That will be some good content. I think you will get it to run. cant wait to see the progress. great work JY dog, keep it up. THX
the beds burnt from high power burn outs till literally tires catch fire... it's why the motors toasted.... over revved to long...
I hope you get it running mate good luck
Great truck. I have had a 2008 with the 6.4L for several years and is solid as a rock. This year does not require DEF and has an exhaust filter that cleans itself periodically while driving. Definitely a great project.
I tow a 33ft 5th wheel.
Thanks, I hope this one pans out. It all depends on the the previous owners maintenance with doesn't look too good so far.
The reason everyone went to a def system is because that filter you speak of clogs up and puts you on the side of the road. The exhaust fluid helps burn the soot and makes it more reliable. My work truck has the fluid and really doesn’t bother me at all. Not sure how many miles you got on your truck. Some last longer then others but I pull a 30 foot Arctic Fox fifth wheel and my 2008 duramax that also had the filter clogged up and put me on the side of the road at 120k miles I deleted it and have 175k now no issues plus I get 22-23 mpg on the hwy. it will happen to you too specially pulling weight. My advice to you would be don’t let it idle with heat or ac on blast and don’t shut it off when it’s trying to regen. Eventually you will have to delete it.
@@JYDOG, Seeing it was deleted and it has that 5-inch exhaust, I'd bet it doesn't have the exhaust filter on it anymore. And I'm not sure if you got it running yet, but if not it may be because it has to be re-tuned with an aftermarket tune seeing it has had factory parts removed from it.
@@rodleypumpkins4174fully deleted, and bullet proof, and you got a badass truck. I have a 2008 6.4. 310k and still a beast. It had 40k when I got it. I like different years of the big 3. This body style is my all time favorite ford diesel truck.
Woah cool ! All the best for your purchase and improvement.
You said it would turn out really good or really bad, I know you sold it but I’d say it turned out really great. I’ve watched every video in this series and you did great. Kudos brother. Don’t buy it, build it!
At work today I was thinking,” I wonder what ol JY dog is up to?” Well that explains it. Good luck with it. Good job on the key dilemma.
Down the rabbit hole with a Ford 6.4 diesel. This may be a short project. Stay tuned. At least we are learning something.
nice truck dont let anybody steel your thunder
actually the glow plugs get the combustion started then they stop and the high compression of the diesel takes over
I had a 6.4 and had no issues after DPF delete. I think 275k miles when i sold it, burned no oil and ran great. Although fuel doesn't seem to be your problem I would do fuel filters because most people don't maintain that on these trucks and that's important to take care of that expensive fuel system. Awesome truck really, just the DPF is a killer. With straight pipe and mild tune I got anywhere from 20-25mpg depending on the drive. With DPF and stock intake it was about 17. Wish I hadn't sold it, really can be a great truck if someone hasn't beat it up.
Got 160k with deletes and tuner. Runs awesome! I get 24mpg on the hwy with that tuner.
where did u get that truck from cause I nvr in my life heard a 6.4 getting over 20 mpg fully deleted and tuned. even going 55 with a tail wind. those things burn fuel like nothing
@@papadressing I just bought it from a farmer, dunno why you can't get good mpg. Mine was always great
What are you guys talking about DPF delete?
@@kylewoodward7078 Its a diesel particulate filter that comes on these trucks
My brother in law bought one and blew the head gaskets at about 90k after it was deleted The tuner is what did it. That motor has an ass load of head bolts but man they stretch fast. However can be a solid truck
Best way to fix a 6.4 is to set it on fire. Looks like the previous owner couldn't even get that right.
True that
Not true
I tend to agree, I think that fire is from an absolutely insane burn out from a guy really mad about the repo. I’m interested to see how it turns out.
Love your old truck
Hi JYDOG. is there any codes coming up? Nice truck. If you lower it you might have to change shocks too because of the amount of travel. Thanks for the video. I hope you get that truck running. It might help to get that ECM reflashed and put back to stock.
No codes for the engine, good fuel pressure and it has sync between the cam and crank sensors. You might be right about the ECM. Im sure it had a tuner on it at some point since the egr and dpf delete and it may have bad programming.
My 6.4 has has 483,600 miles on it... no major problems
Can you please add the link to that OBD scan tool, there a ton of them out there, and based on what i read on the forscan site, not all will work, and since yours did, I want to go with that one. Thanks.
make sure your batteries or fully charged then put a 200 amp charger while you start it,use ether to prime it and bleed your injectors,fuel rail making sure there isnt any air pockets inside
Hi, if the engine is only reving to about 3 thousand revs it could be the sensor on the exhaust manifold, it's a problem with diesels,
Hope you fixed it to running. If its the ECM that gonna be pricey as hell.
