7.3 PSD CCV MOD FINALLY DEBUNKED

[@jfbrubaker1969]

First, I just want to say that I enjoy and appreciate your videos very much, they have been very helpful with my 7.3 2000 Excursion. Before anyone starts blasting me, I have a background in aerospace engineering and I have a very solid understanding of fluid dynamics (yes, AIR is a fluid). At the 5:00 mark you are talking about the CCV port that feeds into the tube that connects the air intake to the turbo. When the engine is running, the engine/turbo is sucking air IN through the air filter and the inlet connector tube. Because the air is being sucked IN, this causes a significant pressure drop inside the inlet connector tube. Think of it like a straw in a drink, you suck the air out of the end of the straw, this causes reduced pressure inside the straw and the liquid in the drink is drawn up through the tube...it's the same principle. This reduced pressure draws the crankcase gasses through the CCV and into the inlet connector tube. The venturi in a carburetor works the exact same way. The reason the CCV inlet port is facing 'forward' is for two reasons - first, it acts like a 'ramp' of sorts and helps to get the crankcase gasses more to the center of the airflow so that they can be more evenly dispersed into the airstream to help prevent buildup in any one particular area (this is why crud gets built up evenly all over the place). The second reason is because, due to its shape, if the port was facing 'backwards', it would cause a significant amount of turbulence right before the compressor wheel...which would be very bad for performance.

[@omeqch]

Did some work on my Excursion recently. Had to remove air box but left tube/Ccv connected to turbo. Turned the truck ON and guess what, the slight blow by it has was sucked into the turbo clear as day. The reverse didn’t happen from what I understood he was trying to say (air pushing into ccv vs pulling gasses out of ccv). The tube facing the filter works as needed. I’m no engineer but seeing it with my own eyes proves it works.

[@DaveC-Zulu3]

Bingo. Glad somebody mentioned this.

[@brownh2orat211]

Yep, works as an eductor to pull the fumes and oil droplets into the turbo.

[@akquicksilver]

Did this mod when my 2000 was 2 years old and never looked back. Engine still strong, doesn't use oil and very little blowby. Great video!

[@garykirkpatrick2636]

Thanks for your testimony, very encouraging for us with 7.3’s

[@russtilkes62]

Thank you, apparently none of these younger guys ever worked on a pre-60s engine everything from Y-block Ford to 283 Chevys and flathead all had a crank case vent tube that puff smoke out the bottom and drip soil. Along with all of the off-road equipment and big trucks that you describe in your video. The scent of gasoline through the carburetor mixed with a little crank case vapor takes me back to the good old days.

[@TheRoshaun25]

Great vid! I really like Power stroke Bill, but he led me astray for years on this one. 300,000 miles w/ factory ccv and your intake valves are caked with nasty oil crud. Run much better vented to the atmosphere

Thanks for these great videos, explained so that anyone can understand. Our 2001 7.3 has 165,000 miles on it and is used mostly for towing to the Dunes and to Baja etc. it has already been modified before I got it with a Gale Banks turbo and a transmission controller that I have found so far, I think I will contact Gale with the Vin number to see what else has been done. I have a clear understanding of the CVC and also believe that we don’t need it. We should ventilate to the atmosphere maybe with a catch can.

[@joemaser9122]

Everyone forgets that diesel engines will run on crankcase fumes/oil with a closed system. Old engines or high output engines can run away on crankcase oil if you break a piston, burn a piston, break a turbo or have worn piston rings oil fills the charge air cooler and can run till it's junk that's why old working class trucks had open crankcase breathers and high output engines had extra breathers to stop oil leaks and runaway's

[@hotrod6919]

I think it comes down to everyones engines run differently by wear, design, altitude, oil viscosity, temp, humidity, and maybe it comes down to what is your personal crankcase pressure to begin with and then decide what it needs Plenty of people debating on whats right or wrong and how to do a ccv mod on youtube. But I don't see many people measure the crankcase pressure before and after

[@loganp8575]

Do you have plans to show how you did the second ccv? I have my thoughts on how you did it (econoline passenger side valve cover then modify it to have the oil fill neck) (or use the trucks drivers side with a bracket made to allow a ccv to be mounted to it) however I would prefer to see rather than speculate because I tend to overlook similar things or overthink things till it gets complicated.

[@Golgi-Gyges]

I don't want to go look right now, but I suspect that those valve covers are interchangeable and so he put another left-side on the right.

