Hello Everyone, I have a 02 F-250 7.3L Powerstroke, Ill start off from where the issues started. A few months ago I noticed that when I start the truck up, it was start up fine, for about 3 seconds then it would act like I put it in drive at idle and chug, puffing out some smoke until it warmed up. I was told it was the injector seals, so I went ahead and changed them with the glow plugs (while i was there), for the truck has 280,xxx. i started the truck up and it did smoke alittle, but quit. It ran better,and got the chug to go away, but just to be sure I let it run for about 10 minutes in the driveway. Here's the issue, after all that work I need to make a run to the store. so I hopped into the truck after the 10 minutes of it running fine, and made it about 2-3 miles down the road to find out the truck died, had to tow it back. The truck Turns over fine with no issues but will not start, not even with the help of WD-40 in the intake. I pulled all the injectors and glow plugs to make sure that there was not a issue with them, and scanned the truck to find no codes!! Still no fire. I need the truck for work on Monday. Please Help!!!

 

do you have any check engine codes? do you have the capability of doing an injector buzz test and contribution test? do you smell fuel when its trying to crank?

 

Have you replaced the fuel filter? Check the pump as well.
