I have always been wary of using a pressure washer in an engine bay but you have inspired me. I think I will attempt it......first on my wife's car. ;-)
😂
Check out all the tools and parts I use in my Amazon Garage and the Osmo Pocket I record with.

2 gallon pump of sprayer pour in 1 gallon of ZEP industrial degreaser buy at lowes stores chemical isle use a round up sprayer or wont last put 1 gallon of water in slowly to keep from foaming or add ZEP to the gallon of water easier to prevent foaming, screw on lid pump up hose engine down through every inch, let it soak 10 minutes reapply a second coat 10 minutes again the pressure wash and you will not beleive how damn clean your truck comes, itll blow you away this procedure will not hurt fuse blocks, or alternators etc I use it monthly on tons of trucks sn it makes shit mess trucks look new on engines an I use it on under body, differentials transmissions etc works amazing you have to tray it, wear a mask it will burn your nose and eyes and wear chemical gloves, it is safe for environment ones its diluted during power washing, if I get tons of water into a fuse block it I use a compressed are to blow them out jack your truck up pull front tires off try the zep on the front suspension it works well, no brushing or tooth brush required this solution does the work for you big time!!!

I just picked up a 99 250 7.3 from Copart for $4K. I was worried about washing the engine until I found this video! Thank you!
You got it buddy, yea was watching your vids, 7.3s are beasts if taken care. Go to my f350 7.3 playlist I got. Tons of recent vids on mods and stuff maybe some can help you. If gonna keep it for a while for your towing I can suggest of few good DIY mods
Nice job, thanks for the video on this, want to do same thing but was worried about spraying water into the engine compartment.
Came out looking pretty clean. Enjoy your videos. I would avoid ripping down the road without the engine being at operating temperature. One of the few ways to kill your 7.3 is hammering on it before its warmed up. Anything over 1800-1500 RPM's before at operating temp is bad news...
Yea true, I usually warm her up before pushing to hArd
Very nice, sir. I am really enjoying this series for the 7.3. you are covering all of the mods and upgrades, including cleaning, that a 7.3 owner who is consider. Well done...I subscribed.
Hi everybody. I want to recommend for cleaning industrial purple Power. It's nice working for cleaning engine. And carpet. But be careful with that stuff. It's very strong. Never live overnight cuz it's a good damage your carpet or material. You can buy at Homedepot.
K thx
Alli Boba something I found works great is “Awesome” from dollar tree. Stuff is great, eats oil, brake dust etc and doesn’t pit into aluminum or leave a chalky residue, not nearly as harmful of a smell as purple power. Should try that sometime, just says “Awesome” on the bottle, it’s yellow.
I think it's great that you translate your videos to Spanish, I have a 2011 Ford 4000 truck with Cummins 4bt engine and a Ford F100 model 2000 Cummins 4 bt engine too. Greetings from Corrientes Argentina
i have a 99f250 ive had for years growing up and im recently falling in love with it. looking to bring it back to power and even upgrade it if i can. glad i found your channel.
Love your videos I’m just getting in to fix my own 7.3 a 99 and 2001 right know I have a leak on the valley I believe it’s the main gasket for the hoop I’m changing some fuel lines and oil lines but it’s a mess I need to clean
That looks SO MUCH BETTER! One thing I noticed about your driving is that you actually turn all your lights on when it's raining. Thank you for being safe!
Beautiful truck, and great job bringing it back to life!
Thanks man, mods will be funner in Clean engine
Wanted to give a bit of insite on the 7.3l when you ever change the oilpan gasket just unbolt the cab bolts keep the doors closed and raise the cab a little then you can lift the moter just enough to take the oil pan off its a pain but better then removing the whole cab amd engine for it also monroso makes a rubber gasket for the oil pan thats so much better then using rtv so just a quick tip
That back and forth was awesome don’t know how you made it do that😂😂
A cheapie paintbrush would work faster than the toothbrush
P Rose, totally agree. I use one with half the bristles cut off for "scrubbing", and a full one for cleaning into the nooks and crannies. You can also dip them into some degreaser for extra cleaning.
