy. You work on diesels, so I'm guessing you're 6 feet tall and bulletproof, right?. Stop acting like an ass and consider that the title of your video is VERY misleading.
The title is 100 percent correct that she delete blocked proper cooling in that pipe causing it to overheat that metal. You guys must be sinister diesel but riders they sell it you buy it
Heat had nothing to do with it. Blocking the pipe eliminates the flow. No flow, no heat. Vibration is what broke it.
Junk
