help with dpf sensors

[little luke]

Sorry Im not searching for this, but I'm kinda in a hurry. We are putting a dpf delete exhaust on a buddies 2008 f250. we cant get any of the sensors to budge. any advise or tips on getting these things out? or can they just be plugged? Thanks.

What type of programmer

We used a bunch of pb blaster and a pipe wrench.

Sct. Came from idp. He doesn't have custom tunes yet. But the race tune says it requires a PDF delete.

Crap, two came loose with alittle heat, the other two snapped half way out. New question, are these necessary or can they just be plugged?

They are needed. Is the sensor still intact?

Call RCD they have what you will need in stock and can get it to you fast.

Well saved two temp sensors and rigged up the pressure sensor. Still missing the sensor furthest back. He loaded the canned tune and no issues so far. He's going to have to order one temp sensor. The fitting broke in half in the dpf. Thanks for the replys.

Had the same issue with my last pyro sensor. I ended up leaving the stock ones in the stock pipe and buying 3 new ones for new exhaust i didnt feel like jacking with them more than i had to. If i remember correctly there 60 bucks at the dealer and my dealer stocks them i guess its a common issue.

Yeah, the truck is out of the drive way, so I'm guessing the owner will handle it from here. He is registered as Bigum here at psa
