Just want to say 'thanks'. Guys like you showing this content pushed me over the edge. I bought two derelict 7.3s and I'm going to tear them down and rebuild one. I couldn't do it without guys like you. Keep the content coming...guys like me watch everything (over and over)!
You are right on the fuel bowl heater. 15years ago I had a no run problem . And it was a heater wire break in the fuel bowl
Looking forward to the follow-up segment on how to scan the pre-OBDII 7.3's.
Great info. I can speak from experience about the wiring harness. I have an '02 Excursion I owned for about a month, and it just died on the highway. I had my mechanic come out, and verified a fuse was bad (can't remember which one). Looked under the hood and there were wires that had broken, gotten brittle from the heat of the motor, and shorted out. Make sure to get Motorcraft OEM parts. Riffraff has them straight from Ford. At the time, was over $200 cheaper than the dealer.
16:00 you're right all these new cars are built different. My 2017 f350 comes equipped with blinker fluid! Meanwhile my 7.3 excursion is like back in my days we didn't have time to deal with that BS!
Thank you for answering my first question on business locations. Your the first and only U Tuber that has ever done that. Im impressed. Thanks again.
Clint, great starter video for us noobies. I bought my 2001 E350 about six years ago from the original owner with 87k. I couldn’t understand why he sold me a van that he paid an extra 5 grand for the 7.3 and replaced it with a gasser. After several months of ownership I decided to take a long trip. Twelve hours into the trip the torque converter unlocked and wouldn’t re-lock until the van set for an extended period of time. This occurred throughout the trip and as a result resulted in a trans rebuild at the end of the trip since I was towing. The problem reoccurred after the rebuild and several different diesel and transmission mechanics later the problem still persisted as no codes presented themselves. As usual one of the IDM banks eventually failed and so I sent the IDM and the PCM to Diesel Technologies of Chattanooga since they have a test bench. The PCM was found to have an intermittent voltage change in the altitude sensor. Both the IDM and PCM were repaired and the torque converter now locks and stays locked. I believe the original owner may have had this problem when he bought the van new. Have you ever seen this condition before? Thanks again.
I have never seen the baro go bad in a post 99 that is so rare But that being said I have found voltage issues in the pcm's (Rare) I'm surprised it took so long to find A good quality scanner would alert to voltage differences.
@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD PS. On you advice I bit the bullet and ordered a new wiring harness.
Appreciate all the advice. Based on your suggestion, I am replacing the engine wire harness next week and eager to see how shes runs after. The wires on the driver side that hang over the valve cover are looking iffy.
I wish I had one tenth the knowledge you have of these trucks. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
So glad your straight shooter sir and no beating around the bush you have helped me a lot
Just discovered your channel, love it!! I bought and am bringing back to life an 02’ 7.3 that sat under a tree for a few years. Best thing is that the farm had cats all over, no rodent damage!!! Only has 100k on the odo and it’s in such good condition. I’ve rebuilt suspension, put a redhead steering gear in, replaced a bad VSM, wheels & tires, water pump, wheel bearing, and brakes. Thinking I should do oil cooler seals soon to get it done. Having a great time with this one. Can’t wait for that scan tool video. I was bummed when I figured out my blue driver scan tool won’t work. In the market for something that’s nice and works, but I don’t need to spend snap on money since I won’t use it everyday. So I’m curious what your opinion is.
We have been testing products that are affordable and have yet to find one that works the current conclusion is scanners that are at the 6 to 700 dollar range so far
@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD well in that case looking forward to hearing the verdict on what you recommend!

