Fuel Injection Pressure Sensor

[BryantMarwitz]

Hello all, I am currently finishing up the rebuild on my 7.3 IDI while I was putting the injector lines on I realized that I've misplaced the fuel injection sensor. It also is called a pulse timing adapter. I've looked up the prices on them and they are pricy to say the least. In the likely event I can't find it, does anyone know somewhere to get them cheaper? Is the part that important I know the lines have to be a specific length for the timing. I was just thinking that if I had a another line that would make up for the length that might work.

Thanks!

Im down in San Antonio and have a couple dozen here. If youre down this way youre welcome to pick one up or cover the shipping and Ill send you one.

If you don't need that sensor for your timing tool, you could buy a #1 injector line for a van, and eliminate the part entirely.

I just removed mine as well. Replaced with van injector line.

@Thewespaul That would be amazing man I checked for IDI's in the junkyards around me (van and truck) there just aren't very many of them in the junkyard. So I can't find a number one line for a van or that little piece out of a junkyard. My mom is actually in San Antonio currently so I could have her pick it up. If you could email me a phone number so I can setup a time to pick it up that would be awesome. how much do you want for it?

It creates an electrical signal when the injectors opens. It hooks to a diesel specific timing meter that has a pulse input
