    New truck need help 1994 7.3 IDI Factory Turbo

    So let’s say it is a mixture of parts. Does that change the reliability of the motor ? What reputation did dealers diesel have ?

    New truck need help 1994 7.3 IDI Factory Turbo

    I didn’t plan on changing it out. Is it easy enough job to swap out rear main as well ? How do I verify that it is in fact a turbo block ?

    Alright im back with more questions. I noticed that my engine has Dealers Diesel stickers all over it, does that mean it was rebuilt at some point? Tomorrow im changing out the flexplate with the one from Thewespaul. Any tips and tricks for that job? Thank you everyone.

    Is there a way to tell if the hot side wheel did get damaged without taking the turbo off?

    Some said Autolite, that one dose not have a manufactures name. I'm not sure when it would have broken off I just acquired the the truck and noticed the glow plug relay was ticking and decided to change the plugs out.

    Yes I do have a new gauge. The factory oil pressure gauge had been disconnected before I bought the truck. It would be nice to have them both work something about the gauge reading zero bugs me.

    I knew it was getting hot, when it hit 1200-1300 range I backed off, hopefully I didn't damage anything. I honestly know nothing about this trucks history, so im planning on changing out the injectors. Is there a way to test the IP to see if it needs replaced?

    Truck has a little over 250,000 when unloaded no smoke at all it doesn't smoke when fully loaded on flat ground . I have not seen any bubbles in the coolant or loss since I replace the radiator. EGT were hovering around 1300 while climbing a hill with a load, regular driving they are around 300.
