[QUOTE="bluedge8, post: 1217400, member: 132"] How does it start cold? try starting it tomorrow without waiting for glowplugs, if it starts fairly well the motor might still have compression, if it doesn't want to start at these temps, you probably have low compression. I am working in rosemount right now, If your interested I could stop by and take a peek- Not that I know a lot but a second set of eyes might help. Also I have the harbor freight compression tester, I think you still need an adaptor for the 7.3 but you can use it if you like, I never found the time to check my motor- pretty sure it's also low on compression.
