My truck is a1996 F250 and it calls for a

IDM-100
F6TF-12B599-AA

more stuff on the IDM but I'm thinking this is what I need?

What other years if any would be good enough to get it just to run and not hurt anything do you guys think?

Any IDM for a 7.3 1996 - 2003 will work. The newer ones are a higher voltage. If you can find a IDM 120 for the same money, jump on that.

F350=6 had told me:

==================================
That being said, is this one you've given me the link to gonna work for me? It's sure not listed on the description there.

Thanks

I just emailed the guy with that IDM to see if he'd care if I just stop by to pick it up, a short trip for me, he's just over in Romeo about 20 mins or half hour from me... that would work nicely.

Thanks guys,

wifie likes your puppies but I told her no, no more, uh uh, nyett

Well, bought it and pick it up tomorrow AM, how's that for working out nicely?

7.3L Powerstroke Injector Drive Module IDM: eBay Motors (item 200515348161 end time Sep-03-10 20:45:37 PDT)

Oh yeah and he told me he got it out of a crashed truck that he has there with a whole drive train and more. Will see it tomorrow and report.

Thanks all for pointing me at it and I sure hope it's the answer?

Find out tomorrow morning.

Best,
Skip aka behoof

you should have fuel pressure for sure at least at first
. Is it on driver side frame rail like my 01? if so you should with some help be able to see if it is running. at least they are not that expensive if it is.

No, the OBS trucks have a mechanical fuel pump that works off the cam. No pressure unless you crank the motor.
