Hi Everyone, i am new to this site .thank you in advance for any advice given.
i have a 1996 7.3l with 335.000 on the clock and my issue is a crank no start.
took it to a respected repair shop in my area and was told my issue was one
that a scan tool would not read. a little background..i replaced the hpop with
one from a reputable rebuilder .at the same time i replaced the ipr with a motorcraft
replacement part.and replced the icp at the same time as i was told this is how the repair
shold be made.still crank no start.the glow plugs ,under valve cover harness and one
injector have about 18 months on them.glow plugs are motorcraft the harness is made
by dorman products.i have had the truck scanned and a code came up for the cam pos
sensor and ehaust pressure sensor i replaced both sensors and cleaned the supply tube
to the exhaust sensor.still no start.i also replace all fuel supply and return lines and the
manual lift pump when installing the hpop.this is making me crazy.the truck will start
right up and runs fine when i spray brake clean into the air cleaner.btw did the injector
buzz test as well and all injector solenoids are working.the truck actually began starting
on its own with out help for a short time about a week then stoppped ...im lost please help
