Just looking for the "do it yourself" procedure for removing the turbo on a 2003 Excursion, 6.0 Power stroke. Ive already started to disconnect it, but im a little hesitant because i have never done this before. Please, any advice will do.

 

diconnect the air cleaner from turbo, be careful of the connector in the top of the tube, there will be one small bolt you will have to take out, its a small bracket that holds the aintake tube towards turbo, diconnect the pipe on left side of the turbo going to the intercooler, take it out all the way make it easier. disconnect the down pipe/exhaust pipe/ disconnect the pipe on the back right hand side of the turbo/ up pipe, this one is a pain/ diconnect the oil line on top of the turbo, 10mm wrench,,, next is the 3 bolts that hold the turbo down, the hard one is behind the exhaust pipe, use a 10mm socket with extension, go over the top of the exh. pipe to get it, you can just see the bolt underand behind the exh. outlet of turbo, the next 2 are easy, one on pass side and one on drivers side,, next remove turbo, pick up to get it off oil return tube, it just sits there, pull it from passenger side, kinda have to pull it up and roll it up a little to clear everything, watch out for the pos. post on the back of the alternator, it will come out that way, just take it easy and it should take less than an hour.. any more questions, just post it..

Got the Turbo out and reconditioned it, also changed the ICP sensor, and harness as it was on the fritz. Truck is running awesome, other than the small fuel leak from the fuel regulator gasket. Thank for all of the helpful info guys.

 

no problem, glad the info was helpfull
