IDI running issue...
Filter has been changed and he just changed the injection pump with another good one he had on the shelf. Didn't change a thing as far as how it ran. We will try using clear hose to check for air and see what the results are. If that doesn't help, looks like injectors may be coming out? It runs...- 94f450

IDI running issue...
A friend of mine has a 93 NA 7.3 that he has been trying to chase down problems with. After a 3 hr trip in the truck he came home and let it idle for awhile. The truck started to run really rough and has progressively got worse. He can make the truck do it by holding the throttle around 2000 rpm...- 94f450

New guy here needing help with 7.3 turbo F450
Well guys its been awhile and I had to focus my attention else where... I got back in the barn and started going to town on the truck. The truck was holding gears a very long time... like you had to get out of the throttle for it to shift. I have a buddy with 2 idi trucks so we set the TPS, and...- 94f450

Well this evening was spent out in the barn working on the ol' girl. New idler pulley, serpentine belt, fuel filter, front shocks (the rubber bushings were completely gone on the old ones), air filter, oil and oil filter all replaced. I believe the fuel filter was the culprit on the fuel...- 94f450

New guy here needing help with 7.3 turbo F450
Well after driving the truck about 10 miles today i found that my idler pulley is locked up... then the truck started to act like it wasnt getting any fuel and started running at about 17mph with the pedal to the floor to get back to the garage. Tomorrow I am going to be giving this thing a...- 94f450

Haha I will not try to steal the email address too lol. Ok another noob question, who makes a good pyrometer for the money? That's at the top of the list right now. Also would a boost gauge be worthwhile?- 94f450

My goal is to only have around 5k in a clean, reliable, dump truck. The truck will be a company truck so it DOES NEED to be very presentable which is the...- 94f450

New guy here needing help with 7.3 turbo F450
Ahhhh I was wondering what gears these trucks came with since mine was singing at 55mph. I thought that I possibly wasnt going into overdrive but the 4.56 gears would make sense. Im thinking of just going to lmc truck for the replacement metal. New rockers, cab corners, and fenders are only...- 94f450

Well it seems everyone agrees that new injectors and injection pump are going to be needed! What about these "moose" injectors and pump I have read about through some quick searching. What kind of money difference is there between these and a set of bb injectors? Is the extra power worth the...- 94f450