I appreciate that!
@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD your welcome look forward to seeing some more i love these engines i love learning about them. so thank you
Love your channel!!!! As a new powerstroke owner, your information is invaluable. Thanks so much. Definitely a new subscriber here.
Thank you Sir, for all your helpful information! I take notes! I'm looking forward to your video on OBD scanners, because "I can't get no satisfaction".
I'm fix'n to replace the wiring harness, based on your good advice. Keep up the good work!
Another great video, Clint! I like your Stiction plan. Been staying away from it cuz it sounds like you have to be on this constant maintenance plan that’s a pain in the rear, but your recommendation couldn’t be more straight forward. Thank you!!!
HotShot is worth every penny. Started using it 10 years ago. 2001 with 450K and never replaced injectors, did replace all O-rings at 300K.
Great video, thanks. I’m a new 7.3 owner and found it very helpful.
I once freaked out with my 96 that died on the road, tried FORScan and all, then checked my empty fuel bowl like a pump, really. As I sat in the cab about to make some calls, and then it caught my eye, gauge on E. Flipped tanks and it was magical.
Funny how quickly we jump into advanced mode on the system and assume sometimes.
Your channel is where I run to diagnose my 97 7.3 but still Crank no start no smoke. I’ve changed Ipr, cps, icp. Ohms tested idm connection to injectors and glow plugs they’re exactly where they’re supposed to. Hpop and fuel pressures are where they’re supposed to. GP solenoid tested good. Check light comes on and off as supposed to, no codes either. Crank sounds strong and consistent but with no combustion whatsoever… would my last resort be to send idm and pcm out to test?
This is where I am
@@justicebruno5249 I rarely have time to work on my truck but last week I found out my LPOP wasn’t getting oil up into the HPOP, might wanna go that route

Thanks Clint, I found your site when researching Turbo Orings leaking. Will be digging in to the leaking Turbo soon. I learned a great deal from your video.
This one two helps understand some of the problems and steps.
I know you have been asked before, but can you give us a clue where you live? I guessing Calif or AZ. Am I close?
Also , what wiring harness do you recomend for upgrading and replacing the old one?
Keep those videos coming, Thanks.
Thanks brother for the information really good, and as my dad would say if you can’t work on it you shouldn’t be driving it because let’s face it theses trucks will treat you as you treat them …. Oooh how true
No doubt
Your dad rocks
Very informative! Thanks for your time and expertise!
Glad it was helpful!
What scanner do I need for my 1995 f250?
Recently got my first 7.3, and have been writing this info down. Also highly recommend buying the actual factory service Manuals ( not chilton manuals but actual service manuals, couple k pages)
Iv got the PDFs if anyone needs
Nice video bud. I learned a few things. Looking fwd to the following 7.3L videos. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
Thanks again!! Took your advice from a previous video and got a new harness.
Excellent!
Yep... common sense diagnostics, lol ..works for gas driven rigs too..
Good video advice.
Thanx
Thank you very much.what is the proper way to delete the fuel bole heater 99 7.3
Have a 97 7.3 automatic, sounds like I have a fuel knock. Had a compression test done. Cylinder 6 has low compression. Replaced that injector. Tick/knock still there and still low compression in cylinder 6. Push rod and rocker is fine. I’m stumped, any help is greatly appreciated
I have a 98 box van that I want to convert to a RV . Will follow your videos and good advice for clarity sake. Please recommend a scanner or two. As a Southern Redneck , I have to say “ huh? - wut dee saAh “ ? When you blurt the word “ O Rings “. Other than that you are flawless. Thanks for your efforts to share.
What an Alpha male !
Thabks again, being the pcm and any other of the modules do you think the capacitors could be at their experation date? I cracked up a gm module on the 95 840 due to eletrical issues i was experience. I replaced all the capacitors and most of the issues i was dealing with went away. Would any of that cause issues with these trucks?
Thanks for the video. Always good to start with the basics. What town are you in? I live in Duluth, MN. and am looking for a mechanic for my 02 F-250 Just changed glow plugs and wire harness. Your videos have helped me a bunch. Thanks again.
I'm listed in the SEMA Diesel Customize rs Guide But I'm booked a little over 2 years out now The Guide also shows several of our creations
My 97 7.3 5 speed and I changed the icp sensor and now the acceleration is sluggish but I left off and it picks up but past quarter throttle to full throttle is doesn't really get up and go like it should and I have a edge 6 ps switch and turn on stock it helps but still same thing cleaned the ipr valve and new orings and new fuel filter (started doing this after the icp sensor) about to put a new hpop in it but idk if it's that
So i have a question.. Ive been searching and cant find an answer. 1995 just did a 97 motor swap. Runs great but now its cold. Truck wont start. Been through 4 glow plug relays and new glowplugs installed. I have power at the constant hot pole. The small key on hot gets hot when the key is on. I never get power to the other large pole. Ive looked for grounds. Not sure if its an computer issue. I did put a new oil temp sensor in her. I'm at a loss and hard for me to believe 4 relays in a row are bad. Any thoughts or advice is greatly appreciated sir. Keep doing what you are doing. Your videos are amazingly helpful
I have 2 7.3 diesels, a 2001 which isn't running (we will get to that later) and 2002 that is running rough. I heard you talking about OBD code readers. Which brands do you suggest? I am disabled with not a lot of money but know that this is the only vehicle I can drive at this time. I just found your informational you tube channel and so far I have learned more than I think I can handle, but I will be trying to do the work myself. Thank you and God Bless
get this for your phone app amzn.to/46KIvu9 and get the app for your phone in the ggogle play store its free or for like 5 bucks you can get the upgraded forscan forscan.org/home.html With both of these you can get codes and do tests

