  1. Usually if the Egr cooler is leaking you will notice excessive white smoke from the exhaust and/or coolant dripping from the muffler. Sometimes they have such a slight leak that these concerns aren't obvious and can only be found with a failed vacuum test with a radkit. Follow the coolant loss tsb and do the radkit test cold AND HOT as sometimes they only leak hot. If it the cooling system wont hold 20 inches of vacuum for 15 min, then do the off vehicle pressure test. You may have to simultaneously heat it with a propane torch to make the leak occur. If you need to do the off vehicle test make sure you first do a road test to monitor the ect and eot pids as you may also need an oil cooler. The tsb has a nice flow chart for all of this.

  2. Well, Rex finally responded to the animation with one of his own. Now the rest of you guys can see what we're dealing with over at Autotrend.

     

     

    Obviously it's time for more Mafia members to take the gloves off and slap this bitch YO.

  3. No need to stop with mine, this is just the tip of the iceberg. I can imagine several of these things. Maybe someone can make one with Rex debating Pogo - unsuccessfully as always

  4. do the modified "baloon" test by jumping the starter to crank it with the key off and secondary fuel filter cap and filter removed. If it bubbles from the standpipe you can take the lines off at the filter housing one at a time to isolate which bank. The last one I did failed the test miserably and got all 8 injectors. If this is what you find, make sure you correct the fuel pressure issues before returning it to the customer otherwise you'll be doing it all over again next week.

  5. By my math, it looks like 9,980 vin's recalled, and it appearers the average number of injectors for this recall is about 6 per vehicle. It's been a long time since I've done a 6.4 injector, but I think each was around $400... though Ford's cost is probably significantly less. It will be interesting to see what my Ford stock is worth tomorrow.

     

     

    I sure hope Naivistar is paying for this

  6. But Gary, wasn't it the 30 years of supply side economics that set these events in motion in the first place. Supply side policies and the general deregulation that was put forward by many of the same people who like to deregulate gun laws???

     

    Just thinking out loud here, but then I may not be thinking entirely clearly being how excited I am that my Milt Sparks holster finally showed up that I've been waiting 6 months for.

  7. OMG, I just got done reading all of his threads. If I hear ICPR or IPRS (or other variations) again I'm going to pull my hair out. What a piece of work this guy is. I don't even understand his motives for posting... Perhaps he thinks he's doing everyone a public service by posting photos and stories of all the stupid things he learns the hard way (which is everything). Posted Image
