This is the second video I’ve seen you make where those egr ports were clogged in the intake and cleaning them out solved the issue. Crazy

[@codyphillips48]

Happens a lot. Techs don't go far enough when performing the first step in the pinpoint test. Normally they will stop at the turbo looking for intake restrictions.

[@Merritt3246]

It's too bad that all techs don't go thru the process like you do. Keep up the great videos, even tho I don't have a diesel, and have the 7.3 gasser, I still enjoy watching your videos!

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Cant show u all everything 😏

[@x99j]

I had the same problem on a 2019 ambulance at 25,000 miles. The dealer tech did the tsb, replaced the core and put a new egr valve and mass air flow sensor on it. This took 2 months. What fixed it? Cleaning the intake ports you showed!!!! In addition we also had a plugged ccv filter. I now replace the ccv filter every 15000 miles, when it starts using oil i know it is plugged! I don't know if a plugged ccv filter is a contributing factor? But it can't be good to plug the ccv filter and start drinking oil! With a good ccv filter there is zero oil usage. Keep in mind this is on an ambulance with excessive idle time. I can't change the way it's used. Thanks for highlighting this issue! It is an easy fix.

[@BK-dv1hh]

Question, 11-16’s lots of trouble with po401…replace the filters or the whole cooler? Are the 2017 filters the same size as the 11-16’s, and can the 17’s be used in place of the original ones?

[@duconce]

I think this exactly the problem I'm having. Mine is 17 model, got the light, took off the throttle body which was caked up like the one your working on. I cleaned it and vacuumed up the material. Engine light went out for awhile then came back on. I didn't see those ports you pointed out so I will recheck to make sure they are clear. This started when I noticed the intercooler hose split. Will the engine code light go off if cleaning those ports out is the problem or do I need to have a reset. Thanks this was a really helpful video

[@claytonlehman4628]

After your videos in the past about this, I cleaned that area out along with the butterfly flap when changing the CAC tube at 100k for preventative maintenance. That was one dirty and nasty job!! I wasn’t having problems but feels good to have it clean and work as intended. I also replaced the MAP sensor since it was plugged and cleaning it did not work. Regens happen less now and it sure made the truck seems smoother / more responsive. You rock! Seems like a good thing to check on.

The MAF is also used for limiting the total amount of fuel to be injected. Lambda is calculated based on the MAF data and converted into g/s of airflow. grams of air mixed with grams of fuel = X lambda.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

The MAF here, on these...does not make those calculations, strickly for EGR friend

[@JaegerWrenching]

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod You're right, this specific video you are calculating EGR flow based on the decrease in MAF or Mass air flow. I'm simply saying the MAF is used for calculating the total available airflow to be burned which ultimately is lambda limiting. If you still don't believe me I'd be more than willing to talk/prove it to you! Cheers!

I had P0401 on my daily driven (commuter in SoCal) 2019 F250 6.7 around 45K mileage. Drivability was weird, loss of power and response in light throttle driving, still performed normally at higher throttle driving, Mpg suffered and transmission would not lockup converter at light throttle conditions. I cleaned MAP sensor with acetone soak and delicate q-tip agitation, cleared code. Drivability improved to good as new for 5K miles. Same code came back at 50K mileage, took to dealer and they recalibrated the PCM and cleared code. At 55K mileage drivability issues resurfaced. I cleaned MAP sensor again and drivability was restored to as new. No code has displayed since PCM updated. Very annoying that MAP clogs so quickly. Going to try S&B MAP spacer next with a new sensor next time drivability issue resurfaces.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

I'd be curious to see what or how that works

[@flippintobyland7257]

When you command egr operation up shouldn't the truck start running bad at idle ? Have a 2016 6.7 and has had 2 egr valves installed, cooler looks clear . 40k miles on truck .I've commanded egr position up and down and no change in idle or maf ?

Better make sure them egr ports are clean in the lower intake.....

What can you donor use that would assist in preventing maintenance to keep EGR system as a whole cleaner or happier? We daily a 16 for now since we RV and when we are working, the tow pig is our 2nd daily driver. So it seems more lower speed daily driver usage and then occasionally highway use.

Worst case it needs an intake later because the carbon is too difficult to remove? Throw on a new PCV valve/filter while there.

Lots of carbon build up caused the problem, ports in the upper intake? clogged behind the throttle body. Read the other comments. High idle time caused the carbon to build up.

TSB is just a repair instruction set. More than anything it is a way to save steps and money whether it's in warranty or out. TSB can, and often is, a short lived document that gets put into the service instructions set after a bit.
