Check everything on the out reley filters etc... found that the air cleaner hose was broke at the turbo

how can I check the cylinders for compression? 7.3 by the way

your going to need a compression tester for diesels. gasser testers wont work. plus your going to need a glow plug adapter if the tester doesnt have any adapters with it. but, i would wait a while and see if marc comes by and see what he says

Marc will know what to do. There are some things you can check but I better let Marc take care of this one, I don't want to send you in the wrong direction. He should be in here shortly...
