    6.9 will not rev or idle right until return line is plugged

    Howdy fellas, I have my Dad's 1986 Ford F-250HD XL 2WD 6.9L/C-6. It has pretty bad air intrusion (Surges idle, dies, won't rev) until I hook another line to the return output and put my thumb over it and put pressure on the system. I replaced the line that goes from the lift pump to the frame...

    Looking for fusible links!!!!

    I can't imagine how the voltage can get as low as 6v-9v, unless you have a massive draw somewhere.

    You'd probably need a CDL to drive it as-is, with the ambulance body.

    The first one I've seen fail, was burning a ton of oil, had bad compression, and downright clanked more than it should. Another one dropped a valve, and tore up the piston and destroyed the connecting rod and block, another one had a TON of blow by. They might not have all been related to having...

    I wouldn't turbocharge an N/A IDI, the Stock turboed '93 and up 7.3L IDI had beefier rings and other components, and I've seen a ton of messed up IDIs that had aftermarket turbo kits.

    ether damage?

    Southern Oregon ay?I'm in southern Oregon too. Did you ever put sulfer additive in the fuel? If not, the lube-lacking fuel probably wore out the IP.

    1990 Ford Lariat F250 7.3l IDI 4x4 Electrical issue.

    https://www.revbase.com/BBBMotor/Wd I used this site back on October 4th, no information required, I got diagrams for my Dad's 6.9 and 6.0. But now it redirects you to another page, and appears to want information.

    7.3 idi boat engine?

    Why not a 6.9L? You'd have less cavitation issues.

    Anyone looking for a dually?

    The fact that he used some speech to text ("2 will drive"), and no bothering for punctuation and grammar at all, kinda hints he's trying to sell it in a hurry without really caring. And he says it's "turbo diesel", I doubt it has any coolant additives, so the cylinder walls are probably almost gone.

    Need you electrical gurus....

    I fixed the lights on our '83 E-150 by doing individual wires (besides the rear license plate light, which the fixture is completely brittle and broken), Now I have to fix other gremlins on it, but I dread doing it because behind the dash, and practically everywhere on it, it's cramped, barely...
