7.3 POWERSTROKE EMPTY HPOP RESERVE TANK FIX.................

[@Tomtommy1501]

CHECK VALVE CROWN SOLUTION: If anyone on here is having issue with the crown removal try this. Step 1: After removing the cap, spring and ball, remove all the oil using a section tube or twisted paper towel from the drain. Step 2: place the old ball back in and heat the ball and crown for approximately 1 min. This should provide enough heat for the metal to expand and release from the block. Step 3: Use a modified pick to remove collar and replace with new one. I wouldn’t risk it with the chisel method and just using a pick with no heat does not work. Best of luck and hope this helps someone. Don’t light your truck on fire. 😅

I appreciate your videos a lot. I have a major oil leak in the top rear (passenger side) of my 2001 Ford 7.3. I don't see any leaks around the oil lines coming from the HPOP or from the HPOP itself. I tried replacing the oil rail end plug close to the turbo downpipe, but I didn't have enough lead in my arse to get it out. The only video on YT that I've found showing that job also has it already loose. If you ever do a job replacing that, please film it.

Can you get to it with a long extension with a wobble end, then break it loose from the side of the transmission with an impact gun?

Is this the preferred way to also empty the HPOP reserve tank instead of sucking oil out of inspection port at the top? I may be one who still wants to change it out but wanted to avoid sucking it out if I could simply allow it to drain into pan and then reinstall the ball and spring. Do i then need to take top of reserve tank off to refill, or use inspection port to refill? Seems inspection port is going to be messed with no matter what. Thank you.

If you suspect the HPOP hook up a oil pressure gauge at the ICP see if it builds 500 psi or remove the ICP pack towels and see if it shoots oil out while cranking if its working it will pump many quarts out in a few seconds No CEL light is normal Test the CPS also

Hello Clint Allen, enjoy your info, have a 2002 7.3L with 173K, have replaced ball, spring and cleaned down to the crown but if it sits for 5 to 7 days is hard to start, any longer and have to top off the HPOP reservoir. What is the best way to remove and replace what I am going to call is the seat that the ball seats on and prevents the oil draining back down? Noticed FF-vn9pm above referring to it as the crown and using the chisel method. Can you explain the best and safest way to remove the crown (seat) and how to place the new seat down into the drain/fill hole in order to get it straight and seated so the ball can close it off.

On my 03 7.3 I have an intermittent leak which is on the front driver side pretty much pools up about the size of a quarter between the hpop and icp. When I'm looking at the puddle with the truck still running it seems to dry up and lose its shine. I'm going crazy. Figured it was a hpop gasket since all plugs and lines are dry and I can't see under there hpop. But a buddy told me could be this relief valve. What do you think? I don't want to remove the hpop at all. Maybe I get a drop or 2 after a drive which lands in the center of my front diff or dual steering stabalizer mounting plate at the center of the truck.

99 7.3. long crank while icp builds, engine starts after icp hits 500-600psi, pressure climbs to 1.5k-2k psi. after 15-20 seconds pressure starts to drop rapidly and engine stalls when pressure drops to ~600psi.

use a hook pick and a chisel like we made mac tool pp8 that we grind ed the end to a chisel//// brake the crown in half then pull out with the pick tool then clean the lip in the block and tap the new one in with a tube or rod we have a 1/2 in rod You will not have much resistance so no hammer needed for install If you do it when the block is still hot it can be pulled out just with a 90 degree pick

[@jasonholbert7106]

So I’m at a lost and I was wondering if you could maybe send me in the right direction. This motor was completely rebuilt. I have low oil pressure at the hpop reservoir causing my dash gauge to bounce once truck is at normal operating temperature. I installed a oil gauge at the oil filter housing and it reads 45psi cold and 7 psi at idle and at normal operating temp. I re-pulled the engine and install a new pickup tube, LPOP, timing cover, oil cooler and replaced both ends on it. I don’t know where else to look other then this pressure relief valve that was reused after engine was rebuilt. The machine shop rebuilt the heads with new injectors cups, installed rebuilt injectors, balance crank, new pistons, cam and all bearings. Anything I’m missing? I’m at a slot on where else to look. The engine is back in and it still has the same pressure after replacing everything. Thanks!

[@7.3upnorth26]

So I’ve got a 1995 F250 with The 7.3 in it which it has the different style high pressure oil pump 96 and up have a different style than what I have in my high pressure oil pump reservoir keeps draining. I put a new high pressure oil pump on it and it still does it any idea what it could be? It does not have the spring with the ball that the video shows I believe from everything I’ve read it is built into the pump but which I have a brand new pump in it and it still does it

[@dieselsmiths]

All of the 7.3ldi engines have this ball, it is actually not for the purpose of anti-drainback, it is to ensure that lube oil is sent to the bearings before the high pressure oil system gets its oil. however the oil cooler-oil filter adapter does have an antidrainack valve as well as a oil filter bypass valve that will cause your concern as well as worn low pressure oil pump and/or housing.

Is this on all years of 7.3 L? What are the other reasons the oil can drain, a worn out LPOP? How do you change out the crown. So many questions

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

The crown is removed by a narrow chisel hit in same spot break it then pull out with a hook pick then clean ridge in block tap new one on with a rod or pipe so it equally sets into the block ridge //// in rare cases if the lpop is shot and the spring on the pressure ball is worn from heat cycles oil can escape back to pan //// last possibilities the anti drain on the hpop is shot or the seal between the timing cover and block is leaking .

[@cn3121]

Does that cause a hard to start condition when it’s been sitting for a few days?

[@noahsheehan7824]

C N, yes this would cause a hard (delayed) start condition. It is an anti-siphon (drain back) check ball as stated in the video, and would cause oil to drain out of the HPOP reservoir when the motor is off. This wouldn't cause a no start condition, only a delayed start. Because, yes, the injectors won't fire until the injection oil pressure is reached. But instead of building oil pressure immediately upon cranking(reservoir has fluid), if the check ball leaks, now you have to wait for oil to be pumped up from the pan. Had this problem with my 94.5 F250.
