Been running a Walbro GSL 392 fuel pump for 4 yrs now on my 2002 7.3 and it’s been no issues. $90 online (make sure it’s Walbro or A1 brand, a lot of knock offs out there) and it bumps the fuel pressure up a bit which seems to make a big difference with stock injectors.
I changed the lift pump as you suggested but for some reason after a while in idle it trips the relay. I swapped the relay with the fan relay and fires right up and runs untill it trios it again. What am I missing? Really need your input please.
What tool are you using to disconnect the fuel line from the pump..you mentioned using to remove and showed it but didn't name it..can you tell me the name please
Good info brother new to the 7.3 been about a year truck runs good but I do have a fuel leak got everything I believe to fix and replace all the topside o-rings thank you for what you do
If anyone has to cut the old pump bracket off due to rust DONT BUY THE $600 FORD PUMP, I found a solution where you can use two 2” diameter rubber insulated tube retainers / pipe clamps to hold the pump in place, you just need the aftermarket pump mentioned, the clamps and two sets of 3” long 1/2” bolts washers and nuts and you just run the long bolts through the two lower holes that the original pump studs went through. This is a permanent solution and has been working on my dads pickup for over 5 years now. Hopefully somebody finds this helpful.
Thank you Bill It sure has been a treat to see you on screen doing some of the grass roots 7.3 stuff It sure has been awesome seeing some Grass root stuff back on the channel
Again ! Thank you so much for what you do for all of us die-hard 7.3 owners. and thanks for the fuel pump numbers. I'm getting a extra one just to carry. I have done all the fuel thing you have shown. Bill please keep it up for all of us. We are 78 years old and still going boon docking around northern Nevada. Our 2000 F-350 4 door 4 wheel drive dually with a flat bed, it carries a 4,700lbs Lance camper (31 years old) and we tow a 20 ft enclsed trailer. We love you Bill.
I have a problem with my 2004 6.0. I was hoping you may have a suggestion to fix. Every so often it won’t start just long crank. I can vigorously wiggle the wiring harness under the air cleaner and it starts right up. Any help would be appreciated. Love your channel by the way. Thank you
Bosch 69136. I replaced mine with an aem 50-1005 at 270k miles. More flow, good to 450+ hp. Longevity? Don't know, two years and 20k miles so far! Rock solid pressure, with high flow, even on the biggest tunes!
I'm convinced that I lost an injector on my '99.5 7.3 years ago due to fuel starvation. I had installed an Air dog system on the truck when I bought it in 2005. Sometime in the future, the AirDog power relay quit working but the fuel pump was able to suck some fuel thru the AirDog unit. Just driving to work I never noticed it but one weekend I was pulling my 2500lb trailer, empty, on a 4hr trip that included a very long (several miles), steep uphill grade. About 3/4 of the way up the hill one injector blew and left me stranded. I then noticed that the AirDog was not running and traced the problem to the non functioning relay.
Great video! Love the old 7.3 PS content! I have an early 99 7.3 DRW 4X4 with 233k miles on it. Use Archoil fuel and oil treatment and love my 7 3! Thanks for the videos
Man I got this 06 f250 6.0 she spits and spudders at wot. Only has a 100k on it gotta tear down and replace injectors. My fuel pressure is weird. She reads 65lbs and drops below 40 lbs sometimes. But on startup the fuel reads 55lbs I'm like wtf lol
‘05 F-350 6.0 here in east Hawaii. Thank you for all your videos and solid advice. If y’all were here, or I was anywhere in the lower 48 I’d be bringing my baby to you and Mikey for a complete dealerproofing. Aloha 🤙🏼🤙🏼🌴🌊🏄🏼🌋
I just picked up a 2002 4 door larerit it's got 207,7xx it's got a anti surge turbo wheel a ts6 and sand b cold air intake if you bought it what would you change? I think I will need injectors in a year wondering if I should get it done now
New to diesel. I know the big 18 wheelers run the engines and don't shut them off on just to restart it. I noticed when you we're fueling you left the engine running. When I get fuel I shut it off. When I go through a drive through they say they can't hear me so I shut it off.....should I not be shutting it off so often? Love your vids keep them coming.
In my operating manual for my 7.3 it says do not leave the engine idling any longer then 10 minutes. Check out a video by adept ape titled how long should you idle a diesel engine. It will explain better on whether you should idle your diesel or not.
18 wheels leave engines running for several reasons. When there sleeping they have A/C or heat depending on where they are. The trucks use air brakes and keeping the tanks full takes less time to restart the trucks and build up air again. Also if it’s cold out you don’t want moisture in the brakes freezing and locking the brakes on.
Are there any decent aftermarket pumps that you’d recommend? Not talking about house brand parts store items or trying to be cheap etc..., but possibly higher performance pump that would flow more fuel than a factory part to absolutely avoid any fuel issues at high constant load...?
Love the 7.3 videos!!! 377k on my 2000 f350 that was parked for 11 years. Sometimes when hauling 7k lbs on the highway and hitting hills she feels so gutless. I wonder if since it was parked for 11 years the screens in the tank are clogged!! Definitely something I need to check.. watching in Memphis Tennessee!!
Hello 👋, I need to pay attention to this truck ! I acquired 2 of these 1997. F350 that haven't run in 4 or 5 years or more . Trying to make 1 good truck out of the 2 . Any suggestions would be appreciated 🙂 😊 !
I guess I'm guying a fuel pump! 155k on a late 99 7.3 I have since new. Thanks for the video I removed that fuel pump spring it did not help. Injectors buzz nice.
Yeah it will if you don't have enough fuel pressure you will know there's a problem it could be things other then just the filter or pump there's other things like the fuel pressure regulator. Pressure should be I think 50 to 68 psi under load not idle
Does anyone know if the E series have the screens in the sending unit? I have an extended 2002 , 7.3L with a midship tank and it does seem to be getting to be a bit sluggish on take offs. Pictures ive seen of the sending unit look like they may not have the screens in it so just wondering if dropping the tank to clean or replace parts in the sending unit would be a waste if there are no screens in the E series units.
Thank you, Bill! I have a '99 F-550 7.3 with under 100,000 miles. ...guessing because it sat for so much if it's life, it has needed fuel system maintenance. Your videos and website have been an huge help!

