I have an 89 7.3 idi that cranks for 10 to 12 seconds before starting. I have read up a lot on these and still cannot seem to get it to start I have done the following
-replaced return lines and caps. installed clear line on pump return and it holds fuel.
- installed anti blled back valve in fuel line
-replaced fuel filter and it is always full of fuel when I take it down to look
- change fuel transfer pump
- removed injectors and had them pop tested and they were good.
- changed the O-rings on the line going from fuel filter base to rear of pump
- changed injection pump out with one off of a good starting truck.
- checked all individual glow plugs and they are all good
- checked to make sure relay is sending power to each glowplug wire and they are all good.
I have no fuel leaks and once the truck has ran for a little while it will start good again but it sits for a couple hours takes 10 to 12 seconds to start. what is wrong with this thing? any help or ideas would be great.