Thank you too
Hi Clint, just discovered your channel and appreciate your sharing of knowledge on the 7.3. I have a 95 f-250 7.3 with 249,000 miles. Last week while on a trip it developed a starting problem. It cranks over probably 7-10 sec before starting, once started it runs fine. Before this developed it would start imediately when warm. Any suggestions what to look for? I changed fuel, air filters before vacation. Being a 95 its obd 1. thanks in advance, Alan
Reasons for hot long cranks,, Low or old oil - failing fuel pump- failing ICP - plugged EBP ///// highest probability Failing IPR there is no real way of testing this with out plugging into the pcm then the 2nd is a injector has a failing oil seal this can be visually checked by pulling the valve covers and watching the base of the injectors for oil spray when hot and a extra person is cranking the engine since its just starting it will be hard to spot
@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD Thank you Clint, that gives me somewhere to start. The oil was last changed last year but only 1500 miles put on it. It set most of the winter months with ocasional running. The 1500 was mostly hard pulling. There's no diesel mechanics here in the middle of nowhere so I have to learn to do it myself..thanks again, Alan
@@alanwilson2897 with that added info try this first Hot Shot's Secret Pick-Up Prevention Pack 48 Fluid Ounces (PUPP) here is the link so you know which package amzn.to/3Q4ADug after adding run the truck regularly after 300 to 500 miles if it doesnt clear up go to plan A
Great video, you tough me a lot
I have watched several of your videos and understand what all needs to be done. I guess I am asking what should I ask or tell the mechanic to do first without sounding like I don't know anything about diesels being a woman? If you know of any reputable mechanics in Montgomery county Texas please let me know. I am very paranoid about being taken advantage of when it comes to my trucks. Thanks and God Bless
Find a actual diesel mechanic first, even if its a further drive and ask questions like have they worked on 7.3's 6.0's and CAT engines Then if the engine runs good no issues, Have new injector O rings installed just the exterior O rings not a rebuild and new under valve cover harness these are what connect the external engine harness to the under valve cover harness This will be the most expensive pre maintenance work to be done and the most important That way if there ever is a running issue in the future there is no guess work and it would be a external of engine issue, later on if the ICP, CAM sensor and IPR are original have those replaced new FORD OEM ONLY and you have the top potential issues handled and should be able to care free drive 100 k's of enjoyment
Thanks Clint you put out the absolute best videos and information. Losing my mind and going broke on this in alaska lol.