Hello Nick. I enjoy your videos, wish I had your mechanical skills. As far as wash/detail engine bay, I use ziplock bags and ties to cover things like your uncovered fuse box. Just be careful when you remove them that any accumulated water doesn't get on unwanted parts. Also, as you know, there are many auto detailers on youtube that you can watch. The information they provide is great and FREE! By the way, if you ever want to sell the Ford, please keep me in mind, I'm looking for something like that to haul a 5th wheel for my wife and kids! Paul
wow. Anyone who wants to do this, at the very least disconnect the batteries. I would cover the fuse box, remove batteries, and wrap the alternator in a plastic bag
Looks good ! Thanks for posting. I use a parts washing brush with good results and it's easy to use.
That exposed fuse box scares me.
Nice work the best part of the video was your kids racing 🤣🤣 Good idea on the racetrack for them that was cool keep up the good work Thanks Bro 😎
That race was awsome 😊
If you take the foil of the intercooler pipe you’ll be able to here the turbo a little more
The cutest family ever
You should use a air compressor or a leaf blower to dry the engine. Never heat the water up to dry it's not good for the motor
Great idea and information! Thank you!
Cool I have the 01 F350 7.3L 4WD Crew Cab Lariat with the SRW rear wheels. My engine looks just like yours, dirty, well you're was dirty, mine still is. I've been wondering if those items worked, and it looks like it did a pretty good job. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
Yea it worked well, I just now cleaned it even more and I’m happy
I have the same EXACT truck, love them so much
Yess! I've been waiting for this one! Will attempt to do on my 7.3....
Definitely 100 times better bro👏👏👏 great to see the kids
I need to fix their dirt bikes lol
@@FixItNick there is always loads to do buddy, I got a notebook and wrote all the jobs I have down..... Filled it but at least they are out of my thoughts 😉 ish....... 😂
Don’t use degreasers on plastic stuff. It causes it to crack over time
nice and clean. the foal thing is for heat resistance so you should keep it.
Looks like crap tho, was thinking maybe to wrap it
Great video on how not to back into the driveway
One thing I prefer on my 97 7.3 is the rad tank isn't out front like the later body ones, and just being nosy but what are all the bricks for?
What about the fuse box cover!😂🎉
Going to try this today 😈
Avoid spraying electronics and plugs
ChrisFix does a great video on this subject. For an initial clean, this is fine (I use a dedicated toilet brush)....after that, a dry "preclean" and following up with one of those pump sprayers (diluted degreaser) will do very well.
Chris also removes the battery which is a smart idea. That way nothing shorts out.
Yup I just wanted to do all that build up junk off. Battery would be good idea to remove also, when I’ll be doing more tear down deeper I’ll be doing more cleaning behind all the pipes and wires bellow in the valley is usually a huge swamp lol
I really should have filmed the before of my engine, going to power wash tomorrow. It’s horribly gunky the ccv has went afoul and I probably have a few other leaks, hoping the after part of my cleaning looks somewhat like yours
Looks pretty good
Nick I'm interested in 7.3 what do you think
I have a 2000 F350 I've never cleaned the engine compartment it's never looked that dirty the trucks look almost identical
2 gallon pump of sprayer pour in 1 gallon of ZEP industrial degreaser buy at lowes stores chemical isle use a round up sprayer or wont last put 1 gallon of water in slowly to keep from foaming or add ZEP to the gallon of water easier to prevent foaming, screw on lid pump up hose engine down through every inch, let it soak 10 minutes reapply a second coat 10 minutes again the pressure wash and you will not beleive how damn clean your truck comes, itll blow you away this procedure will not hurt fuse blocks, or alternators etc I use it monthly on tons of trucks sn it makes shit mess trucks look new on engines an I use it on under body, differentials transmissions etc works amazing you have to tray it, wear a mask it will burn your nose and eyes and wear chemical gloves, it is safe for environment ones its diluted during power washing, if I get tons of water into a fuse block it I use a compressed are to blow them out jack your truck up pull front tires off try the zep on the front suspension it works well, no brushing or tooth brush required this solution does the work for you big time!!! Use white nozzle for jobs like engines etc oh and nick dressing is not God for the jacketing on the wires of the harnesses, or also detorarates rubber, like hoses, rubber silicon, plastics ac hoses etc, bolts never use dressing or shiny stuff to detail an engine zep is an acid base sn will not hard plastics or rubbers sn nor metal once rinses thoroughly, I've been doing it for 5 plus years on my personal vehicals they look near under the hood, and underneath the body even the frames
I like this car
Thx
Looks much better.
Looks great!
You do masonry work?
