7.3 powerstroke won't start HELP!!!
 

i was driving and i blew a high pressure oil line. the low oil shutdown kicked in and the truck died. i replaced the line and filled the truck back up with oil. but it will not start. i have checked all fuses and relays, the fuel bowl heater. i thought the loop might have gone out or seized up but from what I've read and been told that is highly unlikely. it was popping off ether but now it won't even pop off ether. when i crank the truck the tac moves. any ideas??????:argh:

Is the high pressure oil reservoir full? Pull the 1/8" plug in the top and if not fill it up and try again. Be careful using ether it can blow back and grenade the turbo. If you need to use ether disconnect the glow plug relay.

how long have you been cranking on it? If you emptied enough oil that the truck shut off hopefully the hpop isn't screwed but, youll have a bunch of air in the system so it may take a while to build pressure.

Yeah i filled the hpop and ive been crankIng for days now killin the batteries and yeah im aware of the dangers of ether but thats not even workin anymore.
