CP4 to DCR conversion 6.7 Powerstroke

[@danielwilliams8827]

I can’t say enough good things about the service and professionalism from Auto Medic garage during this disaster with my fuel system! Hoping I can do more to support Andrew and his team in the future. For anyone watching/reading this…. To say the least you won’t regret reaching out to them. Great job guys! I appreciate all the effort and patience dealing with the insurance company on this repair!

[@AutomedicGarage]

Thanks for choosing us Daniel, we appreciate your business.

Where did the contaminated diesel come from? And did your regular insurance pay for it?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Was sent this link! Nice job player

[@AutomedicGarage]

I’d love to do a collaboration together. Got a 6.0 shorty we’re gonna be building up soon with some goodies donated from full force diesel

Great install video! Thank you for your business, and for sharing your expertise.

[@AutomedicGarage]

Thanks for commenting, means a lot. A S&S banner sure would look good at our shop…just saying

[@donjerlis]

My insurance turned me down for this. Ended up converting to a dcr myself. Runs great!

[@AutomedicGarage]

I love the dcr. I was surprised his covered the fuel system, I just didn’t specify to them we were doing the dcr but my labor and parts are significantly less than the typical job at ford.

[@jtopdawg6]

[@MississippiHot_Shot]

Why can’t the lines be cleaned and fuel logs be also? I think people just using other people’s money when stuff can be reused if cleaned properly

Ballpark estimate: how much would/should it cost to replace a CP4 fuel pump with a DCR conversion assuming the CP4 pump is still working and has not failed YET! TIA. I have a 2013 F-450 SuperDuty.

[@keoni37]

On my 2011 F350 CP4 to DCR (CP4 has not failed) costing me $4,707. Going into shop next mo 12/24 I'm in WA State. 99,000 mi & change on the truck.

[@PCassotech]

So the Oem pump lasted this guy 300k miles ??? If so, why go with the aftermarket pump and just use another Oem ? Also, I believe it is recommended to replace this pump every 100k miles, correct? Thanks for this vid and all the great info you add to it..

[@AutomedicGarage]

I doubt it was oem pump, truck had the sticker for replacement injectors so just going out on a limb I’d say it’s had a pump and injectors already. I would pick the dcr over the cp4 any day just cause it’s been proven already it handles contamination and water in fuel and the cp4 has proven it can’t handle either.

[@ZonaJim]

I haven't been able to find the answer... The DCR is only warranted by S&S for two years (no matter the miles). With that short warranty, are they expecting failures down the road? And if the DCR fails, will it send metal shrapnel into the fuel system like a CP4? If so, I'd rather stick with my CP4 and a Disaster Prevention Kit. The DCR has only been on the market for a short while, and has been installed on relatively few trucks when compared to Ford. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out when many a few hundred thousand have been installed and they start to see some real mileage.

[@AutomedicGarage]

@@ZonaJim I’m not sure I would say a few cause I’m doing at least 1 a week here now. It puts out better pressure than the cp4 and if you’ll look up a demonstration of a cp3, cp4 and dcr comparison the dcr is the least violent of a cam profile for running the pump with the cp4 being a super aggressive cam. That alone shows me the reliability part. Now take into a account that s&s has shown and run test with water and trash contaminated fuel with no failures and if you have the slightest amount of water with a cp4 it will shred itself apart then I think your reliability answer is right there.

[@tprice3450]

I'll bet all that crud in the valley was squirrel leaving. I'm gonna do my turbo when it gets warmer, but in preparation and diagnosis, I found all kinds of grit and chewed up junk the squirrels left the last time they came for a visit.

[@Monahansclassof88]

Wow, great work. On average, what should the conversion for a ‘13 Superduty be? Just want to make sure I’m not getting taken advantage of. Thanks

[@RodHisHolyGuitar]

Great video very informative thank you

[@josephphillips1777]

Does this pump and/or the disaster prevention kit void the factory warranty?

[@AutomedicGarage]

Disaster prevention doesn’t but I’m pretty sure Ford doesn’t like the dcr because it takes work away from them

[@josephphillips1777]

@AutomedicGarage I wasn't sure because the DCR pump is CARB approved, so I thought maybe the warranty would remain in place.

@ I got to the pump today. My cp4 has left the room. My thing is why can’t the injectors be cleaned? They sell refurbished ones that’s probably been in a disaster at one point and the fuel logs why can’t they be cleaned?

[@AutomedicGarage]

@@MississippiHot_Shot fuel log does more than just flow fuel has a restrictor plus regulator in it. A lot to get contamination in.

[@MississippiHot_Shot]

@ ahh ok that sucks. I’m going to do all mine my self it’s not hard I just hate to buy parts that I can clean. Fuel lines I will clean them thought about taking injectors and see if they can clean them. This is ridiculous Ford should cover this or stop using this pump a Ford tech told me 60% of these fail. That’s a big # and most people don’t just have $10k laying around to throw away for a problem they can stop.

[@AutomedicGarage]

@ ford couldn’t just stop using the pump, the 6.7 was designed around that pump no other pump would fit in the valley until the dcr was made for it. You can’t reuse fuel lines, they are 1 time use to to possibly leaking. They get formed to what they are tightened down on and we are talking 20000 plus psi. This isn’t something to skimp on.

[@AutomedicGarage]

@@jeffreyling6616 it’s an 11 model. Only has baffles in it no filter. Dump the oil out and put it back on or do a CCV reroute. Why should it be replaced? It a gimmick on the early models to replace it. Later models did have a filter but you can put the earlier style on the later models and loose the filter.

[@GregO-uj8jt]

If ford knows this pump is problematic why do they continue to use on new vehicles? They should pickup the tab for all the vehicles that need to make the upgrade.

[@AutomedicGarage]

The 6.7 has a cramped valley and the motor was designed around this pump. Until the dcr came out there was no other viable option.

[@RDTengineered]

They want the rest of the Bosch fuel system and to get it you have to take the pump.

[@AutomedicGarage]

@@RDTengineered no, you can buy a contamination kit with the dcr now if you know the right place.

[@RDTengineered]

@@AutomedicGarage I'm talking about the OEM aka Ford. They want to buy the whole system plug and play for their assembly line. Not a pump from a, rails from b, lines from c, sensors from d, etc. Then have to have a whole internal engineering team at Ford work to get all the parts to play together. Ford wants to have minimum engineering support requirement for the fuel system and buy it all in on spot to cut down on headache. Ford is getting a package price for the system. The price of that Bosch would give, if they would, for the system minus the pump most likely does not make sense commercially.
