Ford 6.7 EGR Removal & Air Intake Upgrade

so I'm going to wrap it around the new cooling line there and try to put it on that. put this back on, so I'm not sure how well you're going to see this, but this hose here, you can see, there's a bolt here , so this is just going to clip in there like this and then it's going to hold this cooling hose. there, so I'm going to go ahead and, uh, wrap this around here, it's like my camera is falling over here, sorry guys, my camera was falling, but you can see I have it there, so kindly . that way, uh, this cooling line doesn't rub against everything, let me go ahead and cut this flange here and then for now, I just did something like that on this, you can see it stays there pretty well until I can find some where can insert the clip, okay guys, so now we should be ready to put the shot in here.

I want to show you something, so I have a little helper that just fell on me, that guy, but also show you. You're here before you go ahead and put in the shot. If you look down, there's another little friend down there that looks like an old Nest mouse. I'm going to go ahead and grab my vacuum cleaner and clean that up down there too. So next you can go ahead and start installing the entry. Like I said at the beginning of the video, we're upgrading to an SMB, so I'm going to put this in, so then take your eight millimeter and go ahead and tighten that.

Now let's see if we can place this part on the inlet here, of course, I removed my rag from here and I'm going to try to place it on the inlet here first so that the air box slides this way into the inlet there. something like that and as you guys saw right, you didn't actually see it, but I had to remove that bolt just to lift it up a little bit because it's a little bit of a pain to climb up here, so make sure everyone's lined up. up here and just go ahead and tighten this up and then in the kit they gave you this little foam insulating tube that's going to go right into this cooling line here to keep it from rubbing on your tube there, so just wrap it around it something like that and then you have a sticky back, so first stick them like this and then overlap them with that like this, and I'll probably turn it upside down like this and of course I'll go ahead and plug in your mass air flow sensor here, push it in, press the locking clip , put the air filter in place and you have to turn the hose clamp here, just like that, take your eight millimeters and go ahead, tighten this and go ahead and put your cover here just make sure everything is tight like this , so they also include this, it's like this rubber grommet that I think stays there like this and they give you this piece, you go through the cooling line here and then you have to fold it down.

I'll give you this 10 millimeter bolt with a washer and it goes over here and let me go ahead and tighten it up so I think it's something like that and then this just sits up there just to keep these hoses from rubbing so now we should be ready to start filling and, you can see my hose fell off there, but let's go ahead and tighten that's the secondary radiator drain here, tighten that and then the Same thing with your primary, go ahead and remove that hose and continue. and tighten it like this okay guys so if you watched the last video when I did a coolant drain and recharge on this truck I used these OEM tools.

It's practically an OEM vacuum refrigerant recharge two four four four four. I'll put a link in the description that works great, so it creates a vacuum in the cooling system and then refills it so it doesn't have any air bubbles or anything. uh Ford says that's how you're supposed to do it, but I'm sure you can get away with just filling it and topping it off, and then also what I drained earlier in the video, I'll reuse it since I covered. Since it's not that old with coolant I'll reuse it but I also have some extra from last time in case we need this and like I said in the last video Ford discontinued the orange coolant they normally use and now they've switched to yellow , sort of to the green and they say it's okay to mix the green with the orange and you won't have any problems, so let's go ahead and plug this in and we'll start filling it.

Go ahead and grab the uh 40 millimeter socket that they give you in the kit, put it in there, then go ahead and grab your tool, push it down and then go ahead and tighten it down and then there should be a good seal so then go ahead and grab your Venturi valve here and go ahead and connect it and then make sure all the valves here are closed and you can go in any direction that is closed that is open where it is closed let me grab my compressor hose Here go ahead and connect that, okay, so now I'm going to go ahead and start pulling a vacuum on the cooling system, so go ahead and open up my compressor line here and then I'll open this one up.

Make sure you keep this one. closed until we're ready to fill with coolant then it'll take a few minutes but we'll look at our gauge there and once that gauge stops moving and the radiator hoses and everything will collapse and we know we have a vacuum. and then we can go ahead and close these valves, so like I said, just go ahead and open this, it's probably making noise here, you can see it's starting to draw vacuum, there's a couple of minutes here and then you can also see that it's starting to collapse. Our radiator hoses are fine guys, so you can see they're pretty much stopped there, they're about negative 18 or something like that and they don't go any lower than that, so that's pretty good.

Also, our cooling hoses are completely collapsed, so what you need to do now is leave. go ahead and turn this off and also close your venturi valve here and I'll go ahead and let this sit for a couple of minutes we'll just make sure we don't have any leaks in the cooling system here okay now like I said This is what I took out earlier so I took a whole five gallon bucket and I had it covered so no contaminants would get in there so go ahead and grab your uh your line here that goes from your tool and you can Look, this also has a little filter, so go ahead and stick it in your cube here and let me grab it a little bit because this just wants to float over you so you can see it only took a couple. of jaws here that way I can get it all the way in there and it kind of stays there so now we need to get the air that's still in this line and then going down there we need to get it out so what are we?

