    Any concern with these compression numbers?

    Not that it would fix everything, but sounds like a dimes worth of advance would be instructive.

    KansasIDI’s 1986 Ford F250HD 7.3L IDI

    Earlier you mentioned the fan clutch being bad. That, of course, could cause overheating. Does the fan roar like a tornado when the gauge shows hot? If not, it's not working.

    Broke down

    Every time my '86 has acted like that there has been water in the filter. Only saw it by dumping the filter out into glass.

    New injectors and pump. Exhaust smoking.

    Just read the last page in this. When the rental timing units were first going around I timed my three idi's @ about 10 degrees advance w/one @ 10.5. That was 5-8 yrs. ago, no problems. I do, however, have egt gauges and don't do peddle to the metal towing. All three are tidi and a joy to drive.

    Trade trucks?

    Yup, Take some leafs out (easy!), get 6 or 8ply tires instead of 10, retard the timing 4 to 6 degrees (quieter). There. New, wife friendly, truck!

    She eats glow plugs

    While a can't remember the brand my manually operated glow time is 3 seconds in the summer and 5 in the dead of winter. Always starts. Came to those numbers by glowing them out of the engine and that is what it took to get red.

    Project Queso

    Probably depends a lot on your use. Running lite w/little or no towing or extended periods of foot in the fan. My '94 IDI is stock except the 3" aftermarket stuff on the turbo and a little more fuel. Set it at 10.5* years ago and enjoy the snappy accel. w/great fuel mileage (20mpg) but seldom...

    1994 7.3 turbo IDI exit part to tie exhaust to

    Why not try ATS? They made that outlet as an upgrade to the factory turbo that they designed for Ford.
