    Fuel Economy Drop

    that shouldn't be an issue on a 7.3.. the HEUI IS the "high pressure" fuel pump.. it slams a shuttle valve down on the fuel chamber when energized.. if the pressure was low enough to affect driveability, he gave it a cold pill.. masking the symptoms without "curing" the problem.. although...

    Missing/no power

    I'm going to bump this thread since there has been a new development.. My truck developed the very same symptoms last winter. Spent a good deal of grief and effort on it.. only to realize the fuel injectors on my truck were failing (worn).. I asked a couple of 7.3 engine guys on another board...

    Hard Start or No Start Cold

    Help Needed Problem with front locking hubs

    One thing you may be missing.. there is a needle bearing that the stub rides on where it goes through the backside of the unit bearing.. frequently this is damaged, or worn, and it lets the stub wobble around, binding the lockout. I've had to replace a couple of them because the wear was so great.

    Thanks again, Dennis

    Public thank you to member Dennis Pantazis for calming me down in a dire straight.. yes, it was the power steering pump. I quickly figured out that if I could keep the RPMs near or above 2k, it would make enough pressure to be at least driveable. TRICK WAS.. figuring out how to keep...
