Swapping 6.9 into 92

[Greenmachine]

So what about the fuel restriction sensor? I think I can splice the fuel heater in too the wire in the pic , assuming that's the correct one? Ya I measured both brackets should bolt on. And also thank you guys for all the help so far!!

I'm not sure if the 6.9's had the restriction sensor. If not, they aren't "that" important long as you keep up with replacing the filter.
Or find a junkyard and get a newer one.

Alright, I'm going to pull the injectors tomaro and test them , I noticed a littel fuel leaking around them when I started the motor before removing

We'll I did not get to the injectors today, but I did bolt on the alternator . Changing the pulleys was a bit harder than I thought lol also installed the bullet style glow plugs and temp fixed my power steering. After the injectors I'll be ready to put her in( the pic is before I started on working).

Wait, That's a 7.3 controller? Did they ever come stock on a 6.9? If not, Then someone in the last 28 years retro fitted mine with one and deleted the stock one and put a pipe plug in its place. It wasn't "rigged" in either. It actually bolts in like its supposed to. And mine is an actual international controller. Although, My wiring looks different....

The 87 6.9 came with the 7.3 style controller in the above picture. The 83-86 6.9 had a "controller" in the back side of the drivers side head. The problem with this controller is when it failed, it failed in the on position... cooking the plugs. The 7.3 style controller fails off.........

Good to know. Not to terribly familiar with Ford IDIs. Just bought my first one 2 weeks ago and its dead. I have worked on the 6.0 but it was mostly PM services. I'm more used to the 6.2/5 in the hmmwv.

Tonight's progress , tested injectors, new o rings . Will the nitrile ones work? If not what should I get??. Put the motor in and hood back on. Tomaro going to start hooking things up like exshuast wiring harness fuel lines , if I get far enuff I'll bleed the injectors and maybe start her up

 

[Greenmachine]

Alright getting close just a few things left. But I need some help guys!??
First will the nitrile orings work? ( I had a dream they melted) lol
Second I have two connectors and a long single wire that I did not find a home for ?
What are they and were they go, besides these I'm about ready to finish this swap !

 

[79jasper]

Long single wire might be horn.

That would make sense, thank you 79jasper

The other rectangular one I don't recognize. Maybe seen it before though. If it's up by the front, I'd say daytime running lights. But I believe it needs more wires.
I'm sure you already know the two pictured together.

Ya I figured out one is a headlight plug mainly becuase I found another on the other side lol felt pretty silly about that, heres another pic of the square plug and were it is attached, the single wire is red
