6.9 engine breakdown?
Another question. Figured Id just keep posting on here to keep the topic chart on a minimum with my posts.
I have the whole engine apart replacing the head gaskets and got those damned glow plugs out. The glow plug system is fried. Going to go with the manual one with the solenoid. Best bet on this. Next question anyone have an explosion diagram of the engine? Do see what goes where? I remember but would like a guide.. As well as where are the taps for the gauges? as in RPMS, oil pressure and coolant temp? The truck never had them hooked up considering it use to be a gaser then the guy dropped the 6.9 diesel in. Going to buy some aftermarket gauges and hook em up

tach pickup is in the timing cover. someone sells a tach that has a signal pickup off the alternator pulse. i don't remember who though.
coolant sensor is in driver front side of the block, oil pressure sender is in top middle of the back of the block.

For an aftermarket(gasser) tach, you need one of these: DSL-1E: Universal Diesel Alternator Tachometer Interface
The tach sender on the 6.9/7.3 creates 53 pulses per crank revolution. This box amplifies and divides the signal to make it work with a standard tach.
