New to Diesel need info

[m2b1969]

Hello All:

I am new to repair of diesels. I have a 2003 F250 Super duty my dad gave me, it has the 7.3L powerstroke in it; and I want to learn the components. I have a chiltons manual, but honestly it does not really give in depth component identification. What is a good manual or where can I go online to find component identification for the engine components? For example I also thought I had a leak from the fuel/water seperator bowl and I purchased the o-ring kit, well I stil have a leak but now I think it is coming from a component where the two mounting bolts that hold the water/seperator on go thru; I believe it is that component that is leaking at the back end and I don't know what it is called. ANy help would be greatly appreciated. If I am not posting correctly or in the right area let me know.

Thanks

Darby

this is kinda the correct area, from what I can tell you are speaking of the HPOP, and this site is the best place to find ANY thing you want to know.
