    Don’t run a shroud with my swap and it never goes over a 160

    6.9 idi problems

    Try taking the thermostat out completely, if the temp still rises might be something more serious. I’m still running the stock 3 core copper brass rad in my 73 1210 no overheating issues, 6.9 idi swapped. And I tow all the time with it, sounds like it might just be a stuck t stat. Also I’ve been...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Worked the crap out of my 6.9 idi in my international 1210, then put used oil in the fuel tank and ran the crap out of it again. Lol

    Which One Would You Pick for a Gasser Swap; 6.9, 7.3, or 7.3 PS?

    PSD no questions asked, yes more wiring but not that hard and so worth it in the end!

    1993 7.3 idi 2wd e4od strange problems

    Check the brake light switch, and also the third brake light. The lock up is tied into the brake light circuit.

    7.3 idi swap for 7.3 turbostroke

    Yes drive by wire does not have the same “feel” but the power over the idi is so worth it. Also injector replacement on a 7.3 psd if you know what you are doing only takes about 2 hours. Yes also the computers do take a **** every once in a while, however as long as you don’t have a California...

    Looking for Advice on a 7.3 IDI Turbo Build

    You’d be surprised what a stock idi can do well maybe not, I have a 6.9 with a banks turbo kit zf5 and 4:10’s and 37” tires I pull my dump trailer almost daily. Does just fine haven’t even turned the pump up yet. Yeah she is a dog but she will still pull it, depending on your budget honestly...

    Has anyone ever had a hard fuel line break?

    Recently had a very bad fuel leak on my 6.9 IDI turns out the hard line coming out of the injection pump broke right at the fitting. Had this ever happened to anyone else? Had a lot of these motors but never had this happen. Ironically enough all the return lines don’t leak.

    E4od idi

    Check your brake light bulbs, also check the brake light switch. E4OD’s do wierd stuff if the brake light system isn’t in order because it’s connected to the trans computer

    IDI swapped 1973 International 1210

    Also truck now has an unknown mile 6.9, banks turbo kit that was on the truck when I bought it. Plans are next year to swap a low mileage 7.3 powerstroke in her. Plan to do injectors, a drop in turbo and hopefully make 400-500hp and about a 1000 lbs of torque. Will post pics when it happens!
