    6.9 High idle switch

    Idle oil pressure is pretty low on these engines, might be proper to idle it up for extended periods. I do. Wire up the hi idle solenoid.

    That previous post about the rust on your air cleaner cover should be your number one concern and project. A hydro-locked engine makes zero egt.

    94 7.3 turbo IDI

    Welcome Danny! I,m about 30 miles west of Boston. I'm running 2 of these engines in DD trucks for work and play. Easy to work on and dependable are two of their strong characteristics. While you are on the engine try to upgrade the turbo outlet to a 3" pipe and absolutely time the engine...

    7.3 IDI Injector Stuck in Head

    They 'could be' fine but historically they are near the end of their dependable life. Thing is, a new pump should accompany an injector change out so if $$ are short hopefully that old one will work until pump and injectors are an option.

    Dreaded tire sizes

    255/85/16 is one. not to mention the wider options like 285/75/16, both of which fit my F350.

    Careful. If you hook up exhaust and it is leaking that is a potential run away.
