Sounds like they are shotgunning that thing. I don't know much about the 6.OH!! But the HPOP in the 7.3 is a very reliable component. They never go bad. Yours shouldn't either. Did you ever go to the SD section on this forum to get troubleshooting ideas?

 

Yea, but when you are on the side of the road out of state you are att the mercy of the mechanic.
