Small world! I actually work right on Southport Rd across the the Rhino Liner Truck shop. My truck is down right now with some brake issues but if your ever in town pop me a message and we can talk trucks on my lunch break.
Weird, my truck is a 2005 but it doesn't mount to the thermostat housing like yours. I'm going to try cleaning the tube first and sensor to see if its just a restriction. If not then I guess I'll check wiring and replace the sensor.

I had P0470 codes and turbo farts at 70mph a while back. I replaced the EBP with one from ebay, it lasted a week. Finally paid the price for a Motorcraft and was back up and running. There are two types of EBP sensors, mine (2005) mounts to a plate on the thermostat housing. The first one I bought didn't, so don't know if there was a difference in the sensor.
I still have a P0470 code from time to time. I probably need to check the tube again to be sure it's clear.
I see you're in Hub City, I'm in Bucktown (Roebuck). We'll have to have a coffee sometime.

Which by the way makes replacing the thermostat a royal PITA mounted to that stud.

I've heard others mention it as well, I think the issue is when the nut is partially froze to the stud. I fought the inside one, and almost stripped the stud once I got the bracket off.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I have now read multiple old threads they didn’t call out pulling the glow plugs and turning the engine over in order to remove any liquid left in the cylinder. Is something different from the 7.3 engines who required this step? Sorry, I’m likely needing to do HGs and we use the truck to haul a camper around in the wilderness so I’m trying to figure out reliability mods to do while I’m neck deep into the engine. I’ll at least probably replace the o-rings on the injectors after pulling them and toss in new GPs.
