Now I know....

As you all know I parted out a 1990 F350 standard cab 4x4 with a 7.3. I found out today the reason why, they (the people before me) had started to part it out......
Was this caused by too much EGT ?
Anyway I am looking at it as an "o well" situation as I was planing on have the block sleeved back to 6.9 specs.

I would think that was a bad injector causing a hot cylinder.

I bet that cylinder has a hole in it.

Me too, but I was thinking that was an after affect.
