No start issue
I ended up going with a stock rebuild from Pensacola Diesel. I just can't swing the $ for the adrenaline right now and heard mixed reviews on the 500. I know I cheapened out but I have a lot on my plate right now and I just wanted to get this truck rolling. They are great to work with and sending me another pump. No hpo with hpop dead headed. When I put the pump in it started up, ran for 10 min or so and died,, no hpo. My thinking is bad pump.
I oemed the ipr to the 42 pun main connector and check's out ok.
I tested the ipr plug with key on, both wires ok.
I made a pigtail using a old injector connector for the ipr and ran it to the battery, still no hpo.
I have 47 psi at the fuel shradder valve, but I do not think that fuel it the issue,, it's hpo.
I am totally baffled. I have a diesel mechanic coming over tonight to try to figure this out.
I have a Snap On scanner I borrowed and running some tests now.
KOEO test, code P0475, P0476 these are codes for the EPCV which is disconnected.
This is the crank live time data.
RPM,,,, 169
DTC,,,, 1
BARO (inHG),,,, 30.1
BARO (HZ),,, 127
EBS,,, 31
ElecPresCon,,,, 4.9
EPC,,, 7.75
FuelPW,,,, 42
IAT (V),,, 3.37
IAT (F°),,,, 60
InjCtrlPr,,,, only went up to 14,,,, need 500psi+
InjPrsReg,,, 15
MAP psi,,, 14.9
MFDES (mg),,,, 0
ManGaugePrs,,, 0.4
SCCS (V),,,, OPEN
VFDES (mm^3),,, 0
VPoWeR (V),,,, 5.00
VREF (V),,,, 5.01
I think the only issue I see is no hpo, need to send signal to icm to fire injectors.
No worries on pump. I waited nearly a year to save $100 on the Diesel Site sale in November. Save where and when you can is how to get ahead. Maybe they can refund you and someone has a used pump around? Mine was beat. Hotter the tune, the weaker the PSI. It was sad, even with my cute 90cc sticks.
Also, is there enough oil in the truck? I primed mine plugged in as I recall.
Spoke with PD and they are sending another pump.
Yes Truck is full on oil. Hpop reservoir is full. I also dropped the oil filter and cranked to see it it was flowing,,,, came out like the open flood gates.

I have had great luck with my 7.3 all these years.
Towed backhoes, skid steers, tractors ect. Never had a issue with power. Where I live and work it's for the most part very flat.

The pulsating ground going to the ipr in the ecm was bad.
I had another mechanic take a look,,, this kid is awesome. He did 3 hours of testing and finally cut the ground wire on the ipr connector,,, attached a wire lead and kept tapping on the ground on the battery,,, while he was doing that I cranked and wahla started right up. Installed another ecm on Thursday and has been running great.
Never read anywhere about this issue,,, I guess always a first.