Bed Fire FYI: The 2008-2011 F250 some had issues with the OEM brake calipers seizing and overheating. I had one that I returned to the dealership 2 times due to overheating wheels - They accused me of riding the brakes. I took the mechanic had him touch the left rear rim which burned his hand then took him to the right rear and it was cool to the touch, then asked him to explain how this could be possible since if I was riding my brakes BOTH should be hot. In the end, I replaced ALL the oem calipers with aftermarket and all issues went away. It looks like he was not so lucky.
I had a similar issue i assume my neighbor jumped the fence and stole some fusses and relays
Diesels are an entirely different world, still scared to work on them. Ill stick to my little gas Toyotas hahaha. Good video brother!
Check to see if the glow plugs are working. 80 to 100 it should start . Glad to hear it's deleted
Flatbed! And a 45g tank out of an EX!👍on-board air and an extra battery😜
ima tell u like we say at our dealership over here every 6.4 needs a motor.
🤣🤣🤣
Did you check to make sure all the air is out of the fuel lines
I thought the taillights were reversed on 08+ to reverse lights on the top ..
Found a 6.4 for a great price! Guy told me the water pump replaced and drain and fill on coolant, both fuel filters replaced and the fuel water separator bowl took apart cleaned, and reinstalled. The truck is all stock and has 248k miles. The truck is nice except for a ding here and a scratch there and a hole in the driver's seat. It's a lariat to. Really uncertain. Any advice
The only way I would own a 6.4 again is paying just for the body or owning a brand new one knowing I would sell it around 100k miles.
Is there another video on why the problem was
That bed was most likely replaced. Those are 99-07 tail lights
The 6.4 was a “throw-away” engine. Lucky if you get 150,000 miles and, if you do, don’t expect many more after that.
Buddy Smith I’ve got 210k miles on mine. Guess I’m just lucky.
Yes, you are!
I WISH YOU LUCK WITH THAT ONE
Nice tall van
As a 6.4 owner I can tell you you should delete it. I bought one with 136 on it and the guy had just replaced the EGR and within 4 months the new EGR went again. No major problems since besides regular maintenance like tyrod and one of my up pipes started to leak after years of salt and snow.
6.4...my condolences man
That isnt the stock bed it came off an older truck i can tell by the tailgate and fuel door
Tailgate and tail lights are 99-07 but the beds were the same from 99-2010. No difference until 2011.
Try to find out who the previous owner was, contact them I'm sure they know exactly what's wrong with it which would save you time and a lot of money. Best of luck with the project
I'd like too but would feel bad about contacting him because he lost his truck and I ended up with it. It certainly would make it a lot easier though.
Seems like the previous owner spent too much on accessories & not enough on payments. Saw a lot of pickups repossessed here in the Texas oilfield when the oil price dropped.
The engine compartment is so packed full of stuff the mechanics have to remove the cab to work on it. When I first heard that I thought it was BS, until I saw it at my local Ford dealership.
Diesels need clean fuel & lots of pressure. Have to be able to breathe, too. We have more problems with the exhaust system on our Peterbilts with Cummins engines than all other problems combined. Good luck to you sir.
Yeah, i hate to see people loose there stuff because of a bad economy. If I cant get this truck running without having to replace the engine I may just part it out or resell it. I really like it but owning a diesel appears to be a money pit. Especially a 6.4. Good point about the fuel and pressure. I suspect it may have bad fuel right now.
my f-250 is broken down same model as this one you bought and also need a new engine. I saw the rest of your videos on your engine swap and would love some help on doing the same.
That Bed isn’t from that truck it’s. A 99-07 bed so fire damage is prob from the truck it came from. 6.4 is a very problematic motor if not taken care of right.
A friend of mine had one that was always kinda hard to start until he replaced the starter. Kicks it right over now...who knows?
Well I was hoping it would be that easy. I replaced the starter and the new one works better but still no start.
