Just out of curiosity, doesn't the 7.3 have a mechanical fuel Injection pump?. ...if so, how does it prime with air in the lines?Quote:

If someone here buys it and keeps it in decent condition, I'll buy it from you when I get back from Trashcanistan.
The 7.3 uses oil pressure from the high pressure pump to activate the intensifier piston in the injector. A stock injector will have a 7:1 ratio so with 3000 psi of oil you have 21,000 psi of fuel coming out the tips. All of this happens inside the injector body. Fuel pressure between 40-70 psi is all that is needed to feed the injector. Hope that helps.
I thought you meant the seller himself. I've met more than a few people whose gears were a tooth off.
Ok, I just read up on on the High Pressure Oil fuel injection system...interesting...Quote:

My wife's hiring the hitman as we speak.Quote:
