1997 F350 7.3 Wont Start. Please Help
So today the truck started fine like normal. I turned the key, the light came on. I heard the glow plug buzz, the light went out and then it started right up.
Tonight I drove over to pick up some food, came back out to the truck, the light came on and then went out but the buzz didnt stop. I cranked it and nothing. I turned off the key and waited a few seconds. Again I turned the key, the light came on for only 1 second and again it just continued to buzz as long as I had the key in the on position. And again no start. anyone have any ideas?

Water not good. Do you have a stock air intake, the filter housing on the left wheel well? If so, I don't think a water issue. If some kind of aftermarket, than check it for water inside. Need to see why glow plugs staying on, bad relay, timer unit? If the truck was still warm while you tried to start, it should have started without the glow plugs. Something could be up with the injector computer not putting any fuel into the equation. Just some thoughts.

I drove only a block from my house so it wasnt warm, needle hadnt even moved yet. I have an aftermarket filter but it is dry. The CPS is only a couple months old. I swapped out the silver recall one with the dark gray/ purple o-ring one from International. Ill throw the silver one back in and see if that does anything.
