The big tool truck is down and the crew is waiting on tools help please. I am at the shop so I hope you see this as an emergency. really need to get the job asap. where do I start looking ? the fuel filter is black and I will change asap but I dont thin that would keep it from starting.
I'll try this again in my haste and rush I kind of left things skimpy, so I'll try to explain better what I have and what it's doing. It's 1994 and a half Ford super duty 7.3 turbocharged diesel the power stroke has been running great for a couple years I haven't done anything but change the oil and I don't run too many miles. But I went out this morning to start it and it would just crank no start crank fast seemed normal, has got too good batteries. The tack was jumping up the glow plugs are working I pulled the fuel filter and the filter was black, so I put a new fuel filter in it filled it as full of fuel as I could at the filter, still no start. If I give it a shot of starting fluid it'll fire right up but there is no smoke to be seen at the exhaust where would you suggest I go from here.
