Nate, injector o-rings was one of my first thoughts, but that shouldn't cause the whole driver's side bank to shut down should it?

I appreciate that Todd, but not necessary! LOL!! My son was in Crosslanes today and I had him pick me up a compression tester at Harbor Freight. The same one you got I'm assuming, it was $29.99, U.S. General brand. They had one on their website for $149 that specifically listed Ford/Navistar 6.9/7.3 diesel.

I'm thinking maybe a solenoid too Rick. It gets worse as it gets warmer, and it doesn't always shut down the driver's side bank, but when it does, that's got to be electrical. My next test is going to be changing the solenoids one at a time with the ones from the other truck. I may not get to that until tomorrow evening though.

Reps have been sent to all you guys who offered to pitch in and buy me AE! LOL!! Like I said, I greatly appreciate that offer and it makes me feel good that you guys would do that for me, but please, you guys don't do that, I would feel terrible for you guys spending your money on me!
I couldn't rep you Glenn, sorry. For some reason, I can never get you and Mike

One of these days you'll get that sucker figured out Bill. I'm no genius, but I think its gotta be electrical too. I thought from day one it was uvch, but that's not it. It still seems electrical to me, but I'm glad you're the one working on it! I say that cause I don't really like electrical work, then I remember I'm doing all new SD style vc gaskets and harnesses, plus I have to figure out that stupid short...
Good luck, great offers from everyone!

Bill we all know what it's like to have something just flat out kick your a$$ trying to get fixed and although we've never met, you've helped me and countless others. I wouldn't think twice throwing in 20 if it was a means to helping you get this resolved. Not only that, but I'm sure you'd be the first to offer the same to any one of us, that's why we all have no problem trying to give you an FTE Xmas present! I'm trying to get something worked out with another memeber as we speak and he's being very generous! That's what's so great about this site. Sharing the love!

Bill,I have never met you in person.You are the salt of the earth good that is needed more.I know you are not interested but I don't really care.I consider you a friend and hope we meet someday.
For anyone wanting in....I'M down. If he don't want it he can give it away.I think its the right thing to do . Heck loan it out if you want.I don't care.

You're right, I've never met any of you guys, but I would help any of you any way I could, but not to expect anything in return. All you guy's money is as hard to come by as mine or anybody else's, and will feel guilty for accepting something this big. Just the fact that you guys are willing to do it means more to me than anything I've ever done for any of you, so you guys really don't have to do anything. You guys are the best!!!!

You guys are all awesome! I wish I could help ol' Bill out, but he knows way more than me. I do good just to be able to give him a hand every now and then, and I don't get to do that as much as I'd like.
