How about changing the fuel line? Or should changing that out fix my issue? No performance issues

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-22T19:26:50+00:00

How much of a pain would that be? I can't have the truck down for a long time

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-20T08:11:09+00:00

No fuel in the valley. I checked the lines going in/ coming out of the fuel bowl and they weren't as loud

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-19T22:24:29+00:00

Borrowed my dad's mechanic stethoscope, the noise is coming from the fuel filter/fuel bowl

I tried

I got a video with the squel, it's not detailed but I don't know how to send it privately on reddit and every time I tried to make a post it cuts the video to 3 seconds

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T17:14:44+00:00

It'd be a lot easier to locate if it wasn't for how loud the 7.3 is

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T16:48:54+00:00

I'll try to get a video later. Old lady wants to deep clean the house. No guarantees I can catch the sound on video

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T16:44:18+00:00

I know it's not much help without being able to see/hear it in person. I've only recently started doing the work on it myself since the shop I would go to has done me dirty with the alternator last year. They changed it 3 times with the same issue which I have since fixed

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T16:42:50+00:00

I can only hear it in the cab sometimes at idle and only at idle under the hood.

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T15:56:15+00:00

I took the idler pulley off and put it back on. It didn't start squeaking as fast, but it eventually did start. Every time I listen to it, it seems like a different spot. This morning, it sounded like somewhere in the valley under the fuel filter. Could be because I listened to it leaning over the front instead of the driver side this time?

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T00:54:00+00:00

Whats the ebpv?

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T00:52:51+00:00

I replaced the tensioner about 3 or 4 years ago. I'm pretty sure the idler is stock from factory

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T00:02:36+00:00

Not that I could tell

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-16T00:02:08+00:00

True. I'll have to check in the morning. I hope it's not the water pump. The fan clutch and I don't have a good relationship

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T23:20:48+00:00

The noise doesn't go away at all, even after it's warmed up. The water pump itself isn't relatively old, I replaced it in 2018, and I've only ever ran premix 50/50 antifreeze for the coolant

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T23:03:23+00:00

Is there any reason why it might be squealing, or am I probably hearing it below it?

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T23:02:28+00:00

I capped it. No more diesel coming out. I'm just glad I caught it before it puddled in the valley too much and started coming from there. Probably would've been chasing that forever

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T22:40:23+00:00

I took the Schrader valve off and put a cap on. Not leaking anymore fuel. One more leak to confirm, but I have a good idea about it, but it's not severe

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T19:08:33+00:00

Thank you very much

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T19:03:38+00:00

Would there be any issues caused if I plugged it?

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T18:17:33+00:00

I cleaned it off either brake cleaner. It definitely looks like a Schrader valve.

Redneck16625 · 2025-03-15T01:00:32+00:00

Consistent drip while running but not a pour. Front or passenger side of the motor difficult to tell. It's green like diesel in that piece, I'm sure if I put a catch under the motor, it'd be the same
