Most likely your IPR is not the problem. You describe the leak as the HPOP and the hoses. This is the most common leak area anyway. Most likely an o-ring is pushed out and needs replaced. Take a look at the link belw for HPOP r&r, that will help out on the details of how to fix it. Riffraff Diesel also sells the o-ring kits.

i would agree, the IPR is down in the valley not up by the valve covers.

 

The above picture its the hose in the middle (half plastic covering missing) that feeds into the driverside Head ??) Pardon my ignorance in diesel / mechanic talk as shop class was some 15 years ago haha - Where this hose feeds it actually appears to be leaking not from the connection its self but between the valve and the Head)
What Im calling the Head is the driverside part of the engine in which it appears the IPR and ICP are next to eachother - Its not the connection with the electrical connection its the other - The Ford Parts department looked at it and gave me a 25$ part That has 2 rubber seals wrapped around it - They say it isnt a valve its just a connection that goes there - They did however state that i would need a special tool to take the line off -

 

can you put a link up that we can just click on to get to the pic?

 

Pics updated - They also said that I would need a special tool to take the line off of the connection - Does anyone know what kind of a tool they are talking about?? Thanks for all your help already!!!! Also - This line comes off of the bottom fuel bowl and near the Hpop with a sorta of 90 degree connector and then the line shoots to where Ive been describing - There is also another simaler line that shoots off too the other side of the engine

This is the special tool - #8-6595 HPOP Hose Quick Release Tool - High Pressure Oil Pump - 1999-2003 Ford 7.3L

You can make one yourself if you've got some flat iron or a 9/16 motorcycle wrench, but this is easier.

All of the o-rings you need for your job are best found on this site. Bob is great and very knowledgeable. He will answer any question you have - most pages on his site have step by step instructions as well. Here's the direct link to the o-rings you seem to be needing - DieselOrings: HPOP Cylinder Head Quick Disconnect Hose Fitting Repair Kit 1999 - 2003 7.3L

 

I have the fitting and the O ring that go with it - Now my problem is getting the disconnect ---- well ... to disconnect - Where should I insrt the tool and is there a special technique to use ?? _ Im hoping at this point I havnt boogered up the line ... that it needs to be re placed now ???

 

Sure wish I woulve seen this before I boogered up the line :0(

Eaton STC Fitting removal - YouTube

 

OK - so after watching the video - ank making my own removal tool out grinding down and tapering an old 7/16 wrench - after a bit of frustation after boogering up the rubber fitting and metal clip on the hose side of the line ...... It finally came off - SO tomorrow when the parts department opens Im going to purchase a new line and just use the rubber grommet and metal clip off the new line to finish this repair --- I debated replacing the entire line itself however the other end of the line is so low and a bit more involved (and not leaking #1) - That im just going to attempt the latter- and I ahve to get my work truck back on the road to get some work installed - That video definatly helped wonders and I definatly wish I wouldve seen it sooner -

I printed out the info that you posted and it made things much easier for me THANKS

Tomorrow I will keep all posted on the outcome and I hope that its my only leak :0)

 

Sorry I didn't check back in sooner. On page 7 of the directions that are on the page I linked above, it shows where to insert the tool. http://www.dieselorings.com/docs/8-02xfittings.pdf

 

OK - So now I have new Hpop hose - Couldnt remove ST fitting off new hose to old one so now Im just going to replace whole Driver side hose- Without removing any componants on truck I was able to engage the disconnect on the very bottom ...... but now I cant get the new hose to connect onto the old fitting ??? Any suggestions???? I diddnt want to connect the new fitting and top side of hte hose until I put the bottom side on --------------- Any Advice on how to install new hose on old fitting???

 

Are you sure it separated completely? Does it look like the fitting in this link: HPOP Hose fitting Hose fitting at the engine oil rail connection

Internal and external o-ring intact? Should just push and click if there are no remnants of the old hose hanging around.

 

Just an update - Once I figured out how tool and fitting work - Iwas able to complete it -

Thanks Guys
