Question need help i am an idiot i guess!!!!!!!!!!

well i bought the high pressure crossover hose off of pure diesel powers website and i was wondering if anyone knows where the heck this thing goes..i think i see where it goes but dont want to mess anything up...dont laugh i installed the improved cps in no time and the cv bypass mod too lol thats because they came with pretty detailed instructions...please help dying to try this thing..o yeah how hard is it to do this fuel bowl drain and o rings the one on there now is leaking just little bit,but i want to fix it.. one last question does everybodys 7.3 powerstroke smoke like heck when it is cold in the morning..hope to hear something back from you super duty professionals...i am converting from gmc to this ford and i am loving it...

Kris-Steve- all you gotta do is remove the two plugs on the side of the heads. They are pretty much right infront of the head intake manifolds. They are if I remember 5/8ths plugs. It took me about 15 minutes to do mine. I got the SS HPX from ITP. I didn't notice any difference, maybe the engine did LOL??

That works fine as well. Just check it periodically to ensure it's not rubbing on anything, as it won't take long to wear through the braid. If you do ever get a wear spot, just put some spiral wrap on the line and that'll protect it for a while.

Kris-steve, here is a link to the install documentation for the KCM hard line courtesy of Dennis at ITP and KCM. Just imagine your hose where the hard line is.

Kris-steve you may have 1or2 bad GPs because that can cause smoke when you 1st start it. If this is the problem the smoke should stop when the engine warms up a bit.

No, they shouldn't smoke like heck upon startup. I won't get into that now, could be GPR or wiring or a gp or two but in the interum, heres a link to fuel bowl oring R&R.

Auto Enginutity can help, know anyone that has one or maybe someone around you on here. That is the easiest way.