7.3 POWERSTROKE COMMON AND RARE OIL LEAKS IN VALLEY
ruclips.net/video/eJem01byfBI/видео.html
remove the hpop reserve tank clean it all out install new seals and below is probable where the leak is coming from get that sealed up The fresher oil vs old oil is not a rare phenomena on a PSD of that year the seal leaks on a new oil change and later seals up
There are so many oils advertised as synthetic oils that are not True synthetic oils.
FTC allowed a change in oil classification allowing petroleum oil to be called synthetic, tier 4.
Tier 5 are the true synthetic oils.
Few are tier 5. Amsoil is one of them
Their diesel oil is far more thermally stable than petroleum oils.
Royal P and the others aren't.
40 + years in the heavy equipment and truck repair/ service business, used Amsoil on my equipment and on fleet, farm, construction companies from the Desert Southwest to the mountains of BC Canada where they know cold.
Never had any issues with Amsoil.
Cpl years back i had a 6oh come in on tow truck. Would not run. Pulled air cleaner out. COMPLETELY CLOGGED!! I MEAN worse than that pic you showed. But removed it. Fired right up. Unbelievable.. some people..
Same here man. Like ½ thick on bottom. Poor truck. I put filter in. Fired right up.
Thank you
Great video, here's an easy question 😁
What have you found to be the best solution to removing oil/diesel on your engine?
?
hot simply green or purple power , warm engine up so the temp gauge just starts to move turn off then pour with a flower water r the one with the big water head let soak and rinse water hose
@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD ok, for future,(to late on starting it up this time😁 already tore it apart )
@@andrewdurfee2891 get a 55 gallon metal drum pour 5 gallons of previously mentioned and fill 2/3 water get a lp tank and heater for under it use bricks to elevate
@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD great! Thank you 🤗
I didn't see where your located , but i live in Northern Mich. 😖& The Brine substance they spread on the road is just a mess to work on vehicles, everything is rusted BAD , already had to replace the fuel neck/& am currently trying to replace the oil pan 😖
The1st thing i noticed when i looked @ the turbo is the nipple on the top right side is completely rusted off & line was just laying in there,( I'm not very familiar with these yet as i mentioned) i tried to tap where the nipple was previously so i could rethread a nipple & opoxy it back on there , but my tap broke🙄so i have to take it to a shop to see if they have a ³/16 tap removal tool , it's a mess/ my friend that owns a shop said i probably need to change out the "rear main seal" as well while I'm trying to fix all the leaks?

Question what does the fuel pressure damper do
I have a 1997 Ford F350 with a 7.3 that has that in back of the fuel pump and it’s leaking Fuel I know I need to replace it but I want to know the purpose? Of this part now my 1996 Super Duty with a 7.3 dose not have it was that installed only for one year
thats my experience with k&n filters... nothing filters like paper.
Good Sir, when you are showing diagrams with locations for these sensors and such, could you do so and not be in middle of the pictures? Please.
what code reader do you use? I have a 1995 250 7.3. I have a innova 6100P reader but it is setup for OBD 2
Where can I get a good quality harness for the top of the motor?? Also I have a international 4700 with the t444e so you think the harness is the same??thanks
Can you recommend a scanner for 94 to 97 obs 7.3l engines?
We are working on a scanner video coming soon
Thank you.
Clint, Any recommendation on where to obtain a pcm 02 f350 psd
Thank you!
Have 1995 7.3 automatic. No cold start in 70 degree weather. If i plug heater in for couple hours truck starts instantly. Glow plug relay clicks and terminals become hot like plugs are drawing current yet no cold start .
Watched your videos and have replaced icp and ebp sensors. Replaced cam sensor less than one thousand miles ago. Any suggestions suggestions.
remove the valve cover harness connection make sure that isn't baked , check the outer pins for glow plug ohms each should be around 1 ohm and check the under valve cover harness start with these tests and checks first / fuel pressure and batteries and starter are also the cause of this issue getting the engine hot from plugging in makes it easier to start
You're very knowledgeable so I'll throw you a question. Are coolant filters a good idea for a 7.3 powerstroke? Thanks sir
We ran a test many years ago on 3 powerstrokes in my fleet Ran them for 1 year 97 OBS 2000 and 2002 after that year we removed and cut them apart only the 2002 had tiny minimal metal flakes in it So that left me with the fact its unnecessary unless you never flush and refill with new fluid every few years or had a rebuild

