    The flexwheel adapter hub? Is is just pressed on? I did not look that close? I was getting dominated by that flywheel!

    Will a 6.9L flywheel work on a 7.3L?

    The difference is the crank on a 1983 6.9L the threads start right off the bat. On a 1992 7.3L the threads on the crank start around 3/4 of an inch back. What is a good place to get the bolts online? Will 7.3 manual flywheel bolts work?

    Will a 6.9L flywheel work on a 7.3L?

    The 6.9L crapped out in my truck so i am doing a 7.3L swap. The 6.9L was a 4-speed and the 7.3L was an auto. I tried to reuse the 6.9L flywheel bolts and the flywheel on the 7.3. But the bolts would not even start in the treads on the 7.3L. I did some measuring and the bolt are too short...

    6.9 is down revised

    The fuel filter is new! The injectors are old not for sure how old. I have an extra set of injectors i am going to throw on and see if that is the problem. Would a stuck open injector really make that much noise and cause that much hesition i mean it is really bad it feels as if it will...

    6.9 is down revised

    I pulled the valve covers and inspected the heads. Then ran the motor with the covers off. All the springs brought the valves closed. Notices that the rear pass cylinder smoked white-gray from the pushrods. I think it is the ip but i thought that someone might have had the same simptoms...

    6.9 is down revised

    I have a stock 6.9 except for little pump turn up and a stack. The truck started sounding like and old farm tractor about a month ago. Put-Put-Put... I noticed throughout the month (only drove it 4 times) the rpms droped from 700 to 525, along with the tractor sound. The other day I drove it...
