New (to me) 6.0 just ordered egr delete and coolant filter

[Flapdisk]

Well I just purchased my first 6.0 about 6 weeks back and now am going to install the egr delete and coolant filter kit... Besides checking or cleaning out turbo, what else should I look for while im in there? And whats cleaning agent is used to clean the turbo?

Replace the STC fitting and the updated oil screen; also your oil cooler if you have the money. 3M makes a kit that works well for cleaning the turbo. I used a sand blaster with glass beads and it cleaned it up like it was brand new.

Thanks, whats the stc fitting exactly? Ill probably change the oil cooler, but never heard of the oil screen yet, Wheres that? By the oil cooler? Sorry, new to the 6.0's lol

The oil screen comes with the new oil cooler. The stc fitting is the connection to the HPOP. Good luck. Coach

Hey. New here, I've found myself on this forum many times when on the net looking at different things about my truck. Figured I might as well join it. So......I have a 04 SD bone stock......already had EGR system replaced one under warranty......I have a sct sf3, mbrp 4" Turbo back straight exhaust, afe stage 2 intake sitting at home waiting on me. I'm having problems right now with the truck running REALLY rough and sputtering when its cold. This is what I'm dealing with.....any questions, comments, advice??? Please help! Lol

The previous owner had a new shortblock put in with new oil cooler and a few other things i cant think of but have on paper from the ford dealership in fort myers, fl. It was done 10 months ago. Does the dealership usually replace the old parts with the newer upgraded parts? Like oil cooler screen, etc?
