    Why does my 7.3 rattle sound so different using LE oil

    For 5 gal pails, is there a recommended transfer pump that works well? I'd rather not pour material to / from multiple containers.

    Why does my 7.3 rattle sound so different using LE oil

    I seriously doubt Ford has much data on the cj > ck impact to make a claim with regard to navistar legacy engines. They no longer care. I'm curious.. For the minimal money difference of the 8700, I'm taking delo out of the motor for the first time in the last 60k miles (15 yrs). The old...

    Truck stalls when putting in drive

    When the last converter failed it began to drift at shift, then eventually slipped. Started in reverse on first shift of day then was ok after. Then started to do it in drive. We troubleshot line pressure, looked for pump cross leaks, etc. Nothing. My trans guy first thought it was a pump...

    Pro Stock Powerstroke Mustang

    yeah, the most beating race cars take is in the trailer... we had bladders under all of the tube frame cars. The mustang has the goods to get it done next year.

    Why does my 7.3 rattle sound so different using LE oil

    Don't gain or lose any between changes so I'm sure it's very possible to have a little. May do an OA one of these days.

    Why does my 7.3 rattle sound so different using LE oil

    I hear an idle tone change after every oil change. It's funny since the oil never has more than 4k or so on it.

    Can certain oil instantly ruin an IPR

    The builder should go back thru all of them. The one worn poppet was survivable but the loose seat plate on the other could be the killer. The oil will keep moving from the pump and the fuel won't flow until the oil is restricted enough to make 500 psi. The oil rail could also drain from...

    Can certain oil instantly ruin an IPR

    ^^ this is what Ive been focused on. It wouldn't be likely that the IPR or pump would suddenly stop working with an injector change. But, poor sealing oil sides on re-assembled worn out injectors will drain pressure as fast as it can be put in. While there is still air in the system...

    Intermittently cutting out

    This^^^. service the fuel filter, drain the bowl, check your fuel. May want to disconnect the fuel heater. They cause an obs to die.

    Can certain oil instantly ruin an IPR

    He's got 30# of lpo cranking pressure measured in the res. No other troubleshooting result has been shared yet.

    Can certain oil instantly ruin an IPR

    Let's get some questions answered but I like the 30 psi cranking pressure-- the res is being easily filled. Gotta figure out where the oil is going from there.

    Can certain oil instantly ruin an IPR

    Ok, with good lpo and fill at res, assumed good pump and IPR, you agree the pressure looks to be lost downstream of the pump. With no pressure build, the whole output of the pump is lost somewhere. I'd look at following; -no electrical signal @ IPR to close the drain for pressure build...

    Can certain oil instantly ruin an IPR

    Oil isn't causing this.. Only 30 psi of lpo cold? The res is staying full? Can you deadhead the pump and build pressure?

    What Fuel system to install with my mods? fass?

    Once upon a time I thought I could get away with a stocker. Some guys have also reported help from a sump and bigger hose on the suction to help a stocker and seemed to work. However lots pressure drop over the length of plumbing during high demand. If you don't see pressure drop with...

    7.3 surging after oil change

    Sounds like air entrainment. I'd just take it out and drive it to see if the air clears out. Get some gauges on the low press oil, fuel and hp oil systems to see if there's an issue.
