The Ford 6.0 STC HPOP Fitting Update Kit was the redesign of the high pressure oil pump for 2005 and newer Power Stroke diesel engines the "snap-to-connect" or STC fitting used to connect the high pressure oil pump to the oil supply branch tube has been problematic. The two piece fittings have a tendency to flex causing wear on the seal and the locking ring resulting in leaks and occasionally the complete separation of the fitting. When a leak occurs at this fitting, the engine may be difficult to start or may not start at all. Depending on the severity of the leak the engine may stall, sometimes abruptly and without warning.

The included bracket is designed to support the fitting and branch tube and eliminate the possibility of the fitting to become separated.

KIT INCLUDES:

• 1 Support Bracket
• 1 Hydraulic Pump Seal Kit
• 1 Branch Tube Adapter - Male
• 1 HPOP Adapter Fitting - Female
• 2 M6 X 35 mm Branch Tube Bolts
• 2 M8 X 60 mm Pump Bolts
• 1 M8 X 45 mm Pump Bolt

The STC Kit was developed containing a replacement fitting, connector and a bracket that supported the assembly preventing any movement of the branch tube and connector, and is effective in preventing STC fitting failures and continues to be an approved repair, as well as preventative maintenance.
