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.
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).
Never load ether in an old IDI. It bends valves and potentially rods. That's why it kept locking as it was cranking. I wanted to reach through the screen and take the can out of your hand as I was watching.
Makes me wish I had never sold my 93 F250! The old turbo diesel was awesome! I drove that truck for 15+ years and only sold it when my knee's started giving me trouble and it hurt to push the clutch. I never hooked on to anything that the truck would not move!
Vacuum pump is thst sound u hear and the rear I probably 8x170 and put a 4 inch exhaust on it will sound good and put a bit of atv in the tank will lube Injectors so no knocking
Not sure about those rear hubs but those rear calipers are on the the wrong side which is why the bleeder screws were at the top. It should be at the bottom which means the left side needs to be put on the right side.
Without watching the rest of the video, the newer Ford wheels and disc brakes in the back make me wonder if someone did an axle swap at some point to Super Duty axles
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
Maybe when your son grows up you can tell him about Harry Chapin. He sung and wrote "Cats in the Cradle" That song is about him and his son growing up. I tell my 3 boys to pass that song on to their boys. Just a suggestion. If ya get some time listen to that song. Thank you for the video.
Oh I know that song all too well. Gets me right in the feels. Only difference is I always want to give my children time. It’s hard to appreciate the moment, time is never enough.

This is true.
hi from Indianapolis,Indiana 😊
Hello!
Without watching the rest of the video, the newer Ford wheels and disc brakes in the back make me wonder if someone did an axle swap at some point to Super Duty axles
Yep. Someone did
The rear axle has been replaced with one from a newer truck. I could tell the second I saw that hub
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
Someone was definitely trying to do all the right things with it.
That truck simply needs some tlc. 7.3 idi turbo diesel, manual. Somebody would gladly buy that and restore it.
I’m gonna put it up for sale to give it a chance.
I want something like that
Good ol 7.3 idi turbo
The more u spray it the more it doesnt wanna start
where is this magical place where you can just drag crew cab OBS's out of? I wanna go!
South Texas! A couple late nights and I drug home 2 of them!
Time for Tonya Harding wooo
The IDI Motors require half throttle to start in this situation. Easy on the Cosby sauce.
I learned that more and more as it progressed. Yeah I’m not a fan of the ole Cosby bit it fit the” bill” in the moment.
99 and up Ford is 8x170.
Lay a gas soaked rag over the intake and it helps a lot more that either and safer
Good to know.
Yeah I'm with the other guy here. This truck needs a clean,fixed and just drive it
I’ve got too many to begin with, plus I’m really looking forward to making my f-250 a lot better with these parts.
No better way to get a IDI 7.3 going . Peg would approve
Truth!
Anymore time on that fuel filter going say ur huffing
There is possibly worst to sniff lol
holy shit that red 10th gen ford is identical to mine
Cool!
is that red crew cab for sale?
That truck started has plenty more life someone would restore that worth to sell it to a good home
Must be a 7.3l idi.
