    Did you get a chance to see the video? Do you mean just tightening down the bolts and seeing if that works? Is there a proper sequence? Thanks.

    Anyone have a guide to pull a 7.3 idi?

    I'm almost positive I have a HG leak and will need to pull the engine. I have found guides for the powerstroke and for the 7.3 idi with turbo but would like to find a 7.3 idi specific guide. I dont want to do any extra steps or miss anything if possible, thanks all.
