Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Turbo Is Out - EBPV Delete
While my turbo is out I decided to delete the EBPV. I removed the butterfly and rod, & pounded in some 3/4 inch freeze plugs. Are there any mods that need to be done to the pedestal, or can I just leave it the EBPV plunger unhooked? It's not leaking, but will it leak if left unhooked? Or do I have to gut it and tig weld the oil gallery's

Just did an egr delete, oil cooler, icp sensor and exhaust on an 03 f250 6.0l. got it all back together and it cranked up and ran for about 30 seconds then stumbled and died. read to pull out the ipr sensor and check it and it had a piece of debris on it covering the screen. took of the debris and still no start.

My fuel bowel drain valve is leaking again. I plan to do the hutch mod in the next month or so. Have the kit already. So I can't do the fuel bowel delete yet. it seems one of the mount holes for the drain Valve is stripped. The top rh screw won't snug up. I swapped out the orings and it still leaks. I'm sure it's from that screw. So I'm thinking about a flange bolt and an oring from the inside of the fuel bowel. It's going to be a temporary fix.

I bought a 99 f350 truck. it has a van turbo and exhaust back pressure delete. The truck wont make more than 3 PSI of boost. Ive got a p1690 wastegate actuator circuit code. unplugging the waste actuator does nothing. With the van turbo, is the actuator required? Is this code stopping the ecu from fueling and creating boost? I did a cylinder balance test, and cylinder 8 failed. Is a single injector not quite balanced enough to make it not boost past 3 psi? The turbo appears brand new (previous owner said it was), charge pipes hold pressure (tested), EBP Sensor tube is clean (shows up to 24 psi). I tested the wastegate actuator, OnDemand5 says if its over 50 ohms, its bad and replace it. its 69.5 ohms. Again, i dont want to replace it if i dont have to, as its not being used (no wastegate on van turbo), but if the ecu is preventing it from spooling because of the solenoid, ill change it.

I want to build a fuel bowl delete/regulated return fuel system for my 2000 f250 . I would like to make a really neat kit and attach all products used so people that want to build their own would have a useful source. I understand that it will probably cost the same but I want to design my own and route it the way I want . I have 3/8 1/2 5/16 and 1/4 stainless tubing as well as a bunch of unions and 90* 45* fittings and a couple tees. What size is the ports for the fuel lines that go into the four corners of the heads . I am a pipe fitter pipe welder by trade so this is basically a mini version of what I do everyday at work. Looking for some size details of the head port sizes so I can get the correct fittings?

How will a muffler delete on stock exhaust sound? I don't want to remove the cat because I don't want it to be too loud. I want it to sound good but not too much whistle (considering my truck is a 2003 the whistle would be very loud) Should I just to a delete pipe on the stock exhaust, or do a cat-back 4 inch straight pipe? what will sound better? Also doing the cat back exhaust will cost a lot more.. but is it worth it? What I should do.

View 5 RepliesFord Excursion :: Delete Or Bullet Proof The EGR?
So I am looking to drop some coin into my 6.0, and one of the things I have been looking at is the EGR delete, BUT, I have been reading that the delete is illegal in all 50 states. I also have been reading that newer factory computer re-flashes will now trip the check engine light, even on the 03-04's, IF they have had the delete done.
With being active duty military, I move often, and I don't want to run into an emissions issue somewhere down the line. So the question is, should I go with the delete, or replace the stock EGR with a bullet proof one? There seems to be difference between the delete kit and the bullet proof EGR.
Ford Exhaust :: 2006 - Delete Cat Or Muffler?
I've got a 2006 6.0 350 with stock exhaust and am wanting to either delete the cat or the muffler, but not both. I'm curious how each would sound? For example, would deleting the cat make it louder than deleting the muffler, or will one make the turbo whine more audible than the other? Also, is there any benefit to deleting one over the other, performance wise? Oh, I'm not really looking for loud and obnoxious, but more turbo whine wouldn't be too bad .

New to me truck, 2004 250, bought in Aug, 110K on it.
First thing out of the gate the FICM wiring Harness was bad, so I will have to replace that, I was thinking that since I'm that far into it why not just go a little farther and have a look see at the EGR Cooler and the HPOP...
I don't get white smoke on start or any other time, seems to run fine, haven't got a scanguage yet, so no data.
Thinking about doing the EGR Delete, but not really sure on all the pro's/cons of it.
Being an 04 truck It won't throw any codes if I put in the delete, and its far more economical to do the delete, however I have heard that new ECM program/updates could cause the truck to throw a code...
Looked at BPD and their EGR oil cooler, but that is just plainly out of the budget for now.
SOOOO If I delete am I looking at a potential check engine light (god I hate those) in the future, and or issues when I go in for emissions, can they really tell its been deleted?

How to completely turn it off, I got nothing so far. I cant do it with my H&S, I have access to ford IDS which is also unable to turn it off.

View 14 RepliesFord 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Lower Boost After EGR Delete
Some people say it's normal to lose some boost after the delete, some say it's not and you need a tuner. Before the delete, I could regularly see around 28-29 psi on the factory gauge if I jumped on it. Now, I see about a max of 20-21. I have no leaks that I can find and the truck runs just as it did before. I still have my EGR plugged in laying on top of the engine and don't have a check engine light-yet. Is there a definitive answer as to how to fix this or is it really considered normal to lose that much boost after a delete? I don't really want a tuner because I'm not looking to add HP, but if that's what it takes, then I need to save up. I also read somewhere it can depend on the strategy.

I am looking into getting the full deletes on my 2013 F250 6.7 and using the H&S Mini Maxx Race Tuner unlocked. I was told by my local Diesel Performance Shop I should just unplug the EGR and turn it off by the Tuner rather than investing in the delete kit.
He advised me it would be easier to plug it back in and turn it back on in case I need to take it back to the Dealer for any warranty work He advised me no advantages any way and works the same way. I will be putting on the H&S race tuner, S&B CAI, FLo Pro 5" down pipe back w/ no muffler and UREA delete.
Ford Excursion :: 2004 - EGR Delete / Coolant Filtration System?
I recently purchased an 04 Excursion XLT with a 6.0. I want to do an EGR delete and install a coolant filter system to address the oil cooler issue. After doing some research I am confused on which coolant filtration system is best. I have looked IPR's setup as well as sinister diesel's system. It seems that IPR's system would filter more coolant however I'm not sure if it is better than the other systems on the market. Are there any other systems that I should look into?

View 10 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2014 - EGR Delete - CEL On?
I have a 2014 ford F350. Was flood damaged, all fixed and running great except a couple of small problems.
Was trying to solve a mykey problem with volume being restricted to 49% and IDS said it had found new PCM and TCM software and should it update.
Me being a dork, (forgetting that the truck is not stock has EGR delete and other stuff that I'm not even sure of) said 'sure go ahead!!'
As soon as it was reflashed, it came up with errors
ENGINE IDLE SPEED
EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION ERROR
REDUCED POWER
did some googling and it seems (possibly) that when the truck was modified, the PCM was reflashed. When I upgraded the PCM I screwed it up as it set it back to original factory settings.
Do I need to buy an SCT tuner? Is there any way in IDS to disable EGR (I have a clone and I cannot find it). Am I best to take it to a shop that know what they are doing and have the reprogram the PCM.
