Hey guys! So its been a while since i've really done anything in the IDI section. A few years ago my old faithful 91 F250 with the 6.9 decided to give me some major fits, it went through 4 fuel pumps in like 2 weeks and was just getting tired in general when i found my current daily which is an 06 F250 with the 6.0 which i love. but that meant ol' blue got pushed to the side.
I ended up swapping injectors and pump with the ones out of my old plow truck and that cured my fuel pump problems. I had an injector stuck open pushing compression into the fuel system killing fuel pumps. that was the start of the repairs with it but it has sat for the last 2 years. last year I put the snowplow on it, fixed one oil leak, swapped in my 60 front and took compression of the worn out 6.9. I cant remember the exact numbers but I do know one was significantly lower than the others. that was last October.
FAST FORWARD! It sat all year till September, I had a coolant leak that I never fixed last year, a mess in the plow wiring, bad battery cables, no block heater and various other issues, and no time to fix it. I was on debate to sell the old girl but our winter forcast is looking snowy so i figured id better keep it, and the IDI bug hit me. I bought her a new bed, i ordered cab corners, fancy strobe lights, new plow lights, bought another NA IDI with a 5 speed I think its a 93, not sure bought it sight unseen haven't gone to pick it up yet, and possibly another IDI for parts, and have slowly started work on it.
This picture is from when i first bought it in 2014 or 15. My avatar is it in 2016 or 17 just before i bought my 6.0, i think that trip was the trip that killed that injector. it was a 1200 mile round trip to get my sister in Albert Lea Mn, when she broke down moving back to SD from Wisconsin If i remember right it was close to 24k pound total weight.
