  • Circuitry.
  • Headlamp switch.
  • GO to Pinpoint Test R .

you can easily get the manual from the given link this is a safe and very helpful link i had tried it before http://toolsnyou.com/

If it has an inertia switch, it should be on the passenger side near the door.
I would first check the pump relay to see if it is sending power to the pump thru the switch. And do you have a switch for dual tanks ?

I have a 96 which had issues with the original ford pump at 28,000 miles. It would shut down after about 200 miles of continuous running in the high elevations. Col, and Wyom. Solution was to replace ford gear fuel pump with an after market turbin pump. According to the tech from the western states that this is common with high alt. and high temp running. ( have not had a problem new pump)

You might want to google recalls on the internet.

I remember one such on that or the F-53 chassis.

could be a short,but more than likely the bulb receptical has a worn contact so the receptical needs replaced.

It sounds like you might have a clogged catalatic converter on the exhaust system.

the only way you will know for sure is to try it. chances are it should be ok. depending on how far you plan to travel, you may want to have a front wheel alignment performed WITH the bike on the back, because if the front end moves up slightly it may change your camber / toe, adversely affecting handling and tire wear.

yes, on engine.base part #9155, Item #40, big round thing in picture

SECTION 303-04C: Fuel Charging and Controls — 7.3L Diesel 2000 F-Super Duty/Excursion/Motorhome Chassis Workshop Manual
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Fuel Charging And Controls Fuel System
The fuel system used on the 7.3L direct injection (DI) turbo diesel engine is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM) (12A650).
The fuel system components consist of:

• electric inline fuel pump (9350).
• high-pressure oil pump.
• fuel filter (9155).
• oil pressure regulator.
• oil pressure sensor.
• fuel pressure regulator (9C968).
• high-pressure oil pump reservoir.
• water in fuel switch/fuel heater thermostat.

Fuel System Components

It may be the evap system. Could be as simple as the gas cap. try taking the gas cap off and starting it. If it starts then its the gas cap causing a vacuum. if not, then it could be:

1. Fuel filter.

2. Fuel pump. undo the fuel pipe into the engine and check to see if fuel is being pumped. disconnect the coil lead so engine doesn't start. Be very careful and make sure you put a container to capture the fuel.

3. If fuel is being pumped, then it could be the purge valve and/or vapor cannister. If these are faulty, it could cause a vacuum and vapor lock.

frankly, the fuel system isn't something you want to mess with if you are not a qualified mechanic.

try these easy forms of diagnosis to see if the gas cap is causing a vacuum, or if your brave enough, try the to see if the fuel is being pumped into the engine.

Good luck
