IDM

Hey so I have what I believe is a bad IDM, I want to try a working one before I drop 500+on a new one. But all I have available to me is a 1998 IDM will it work to just see if everything else is functioning? If I plug it in for a minuet to see if the injectors start opening up again?

thanks
Lucas

1998? Is it out of a van? I think that is the only thing available in a diesel in that year. Anyway, as long as its a 7.3 powerstroke idm, it will work. You can find remanufactured idm's on ebay and other places for 150 or less. I bought a 120V idm for a spare for 125 bucks on ebay. Tried it, worked, put under the rear seat in the spare parts dept.

Any 7.3 liter power-stroke IDM will work.
