    CCV Modification for 7.3L

    CCV mod There's more benefit than you think, I guess if it's done right. I was at the friendly Ford dealer to pick mine up on warranty, and there certified diesel tech who was about 20 told me my turbo was going to fail early because of the CCV mod. He said thats how the turbo get's oiled. I...

    fpr mod

    The best program I came up with was the IT diesel end cap with the reg. gutted and plumb a adj. regulator to do the job. 105psi is the max pressure for all around performance.

    zoodad mod

    Zoo Dad mod A big jump ahead is to trim out the core support an put a 4" tube back into the stock air box. The results are noticable right away and with some plastic work can be adaped to any aftermarket air intake.:D

    Overdrive light flashing

    OD light Well, one of mine does it because of the chip and the other one did it because of a broken wire in the shifter harness. I think it was about $50.00 at the stealership.

    Shimming the FPR 99-03 7.3

    FPR shim Get a shop rag or two stuffed in the spaces under the filter housing so you can catch any parts that get loose. Also a small magnet set up where your working will catch most everything but the stainless. I was adding shims every month to keep the pressure up. I bought a new high...

    Shimming the FPR 99-03 7.3

    Fuel pressure Ya, thats not a job I look forward doing. I want to step up to 200cc injectors so I better start talking myself into how fun it will be.

    Shimming the FPR 99-03 7.3

    Fuel pressure Bill, I know you don't agree with me on the fuel pressure setting. I have 40,000 on mine at 105psi. The engine has 130,000 on it. Everybody agrees that the boost to 70psi is great but the jump to 95 to 105psi is awesome. Gillette diesel has seen close to 20hp at the 105psi...

    O/D light flashing

    O/D light Another cause for the blinking light is the harness for the shifter. It has real fine wires that break after a time.:cool:

    Shimming the FPR 99-03 7.3

    shimming I think was as easy as shimming but now I can adjust to what ever I want. You need the new cap from DI that has a 1/8 pipe port because you gut the factory reg. I mounted the reg on a alt bolt. Put 3/8 hose nipples in and use fuel injector hose. I had some parker push lok hose that has...

    Shimming the FPR 99-03 7.3

    Pressure Your fuel pressure shold be the same weather idling or 3500rpm. You either have a weak pump or weak relief. I'd look at the regulator first. I had one last year come to me with low pressure and the housing was broken and all the valve pieces were in the fuel line. This one was sluggish...

    Shimming the FPR 99-03 7.3

    Shimming I have the Gillette spring in my shop. It ran 120. I call and they said it would calm down in a few days. It did and thats how I discovered they will run on less than 20psi. I have a rolling test bench and didn't want to be stuck with one setting. I used the DI reg. cap replacement...