Hey JYDOG, I'm a diesel tech, worked on plenty of fords and many others. The 6.4 what you have isn't a really good reliable motor. IDK if you read and forums or not but many people stated those motors are like grenade motors, or other word, throw away motors. You probably don't want to hear that but the upside is that, let say you got a new motor put in, and then bulletproof it. Then the motor would be a fine to use. what kills these motors and many new motors out on the market is the the aftertreatment system on them. it suffocates the motor so it can't exhaust like it supposed to and not to mention creates back pressure in the exhaust system, which overtime cause it to grenade and fail. When bullet proof, the motor can finally work properly and make it work like it suppose too. When I do the bullet proof, when they come back in the shop, they only come for service and thats it. Something to think about.
Thanks, from what i've read everything you said it true. I don't know if you have had a chance to look at my other videos but my solution is to put a 12v Cummins 5.9 engine in it. Problem solved hopefully.
When You Bullet proof the 6.4 engine, what steps is you take as a mechanic?
@@jerrylittle8922 what I have done is an after treatment delete. Delete the dpf, egr cooler. Then go and do heads gaskets and studs. Once you do those thing you just made the 6.4 lot more reliable than it was before.
@@jasonman1515 Thank you Sir.
I have seen much worse, so if the oil, filter and Plug-magnet looked good it's an positive sign I would change all the filters and clean the Batt. Ground attachments, when you have the Batteries fully charged, try "jumpstart" it by going in to the 6mm cable-wire you find between the Passenger side Battery and the Frontfender.( you can find how to domthat trick here on CZcams).. You just give it a hot+ directly from the Battery and it should start right away, if that dont work...yes you probably have a starter problem.
I have a 2008 250 Superduty Diesel myself and I have only had minor problems with the Notorious Anti-Theft System activating itself.
The 6,4 is an awesome Truck if you take care of it as younallways should do !
Nice truck...yes it`s too high...2" lower would be nice...
So you got only one original key and with forscan you were able to program a new one? Sounds interesting, because I got only one key with my 2007 Transit connect and the owners manual told me that both original keys are needed to program a new one into the ECU...I think I need to have a look into forscan...
6.4 V8 Diesel...must be a beast...
8-P
Thx for the vid!
:-)
forscan.org/ is a great little program and free. You will have to register for an extended license which is free and will allow you to program the pats security module. Read the forum on the link before you get started I believe I saw some info on there about programming keys for a Transit Connect.
I looked there and thought the windows version to set up on a laptop was free and the android version was to be paid, so I need a bluetooth-able laptop now...let`s go shopping...
:-D
Go with a USB adapter it is faster.
Flatbed and new wheels and tires🤤
Man this is not going to turn out well. This was a year ago I need to see if there are more videos.
I'm think you check before key because ,is spenser reprogram key for stat truck . How take original key
LEARN!! ENGLISH!!!!!!
Looks like someone did a burnout until tires caught on fire
Bed looking burnt may be from someone smoking/blowing the tires from power braking.. hope this ain't a ragged out truck for ya man looks good!
That's exactly what I was thinking when I first saw it but looking closer at it now it looks like someone just set a fire in the bed.
That truck will go into limp mode if you fart wrong . It will flat out not run if o2 sensor fails , rearmost
Look at last video from power stroke diesel . RUN LIKE HELL.
Possibly a kinda weird question, but what tires are you running on your 2003?
Bf Goodrich ko2 265 75 16
Lots of "experts" will tell you that the diesels will fail early...This only appears to be true if they are modified for more power or "bulletproofing" . I bought an F-250 diesel with the 6.0 and drove it over 200k, mostly towing a 35' fifth wheeler, and the rest commuting. NEVER had an out of warranty repair, and only a couple of them. (Recall for something in the EGR and later a turbo replacement at about 97k) To make yours more attractive to a buyer, I would suggest lowering it to stock height, as mods like that convey a "run hard, put away wet" connotation. Cranking speed does not have to be great to produce the needed heat...that is what the glow plugs are for, but there's a high pressure pump in there, which I'm not too sure about,but it will prevent starting for some reason. Beyontd that, I can't offer much, except a Ford dealer can reset everything,including the PATS system, and it will work with your new keys then. Personally, I have a 2016 F-250 which is wonderful, and as yet has just over 10k on it. I quit rebuilding salvaged cars in the early 80s. too old for that much fun now!
@9:20 oh he ganna LEARN!!! Hahaha 😂 had one truck from hell!!
How. Can you get info in an auction
I love the 6.4 trucks, but they are not worth much even when the are running. Most are scared of them. My friend has a 2010 f350 flat bed 180k and ford offered $8500 trade in.
...I see a 40+ foot 5th wheel (project) in your future! LOL
Or, I was thinking a small Earthroamer or turtleexpedition.com/vehicles/
Cool idea! The one you have is close to that now, just add the 4X4.
