    Rebuild on 7.3 idi

    Thanks macrobb for the clearance reminder! Question on boring the 7.3: any way to tell if the walls are too thin? Cavitation is already a concern, especially with an engine with 200k and an unknown history.

    Rebuild on 7.3 idi

    I am in the same situation as the OP: using 2-4qts/100miles. Assuming nothing is obviously wrong, How much does a machinist need to be involved? No doubt there’s room for opinion in this question, so perhaps some ranking of what YOU consider the necessity. I will suggest the system of 1-5: 1...

    Considering ‘91 idi van: suggestions?

    I own a ‘92 f-250, so I have some idea of what’s involved with maintenance on the idi, my bigger concern is access with the van. How hard are routine maintenance items, including glow plugs? The van is a long way away, so before I commit to looking at it I want to know if I should be considering...
