7.3 idi Help again

Hi again, so i made a post away back asking for help about ny truck randomly dying and wouldnt start again. At first I thought it was my lift pump so i went and replaced that, then it started but would only run for a little or til it got up to temp. I replaced the injector pump. Found a used pump at a junk yard for 20 bucks, not really sure if it works but spins and sounds like the pump is working. I have tried it a couple times and still nothing. Idk what to do if someone could tell me how to test the pump with it installed or tell me to check something else thats be fantastic. Thank you!!

Question Cruise control parts ???

I have a 93 Econoline (motorhome) with the 7.3 diesel that the cruise quit working.I have the Ford manual and have run the tests and determined that it is probably the actuator i would like to try a used part but 7.3 econolines are pretty scarce in the junk yards,i have read that this was a part used on some other Ford models but the number on the part is not actually the Ford part number. I know there is a retired Ford parts man on here so hoping he will see this and advise what other Ford products have used an actuator that can replace the failed one that i have.Thanks Don
