EBPV leak repair?
I think I have a leak on my EBPV where the linkage connects or a turbo leak. I was dropping off my company car at the Frod dealership the other day, and they have a 7.3 motor on a stand sitting on the show room floor, and while I was there I was checking out the EBPV & turbo trying to get an idea of what I'm in for.
My queston is on the EBVP leak how do you fix it? It looks like there is a freeze plug on the back and that is the only way to get inside the valve?
Also the parts huy's have a set of O rings for the turbo & pedital for around $20.00, and a complete EBPV rebuild kit for around $170.00 if it's the EBPV will I need the whole kit?
I thought I read a few threads where all that wass needed is a couple of O rings.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Seeing that motor on the stand is kinda neat it makes it easy to see the back side of the motor VS while in the turck, and it would make working on it nice, but I know that ain't an option.

www.dieselsite.com sells a rebuild kit. i checked their site and dont see it but have before. it is around $160 i believe.
you have to remove the pedestal, and remove a large snap ring in a groove from the left side of the pedestal, and the valve and arm falls out.
