Fuel In Rad
 
any advice as to why my 7.3 powerstoke with 115,000 kms. is getting fuel in the exspansion tank? Thanks.

Moved this in here cause I would personally consider this an emergency. Be sure to keep us updated on this one, it sounds interesting.

WOW!!! How's it running? Real shaky like it has a miss, running good? What mods have you done to it, is it all stock?

Sounds like you have a cracked injector cup.

Texas_Outlaw 08-06-2008 01:13 AM

You do any checking or need to know how to determine some things???

I got a PM from Norm and he said the truck is fixed and that the problem is the O- rings in case anybody else runs into this same thing.

His PM: So the injector o-rings/sleeves/cups failed somehow. The fuel was filling up the rad reservoir and leaking through the rad cap, making a mess of the undercarriage and puddling near the front passenger tire. Time to replace the aforementioned parts. Ford said you need to rip off the heads but you don't need to. You just remove the a/c and heater box and go to town on the injectors. The injectors are cooled by the coolant and if the o-rings are failng it sucks. P.S. If this happens you must consider replacng all the rad hoses etc.