Ccv mod pushes oil out turbo
Is your truck a short bed
Were you able to find a replacement cover for the fuse box?
I got a new one from an auto yard dismantler, just took it off and replaced my broken one
Pressure washing wont harm the motor shouldnt harm the electronics either even if you spray the fuse box as long as you dont drive it while the fuses are wet you should be fine but doing it your way was a hole lost safer for the fuses and wiring
Yup plugs are weather proof, fuse box is critical,
Wow! Thank you for this..
Thanks for watching
What engine she has?
7.3L powerstroke
Have you replaced the bulbs on the OE fog lights?
Yes I did
@@FixItNick do you have a video of you doing it?I can't figure out how to get into the lights.
pregunto no se mucho ingles Nik tengo una troka F350 la luz del overdrive blinkin la luz cambia la velocidad cuando pucho el botón
I still want to buy that Truck when you are finished....
rubbing is racing nick! i just use a pressure washer under the hood. i find it works very well without any chemicals. i use the widest angle tip. i may have a fuse box cover for that truck. i would expect 13 mpg out of that truck stock.
How much you want for that cover, I’ll DM you on instagram :) MPG results coming soon
I wish you would’ve cleaned the bottom of the hood too. Engine bay looks good
I was like, I should sprayed hood too to wash it, to late now, might take it off to do it lol
FixItNick is the steering cylinder boot ripped? I thought I saw that in the water pump video
I feel like that would be a bad idea since it's more of a felt type material.
Like seeing your Little One's RACING Hopefully Future Gear Heads/ Racers !
I hope so too race with dad :))
Who won the race,lol. Great video
Looks good
Thx
what does he do for a living, he has everything
i wouldnt count a 20 year old truck as everything
nice car mai fred its very cleen now
Can you pressure wash the 6.0?
Just cover. Few computer things with a plastic bag
U can use turtle wax tire foam for the black areas to make it shine good only like $2 and it’s say for battery and alternator.
Didn’t know title wax made tire foam spray
What are the kids driving now?
18v cars lol
Dont spray the alternator. Sprays the alternator 🤔
Nah I avoided the alternator best I could lol
Rubbins racin lol good job !
As a European Dude:
Why you don't clean with dry-ice ? 🤔
It's not expensive and absolut safe for mechanic, electric and electronic parts.
When you clean your engine with water, it's better when the engine are running all the time !!! After the cleaning don't turn off the engine for 10min. (because your style is like, Russian-Roulette between mechanic & water #Capillary_Effect )
Best regards from central Europe ✌️
Thanks, we actually don’t have any deice for sale in my area that I have seen. Basically I washed and then started the engine and let it run warm up and dry
Looks 150 times better then it did
Yes sir :)
Come fix my truck up two
No!! Lol I got enough to do
Better to leave your engine running.
Peep 60's mustang in the garage
Yea buddy 67
Just buy a replacement top for 40 something bucks Amazon
Be careful to not spray the icp. I learned the hard way. TWICE
Where is the ICP on these?
How much horsepower gain did you get after this? haha
7.3 torques
A brush really???
❤👑
Dont do the CCV mod. It blows turbo gaskets. Watch powerstrokehelp. He has a video on the CCV mod.
Nah not true, international made it to vent out not into Intake
Did you even watch the video? It explains why it blows seals.
I like bill but he’s not always right and there’s a TON of 7.3 owners who run ccv mod with no issue
Not true been venting under truck for last 6yrs about 80k mi no issues
Could done this vid in 5 min
Little miss NASCAR.... ;)
Haha yup
"I gotta get a neeeeooo one". " I used a heavy deeuty".What accent is this? Just curios!
Too hard to say, but he's definitely east Europe, my guess Russian/Bulgarian region with a 15 year American assimilation accent blend. Just my opinion.
@@rc9660 ...👌🏻
Don’t do the ccv mod you need the designed vacuum look up at powerstrokehelp.com
Nah it’s a good mod, international made it to vent
Been venting under truck for 8yrs now and I run it hard zero issues except no oil in my intercooler
If you ever take off your intercooler with 200k miles youl see lots of oil in it being pulled from ccv
Looks much much better! I actually just uploaded my foil delete video for my truck and I am very happy with it! Check it out. There are a few tips and tricks that I learned while doing it.

Thx bro will take a look, that foil looks like crap lol

My truck is better
What is the back ground music for ? Very annoying.
