My truck needs a new IP and injectors and it just so happened that my neighbor had a whole motor taking up space in his garage. It's a 92 model 7.3 N/A motor. It's got "NEW" but 3 years old, injectors and injector pump from Pensacola Diesel. NOW here's the strange part......
He had the IP and injectors installed, drove it to work and it sounded like it was ticking. Loosened lines and isolated the number one cylinder. Put another new injector in it and same thing. He said he didn't notice the knock before the new parts. So he opted for a whole new motor. I bought the whole shebang for $375. My question is: do you think it's a wrist pin or could it be the pump? Either way I think I got my money's worth. It's got the wiring harness, new glow plugs, new clutch, new IP and new injectors. New parts were installed by a professional diesel mechanic and have about 25 miles on them give or take. They've just been sitting in a garage.
