New clutch slipping.
Over torquing pp bolts... and if one broke or stretched then the pp clamping force will be weaker than should be thus causing slippage and or chatter unxer load.- riotwarrior

Only cranks after being plugged in
Not really true... If you have air intrusion from bad return lines caps that cam be an issue but if lift pump is working a 25k swap hardly worth it. Lets deal w 1 thing at a time. Since u already ordered without testing old ones.... 1st MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BERU ZD1 glow plugs not some other...- riotwarrior

Replacing water pump tomorrow, tips?
Funny...not 1 recomendation for rtv....perhaps because it can mess up the oil cooler bad? The dingle berries can break off inside and clog the oil cooler tubs thus effectively making it useless. JM7.3CW- riotwarrior

This is indicated in the FSM and it has been my best practice for 30 years w nary an issue with dry bearings. You can go full load when done this way...no fartijg around jacking truck up...- riotwarrior

7.3 IDI Injector Stuck in Head
IMHO the upper is stuck in a mass of carbon buildup. You can attempt to put some lateral pressur on the top of injector...side to side and for and aft. This may work it enough to slip it up.. It may require a side hammer or some variant of said tool to work upper half out. Then grimd down...- riotwarrior

Head pull and replace
Worn guides do not always show as soot build up. There is still a good chance of bad guids and a crankkng compression test does not induce near the same forces or issues a running engine sees. At cranking speed the valve has a lot more time to seat and hold pressure than a running engine and...- riotwarrior

Head pull and replace
Without changing both heads you have likely no way to know for certain if it was the head you repaired and installed or the other sides head you did not swap. You had 2 heads rebuilt correct???
