just remember a lot of cranking if injectors have been out. takes time to fill the oil rails with oil.
also turn engine over with a breaker bar on the harmonic balanceer bolt to make sure he got the oil out of the cylinders. (remove injectors, 2 revolutions by hand then jump the starter and spin it )
if there is oil in a cylinder with no where to go it can hydro lock and bend a rod.

 

Damn, thanks for the tip. I'm actually coming,in after another guy disappeared so I have to figure out what he did and didnt do.

 

I'd leave the injectors in, and remove the glow plugs. Turning the engine over with injectors out results in more oil from the rails entering the cylinders, unless the oil pan is dry.

 

good catch I meant to type glow plugs

 

Decided this project isnt worth my,time, going to stick with what I got for now and look for a 7.3 in the future. Thank you guys for all your help, really good people here. Its places like this that show some people still just want to help others. This is what the internet used to be. That,ks again guys, I'm going to lurk here and learn as much as I can so this doesnt mean your rud of,me just yet!
