The only thing I would add to this great video is never ever under any circumstances use anything other than a real motorcraft solenoid! I finally stopped burning through starters when I realized that was my problem. This is after making all new cables and rewiring damn near the entire truck. Most of the aftermarket solenoids don't deliver the correct power to the starter. At least not consistently. I will now be upgrading my fuel shut off to a manual rather than electronic one thanks to you. One more future problem eliminated

There are several vids by pros warning away from the discount solenoids. Many of the 30 dollar to 40 dollar solenoids are doa or fail soon after using. The ones well made are in the $125 + price points. $125 - $140 gets you a quality solenoid that will function as the original and last like oe also.

I bought an 83 F 350 last March. Paid 1000 for it. I’ve probably put about that to 15 in it. Been messing with this thing for a year. It’s getting better and better with each go-round, but I love it. Yes...it’s ancient and slow but this thing has some serious balls. Old farm laborer owned this. He’d go from here to Mexico regularly with it. Pretty sure it was in an accident on the pass right side. Pretty sure his tool kit was bubble gum and bailing wire but he kept it running. Only had one battery and a can of starting fluid at first. That got corrected. New plugs, injectors, fuel lines, etc...Now it’s been “ok , how was it set up before and how do we get it back to that”. Call it a labor of love at this point. Like I said little by little. Thank you for the video.

Three year owner of a '94 7.3 with the factory turbo setup. Never knew how much electrical mumbo jumbo ford got rid of when they were preparing the step up to the psd. Recently been having issues with my truck, mostly when it's been warm and I come back to the truck to start it after sitting for only a half hour or so. Cranks, has fuel delivery, just no combustion. Amidst my original diagnosis of a bad IP, I came across the phenomena of these idiotic solenoids seizing up in the shut position when the engine bay heats up post operation. Just ordered the solenoid, and am hoping for the best. Great video man, even with it being a few years old.

@@tylercromartie if you look on the top of the ip you’ll see two studs coming out. Those are the electrical studs for the solenoid itself. You have to take that top cover off (I think like 3-4 torx bolts outlining it.) keep note of the positions of all the washers and make sure to order new seals (I just bought a whole pump seal kit) or it leaks like no tomorrow. Unfortunately that just postponed my pump going, just now rebuilding my whole injection system. Good luck!

No, it should be pretty free of any interference other than some electrical looms and the fuel return line. If you look at about 0:36 you’ll see where the solenoid is, just about directly back on the top of the pump behind oil fill tube. It’s in the part of the housing where that fuel return line nipple goes into

The yellow wires go to the glow plug relay. They carry a LOT of amps, and it is common for them to burn up at the connection. The most common fix is to move them out of the connector but keep the connector intact for the rest of the wires (like was done here).

Very informative. My 92 E350 the fuel shut-off solenoid went out intermittently. while the set up looks slightly different and it's a much tighter bay, it's still the same part in the same spot. I got a new FSOS, the same one you show from Amazon. it did not work out of the box.... I'm returning that and getting a Motorcraft one now. and replacing the wires. we''ll see what happens.

I have a fully functional cold start fuel advance solenoid but if I am taking the cap off the pump I might as well change both solenoid's while I am in there...I am having an intermittent stall and hard start problem and everything is pointing to the fuel shut off solenoid.

The fuse links are used to keep the wiring from burning 🔥 completely up . Kinda makes sense if you think about it . The glow plugs alone takes plenty of voltage to activate them . The fuel solenoid is under constant DC Voltage with the ignition switch in the on position. That the purpose of the FUSE LINKS !

I feel your pain to some degree but the electrical stuff is actually incredibly helpful once you understand it. First things first is some proper diagnostic equipment which is mostly a multimeter for you, although a sounding device to find breaks in wires could be incredibly helpful. Next is a good solid wiring diagram. Hopefully you maintain colours and connectors so the diagram is always valid. Next just a basic, practical book on electronics and components. Ours are going to be pretty basic with just fuses, switches, solenoids, relays, lights and the radio. The only thing a little different is glow plugs. If you know your electronics, diagnosing a glow plug will be a piece of cake. Just some food for thought. I agree it's great to have a mechanical engine, and this truck is nice to work on. I will say however that if you know how to use the electronics you can get 90% of your diagnosis done from the drivers seat.

Current clamp would help as well. If you got a simple oscilloscope with some current clamps and probes you could basically see everything you need to. There are some additional tools to see your fuel pulses to help you time the high pressure pump but that's basically electronics to get your "eyes" on a mechanical system without taking the front cover off.
