Nice tip on the 17+ cooler core. Can you post the part number?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

I will!

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

The 17+ cooler cores are...HC3Z-9V425-A. You can use the same gasket kit as i showed!!

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Nope, not one!!!! Way more robust. More flow obviously, but im sure calibration fine tunes the flow precisely!!

[@rdp2370]

Powerstroke Tech Talk w/ARod, if you were replacing the cooler core on a 2012 which way would you go? Use the O.E. style or the 17?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

@@rdp2370 17 and up for sure

[@BlakeReed18]

Before I did my egr delete I sprayed seafoam's deep creep on all the bolts the night before, the morning of, and right before we started. Those two bolts at about 18 min mark literally loosened with one hand. That deep creep is absolutely amazing and I think you should try a bottle. Way better than WD-40.

[@mike-md]

ARod, I had this done a few years ago on my 2011 350, It took the dealer 6 months to clear up all the service engine light that kept coming back (they finally made it right). All I can say is you're the best!! I wish I was close enough to take advantage of your Knowledge and skills! By the way, I'm sure DT Ron gave you a smile and golf clap on this one! 😊 👏

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Rip DTR 👍🖐🤝😁

[@goodmanboattransport3441]

Right after I got my 12' f350 it tossed this code, got to looking at the problem and decided to clean the cooler right on the truck, some purple power, and an aluminum tig rod, rodded down the tubes, rinsed the garbage out with water, and put back together except the exhaust tube, fired up the engine to blow out residual water, which was minimal, and finished the assembly. So, she was plugged up at 94k miles, I drove to 370k with no problem since. My truck was the victim of long idle hours, I'm sure that was the problem with the blockage.

[@WaterandWoodsmen]

Glad I don’t have one of those soot loading Is almost non existent now I changed my oil with 7K it’s nice and clean thanks for the video one of my favorite channels

[@laithalhabbash9867]

Hey man, I love watching your videos on the Ford Diesels. Been binge watching your videos on these things here on my day off. I’m a former tech now service advisor at a GM dealership and honestly never really worked on any Fords. We always been oh that’s a ford blah but myself being younger than my counterparts, I do like to broaden my horizons on what I work on. I gotta say, watching your videos makes me be like well that ain’t too bad think I’ll tackle Fords on my side stuff. Heck, I’ve never owned a Ford and now I’m kinda thinking of getting a 05-07 6.0 to start! Like I said I love my GMs but dude you got my mind changed on how I think of the Fords! Stay safe man look forward to your next videos!

Thanks so much my man. Work on Fords all day...but my garage queen is an 07 blown cammed Tahoe.....i want a duty so bad tho 😍

I Really admire your craft and patience. I just recently retired and I will have to unload my 1 owner F350 SD 90k mi, I honestly don't want to be dealing with these MAJOR repairs. I'm done, I'm going to a Tundra and not having to worry about this anymore. This scares the crap out of me. If I knew techs like yourself, I'd consider not unloading it however you have NO IDEA what I've dealt with these last few years, a Nightmare to say the least. Thanks for enlighting, I don't need the stress and enjoy my retirement. Adios.

Don't get me wrong, I love my f350 however I'm actually worried, i have no external warranty and have 90k on it, should i not be? The post i see all have had MAJOR repairs w a heavy repair pricetag. All dealerships and techs I've dealt with, ALL take for a ride, they scare the day lights out of me, no crap. My trucks looks and drives like new, I maintain it myself due to these shops I've dealt with. I'd seriously drive and bring my truck to you I'd needed without and hesitation or concern, you seem trustworthy and I'd bring my truck to.you. thank you.

[@claytonwhitman2611]

Well, I have just replaced my EGR cooler core. 2014 F-350 SWB SRW Platinum. I am still putting it back together and I wanted to take some notes while I am rewatching to make sure I don't forget anything. I unfortunately snapped the outboard EGR exhaust bolt (This is the one that usually snaps), and I got it part way out when it snapped. I used croil, and heat, working it back and forth, and it just finally let go. Tried welding a nut to the bolt, and it just wouldn't work, the titanium won't weld well with normal welding rod. And so I ended up overnighting a ProMaxx 6.7L EGR repair kit to drill and tap it out, from the good people at Freedom Racing Tool and Auto, LLC. IF you need a kit they overnight for about $60. BTW, very important: Buy spare drill bits for the larger sizes, just in case!! Especially if time is a factor. Drilling the titanium bolt is a lot like drilling a stainless bolt: you NEED slow RPMs, good steady pressure (but not too much, especially with the smallest bits, and with the largest bit. GO SLOW. You need to drill all the way to the depths that it calls for, or the threaded insert will not go in all the way. I also am using copper never seize (2000 F degree) on those damn bolts, And I am using a 2017 EGR cooler core. Next time the damn thing comes off, it will be a delete... !! Also, I can say I will be adding the CCV bypass/catch can (did you see the oil caking??), and a CP4 kit later this year (X-mas I think). So, anyone need a once-used EGR repair kit will a full set of new bits, and ofc the full set of once-used bits???

