I use the 100 HP as my DD. It has more low end throttle response than the 80 HP. It still get pretty good milage. The daily just didn't have the kick off the line that I was looking for. I have a 6sp, with a SBC. Didn't see what you have. I did just rebuild my HPOP with the kit from Replacement O-rings for Ford Diesel Engines. I have no affiliation with these guys, but between me and my two brothers, we've done quite a lot of business with them. Small mom and pop, that ships the same day you order. I live in Omaha, and received it the next day. I ordered early in the morning. They are located just outside Denver. He has the HPOP o ring complete kits for not a lot of money. It took me longer to wait for the blue rtv and loctite to dry than to do the actual removal, rebuild, and reinstallation. Do the complete kit, not much more, and while you have it torn down, why not? I had a pesky fuel and oil leak for about five years that I spent over a grand at a dealer right before I moved that they still never fixed, and then the next dealer wanted about the same. It took me about 30-35 hrs (24 was to wait for loctite to dry and cure). the entire kit, including the non-serviceable plug, which you have to do, since it most times is the main culprit, including mine, plus the fuel and oil line tools is about $75!!! Cheap insurance. Being someone that paid an exorbitant amount of money at a dealer, then found out it was as simple as it was... That would be a stage 3 water/methanol system in the truck right now. If you do order the kit, might as well get the fumoto valve and install that at you next oil change, and make life even easier, just get the one with the nipple. Hope this helps, I know about frustration, as Cody can attest, we've been trying to get my brothers FU2 worked out, and it's almost been a family feud. Looks like we found it to be injector shot. Let me know if you have any questions.
