Its located under the hpop, sticks out towards the fuel filter. Yes, they are expensive but a lot of times its just the O rings on it are bad or that tin nut on the end is loose. It takes a big socket (can't remember the size) to get it out. The one replacement O ring is split, when I bought one I thought I had a bad one, lol. If you do remove the IPR, take the tin nut off and slide the next section off. Then you need a deep dish socket.

the correct o-rings from international are 19 dollars a set. thats the most common problem based on your current concern

yep this just about has to be IPR o-rings. they sell just the o-rings at ford or international. get some and replace them. the o-rings are cheap.

The cool thing is it threw a CEL. That will give you a good idea as to where the problem lies. A lot of times we don't get the CEL.

True. So Costco has readers, has anybody seen them? Will they work for our trucks? My partner has one too, but its always nice to have your own equipment.

So this is my theory. The o rings dont leek when it is cold because the oil is thick and slow, however as the oil warms up. It gets thin, enabling it to slide past the o rings easily. Is that correct?

Joe, you are correct about unplugging all of those sensor.

Blue- just borrow your buddys and check it out. You may need to clear the codes and wait for the CEL to pop again.

I gotta ask, did you check the oil level after that hard run? definately sounds oil related (IPR or otherwise) also whats the level in the HPOP when it won't restart??

Definitely a temp related problem or a big coincidence. Have you read the codes yet?

Yeah i read the codes today. It had no codes. I talked to international and they wanted me to plug off one bank of injectors from oil. So i took it out warmed it up and plugged off the passenger side oil line. It then fired up on the drivers side bank. So they thought for sure it was injector o rings. So I spent the better part of today putting injector o rings in the passenger side. It started and ran fine till I shut it off at home again. Still no start. Next I am going to try and get o rings for the IPR. Ford nor international had any. I really hope it is the IPR o rings, other than that I have no clue. I am getting very frustrated, I need this truck everyday for work and this really throws a wrench in that. This is just fueling my light duty diesel hating streak I have been on.

Do you have the international part number? They said they cant get them separately from the IPR?

I would have tried these o rings first but I cant seem to get my hands on any till next wednesday, however I need my truck now.