[@claytonwhitman2611]

Update: Its back running, fired right up. I had disconnected my batteries, and while hooking them back up, the lights and flashers sort of went crazy for a second. Startled the crap out of me. Fired right up, no rough idle. During idling, as it warmed up it went to a high idle, no big deal. I tried to keep an eye on coolant levels, and I may have been a little slow keeping the secondary loop topped off. The interior display threw the orange wrench icon at me, I had a pending code of engine air inlet temp too warm, cleared it, went away. After a while, the orange wrench came back, no code. I can clear it with my OBD2 reader, but then the wrench comes back after a minute. I am wondering if, since the batts were disconnected for so long, that all the data and memory is gone, its resetting itself? Is it safe enough to drive? I didn't have any codes except the P0401 before.... any ideas? I found that a couple of my intake bolts were loose, tightened them. Double checked everything else, everything tight and where it is supposed to be

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

We wld have to diag it.

[@claytonwhitman2611]

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Well, after I shut it off, I decided to chance it and I went and drove it around the block (6.5 miles is my country block lols), twice. NO WRENCH ICON. Remote started, 13 mile test drive A-OK. I will see how it goes, but looks good to me. MPG went up lols. My cooler insert was completely clogged. I also cleaned as much of the caked on oil/carbon from the intake manifold and ports as possible, vacuumed it all out. I will be doing the CCV kit and the CP04 kit later this year. Thanks ARod!! You make some really great videos. IF you ever need some highly technical welding advice, I am a Certified Welding Inspector.

A little tip on holding the upper intake bolts. Pull the bolt up and stick a zip tie down next to the bolt to hold it up.

At 75,000 miles my 21014 truck needed this done. Also had death wobble that dealer couldn’t figure out. Local tire store said steering was worn out. They replaced all steering components and realignment. Next, DEF heater failed. Now it has an emissions issue and only goes 50 mph. It also says engine over heat if I go more than 5 mikes from my house. The truck has only 108,000 miles and can’t use it. What a piece of junk. I hate the truck and have been driving a 1984 GMC with a 12 valve mechanical pump Cummins. At least I understand the old technology.

He did the cleaning (flushing?) process, but didn't remove/replace the egr cooler canister. the engine has run fine, code free, for about 4000 miles since.

Do you reccomend replacing the EGR valve as long as you have it taken apart to replace the cooler? I had a mechanic tell me it was essential to have the EGR valve replaced at the same time. I have watched several EGR cooler replacement videos and nobody was replacing the valve.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Ur mechanic is wrong...

Excellent video im getting this code now. Im afraid this might be beyond my mechanical no how tho.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Great Video! Would it be okay to use high temp never seize on the exhaust bolts or is that a no no?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

I did. I mentioned it in the vija

[@irishsavage8715]

I just left mine off😂😂😂

[@alfredriley3771]

Is it worth putting anti-seize on the bolts before you install back so if there is ever a problem you can take off eazy

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

I did, i mentioned it there in the vid

[@terrydtdi]

Have you ever used Aero Kroil for those pesky bolts. It’s an incredible penetrant.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Yea...man they gonna break they gonna break. Damned if you do damn if you dont. I do not remove the pipe any more....problem solved

[@jtlobster1234]

You said the 2017 core can be used in place of the earlier core, but do you need to change anything else? Do you still use the gasket kit for the 2011-2014?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Yes sir!!!!!

[@bryanmitchell5728]

Why would anybody put the smaller hold heat exchanger in if the big one will work? Also is this a normal part to go bad? And if so what mileage?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Read the comments....

[@westcoastoffroad]

How many idle hours vs run hours on this vehicle do you remember?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Everyday pickup..more driving than idling...

[@michaelkane732]

i like thrust much better than wd 40

[@qbubbaq]

WOW That 17+ Core Wasn't a small change in design Was it, That should fix alot of problems.

[@marshallkendo7095]

What’s a typical dealer charge for this? Great video

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Parts labor tax...n what not prolly a G note. Thanks for watchin!!!

[@beozzie690]

The darn cooler needs to go away period! Along with that def fire chamber and you won’t have any codes from those bloody things.

[@buckhorncortez]

Well...you just get with the EPA and work that out for us ASAP!!

I got a 2019 6.7 with 47k miles. Doesnt idle much but doesnt get driven on long trips or tow heavy loads. Most work it does is plow snow. The p0401 code appeared just before a major snow storm last winter, dealer ssid fine to use it. Well light went out on dash a day later. Since then it comes on every so often and goes out on its own after a couple of days. Do you think the cooler needs cleaned? Seems if it was plugged the light would stay on? Other than the dash light being on, truck runs excellent.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

2019 is NOT the cooler.

[@mikedirks5889]

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod What do you think could be the cause?

[@TheRealSlowhand]

If there is so much problems with those EGR bolts is there some aftermarket alternative with superior performance???

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Dont think so..
