yes it will but you will have to change the engine wiring harness over, or change the 7.3L glow plugs over to the 6.9L style and change the glow plug controller as well
possibly the glow plug comand is bad.
how to install glow plug on ford f350 l997
controller is bad. Check to see if you are getting power to the controller!
check the glow plug, if it is diesel
In my 1986 F350, I replaced a the 6.9 diesel engine with a 1989 7.3 diesel engine. Everything fit. BUT I had to used the glow plug system from the 6.9 system
The Glow plugs on a 7.3 Diesel International are located at the top of the intake manifold. There is 1 plug for each of the 8 cylinders and each plug will have a single wire connected to the top of it.These 8 wires go into a harness which leads toward the rear of the engine where you will find the "Glow Plug Controller". The engine I am refering to is a 1988 model, however, I would think a 7.3 is a 7.3. The Glow Plug controller has been a source of trouble on mine but check the plugs first.

The glower relay itself and it's associated controller don't have fuses as such. Each glow plug has a fusible link (which is similar) but you wouldn't know to check this if the 'Wait to Start' or 'Glow Plug' light was lit as normal. Troubleshooting a bad glow controller is a little more complex and you need to verify that the plugs themselves are OK first.
remove your air cleaner then right behind it (closest to firewall) Is your glow plug controller! that is where the controller is for the glowplugs, but the relay switch for the glowplugs is on the passenger side of the motor. it is bolted on to the side of the fender. hope that answers your question

The glow plug is the diesel version of a spark plug. There are 4 glow plugs (1 for each cyl.) located usually near the injector on top of the cylinder head.AnswerThe glow plug is NOT the diesel version of a spark plug, they both do different jobs. The glow plug is there to aid starting when the engine is cold. The spark plug is there to provide the spark for combustion to take place in a petrol/gasoline engine.
