I'm very good with the 7.3 but need more info. First is it the powerstroke or IDI? and when was it last running?

since you say you checked your injectors im going to assume it's the IDI. I would bet on it being the injection pump has failed.

It’s a 99 powerstroke. it was actually the pig tail from the cps I dint realize that two cables were stripped and touching each other . Oops!.. for the injectors I used a buzz tester I have the car gage pro app on my android...
I Appreciate your input tho. Thanks

good to hear. if you have a good amount of mileagae on the truck i'd go ahead and pull the shift selector lever out of the column and check the wires that go to the overdrive button as they fray and short out. Just as a precaution maintanance or it will leave you stranded in the future as the fuse shares with the pcm

Yup, just did that six months ago overdrive went out. Other then this all I need to replace is the pressure pump and Intank fuel filters and hopefully I’m good for another 200k miles. Real quick seams you know about this, currently I have stock Garrett with edge evolution, I’m thinking of swapping the Garrett for a powermax or a KC. What’s your thoughts on the KC
