Probably ought to do some of it yourself
All of us Ford boys were trained up on those 6.9's and 7.3's (all of us who wanted to be trained is more like it)
I'd hit the dealer or find an old retired Ford diesel tech
I am a master tech who will not touch one for a few reasons
Main reason I have stated for 40 years is
"You get some of that diesel on you and you won't get laid for a week"
For that reason alone, I don't mess with them for drivability problems
Find yourself a Ford diesel supplement book or new model data from around 88 or so
Those books go over some of the diagnostics
