These older 7.3L diesels are worth 100% MORE than the EPA garbage choked crap the Big-3 are selling now at $80k or more. The fact you found a GOOD one AND it's a manual transmission is even better. 🙌

AMEN. I could not agree more. I paid 1500 for my welding truck and couldn’t be happier. I probably only have 5k in it and it’s waaaay better than a new piece of junk I could buy new.

Might be a mid year of 93 if it has a turbo, 94 I think was the only time the idi 7.3 had a turbo. Pretty rare to see them now. That rear end is out of an 2005 and newer superduty, they're actually wider than even the 99-04's and is the reason the hub looks so short on it. I wonder if they planned on doing the front coil spring dana 60 front axle set up as well? And with the reliability of the ole idi that would be a sweet rig

My '94 IDI Turbo is one of my favorite trucks. AND it'll blow the doors off of a first gen Powerstroke. It's straight piped and THE BEST sounding diesel EVER! And I'm a CUMMINS NUT.😊 Put a Holley RED pump on it, BYPASS the factory lift pump. WAY easier to prime the system, especially after changing fuel filter(s). International IDIs will NOT start unless you have a functioning glow plug system or plug in the block heater. I don't care if it's 90 degrees outside. Starting fluid KILLS these things. The glow pluds (if they're working) can ignite it and fire all of the cyliders at one time. It can break rings and give it that lopey starting noise your getting due to low compress from those broken ring cyliders etc.
@southernrevivalautomotive8 ай бұрын
Holley Green Pump is what we used on a idi. Seems to be the way to go! Idi’s are great.
@tcfinds8 ай бұрын
These Holley green and red pumps are news to me. This turbo truck is surprisingly peppy, I can’t wait to put the turbo on my f250. Yeah, it’s been cold here so it has not helped the probably no glow plug working factor.

International Harvester IDI (from Indirect Injection) engine is a four-stroke diesel V8 engine used in International Harvester school buses, trucks, Ford F-Series pickups, and Ford E-Series vans from the 1983 to 1994 model years. The engine was built in two displacements: 420 cubic inches (6.9 L), which was used in Ford trucks from 1983 until 1987, and 444 cubic inches (7.3 L), which was used in Ford trucks from 1988 until 1994 (naturally aspirated) and in 1993 and 1994 (turbocharged).
