There is also someone in tri cities area Washington but still 5+ hours away does not help. I think I will retard if back to almost where it was on timing. Harder to start but runs much better then now.
So figured it defiantly timing. Loosened the bolts for the injection pump and moved it around. Advanced it about a dimes width. Now it starts just fine but hav thick black smoke upon hard acceleration and it runs kinda doggy. If I put it back to we’re the timing marks line up it runs awesome but...
With full batteries this morning. It tried to start but would not catch. Gave it to small shot s of ether starts right up. Tried to take a video but could not upload it.
When it's cranking but not starting, you are getting a lot of white stinky smoke out of the exhaust pipe correct?
Correct.
When the glowplugs cycle, your voltmeter drops down to around 8v correct?.
Correct.
Fast idle works. I did not change the pump timing. Removed the pump from the gear by removing the three cap screws on the front plate after marking everything. Put back together in reverse order after lining up marks on timing pump.

So I just got done doing new glow plug on my 1993 with the 7.3l in it. I have had a diesel leak up in the valley between the heads and intake manifoldsince I got the truck a year and half ago. I was leaking when I got just didn’t know where because of all the leaks I have fixed. Well I got...

I had my suspicions that it might be the glowplugs. In cold weather I have the block heater plugged in overnight. Like last night. What I don’t get it was working good and then all of a sudden it’s not.
The injection pump is worn out I know because it is leaking. I have one I need to get in...
So on my 1993 f350 it was hard to start this morning (29* truck bock heater was plugged in) I turned the key on and my wait to start light stayed on briefly. It went off in like less then 5 seconds and I heard a bunch of clicking from the relay up on top of the engine. And it just cranks over...
