    2003 6.0 rough and high idle

    The p0046 is for the vgt actuator, the 67x codes are glow plugs. Seems like there’s a lot of shit going on here. Check the harness where it runs under the turbo. Could be chafed there and have broken wires. Your first post said you replaced the harness, correct? Did you replace it with a new...

    2003 6.0 rough and high idle

    Is it kinda fuel knocky and real rough? Check your eot sensor. I’ve had quite a few that had broken lock tabs on them, and while I was doing a turbo or something it comes unplugged and runs terrible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    auxiliary water pump

    An, ok. The pump should just have 2 or 3 bolts that hold it to the lower fan shroud. Disconnect the hoses from it, yank it out. If you’re ditching the radiator for it too, that’s 1 bolt, and lift it up, it’ll slide out of the trans cooler or condenser bracket it’s slid into. Then pull the hoses...

    auxiliary water pump

    Why? Common rail systems develop a shit load of heat in the fuel, and need to be cooled somehow. Did you relocate the cooler or something? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    04 ex w/low hpop pressure

    I’ve got a theory this has to do with just the kits. Seems I’ve had better luck installing individual stand pipes and dummy tubes rather than the kit. Granted the kit is like 1/3-1/2 the price of doing them individually, but for the lack of headache someone can eat the cost. Hell I had the...

    Need a stage 1 5R

    I’d recommend either warren or twisted. Personally have a twisted in my truck, and like it. Haven’t run a warren, but heard very good things. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dana 60 front axle u-joints?

    Not at all. Wrench on a ring gear bolt towards the top of the housing, and a pry bar on a bottom tooth of the ring gear and it will kinda roll out. To put it in, a good heavy dead blow and some solid whacks and it’ll go back in. A dead blow won’t damage anything, as it’s plastic. You can also...

    Dana 60 front axle u-joints?

    Yeah, there are inner axle seals inside the axle tubes. They’re kind of a pain in the ass. Requires pulling the carrier, and I’ve only done it with the tool from ford, but I’m sure there’s a way to South African engineer it to install the new seals Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    07 6.0 a/c not accepting refrigerant

    Hey man, no offense meant, don’t know you from anyone. Lots of dumbasses post issues that are as simple as plug it in or something like that, so gotta double check the basics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    07 6.0 a/c not accepting refrigerant

    You were trying to charge thru the low side, correct? If so there are a few common reasons it won’t take any. 1-your source tank is empty, or lower pressure than the low side 2-you did open the hand valve when you installed the hose onto the service port, correct? Open is tightening it down...

    07 6.0 a/c not accepting refrigerant

    What is the pressure reading on the can when you’re trying to charge it? Also, have you used shit with stop leak in it before? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Corrupt minimax files?

    Sounds like an frp and under valve cover harness possibly, air in the fuel system still, shit hi pressure pump, basically what Sootie said. He’s pretty smrt when it comes to these. The icp too high engine off code leads me towards frp and uvc, but without having a scanner on it can’t tell ya for...

    6.7 head resurface

    He’s probably talking about preload on the lifters, but unless there’s a performance cam or something in it, it’s typically fine. Building an ls for the boss, and when he bought it it had jesel adjustable rockers with hydraulic lifters. It’s got a decent size cam in it, and the cam manufacturer...

    Trans slipping/shifting hard

    Map should move based on however much boost you’re making. And I think that’s what the map obd pid is on your list. It would actually be boost. So at 10 psi of boost, map should read around 24.8, and the map that reads 0 should be 10. If your map isn’t moving, check the hose for attachment to...

    Trans slipping/shifting hard

    Those are fine, they’re reading the same psi wise. Guessing you live at sea level, or damn near? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    tuner help

    I too would go with ez. Several good tuners out for them, and most will have some sort of “stock” tune you can load on. So you won’t need to have it flashed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Lift pump/high pressures issues

    We use air dogs at the shop. I like the install more than the fass, and every fass system I’ve done has needed a higher pressure spring to operate at the proper pressure with a regulated return. The air dog runs at 60ish no problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    6.7 head resurface

    Always just ran them down. I will say though, with there being 4 push rods and rockers per cylinder, after you get everything set, turn the motor over a couple times to make sure you didn’t miss a push rod. Ain’t much that’ll puss you off more on these than having to pull a valve cover off when...
