Thank you sir.

 

ok guys i might do this glow plug task this weekend... if i have all of my scrap iron cut up... i already have the gps and the gpr i just need to put them in... and do you all think i need the harness???

 

I would have them on hand just in case.

 

how much is it??? and can you find it on ebay???

 

yes you can usually find them on ebay, Ford, international and napa have them as well. Probably other parts stores as well.

 

what do i look it up by on ebay???

 

search "Powerstoke harness"

 

thank ya... i don't care what nobody says... you are a good man... there just ain't no demand for you... lol

 

one more question can you fix the harnesses when they burn up??? or really what i am trying to ask is what is it that burns up???

My repair guide is trying to tell me that I have to remove my alternator to gain access to the passengers side valve cover.....Personally I dont really need to (plus it would be a pain in the *** to take it off). Surely I can safely cut this corner right?
Rubberduck didnt list it in his version...so that has me thinking that my chiltons has a few extra steps to make removal easier.

 

No need for all that crap. There is pleanty of room. Like I said, go ahead, get the chiltons, but it won't get close to what I told you. LOL

 

it is very straight forward. valve covers off, pretend they are spark plugs, and back goes the valve covers. don't be intimidated- very simple job.

it does take a little while though- and they go by the book. the turbo would probably come off and so on... with shop rates, parts, etc. i don't think 700 bucks is over the top.

but... you can do it yourself... for way cheaper!

 

Sounds good guys, I will be tearing into it pretty soon. It is downpouring here now so probably not until later this week.

I have complete faith in rubberducks glow plug removal system, the chiltons is going to be left inside the apartment.

 

Good to hear man. You'll see once you get in there. It's really not that bad. Venturing off into the unknown is nerve racking sometimes. But we are here to support you. Good luck man.
