Need Insight for 7.3

[Rico]

Patience and plenty of gloves/WD-40 and it's not that bad

Ugly injector in there. :ford:

Did the copper washer/oring oring look good on that injector?

 

[Rico]

They were black. I sent them away as cores

 

[old man dave]

Maybe combustion leakage through the non-sealing washer ate up the orings causing your problem.

 

[Rico]

I think you're right. The injectors had some serious burn marks. I have 1.5 injectors coming soon

Well I'm hoping that tomorrow I'll get a chance to fire my truck up. I had the heads milled flat with a valve job, pressure tested and new injector cups installed from a machine shop. I Bought and installed new injectors, adrenaline hpop, electric fuel conversion, diamond eye 4" exhaust with muffler, engine temp sensor and switch, rebuilt IPR, melling lpop, riffraff water pump, new hoses and thermostat. I also ordered many body parts since the truck is sitting; new carpet, headliner, front door panels, new dash pad, CD player and speakers, door weatherstripping, new headlights, turn lights and the other lights in the front assembly. It's been a lot of work!!!!! Also new AC compressor and dryer. I had to power wash the truck a few times once all of the demo was done. Many years of dirt and dust collecting!
