ROk so had an 06 f350 and the oil cooler and egr destroyed the engine... only 69k now got an 04 49k miles heres the deal in sept 2011 had new egr,oil, turbo installled in oct got new turbo and bulletproof egr i got the coolant filter not installed yet and ford coolan
My question: shold i run the coolant filter before i do a flush? He last time i did flush and elc conversion it killed my oil cooler i cant afford another so how do i safely flush my system without kiling my oil cooler?

1 run coolant filter like 3 filter changes then do flush with draining block an radiator?

2. Flush then instl filter?

3 pray my oil cooler run and just use fordcoolant with filter?

Sorry broke 24 yr old wanna save my financed truck.

If it ain't broke don't fix it. That said get a monitor in the truck and monitor engine vitals e.g; EOT, ECT, ICP v, FICM v, Batt v, Trans Temp, IPR %, VGT% and EGR % to start. If you see a spread of 15* or more between ECT and EOT then you are going to need a new oil cooler in the near future. If it's under a 15* spread than let it go with the regular ford gold coolant and coolant filter. When it does clog then flush and replace the oil cooler and continue to filter the coolant. If you need a monitor let me know I can get you taken care of.

I dont have the $$ to do another oil cooler is why i ask also is it the sans casting or the silicates from the coolant or both that clogs the oil cooler? I have bulletproof egr also whats a cheap monitor? The edge cs or i dont havr alot of free casj becuase my budget but i can spend like 200 for monitor or save for edge cs? Ps what branch you in? 4 yrs so for Air Force so far

Our truck arnt really for low budget's. If your deltas are 15* or more you need to change it becouse you risk oil cooler rupture. Then your really up sh1ts creek. Its not too bad if you can do all the work yourself.

Army. If you are on a budget for a monitor than look into scangauge II it's readily available at autozone and work great for a budget monitor under $200.

Bulletproof Diesel also sells the ScanGuage II for a great price, and they already have all the PID's entered (PID's are the codes you have to enter into the ScanGauge in order to tell the ScanGauge what to monitor).
