EOT not getting hot enough
Not my truck, but on a friends 04, that we did the oil cooler 3 times in his eot will not get anywhere near 180/190 i think the highest we ever saw was 153*
We changed BOTH EOT/ECT sensors
cold soak after sitting over night ECT 51* EOT 12*
where do we go from here?

The fact it's had three oil coolers make me wonder if it's related.
How many miles is he getting per cooler? Some owners never even need a new oil cooler, is this a truck with half a million miles on it?\
Are these OEM coolers?

he was stingy on parts and bought a $30 oil cooler off ebay and it blew with in a couple hundred miles...so ebay sent him another $30 oil cooler which he took out the blown one installed the one again from ebay JUST for flushing purposes.....then removed it and installed a FORD oil cooler......
Temps were an issue since the first oil cooler replacement

Long story on this, bought his truck with a severly blown turbo.....we decided not knowing the history we should do the oil cooler and egr delete.....

Yeah, those flea-bay coolers should be banished. Other poor saps here have had the same luck

What are you using to read the temps? I had a similar situation where my cold soak and running deltas where 30-40 degrees. It turned out that it was the scanner I was using and not the truck. Try using a different scanner or method to read the temps.

The EOT hangs out right around 150* I thought it was the Scangauge he had but we tried mine and it didnt make a change....
My truck cold soak are about 1 deg off of each other
Any one have the part # for the pigtail for the EOT sensor?