What we are going to do is leave our compressor connected. I'm going to open them up again so we're still doing the vacuum and then I'm going to open it up slowly and you'll see the refrigerant start to rise and then I want to immediately turn it off here before it goes in there and then we can turn it off and disconnect our air compressor line there , so go ahead and open this and with this and then open this slowly and just watch the coolant rise. So, close this one, turn that one off and go ahead and disconnect the compressor line because we're done with that, so now if they're cooling up to here, we can go ahead and open this line and then We'll start supplying refrigerant to the cooling system. and you should get it right up to the cold fill line or a little bit higher and then you'll also want to keep an eye on this if it starts to go down, go ahead and add a little bit more.

I have something. in my other secondary system bucket I'm going to throw it in here as well and then like I said I have those other things in there that I mixed with distilled water 50 50. So let's go ahead and open this up and start feeding it and then you can also look at your meter up here and it'll slowly go back down to zero and then once it gets to zero you'll know it's full of coolant, let's go ahead and open this up and you'll know it's starting. to fill up there and like I said just keep an eye on it because your level will start to go down here so you can see it slowly dropping there and I had to add a little bit there so keep watching this so I went ahead and dumped my other bucket . here from the secondary system and you can see it's still going down slowly and you can hear it filling up there so you can see we're about to hit zero here and there's just no tub the rest of it moves away and once it hits zero like I said, you see, you can see the line just above the cold line there, so now that we're at zero, that should be fine, so what we can do is we can go ahead and close this valve here and then you can go ahead. and loosen this up we could just pull it out and I think once we pull it out the level will go down a little bit here yeah you can see it's starting to go down and then also our coolant hoses here are full and take it off. the rest of the way let it drain there and then take this out and then you can see that with that out our level is perfect right where we need to be and we shouldn't need to add anything once this heats up and cools down. off, that's why I really like this tool, it works wonders, especially on these trucks that require a lot of coolant, so go ahead and put your radiator or your dika bottle cap back on here and let's go ahead and move on to the secondary system, so now moving on to the secondary system, you want to take your 31 millimeter, put it in there and then take some jaws and you're going to want to connect this line here because if not, you won't be able to pull. a vacuum cleaner, so I'm going to take this and we're going to pinch this line, we're going to insert this here and we're going to pinch it so it's like this, so now we should be able to vacuum. some take their tool and go ahead and put it in there and tighten it up and make sure they have a good tight seal.

They take the line from the air compressor with their Venturi valve, go ahead and connect that point away from the chamber so it doesn't make a ton of noise here and then let's go ahead and start sucking that in, so go ahead and make sure this one is closed. for your coolant and then go ahead and open this one and then this one to start seeing it lying around. Back here like this, I'll wait until that stops, okay, so you can see pretty much the same thing as the primary, so right at uh negative 19 negative 18 and it doesn't seem to move from there, let's go ahead and uh. put this out the same way with this one and we'll let it sit for a couple of minutes to make sure it stays and we don't have any leaks so let it sit for a couple of minutes here and you can see that the needle hasn't moved so it means that we have a good seal on the cooling system, no leaks and since we already drained the air from the other side, we can go ahead and just plug in our air valve here, the Venturi valve because we don't need it.

And then you can see it cooled down a little bit there, hopefully that'll be enough, if not I'll go ahead and add a little bit more and then let's go ahead and open this up so the needle starts going down and you can listen. it's starting to fill up nicely so it looks like I'm running a little low on coolant here so if you need to you can also turn it off to pause it and fill it up and it won't affect me at all because you can do that. I still see negative 10 there, so I've got a little ways to go, so I'm going to go ahead and fill this in a little bit here and then I'll open it up again so you can see I'm almost ready to get to zero here and getting pretty close, I just want to make sure I don't suck in any air, so it looks like we're getting to zero right now, so you can go ahead and take the jaws off here, turn that fold down. there now let's go ahead and drop this close this valve here it's out of the way so go ahead and check your level here and you can see we're right on the full line so we're perfect there so go ahead and replace your app here.

You can then go ahead and connect the batteries and then put the inner fender back into place. Just check that line to make sure it's not leaking. Thank you and we will get it back. instead here, take your eight millimeters and I'm going to place these here and then don't forget these two lower eight millimeters here as well, okay, that'll be it for the video again, this was a 2015 Ford F350. with a diesel engine of 6.7 liter power, we went ahead and got rid of all the EGR and again we are going to transform this truck into a racing truck and also a sled puller so we have more to come so if you are interested.

Watch it and it will be a preview of the track and everything, so I hope this video helps you again. Stay tuned. I'll be doing another video on installing the five inch exhaust and if you haven't already, check out some of my other videos. Subscribe to my channel and see you next time thanks
