Trouble with 7.3L again.

Got tired of mileage it get now. Before that it was 17 mpg now it 13 or less. Fuel gauge moving to E quicker than I usually see.

I order new EBP sensor let hope that fix PO475 and transmission shift issues. Old one was randomly work right when it stop work then trans shift so hard.


I been try find way to hook fuel pressure gauge. Problem is I had gas pressure gauge for one with schraeder valve.

There are lag on acceleration pedal I would say random 3/4" nothing happened that on highway. If it toward to big hill you would push 1" more it didn't exact respond for like couple seconds before boost up.

I forgot code but it say Exhaust low is that related to Turbo EBPV?

you can pick up a kit from Guzzle that installs a schraeder valve adapter in the fuel filter bowl.

You need the adapter to put the schrader valve on. Fuel pressure test ports are #4 ORB, all the schrader valves I found are NPT. You need part #13-001 and 13-005.

The adapter goes from tapered pipe threads (on the schrader valve) to straight pipe threads with an o ring (on the fuel bowl).
