Ford 6.7 baws: how do I tell if my DEF is deleted?

Is there a giant spaceship on your exhaust system? If not, it's deleted.


ETA: DPF looks like this

Is your DEF fluid level falling?

Does it roll coal?

I assume you would have a tuner on the dash somewhere that Ford didn’t put there. If it’s a newer truck your truck should go about 4K-5k miles before it sends you a message stating it’s getting low

How many baws are deleting these diesels now? I’ve always figured you’d get in some shite for it when it’s rolling coal going down the street.

Folks have been simply leaving parts in and hollowing them out to look stock.

I’m a bit out of the loop as I haven’t paid attention in a few years but I don’t think as many are doing it now since it’s harder to get the tuners with the EPA crackdown.

I deleted mine many years ago after my DEF sending unit went out, it was like $1000 for the parts to repair and have it happen again later on or $1200 for the delete. Mine doesn’t really smoke unless I really get on it hard and I try my best not to do so.

Plenty still are. It has only slowed down because the average guy is worried about getting a fine. There are a few 2020+ we run with that have deletes.

I don't think they can legally sell you that truck deleted and if they did you have them right where you want em.

Well I didn't ask him specifically if it had been deleted. Just if any "aftermarket" work had been done.