I'm looking for help on a p1219 code being thrown and I need opinions on this code should I replace the wiring harness from the pcm to the idm?
There is no look here kind of answer, It is a step by step diagnosis, it could be the injector solenoid bad or grounding out, the under the valve cover harness or the engine wire harness or computer wire harness, All wires need to be checked and tested along with connectors also the IDM and ECM need to have a function test done to see if anything is bad or fried. Start at the IDM and confirm thats working you will need a bid p1219 bidirectional scanner for that like this one amzn.to/44Ivsbg and you will need to down load the diesel app (real easy) Then you can check the ECM or take to a diesel shop who can perform the test or send out the IDM ECM for testing just look on line for someone close Next each wire and connector needs to be check disconnect both sides of the wire harness and run a 12 volt test through each wire to a light 12v ground the light then bend and jiggle each wire to see if broke and check for rub through
Nice video sir I was just wondering why when you have low fuel pressure the engine computer sets a map code?
vacuum to the MAP is out of range to the other sensors The computer has no clue fuel pressure is low so it can't compensate the other sensors
Another question
I recently bought my 1st diesel last year(03' F250/7.3) & I'm not very familiar with them @ all yet, my friend from church also has one , he bought his brand new back in 02' (he's retired from Ford now)
He was telling me back when he 1st got it new just after the warranty ran out (of course) he said an injector broke in halfe & went through one of his cylinders & messed it up bad(over8k damage) have you heard of that B4 with these 7.3 ?
Yes the injector tip can break on any injector yet its so rare If it hasn't happen it won't

Speaking of diagnosis… can you help me out?? I was driving one day down a bumpy road with cruise control then bam! All of a sudden I lose CC and haven’t been able to use it since! Changed all the “ brake switches”, everyone recommends and still nothing.
Ripped open the differential and looked at the abs tone ring, nothing.
Changed Vss, nothing.
Upgraded booster brake switch, nothing.
Any ideas??
My abs light is on if that helps.
Please and thank you!
Assuming 99.5 to 2003
Cruise control module? On your truck, that's the PCM.
The VSS sensor on the differential has nothing to do with ignition and fueling. It just measures the speed of the rear axle and reports that to the ABS module, which then sends that info to the speedometer. Don't look there.
Here are the items that will affect the cruise control
The switches on the steering wheel - They're on different circuits than the air bag, so the air bag light isn't a good indicator. The horn also uses a different circuit.
The brake pedal position switch
The brake pressure switch on the nose of the master cylinder
The parking brake switch - Is the brake light on when you push the pedal down? If not the switch may be hanging up and the circuit is always hot but the bulb is burnt out. That would deactivate the cruise function.
The Digital Transmission Range Switch on the auto tranny, or the clutch pedal position switch on a manual tranny truck.
If you can get hold of a scan tool that is PowerStroke compatible, you can run the KOER switch test, activating all the switches during the test cycle - the cruise buttons, mash the brake pedal, clutch pedal, accelerator pedal, parking brake, etc. It will report back if a switch fails to change state.
The clock spring in the steering wheel could be at fault, but the KOER switch test will point you at that if it is.
I have seen O.D. issues that turned out the be wiring short or broken wires in the two leads going through the handle the overdrive switch is in, on the steering column.
@@orcoastgreenman I found the problem… pissed me off when I found it.
I swapped the brake switch a year ago, with a crap autozone one just to get the break lights working because I had to pull a trailer right away.
Swapped it for a motorcraft one last week abs boom! Worked right away 🤦🏽♂️
So, yes, as always, only buy motorcraft.

Mr. Clint, what does your experience say about the banks ram air system? If it’s good, would you recommend a dry or oiled filter? I’m not sure the manufacturer of the actual filter element. Don’t know if banks makes it or if it’s contracted out to another company. Thank you Sir.

Clint, you mentioned the air filter for these trucks. Which do you recommend as being the best for these engines?
If you are using the factory air get a WIX it tests top quality. See one of the many tests ruclips.net/video/sJ3L-E-ufYo/видео.html This guy does a excellent job testing My recommendation didn't come from here just years of in truck results but his video confirms what I've learned through experience

@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD wix makes the 46637. But adding this massive air filter means you're now pulling in hot engine bay air. Would you pass on this large filter on a 7.3?

