    Joined the 7.3 club.

    Been looking for a 7.3 or 12v for way too long. Had my heart set on a manual, 4wd crew cab, which turned out to be pretty hard to find. Actually passed on almost the exact same truck for the same price a couple weeks ago and was kicking myself for it. This one popped up on FB and I jumped...

    Head gaskets - 7.3 IDI Ford Van

    Cheap E350 van with n/a 7.3 IDI for sale caught my eye. Being told it needs a head gasket. Is pulling the heads doable with engine in frame? With the cavitation issues on these, is it worth testing the coolant to see if it was at least running the proper additive?

    7.3 sending unit

    Ran into this sending unit on a rollback I'm working. Upfitter is out of business so asking them is out of the question. Truck has an aftermarket tank that is 13" deep and looks to be using a non factory sending unit. Where in the world do I even start with this? Anyone ever source a custom...

    7.3 Powerstroke Swapped 96 Bronco

    Hey, what’s going on guys! I’ve been a member on FSB.com for a long time, but I thought it was about time I started a thread over here. FSB seems to be fading away a bit, and my Bronco is starting to get to be a bit more of a wheeling rig, so it seemed right to post it up here. I started...

    2000 7.3 Hard Start

    Recently got a pretty decent deal on a 2000 7.3 Excursion. Wasn't really what I was looking for, but the price was right and it'll likely be a stop gap so I can get rid of my current truck and until can find the right 7.3 or 12v 1 ton. ~380k miles. Supposedly had injectors and glow plugs...

    7.3 Powerstroke Starter Upgrades?

    Starter in my 99 F2Shiity Super Poopy is getting weak. I’d like to replace before it totally shits the bed. What options are available for upgrades? I’ve read 2000-2003 will work. Anything else I’m missing?

Trying to figure out what it is... seems to have a drip of ATF... but I...

    OBS 7.3 Experts Please Step In - Rebuilt Fuel System - Rough Idle

    Finished up doing a fuel system redo on my 1997 OBS F350 7.3 Powerstroke. It starts up and idles smooth for the first 8-10 seconds, then goes into a rough idle. It runs strong off idle, though maybe seems a little light on power at highway speeds. This truck has 375K on the ticker and last...
