hpop bad?

[dustindiesel]

shop just called and said the hpop needs to be replaced. the icp is reading just over 600 psi at 85% command..does this sound like a good diag? im only wondering cause ive read that the pump on these motors are really durable.but the fittings and orings are prone to leaks..the tech said he replaced a couple already on trucks with the higher miliage..what u think

With the readings you have that be my bet.

Look at a performance hpop - might as well upgrade since you're going to shell out some money anyway!

You'll be amazed at what a big hpop can do to your truck.

Did he dead head it?

not sure how he measured it but i talked to him on the phone and he has been a powerstroke tech for a number of years..so i hope he measured it the correct way..where can i get a performance hpop? will it be less than $745 from ford?? this sucks since it is 11 hrs labor to do the job

an injector o ring would cause that much of a drop in pressure?
