I can't seem to solve this problem.
My 7.3 has a very poor idle problem. This came about after some revving trying to get out of the snow when I was stuck. I'm not seeing any coolant/oil mix or white smoke and it runs like a sewing machine when I step on the throttle, it just shakes alot at idle and I hear a knocking type noise on the left side that is only present at idle. I put new return line on, new fuel filter, and checked for leaks with a clear hose. Starts up just fine. I'm stumped at this point, just want to see if anyone has any ideas. I haven't got any compression numbers yet, don't have a tester.
Thanks, Nick.
