    Okay thank you for the response that what I figured. I see there are a ton of options out there for tuners. Any you recommend in this case cheapest is better for me so I can get the truck gone and be done w it! Looks like a SCT x4 is what I will be going with

    6.7l EGT Sensor Codes

    I just got done replacing the CP4 and fuel system on this truck and finally got it running. Runs great besides the reduce power flashing on the truck. I pulled the codes and it is all 4 banks of the EGT sensors. I looked underneath and it has no sensors on the exhaust and the wires just hanging...

    2012 Throwing P228E Code

    I just picked up a 2012 F550 dump with 220k on it. I got it super cheap as the guy thought it needed injectors (doesnt currently run) This is a 100% stock truck and is throwing P228E. I have done a ton of reading and done some work on the truck so far. All fuel filters have been changed, the...

    6.0l Over Boost When towing

    We have a 2005 6.0l at work which is having trouble with towing heavier loads (8k plus lbs). Truck runs great and rips as it should under no real load but the second we put some weight behinds it going up hill we have the wrench that comes on and it goes in to limp mode. We get codes P0299...

    High Pressure Oil Rail Plug Wont Come Out

    Yes that is correct. The hole is round and the motor is now out of the truck. I had it out in a little under 3 hours got sick of dealing with it in the truck going to go over the motor full on and make sure every seal is new!

    High Pressure Oil Rail Plug Wont Come Out

    Thats the weird thing though the heat did nothing, and I had it pretty damn hot, Idk if it wasnt hot enough but like I have to walk away for a few hours after the heat because she was so toasty

    High Pressure Oil Rail Plug Wont Come Out

    I also think before i deal with welding it (I do have a new seal and end cap) I might try to cut a small hole in the firewall to get a pry bar in and hit it with a hammer. I assume its the threadlocker that is stopping it from moving and not the torque, a swift hit or 2 might break it free...

    High Pressure Oil Rail Plug Wont Come Out

    Yeah the square 1/2 hole is now a round 1/2" hole. I think I would have had the motor out and back in if I had just started that way. Ill see what I can do with the welder.

I swear...

    High Pressure Oil Rail Plug Wont Come Out

    At that point id be afraid to strip it shes already pretty tender. I have already used a 3ft bar to try and get it and its not moving at all. This aint my first rodeo but this think is kicking my arse. Can I literally weld it or is there a high temp sealer I can put on to till I have time to...

    I have a pretty bad leak coming from the high pressure oil rail plug on the back of the head near the turbo. Its the plug that has a 1/2 inch hole in it. I have been trying for about a week to get this dam thing out and it seems to not want to budge. I have tried heat, penetrating oil 3/4 times...

    Diesel In Coolant Quick Q

    I have done quite a bit of searching on this but I have yet to find some one with a case similar to mine. I have diesel in my coolant from what I would assume is either injectors cups or injector Orings that have gone bad. The kicker this motor only has 80k miles and came from an early 99...
