Thats a 7.3, if it wasn't too abused and the fluids were changed somewhere around factory maintenance schedule that engine should easily go 500k to 750k miles. The guy in the comments was right when he said thats not how you start that truck, you need to turn the key one click until the glow plugs heat things up a bit about 15 seconds and the sgiggly light on the dash shuts off then in gauge the starter. I have a 02 and I have people walk up to me all the time wanting to buy it, they are perhaps the best engine ever put into a pickup.
This is a common misconception. it is not necessary to wait on the glow plugs unless it is stupid cold outside. Like in the teens or less. So the vast majority of the time you can just turn the key and start it. People just say things or repeat things like that and assume its true when its not.
Glad you could get it running and sell so fast. Nothing wrong with a quick flip Tyler. Enjoyed the video my friend 😁👍 Keep at it, be safe and happy wrenching 🔩🔧
first thing you need to check is your valley hpop area for leaks and lines are seals up tight and glow plug connectors are all good under the valve cover are you glow plug harness are notorious for coming un done will leave you stranded in limp mode but it worse than limp its usually dead right there will run rough than die never restarting
Hey man I don't know if you're up for this but I was wondering if you'd be interested in letting me buy this truck off you for 1,5 I don't know if that is enough for you but it's what I can do rn.
