Archoil is a great product, but your truck is in desperate need of new injectors.

I think it's time for a set of 8 new injectors. After 500k miles it's getting there even on a 7.3

your an awesome lady. ..to take time to figure out your problem and not give up on ur truck. ..I also have a 7.3 with 510,000 miles on it....was having the same problem. ...I put Rev x in it and it cured the cold starts ...different additive but does work like the archiol. ...everybody telling me to put injectors in....well injectors are very expensive ....my truck runs great now. ....I've had people tell me that it's just snake oil but we have prove them wrong. ..stiction is a real problem that gums up the injectors. ...It is not snake oil....I relate it to the friction modifier that you put in your limited slip rear end. ...everybody will agree if you don't put it in your rear end it will greatly reduce the life of your rear end. ...I've also put 2 stroke oil in my deisel fuel. ...I've have had people tell me I'm crazy but again I have proven it works. ..in 510,000 I have never had to replace the fuel pump. ..the injector pump or any injectors. ..very few people believe this but it's true. ..I plan on keeping my truck and I would get in it and go anywhere. ..I still work the truck cross country. ...and 90 %of the miles are pulling heavy loads all over the us...your a smart lady...keep on trucking

Mitch Bussell I gave up trying to make people believe it works, does it start up and run like a brand new truck when its not plugged in, no, but before I put the Arch oil in it would never ever crank up and now it always does, so I plug it in and I drive off like everybody else does and it runs like a brand new druck. And yes it may need injectors one day but not today , why it runs so good and the oil has been changed on a regular bases more than most people cause I take pride in my truck

Your problem are the injectors. You can fix your problem by using shims to bring the armature clearance to .002". New injector come with .004" but due to wear,I wouldn't recommend going higher than .002" as it could cause codes and with that amount of miles the injectors have wear.

I gave up trying to convince all Y'all men that stiction is real. Archoil helped my problem. Y'all can go and waist your money on Injectors and one day I will have to replace them but not today!! My truck is still kicking ass and taking names but thank y'all for all your suggestions. Much appreciated.

Hey, I really liked your video. I always wondered if the Archoil was as good as Bill Hewitt on Powerstrokehelp says it is. You just proved that pretty well. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. I really appreciate it. Can I ask for an update on your truck? Did the cold starts get better and idle smooth out quicker the more you drove it after the Archoil treatment?

your injectors are trashed, pull the valve cover, fire it up watch the spill port, the one thats constantly dumping oil out the spill port is the bad one. the poppet valve is what usually fails in a 7.3 injector. you can also do a cct test to determine which cylinder is not firing or weak.
@daltonsmith3045 жыл бұрын
After my experience, I will always replace injectors when signs of going bad. Mine stuck open and over fueled number 8 cylinder. Burnt the motor up. That stuff seems to work great, but I would use it more so as a precautionary type of thing rather than a fix. Not dissing it, just telling you a bad experience that I had so that maybe it won't happen to someone else. Sweet to see someone still running the ole 7.3🤘. Nice truck! I will run mine till she can't run no more. (Yes my motor problem has been adressed lol)

Just get a new glow plug relay and keep putting additive in oil and in fuel and you will be good to go. If you want to feel a difference go buy just a K&N filter and put it on the end of your stock pipping it will wake the truck up. Or if you want to spend $190 on Amazon look up T.S 6 position chip it makes the 7.3 a whole new truck and very easy to install

EXTREMELY important on any truck with an HUI ( Hydraulic unit of injection)system to extract the oil out of your HPOP (high pressure oil pump) engine oil pan takes 15 quarts I believe its another 3 in the top end in your oil rails and HPOP. 7.3 is mostly mechanical and is suppose to cycle the 3 quarts through the engine, but when the truck reaches several hundred miles it builds up sludge in the hpop. it will burn out your injectors quicker if not maintained. and WILL GIVE YOU TERRIBLE COLD STARTS start with that it may save your injectors. Mechanic in a can isn't always the fix. although diesel injectors were designed to be lubricated with the sulfur in the diesel fuel. due to the EPA cracking down on the sulfur the engines now run with minimal lubrication so I run archoil as well for the OIL and FUEL additives. hope this helps someone. definitely cycle out your hpop oil sludge itl help a ton and a cost effective starting point.if your worried about your injectors most mechanics will run a buzz test for around 20 bucks.
@crashandburnbirner8 жыл бұрын
No... There is no need to take the oil out of the HPOP, becuase when it is running it cycles through every couple of seconds. Taking out the oil will not take the sludge out with it, seriously man look at what you are saying.

crashandburnbirner exactly correct. It cycles down to the pan in minutes.

crashandburnbirner I can assure you you are wrong on this matter, just pulled the top end oil out of my dads old 99 model, had similar issues as this ladies truck, 300,000 mile truck bone stock original injectors. mind you the old man I'm meticulous on maintaining this truck oil changed every 5000, the oil that I pulled out was about the consistency of tar. changed the top end oil, with a little archoil runs like the day he bought it off the lot... in theory it should drain to the pan but doesn't.

***** Tried my other 96 and the oil looked the exact same as the oil in my pan, maybe there can be a blockage in the drain line?
@hoost30568 жыл бұрын
I've had a couple of 7.3s and it's not the long block that goes bad but the components in the HEUI system. As long as the engine has good compression and oil pressure, and no coolant mixing/leaking just keep going with the engine you have. But no doubt the HPOP, injectors, oil lines, glow plugs, relay and other items need to be done.
@MrLegoman24727 жыл бұрын
You have 500,000 on factory injectors I take it so I don't know if you understand how the huie 7.3 injector works but they use high pressure oil to inject the fuel at high pressure and over time the oil side gets gummed up with crud and they don't work so I would recommend changing your injectors and keeping the archoil in it and you will have no more injector problems

hi, my truck has started every day for the first time in 5yrs since I put Archoil in , and it runs so smooth when warmed up, a brand new truck doesn't run better and I also put the fuel additive in . If we get a cold night, like 50 degrees for here, cuz im in West Palm Bch Fla I will try to make a better video this time. sorry about the other one it was my first time.I also put it in my power steering pump too this stuffs amazing.

you need to change your injector oil regularly. check out powerstrokehelp.com. they have a KZbin channel as well. this is common in the 7.3 world when you haven't changed your injector oil on the top of the motor.