Wheels are probably 500 each new. Tires too.
How much was the truck?
All about 7.3 and 6.0!
The motorcycle swingarm in the bed of the truck looks like it is from a Buell.
I'll have to take a closer look at that. I was just thinking I wonder how much I can get for it in scrap because it was in my way.
You might be able to sell it on Ebay. They do not make buell motorcycles anymore.
Best thing sell the parts it's a bigg $$$$truck
Pay the $1000 for a bullet proof oil cooler frame mount kit, had a 08 6.4 with a heavy tune and the oil cooler would get plugged every 18 months and would need a $2000 repair bill just because they need to take the cab off every time.
Super strong engine though! Could pull anything and everything and blow that black smoke
Just suscribed! Only cause u got a 6.4 powerstroke love these
Tell the moter blows
As far as getting it running. Put the e g r back up and running. You said pressure makes this engine run. E g r. Putting used exhaust into it cold help their. The other delete needs to be fixed as well.
Because
We don't know if the engine ran after these 2 deletes. Starting at basic factory set up will at least let you see if the deletes did it or not.
Fuel compression and heat is what diesels need
tractorboy31 ...GENIUS!
@@bbubacz1 why you say genious. Ive know that for a long time. Ive run diesels for 16 yrs
If you get that engine running or replace it with a used one, I’d immediately delete everything including dpf. The 6.4s can be reliable but with certain mods. Deleting it will prevent it from entering regen mode and further the longevity. Good luck!
Arun Rajhansa EDIT: can be a little more reliable.
Why is everyone talking trash about 6.4s in the comments, I have an 08 6.4 lariat it has 135,000 on mine , if you delete it and keep doing regular fluid checks, and tune ups they'll run great, also to fix that truck to start, unhook both batterys and let it sit for 2 days, it should reset the computer and let u start it
If the previous owner had a tuner on the ecm, and didn’t delete the tune codes back to factory.
You only live once 🤷♂️🤙
Expect problems with that 6.4.
Osnnndndndnenenenenebennebeebbebebebeebbebebeebbebebeehhehheheheehheheheheehehehehheheehehehehehehehheheheeh
6.4 is a throw away motor made by international which is also junk. If anything get a 7.3
7.3 is made by international.
International said it’s a 100000 mile motor. Any international truck that has that motor when it comes in they rip the thing out and put in a new one. If u want to pay that much or the salesman will sell u a brand new 6.7 that you’ll be paying for till you retire.
I love my 6.4 I don’t know why they get bad rep
I would say they are great engines but the fact that they had such a short run 08-10 at Ford makes me thing something is wrong there.
Check batteries and starter
Might as well just go ahead and rebuild that 6.4. 160k is nearing the end of its life. Local ford diesel expert told me to stay away from the 6.4 with 100k plus miles
Buddy of mine bought the truck I was looking at he got 500 miles out of it till it completely took a dump. He’s $10k into the rebuild
I'm going to take a shot at getting what I have to work without too much expense hopefully. If it looks to be a loosing proposition I will just part it out or resell it.
You don't know what your talking about
NBF1865 looks like I do
@@jeffpower6473
Well theirs two possibilities with that truck. Either it wasn't fully deleted or some man child owned it & abused it. Their not race cars. Its meant to pull things which is the intended use of truck. I have a fully deleted 6.4 with a big tune. I leave it in stock hp because I don't want to grenade the engine. I have people try to line up at red light trying to race me all the time. I never turn truck up though it's self gratifying though knowing if I did she will blow the doors off them. Like they say take care of truck it will take care of you. The failure of these trucks was the emissions system. Once you remove that stuff your good to go.
Something else that is vital is a meticulous maintenance program with the 6.4. Heck most people can barely remember to get to the filling station much less change the oil. A big mistake people make with the 6.4 is that they fill up with bio diesel which is catastrophic for fuel system it will foul up entire system. I've literally pulled up to pump prepaid walked out realized it was bio diesel walked back in store & got my money back. People just don't research enough to understand the do's and dont's of a 6.4!
If worse comes to worse got a good suspionchn to put under box camper
if the engines on good put a cummins in it
A 6.4 with that many miles...be careful it’s not that great of an engine. Yeah powerful, not so much in the reliability region though
Yah he might as well motor swap it and sell that motor to someone who’s threw a rod
@@conortimm733 for the amount of money he'd spend swapping the motor he could easily purchase the handful of parts to completely bulletproof that motor and still have some left over.
