Motorcraft FL-1995 is the 7.3 Powerstroke filter, usable on all 7.3 Powerstrokes(1994-03).@Thewespaul is that the part number for a 95 powerstroke filter? I've heard you can run them I just haven't changed over yet. I'm almost due for a oil change.
It works wonderfully on 6.9 and 7.3 IDIs; while the clearance is tight, I've never had a dent or scrape or anything from the filter actually touching anything else.
The IP is governed to that speed. It will keep the engine running at that speed forever without overspeeding unloaded.The only bad event I can think of that maybe bent a push rod in the past was when my throttle cable came off and it wot dry reved to almost 4K for a couple seconds before I knew what happened and shut it off I thought I had a runaway when I first got it years ago.
It's perfectly safe to run an IDI at WOT governed speed, though when you put a load on the engine, it won't rev as high(usually in the 3500 range).
There are any number of IDI owners who have driven at governed speed for thousands of miles across country with no ill effects.
Personally, I (with the lack of governor on my RD-110 pump) got an IDI up past 4500 multiple times. I ran into a problem /once/, when a rocker bolt actually vibrated loose.
I tightened it and didn't have issues soon afterwards...
Either way, it means that no, you didn't do any harm running it against the governor.
