kinked fuel lines
 

I recently acquired a 1995 7.3 f250 and its hopes are for my plow truck this winter. I got it from a friend on a trade for a ranger I had and he knew nothing about the 7.3, never even had it running. I drained all the fuel from it and cleaned the rear tank out and replaced the filters. I also changed the oil and filter and gave her two new batteries. It started and ran rough but I can work with that. It began running halfway decent then . This was all last weekend I wanted to drive it into the garage today and it was unning real rougah and stallednow it doesn't want to start back up.

I can see a section of fuel line was replaced near the motor and where the lines go up to the front of the motor it is kinked square and I believe that's alot of the problem bc it doesn't seem like its getting enough fuel. My problem is I don't know where these lines go and it is in one heck of a tight spot where its kinked

they go from a flexible line on the frame up to the fuel bowl. you can see the flexable lines thru the drvers fender well.

Yes, the flexible hose is what has been fixed by someone else and its kinked on the hard line about two inches from the fitting of the flexible line

you will probably have to replace the whole line. does it go to the blue or black flexable line?

Its black

i'm pretty sure the black is the return line.

Ill know more about it in the morning when its light out. Is this line available from ford?

it should be. they might have to order it in.

The hard line that is kinked is the larger of the two lines

huh. i thought blue was feed. at a idle, check the fuel pressure.
