  • Had a customer tow a truck into the shop today that came from another shop that told him the engine has no compression and will need replaced. Lets see if they are right or if we can get it started.

    It doesn’t need the glow pug relay to start if it is warm out. Mine wasn’t working for a few years, and the truck started up just fine, as long as it wasn’t cold out. If it was cold out, I would just plug in the block heater for a few hours, and it would start in the cold. I finally replaced my glow plug relay this year. By the way, the glow plugs draw around 90 to 100 amps when they work. I think you finally got enough oil pressure, and that is why it started, but I don’t know how cold it was there when you were working on it. Mine would start without the relay when it was around 50 degrees outside. Anything colder, and I would have to use the block heater. No problem starting in the cold now with the new glow plug relay.

    Mate - I will absolutely tap that like button - well deserved. Informative in terms of explaining about the HEUI system and how to do the basic's when having a crank-no start.
    Very happy to see people take care of theese old dinosaurs - not all have the money to drive a new vehicle or a Greta T. approved ride...

    Hi I’m sow happy for you , I just bought a 1999 7.3 slow crank no start , I put new battery’s , still slow start , we check the wires, ground connections , we connected power directly to the starter, still a slow crank , I just ordered a new starter , and yes my glow plug connections looks rusty , i tough they are just for cold season, I can feel how happy you are , man against machine. 😢😢😂🎉

    CPS, IPR, HPOP, Fuel Filter, Air Filter, Glow Plugs, Injectors. Just replaced all of those and she'll fire up easy. :) Good video though.

    that RPM needle didn't even budge 9:52 I would've thrown a CPS at it immediatly almost gurantee that CPS is going out... intermittent working is pretty common for a old one or a bad one. and it just will die and not start. and randomy might start working. if the customer brings it back because it randomly dies. or shuts off or won't turn back on throw a CPS in it.

    • @hrdiesel

      Good catch! The customer hasn't picked it up yet so Im going to check into it. Thanks for bringing that up!

      Look into your icp sensor and or ipr valve see if they have oil on the plug connector...also u can check for the common wire chaffing on the valve cover

      Oh sorry u did say u installed a new icp sensor....tell u what though there's a good chance your ipr siloinoid nut unscrewed and fail in the valley of the engine..so every time u go to stop the silionoid slides not making good contact..hopes that helps