[@Golgi-Gyges]

Oh, and the filler inlet could be fabricated on

[@jasonlewallen7146]

@@Golgi-GygesI’m almost certain they aren’t interchangeable. A ccv fabrication would be correct. I’m looking into it now, I’ll be cutting a rectangle that includes the ccv attach area needed from an extra cover. Then cut out a rectangle from the passenger cover, slightly smaller size so that I have a 1/8” coverage with ccv cut out. Have a close friend that does fab work, (AI) angry iron metal works that’ll weld it in place.

Still have the truck, still running fine. Doesn't use/burn oil and lots of power. I have consider trying to flush/clean the intercooler out, don't know if it would be worth it. Another great video.

[@tracymawer1966]

Does anyone know how he added a second catch can to the passenger side do you have to use a driver's side valve cover? And do you periodically have to drain the catch can?

[@carlosnunez-fi7pv]

If you find out please let me know too!

[@tylerreum4011]

The port facing the opposite direction won’t be able to completely overcome the venturi effect. The air flowing into the intake helps suck the ccv gasses

[@cynthia.bubolz8875]

Nice! Amazing what people beleive, nice to get the real facts once in awhile!

[@LimaTangoZulu]

The only time I see someone with a leak because of a crank case vent mod, is because they used a cheap catch can that’s very restrictive, or they did a reroute poorly. You can see in the video, he’s using a very small restrictive brass fitting. Or if you run the hose somewhere and it’s pinched, that’ll cause problems. A minor turbo leak doesn’t sound like a CCV mod problem. If the crank case wasn’t ventilated, you’d blow a rear main. And that needs the tranny pulled to fix. A quality catch can, or a well done reroute will work just fine. Also the engine in that video is a 6.0 PSD, but great video nonetheless 👌🏻

[@novamastermann4462]

Statements, and a Question! Statements: My coffee cup doesn't get sticky or weird, until sometime after I stop adding fresh coffee. If it were day one, I would certainly vent to the atmosphere! However, right now (per my inspection of an intercooler pipe) what I have is Clean, Wet, Fresh oil... presumably throughout, the affected components, but at the very least, downstream of the turbo--which I'm okay with! If I stop refreshing it then, it will be moving toward Old, Dry, Dirty junk. Question: Am I crazy?

[@jeffheiks3022]

So what filters and sensors can we change to keep the engine running besides the obvious oil air and fuel... there are others

[@atv55803]

need to ask a question change a few sensors cam and icp and a fuel filter have a weird driving issue the can sensor was the international one in the box for my 2001 f350 powerstroke the truck had stock fuel type filter was out of town and changed it to a wicks at the same time the cam sensor and ipc now it has a sound pitch change all of a sudden its running smooth and good and then the sound pitch changes like all of a sudden its breathing different then it back to normal so weird Im thinking either its the fuel filter from wicks or the ipc or maybe cam sensor not sure the power is always there the sound just changes

[@paulmason01]

How do you add the breather to th passenger side?

[@charlesquick3656]

What did you use to block the hole/hose inlet on the intake pipe ?

[@texusarmy-fister7697]

Now I'm interested in how you modified the Pax side valve cover for a CCV to match your driver's side mod. Since you've done this to "all" of your trucks, perhaps you already have or could now do a video??? It seems simple in theory but we all know that those are the things that tend to have the biggest oversights and thus the biggest consequences. Perhaps you simply templated the port holes and then welded or used some other means to affix the CCV??? I'm thinking about the driver's side design and that it's meant to seal at the junction... But I can't replicate that in my home garage.... Or can I???? I will say this.... I'm replacing the internal injector and glow plug harness/gasket, so I just pulled all of those parts. The inside of the intakes were pretty doggone clean. The turbo looked clean, too. Those original valve covers looked shiny new on the inside. The 2001 and beyond Gunk.... was on the outside of everything. I had not noticed any smoke nor any oil loss. To my knowledge and all appearances, these were the original harnesses and gasket. All were in great shape, although the Pax side internal connector had slipped its clip-connect. I saw that after I removed the gasket.... well, I should say that it was clearly obvious once the gasket was out... The connector had one side down at an angle, so it hadn't completely fallen off, but it was free and not firing. I will throughout check for wire breaks with pressure and flex and then hang onto them perhaps. I purchased new gaskets that no longer use a clip-connect, but simply route wire through and tie to the proper location. The old gasket still had ties holding the wires in place on the gasket "frame", so I suppose they are high heat and meant to remain in place to ensure against a wire interfering with the rockers, etc???

