2000 7.3td Excersion engine dampener

[masonfamilyo4]

I need to replace my engine dampener on my 2000 Ford Excursion, it has a wiggle, now making the belt chirp. Looks like an easy job, just looking for some tips and what NOT TO DO. Thanks again for your time.

If you do not have a harmonic balancer puller, rent one from an auto parts store

What other things should I do or look at replacing do to high miles 225k?

With those kind of miles I would do an updated Low pressure oil pump for $75 from advanced auto

never seen one die but good idea.youre gonna be right there,its only 4 bolts to pull it off.pull the ecm fuse and crank it over a couple times to let the new pump suck oil and build pressure before you let it fire up.

that really depends on how deep you wanna get into it and how much money you want to spend.honestly they arent thaqt expensive but a few things require a good amount of time.

I have a back up car to drive, want to do as much as I can while I have everthing out of my way.

not knowing the maintenance or how said vehicle was takin care of or length of time you owned it.

these are some of the things i would do.injector orings,if finances permit it id go with new injectors,ipr orings,turbo pedistal orings,turbo up pipe donuts,high pressure oil system orings,glow plugs,inspect/replace injecor wiring,oil cooler orings.remove all turbo/intercooler boots,clean the oil out of them and make sure they are good and tight.wouldnt hurt to do the ccv mod on it so you dont end up with oil in the intercooler pipes again.remove the intercooler and flush the oil out of it as well.could probably use a coolant flush and refill.

these motors are built fairly well and will last a long time if properly cared for.keep the oil and fuel clean!!

One In my 96 Gave up the ghost after 280k and besides the new design feeds more oil to the HPOP, maybe it could keep up w bigger injectors better

not saying they dont.

but thats an idea i have about an issue with my truck.im running twin 17* ****** hpops and my oil gauge is always fluctuating .but according to my mechanical gauge my pressures are normal.wich tells me the twins are suckin more oil than the lube pump can supply.i think i may try replacing the pump on mine and seeing what happens.