Not with out being able to be there So do your basics- codes , fuses, fuel pump, fuel getting to bowl, oil in hpop , sensors connected, pull connector off ICP try start, remove ICP see if oil shoots out when cranking if you dont have oil pressure gauge to hook to head , inject air pressure into head to see if a o ring went out on a injector Go back to the videos that cover the no start or where to start . One of the components that are attached to the engine gave up now its just a matter of elimination

no ,, follow these 2 ruclips.net/video/ZJ5BSBntTzA/видео.html or ruclips.net/video/6vQ9Jh0Jxhc/видео.html

What about radio n windows stop working till u beat the steering wheel then comes back on lol ?
Haven't seen this issue ever before in a SD but GM is real good for this usually find the problem in a bad connector loose or corroded or fuse box connection or fuse connection got loose and burned or ground loose or corroded
I live in Minnesota. Is your shop in the midwest?
We have to follow You Tube guide lines and can't share that at this point and we are booked almost 2 years out Our bread n butter is direct technical to auto mfg's When they can't figure out a issue we do We developed the fix for instance on the Ford 8 speed trans shutter
Fuel pump not operating, moved ecu, suddenly died. Would ecu be cactus?
what year and any tuners
I have a 1995 f250 diesel 7.3 i runs for 20 minutes and hot engine light comes on and truck dies what could it be
fluid,blocked radiator,cooling fan.thermostat, w pump, blocked oil cooler, blown head gasket, injector cups, computer codes ?
Do you have this check list available in writing?
Not yet we are working on a quick ref guide
Hello Clint... I have a very decent running 7.3 96.5 model. But I want more from it... Can I have your email to discuss some options.
This is what I do in our fleet when we add a new truck. high volume lpop and hpop valve cover gaskets and wires sump at tank and filter between that and pump new sensors new gaskets at exhaust manifold new up pipes ball bearing turbo new boots and upgrade electrical wires from alternator and batteries n starter , dual ccv like in my other video
If you want more power the above still needs to be done you can install larger injectors, there are many larger turbo options on the market and tuners But I look for longevity and the more HP you add in parts mean more issues later on keep in mind
Something even worse than K&N are large rodents such as rats, chipmunks or squirrels setting up a nest in the air box.
In one day they can chew all of the filter medium right down to the screen and you ARE going to get dusted.
All of our trucks and cars have 1/2" hardware cloth screen blocking the air horns.
Been there and that sucks Hey
Just a note - 1/2" doesn't keep mice out.
My truck will go into high idle even when it’s hot can you help me
Start here:First question is: Do your Brake lights work? And, your Parking Brake Light on the dash. Either should disable the fast idle.
Second, try disconnecting both the EVB Tube Sensor and EBPV Plug.
Third, check your MAP hose for a loose connection or hole.
Lastly, monitor Sensor Voltage rather than values.
BARO: 5 Volt Reference Circuit, @ 4.6 volts / 14.7 psig at sea level, decreasing as altitude increases.
EBP: 5.0 volts Reference Circuit, 0.8-1.0 vdc / 14.7 psig
EOT: 5 Volt Reference Circuit, 4.37 vdc @ 32°F, 1.37volts @ 176°F, 0.96volts @ 205°F.
IAT: 5 Volt Reference Circuit, 3.897 vdc @ 32°F, 3.09 @ 68°F, 1.72 @ 122°F.
check electrical shorts or broke wires
The only thing ive learned is i need to get rid of this 7.3. Currently dealing with a crank no start, no smoke on mine. All ive heard is "well, could be one of 10,000 differrent things and you'll need special tools to diognose it." Then when you find out what it is, its either a $500 harness, $450 ipr, $450 idm ect. And they're all ticking time bombs. Its amazing how complicated they managed to make this motor while sacrificing ease of repair ar every corner
K&N air filters are trash
My friend has 5000 dollar snap on scan tool he hooked it to mine 😂😂 i could got the same result from a tree stump.
Like any other scanner some need to be updated or a program added to access all ECM PIDS Snap On updates and upgrades are usually free
