I finally got my SG installed today. I entered the codes I got from here,https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/a...8&d=1337911266 I tried all the options given if one didn't work, still nothing. Is there another code for me to try? It reads everything else I put in. Thanks

 

Make sure you're using zeros not ohhs

 

I have tripple checked that as well. I'm gonna try it again tomorrow using the same numbers again, unless someone has a different code for my to try, or at least the code that works on their truck.

 

I have this from Tim and it worked for me:
07E0221310 046245130610 3010 00090005F060 EOT Degrees F

 

without my glasses it looks like the math is different

 

Last fix has it the same( I think?)

 

That math figure is the one I have in it now. The second option given in the info was one number short,(providing it is supposed to have the same amount as the others). I tried it anyway and it still did nothing.

One a side note, my FICM is showing a healthy and steady reading of 48.5.

 

I had an issue on mine with correct numbers logged in on one of the available slots.
Ed from FICM repair said delete that slot and re-try the correct numbers in a different slot and it worked for me

 

Thanks for the tip.

 

Well, it was an error on my part. I had one number wrong elsewhere. After I got that set up correctly, I went for a drive to check the difference in the EOT and ECT. I was driving in normal town traffic with no load in rainy 40* weather with a few times of getting on it when I could. My EOT never got above 187* and my ECT never got above 179*. for most of the run the temps stayed within 5-7* of each other, but then was a time or two that it got as far apart as 10*. Upon returning to my driveway and letting it idle for a few minutes while playing with the SG, the EOT and ECT both settled down with the EOT at 178* and the ECT at 173* so I let it idle for a short while longer, and that's where the temps remained. Not sure if those numbers are suspect of a problem, but that's where I am at the moment. My FICM stayed steady at 48.5 and never fluttered. My volts at KOEO was 12.7 (this was when it was cold and before I started it) after the start up, it dropped to 11.9 then back up to 13.9-14.1 when the alternator kicked in. Trans temp never went above 148* as well. I'm sure those EOT?ECT numbers will change a little when the warmer weather gets her. Supposed to be in mid 60's tomorrow, so I'll take it for another run.

 

The "simple/easy" test that is commonly used by folks is:

Once up to temps, drive on a flat interstate for 15 minutes at about 65 MPH. This generates a long enough workout for things to be the easiest to compare to what others get. Your ECT should be 190 and then your EOT higher than that and the delta is your magic number.

stop-n-go in city traffic would give everybody a different reading.
I suspect your thermostat is weak, and not helping keep your engine up to temp, deltas are not useful when your ECT/EOT are in the 170 to low 180s range.

 

T-Stat will be changed here in a week or so as I am doing an oil cooler install and an EGR delete as well as replacing the turbo and STC fitting. I wasn't going to install the SG until I did the work, but someone suggested I should anyway. So I did. This way I'll be able to see what, if any difference there is in before and after. The blue spring will be done at the same time too. Gonna make a day of it. I have a Ford diesel tech that is gonna help me do all the work. That way I can watch/help/learn all at the same time how to wrench on these diesels. My first one, I still have to think about which pump to pull up to, when I fill it up. lol.

I'll put it out on the interstate tomorrow to get a more accurate reading. Thanks

 

You should flush and flush and flush your coolant BEFORE you replace oil cooler. There is a risk of clogging your new oil cooler again if you don't get it cleaned out real well ahead of time.

There IS some benefit of new Tstat, then flushing, and using the SG2 on the highway to see what your delta BEFORE you replace the oil cooler. Might save some $$$ that way too..

 

Great suggestion on the flushing. After all, I'm just gonna dump the coolant when I pull it apart anyway. The oil cooler is basically free to me, so that's why I'm going to go ahead and replace it now, even if there is nothing gone wrong with mine. I am real **** about preventative maintenance, so I might as well.
