2001 7.3l no start!!! driving me nuts!!

[ARivest0347]

i have a 2001 f 350 7.3l that had a bad HPOP or so i thought...i replaced it and still not start...not its got good oil pressure but still cranks and cranks and no start. i replaced the batteries with brand new one and got good fuel pressure

it will run just fine on a small shot of either but other than that will not start..so it seems like its not getting fuel

any ideas??

I had the same thing happen to me on Saturday. Driving down the road and truck just stopped, crank and no start.
Shop thinks it is IDM, they are waiting to get a spare to test before ordering a new one.

Are your glow plugs working correctly? GPR good? Any smoke when you try to start?

Have you checked ALL your fuses?

You shouldn't use ether on these engines, just FYI.

small shot of ether is not horrbile, but just a squirt. it can hurt the GP's

are you getting a check engine light? If not its more than likely a fuel problem. fuel filter good? if you drain the fuel bowl, and then cycle the key, does the bowl fill back up?

check ALL fuses. Are you getting a WTS light? if not check the 20 amp fuse on the lower left side of the box. its the one that powers the PCM...

im not getting any smoke while cranking...i just replaced the GPR but i will check that and the GP 2mrw..i have checked the fuses but i will test the all with a test light again..

there is no check engine and i am getting a WTS light...fuel filter is new and the fuel bowl fills right. i pulled the PCM fues and it looked fine!!

hope that helps...

Could be a bad pcm.

I would pull ALL the fuses and check them, just to be sure.

Is there a chip in the PCM?

Is the WTS light turning off like normal?

Batteries fully charged? (load tested?)

[ARivest0347]

ill pull all and check 2mrw...there is no chip. the WTS goes out just as normal. batteries are brand new just put in yesterday...they are duralast golds

Just something else to check while your in there.... There is a wiring harness on the driver's side valve cover, right under the intake hose and CCV that rubs on the valve cover and sometimes exposes the wires.... may be worth checking out.
