NEED HELP

[tjb]

Hey Guys,

My oil cooler is leaking and I need to replace the o-rings and gaskets. It is on 84 6.9 I called the ford dealer here and he said they cant get the o-rings
so I called the International dealer and he said it was showing a couple of different sets and could only get certain ones. I was wondering if anyone out there had a set they would sell or if someone was able to purchase them in their town and ship them to me I would pay you to do that for me.

Thanks TJ

The ford dealer can get them they just are to lazy to order them.

Call Ken at Titus-Will Ford. If they are available, he'll get them for you. You might have to tear it apart to see what set it uses...the early ones used a 6 ring set IIRC and the later a 4 ring set but that's going by memory, which often leaks worse than your oil cooler!

Ken has looked for things for me, even going out and measuring them. I'm sure they are not the only good Fords Parts place, but they beat the hell out of any around me!

Ya I figured, but the town I live in that is what kind of customer service you get. whenever you need a part usually you have to go online or travel to albuquerque. When I called the International dealer he treated me bad and acted like he didnt have time to deal with it. Even if someone knows of a website or something where I could order them.

I just finished that job, check out this thread,

Hope it's helpful.

OBTW the 6 ring setup has been replaced by the 4 ring setup. IIRC

If you have trouble getting those orings or gaskets, let me know

thanks for info I read the thread. I also came across another sight that showed part numbers for a 7.3 are the o-rings and gaskets the same as the 6.9 ?

 

[leftcoastjeff]

Not sure, but I think so, somebody else may know better.

I've got the part # from the Ford invoice right here,
1C3Z*6K649*BA "thick oring"
1C3Z*6C610*BA " thinner oring"
E3TZ*6A636*G "gasket"
E3TZ*6A636*H "gasket"

Total $44.29
Not too bad

OBTW, NO sealant between the headers, gasket and the block, so I've been advised!

The 6.9 early is the onlt differance in o-rings. They used a 6 ring setup thats obselete now from what I have heard. The 7.3 is the same as the 6.9... At one time there was a differance if the actual cooler bundle too... There was a not turbo and a turbo bundle... Now all thats offered is the turbo bundle. All it has is more fins per inch count and thats a good thing...

If you can get me the exact part numbers of the o-rings you need, I"ll check here in Albuquerque at Bob Turner Ford. I get a 20% discount on all parts since all my company trucks are serviced by them. I have employees that work for me that go up to Farmington once a week or once every other week, so if your not in a big hurry to get them, I could probably get them to you that way.

Sorry it took so long to get back with you I have been trying to find out it those part #s are good for my truck, so far it looks like they will the only thing I need to know is if mine is the 6 o-ring set up if I will be able to use the same cooler with the 4 ring set or if I need to change the cooler, so I think I am going to try and find that out and this Sat. I am going to take those part #s into the ford dealer here and see if they can order them, I think that they were seeing the inner o-rings as being obsolete and said they cant get them but if I show them these other #s maybe I can get something done and if I run into a problem I will get with you and see if you can order them there in Alb. thanks for your help
