One morning, after the first cold night of the fall, I had a no start on my 99 7.3l truck. My fuel bowl heater element had failed, and because it was cold enough to need it, when it tried to heat the fuel bowl it blew the fuse. That same fuse provides power to the PCM, and so I experienced a no start situation. I disconnected the fuel bowl heater, replaced the fuse and was able to start the truck. While it was warming, I logged in to Riffraff Diesel and ordered a new fb heater element. As always, the replacement part came quickly, fit properly and was a great price. 10 to 15 minute repair, and a good chance to replace that fuel filter while you're in there. Good to go now for the winter.

Replaced old style

it does what it needs to . pig tail was a little long causing a large s turn. i would do it again.

Cleaned the bowl and found rust, crud, and broken pieces of the stock heater element at the bottom. The heater was also unplugged by the original owner. After everything was spotless, I plugged this in and screwed it down. Works perfect with no blown fuses. Thanks Riff Raff.

Just the one I needed to complete the fuel bowl and a great price.

Exactly what I needed when fuse 30 popped and my truck saw fit to stop on the road. After some troubleshooting identifying the problem I ordered the element and had it the same week. I had my boy under the hood to fix it in about 30 minutes.

Nice upgrade to old heater, seems more heavy duty/less flimsy. Easy install.

Old one had been disconnected for a few years and I’ve had trouble with cold starts in the last year and this seems to have helped some but didn’t fix my weak glow plugs and injectors. Very happy with my purchase

This part is the cheapest one out there AND it is a genuine International factory part. I couldn't be happier. I had the older model 'wire' style ('99 early 250 diesel) and this replaces that old moster perfectly VERY high quality. Works perfectly. You'll never replace it again! GREAT COMPANY TO DEAL WITH.