@@jordanl5628 even bulletproofed I still don't trust them. They weren't engineered well at all down to the strength of the rods
if it made it that far.. its probably fine, or he went bankrupt trying to keep it going
@@jordanl5628 you can get a 12v cummins for $1000 without the body to bulletproof a 6.4 powerstroke is almost $3000
He was doing burn outs and flaming hot rubber got flung and was on fire. That’s definitely what happend
Ok 6.4 l not reliable not the worst not best wither I check starter make sure it is good and check glow plugs just make sure they are good not going make it turn slow stater will do that and go from there if was me I try that first now ither things thing cause ur rotate slow now was castphrohic problem engine swap it for another engine and tank bed off well I purchase flat bed if it was me but that me but I first get it running but if u change starter and it still turns over slow then I stick breaker bar on crank make sure motor not binding well hope that helps you best luck with it u can dm message if I can help any insight I owned more one diesel over years
Caution: you need to keep an eye on the EGR delete setup. The pipe at the rear of the engine with the EBP sensor bung at the bottom tends to break and set fire to the engine
I wouldn't call the 6.4 a reliable truck
Don’t listen to any of these clowns! I have an 08 w/ 357,000 miles 6.4 ... still runs like new, just don’t go programming ur truck, and a used 6.4 is not the way to go, just break down piece at a time and build new. Also, that tailgate isn’t an 08 , sorry 🤷♂️ ..... I love my 08 and will never get rid of it! All these fools blasting the 6.4, I’d bet 2/3 had programmers
According to bill at psh 6.4 r throw away engines,he wont touch em, so be careful with yer cash.lol
smoothoperator yet that’s what he drives?
@@MyLoganb Yes but he even says every time I takes it on a trip he's just expecting it to shit the bed and like he said they're throwaway when they do.
@@MyLoganb actually his 6.4 caught on fire and burned to the ground a while back. Faulty alternator I believe.
Bill's a idiot
Bill at Powerstrokehelp.com was using Ford remanufactured engines for the 6.4, as they were too unreliable to rebuild!
czcams.com/video/yRAJahoLWrk/video.html
It boggles me why anyone buys used Ford trucks, because they almost always need $1-2k+ work done already and the 2000-07 GMT800 trucks are a superior platform in literally every fashion aside from the stock magnesium T/C's. Especially powertrain; T/C excluded
These engines are hit and miss. The tunes are 350hp tunes out there. These depend on the job builds.
Bed is off a 07 or older
I think its just the tailgate.
2008-2010 ford trucks do not gave the greatest reputation. Sucks cause there really nice in there pricing, ad have enough mordern features amd desgin to keep up with newer trucks. Replacing the motor would be the best option. But thats my just my opinion.
Drop a 7.3 in it or a cummins.
Derek Bedford exactly what I was thinkin the bodystyle of the 6.4s are sweet just shit engines
That is the best option
7.3 makes less power than a 3.5 EcoBoost
Derek Bedford That's what Westen did and couldn't be happier with it.
put a 5.9 cummins in it and you're set.
6.4 powerstroke is a drop in motor.. motor dies drop another one in. Cost too much to fix..a bullet proof 6.0 is a better option. Or a 12v 5.9 Cummins with a mechanical P - pump
12,500lb off the hitch
Just rip out the 6.4 & throw in a 5.9 Cummins with a Ppump, it's about the same price as rebuilding the 6.4. on these they are pretty much worn out after 100k, they are throw away engines.
Resale to the Douche kid down the road He would be about the only one that would buy a 6.4 But anyway good Luck 👍 brother Because if you keep that truck you’re going to need it I don’t know why you would’ve never bought a 6.7 power stroke definitely the way to forget everybody talking about the 7.3 If you want to oil burner oil stains all over your driveway guaranteed to have it in the shop just as much is that 6.4 go get the 7.3 Stay completely away from 6. Ooh no Unless you want to spend about as much is you paid for that truck to bulletproof it Otherwise are you going to be blowing gasket’s every other day
If the previous owner ran it out of fuel then the fuel pump is bad
5000 psi cranking pressure on the high side. I wish i could save it. Everything check out but the compression . My step father is a bus mechanic and he says something is wrong internally .
6.4 that's where you went wrong
called a f250 a neat little truck lol and thats why everyone is an individual lol
Just put a 212 harbor freight in it with a 90 toothsprcket and make a video of it ! Reap the money from the views !
