have ford 95 with 7.3 powerstroke. bought this truck with fuel problem. problem is raw fuel is coming out of drivers side motor. truck runs and starts good. have new injector seals. have one changed so far. do you think that could be problem or is it something else. I am new. and have not got no one to give me any answers. I need help, don't want to change motors unless I have to
pure fuel is dripping, we took exhaust pipe, my mechanic says it is dripping out of exhaust, but it runs and starts too good. it is very hard to see but I think also it is line. what about the diesel in the oil. do you think new injector seals will stop that. I put new lift pump and new lines on and changed oil than found fuel running down exhaust. if it is coming out of exhaust what do you think that could be, thanks
If it runs good i would say probably the return line that runs near there us leaking if it was the supply line then the system would suck air hard to believe raw fuel would come out the exhaust and it would be running fine as far as i know the orings should take care of oil in fuel
I have a buddy with a SD.
He had fuel coming out his exh. Supposedly injector cups were his issue...I find it hard to believe and never seen or heard of anyone else having that happen. But he swore that's what the shop that did it told him...they pulled the heads to do it...they hosed him imo
Could you take a pic if it where it's leaking and post it
would be hard, if I could see to takr pictures, I would know where it was leakoing, it is very very hard to tell with turbo in the way. I am going on what my man says, I think it is coming from lines. I am going to check more mon. I just wanted to know if it was possible for it to come out of exhaust, so I would know which way to go, it drips pretty good wherever it is coming from. but it don't come out exhaust at the rear of truck. we took pipe loos from left side. and they said it was coming out of exhaust. but looks like it would come out the back if it was leaking in the exhaust. that is the reason I think it is li ne. any help would be appreciated
I guess that's why I'm confused about where you're talking it's coming from if it's near the turbo there are two steel return lines that connect on the back of the heads i have a spare motor I'll take a pic tomorrow
There are two fuel supply lines that go from the fuel pump to the backs of the heads. They have square cut rubber seals in the fittings at the heads. There are also fuel rail plugs in the back of each head that have o-rings. I would look at those two things first. If the truck starts and runs good and smooth, then I doubt it is leaking out of the exhaust, especially if it is running down the driver side of the engine. I almost guarantee you have a fuel line or fuel rail plug leaking.