Like the info this guy knows what he's talking about unlike the diesel mechanic in illinois where they try to sell you on stuff you don't need

Put a new fuel pump in this unit , right Mikey ?

Thanks. I own a 2001 7.3 with 181k on it. Time to order that Bosch pump and drop my tank
Loving the 7.3 content!

Denso is another good trusted name in fuel pumps. I would definitely stay away from airtex and any of the cheaper brands.

Hello 👋, I need to pay attention to this truck !
I acquired 2 of these 1997. F350 that haven't run in 4 or 5 years or more .
Trying to make 1 good truck out of the 2 . Any suggestions would be appreciated 🙂 😊 !
I just piut banjo bolts new fuel pump stiffer fuel spring and a hydra chip nothing crazy but wayyy more power
My 96er runs a lot better on the Bio fuel vs petroleum....better giddy up and mpg's.....
Thank you Bill! I watch em all.
I've got a 02 7.3 that's got 485k, we're would you recommend getting a ECM for it, I'm not having any luck with locating one.
Why fuel pressure gauge is almost standard equipment. Darn cheap insurance.
Laughing so hard you not right in the head man so funny mechanic/comedian your right fuel pump very important I got to do mine I’m freaking lazy
First! Seriously though… thanks for the tips on the 7.3.
Now this it what’s a good video of explaining things
I guess I'm guying a fuel pump! 155k on a late 99 7.3 I have since new. Thanks for the video I removed that fuel pump spring it did not help. Injectors buzz nice.
will a fuel pressure gauge help identify any issues with a bad filter and/or pump?
Yeah it will if you don't have enough fuel pressure you will know there's a problem it could be things other then just the filter or pump there's other things like the fuel pressure regulator. Pressure should be I think 50 to 68 psi under load not idle
Hey bill what are you filming with. The screen is so small. Lol. Keep the videos coming. Always enjoy learning something new. 👍
13 letter shitspreader.....best diesel ever made....
