    6.9 IDI w/7.3 Powerstroke Turbo

    I have not run it on a dyno, and might never. It makes enough power for my needs. Riotwarrior I live in Sorrento B.C .

    6.9 IDI w/7.3 Powerstroke Turbo

    Used the tp38 since it was cheap and flows good on compressor side. Ebpv was retained to use as exhaust brake, and warm up valve, have yet to try it though.

    TECH 101 engine chuff/ valve breaks POST MORTEM

    My old 7.3 I had, had a chuff out the exhaust. I did an compression test on it, all 8 came back good 440 plus. I decided to pull the heads to rebuild them since the engine had 310,000 kms. All the exh valve guides were as bad as riots like BAD. I was told by the rebuilder that knurling was a bad...

    Think I killed the IP

    How long have you cranked it? Ive had the power wire come unhooked on my carter pump. It caused the truck to have no power and then shut down. I hooked the power wire back up and it fired up again. I would think even with a bad injection pump it should still produce fuel at the injector lines.

    1994 ZF 5 speed, loud knock, please help diagnose.....

    Sounds like the dual mass flywheel is shot. Take the flywheel inspection plate off and grab the pressure plate (in neutral), and see if theres rotational play between it and the ring gear. I believe over 1/2 inch is worn.

    DIY Injection Pump Reseal

    I have rebuilt 2 pumps so far with no special tools no calibration. Once you get the pump apart u will notice that it is very simple and is easy to take apart reassemble. The 99009 stanadyne manual has a different pump model pump parts wise. The cam ring pin is not threaded it just pulls out of...

    BB code Delphi new $50.00ea

    I paid $45 an injector at kamloops fuel injection a year ago so they should be the same price there. If you do buy a set through ok injection get them to pop test the new ones so that you know what they are. Kamloops also tested my old and new for free and tore apart an old one to show me what...

    Cavitation fears - any way to know if cavitation exists with block out of truck?

    I think I paid 60 bucks for the pressure test and $1000 for sleeves and sleeving. Use the melling hardened sleeves as they will last longer.

    Cavitation fears - any way to know if cavitation exists with block out of truck?

    The best way would be to pull it down to the bare block and have a diesel machine shop pressure test the block. Then if it leaks have it sleeved on all 8 holes.

    Hydroboost pushrod interest

    For the brake pedal issue I just drilled new holes lower on the booster bracket for the studs to position the booster lower on the firewall and put the studs in the new holes for the 250 pedal to work.

    Lifter knock

    A bad lifter in these engines will make quite a knock as the lifter has a bit of room to go before being collapsed. To make sure the bottom end isn't the culprit you could plastiguage the crank journals to rule that out. Also two gallons of coolant sounds a bit much my truck usually takes 1/2 to...