[@frankcrutchfield9052]

Bill is not completely wrong, if you kink the hose, then it will not vent properly, and it will leak like a sieve when you shut it off. When I did mine, I just flipped the doghouse 180 degrees, put on new O-rings, flipped the elbow straight up, and put a K&N 62-1030 PCV filter on the elbow, never had a problem or smell since putting this filter on. The reason I know a collapsed hose will cause a leak, is before I got the above part, I tried one that had a rubber flange; the rubber flange collapsed, so it was not venting, and when I shut it off, I had LOTS of leaks; scared the mess out of me, lol. switched out to this one, which has a steel flange, and have not had a problem, or leak since.

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

we use hot rated pex lines

[@samuelrivas3943]

I flipped my doghouse and went to home depot, got a 5' stick of ¾" 1“ (can't remember which but it barely fits snug into the elbow) or PEX, heated it up with a torch to put a slight bend going straight down the firewall and it lands about 3' under the shield cover thing (idk what it's called lol)

[@joshuafoster6764]

How do you install the passenger side valve cover?

[@LostInPhilly89]

5:50 I see the point you were trying to make, but there should not be any air trying to force its way down the CCV port. That would only happen if air is blown into the filter externally, but as it stands the air gets sucked through it via the engine and turbo. Therefore, the air is only flowing in one direction in the intake tubes (pulled through the filter and pulling through the CCV port).

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

next time you have your turbo down pipe off start the truck and experience just at a idle how much air is being pushed out, Then you'll get it

[@carl2591]

I actually cut that stem off of the intake to reduce the air resistance to flow. my turbo inside is quite clean but I still get some oil in the intercooler tubes like normal.. need to remove and clean the intercooler maybe after like 268K miles.

[@justinlogue31]

So you took a driver side valve cover and placed it on the passenger side so you can run two ccv's? Never thought of that, I just run the one. I do get the bad smell though. I may need the catch can.

Very good info, thank you! I do have one question though; on your truck, after the catch can, the hose that vents to atmosphere, where is it mounted? I've heard it's bad to run the hose all the way along the frame to the back bumper. Do you just have a short length of hose that dumps out underneath the firewall?

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

The catch cans are right where the frame turns straight with the rubber tubes extending from the cans 6 inches past the front doors and yes thats all the further you want to run the tubes not past the front doors more than 6 inches thats why I dont deal with smell or fumes, we tried running to the back of the cab but if you live in cold weather the ends freeze shut

I bought one of the ADDw1 oil catch cans. Would that be good enough to run for this set up

as long as you use a min 5/8 ID input and out put perfer 3/4 buy separate if needed

Do u have any videos on transmission seals? My 7.3 4x4 excursion started pissing atf all over the place last week.

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

not yet but front and rear trany seals if that's what went are very easy its just the killer if you need to pull the trans out

[@LukeUtigard]

@@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD excellent. Thanks again for the advice. Looks like I know what I'm doing first half of my 4th of july

[@rickyd3787]

I do not have a catch but i did this delete of the EPA recirculation BS right when i bought my 96 7.3 with a brand new motor... no way was i gonna have my air to air clogged up.... i have it venting straight out and yes it makes a little mess but a simple pressure wash never hurts.. ill eventually put a catch can can maybe even use your idea for another ccv on the passenger side... anyhow great no l video.. i did this to my 17 cummins and my wife's 18 cummins immediately cause I've seen what it does after 109k on my friends cummins... ON THE INTAKE SIDE AFTER THE INTERCOOLER.. absolutely disgusting.. Thanks for the video

Last time I checked vacuum in a crankcase is a good thing

[@russelljackson7034]

Right on

[@tylermayo7430]

Did you plug the ccv port on the air intake?

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

Yes I use epoxy the puddy and mushroom both sides

[@tomkilgore874]

Do you put it on both sides are just leave it on one

[@shanechostetler9997]

I knew I shouldn’t have given away my $500 Airsep from my boat engine when I repowered!

[@butchpullido1870]

If you look on the 7.3 international trucks around the same year they vent to outside

[@tannersargent1945]

Power stroke bill is a legend. Show the whole video and his extensive knowledge strictly on power stroke engines before you criticize. He has proven his knowledge time and time again.

[@CUSTOMWORKS7.3PSD]

No doubt But Bill is wrong here

[@JasonGarber-n9y]

Idk how everybody else feels but that powerstroke help guy could actually learn some new thinks if he wasnt so cocky, that was always the impression i got from him
