Benny yes that is the groove . And yes it does look machined not wore . The discharge tube did not look like it did this . I have owned it sense new it was in for the EP recall and they told me they put a lot of parts in it new turbo and ( other stuff ) that was at 64000 . When they flashed it things went bad and they had it for a week. So who knows what was put in it .

 

Mike when i pulled the pump when i first turned it , it was kind of catchy and smoothed out more i turned it . Do you thing i need updated cover or will this one do ?

 

This wouldn't happen to be the dreaded 06E17 reflash that caused headaches for SEVERAL 2003 owners would it? If I recall correctly, this flash caused trucks to bog and hiccup randomly. It turned out the EGR valve was cycling randomly to cause these symptoms. I believe cleaning the carbon off of, or replacing IAT #2 was what the final fix was for this fiasco.

Do you have a part number list with all the parts changed?

 

Do you see any rub through marks on the discharge tube? If not, I think you'll do fine with the cover you have. If you do see rub through or witness marks, replace the cover along with the discharge tube.

 

Mike they gave me nothing but what i did get was a truck that was not the same as it was before i took it in . What i mean is it did not spool the same as it did before . Its was bad *** quick and then was not I was pissed . It ran fine but didn't have the hole shot it had top end was the same .

 

No worries Mike I really Appreciate your Time to post this pictures




Thanks For Schooling ME and The Rest of the FTE crowd that Didnt know these Change


So is the only Diffrence the ADDED Recessed area

If it will let me I will send you Guys some REPS

Thanks for all the Info Good Stuff

 

No it didn't tube looked fine . Mike that cut was not done by hand with a die grinder , looks machine cut .

 

It looks Machined to me too

Wonder if all the first HPOP Covers have the same relief Cut???

 

Yeah Dave, I was looking at that picture of yours, with great interest. It does actually look like it was there since new. But as you can see from the pics I posted in post #12, you can clearly see what was done to update it. But like I said, if you don't see any damage to the discharge tube, I say you're good to go, to re-use that cover.

And yes, you are correct Benny. That IS exactly what changed. If you still have the original cover on yours, it would be beneficial to have yours changed up. Remember, a new cover will come with a new IPR valve installed in it. Just make sure you open up the package first, when you receive it. I have had a couple that the connector on the IPR was damaged while in transit. This is as a result of poor packaging. BTW, the part number for the cover is 3C3Z-9G805-AA if you're wondering.

Gawd, I should be getting a commission from FoMoCo, every time I post a part number. It seems like every time I do, members buy these parts in droves.

 

Benny i have heard that many have had problems with them rubbing though .

 

Ok this is where I'am at i finally made up a test thinky to air test my HPOP system from discharge tube to injectors , the pump is out . Ok put air on it and nothing at first ( no leaks ) but after 3-4 mins started hearing air . It is coming from the drivers side oil rail or injectors , i'am thinking center back . ?? is how do i pin point it from here ?

 

Oh also wanted to say got me AC in garage today , so nice and cool working on truck .

 

Ok just got done with my wife's steoscope and air is coming from either second injector back on drive side or where braided line goes into oil rail .they are right beside each other.

 

Just S's and G's, uncouple try to uncouple the braided line from the standpipe. Try turning the standpipe by hand or an 18mm open end wrench if you can get it on the hex. If it spins, REPLACE IT. If not, pull all those 5/16" bolts off the rail and have a close look at the top of the injector you speak of (I believe cylinder #6 by what you describe). Did it blow its top? How about the circlip?

 

is this with the New HPOP on David
