    1998 E350 power stroke speed sensor on eo4d tail housing purpose?

    Thank you all, I drilled the hole and got a worm gear for the shaft. Then Magically a 1988 diesel transfer case appeared on MP. I put that under instead of attempting my modification.. did not check the shaft or sensor gear since I was in hurry.. extended the original wiring. The e350 shifted...

    1998 E350 power stroke speed sensor on eo4d tail housing purpose?

    Thanks lotzagoodstuff, With all the Quigley parts I had from my old ambulance it should have been easy,. And probably for other more experienced people it is. Now it turns out the rear drive shaft has to be 2" shorter because I left the bus rear axle in place.. . Will see if it holds up.

    1997 7.3 powertroke E350 no start

    Yes this is a Quigley, were you able to see that from the suspension mount? No smb but we used to camp with it. Then it sat for a couple of years because we got a small E350 psd schoolbus. Converted that to 4*4 using a Quigley setup. Unfortunately I had an accident with that one and am still...

    fuel bowl to head lines

    Could it be that when the engine cools down and the diesel contracts that air get sucked in at the Schrader valve. That Schrader is the fuel pressure test point at the fuel pressure regulator ...basically a check valve. Johan

    Thread drift ahead. This e350 is converted to 4*4 . I have had for 25 yrs now.. at some moment I put a 2 tank wvo system in it with TIH heat exchanger. Had some fair share of mechanical pump issues..and some fair share of swear words to get to it.. so ultimately I knew it had to go. You can...

    Mr. Greens keeper, thank you, The problem started happening more often.. the IPR is a sob in the econoline. Always wanted to do fuel bowl delete and thus was the time. IPR harness and connector damaged. Insulation of wiring and rubber seal of the connector gone and slimy. Maybe wiring...

    1997 7.3 powertroke E350 no start

    Yes all is original. No tuner.. That would be possible. Do the icp or ipr randomly malfunction and then work again? Sofar I have left the kam fuse of and it seems to have no ill effect. It was just strange that it started right up after I pulled the kam fuse. I can wire a voltmeter over the...

    No. The towing company set the bus straight up and towed it to their lot.. they unfortunately started it without me being there and said it ran and was not hydrolocked...

    Help. Slow start after accident with tip over

    Zero miles. Happened two days ago. Before tip over started first crank now it takes 5 -6 seconds . When it fires it runs smooth. I have not driven it because the steering link is bend. Last night I straightened it so I can try to see how the engine runs under power.

    1997 7.3 powertroke E350 no start

    Thanks lotzagood, Yeah it has been a while, I have a spare but the tach signal comes from the PCM who gets it from the cps. I would like to think since this is all digital that if the tach signal is there that the CPM is good. I could see if the cpm supplied the tach signal and the PCM that the...

    1997 7.3 powertroke E350 no start

    ok , thank you, I will try that also and see if I can simulate a no start. Also missing neutral to the ICP might do the same thing.

    1997 7.3 powertroke E350 no start

    Thanks Jasper, I will try that, If i understand the ICP voltage versus pressure table then 500 psi = 0.85 Volt. Now that is the feed back signal from the sensor... A lower voltage is a lower pressure that through the PCM controls the IPR. So for a low actual pressure the PCM has to think that...

    IP wear tolerances

    Today I got a PM message from someone else with hot soak issues. Unfortunately before I could get to a complete detailed understanding of the IP issues we had a serpentine belt failure and an overheat issue. After correcting that issue we blew a head gasket within 100 miles. We choose not to...
