    CEL 3 sec after starting, runs rough

    Thanks Guys. After reading that website, I am thinking I may have a bad oil temp sensor

    CEL 3 sec after starting, runs rough

    you just want a beer too :);Sweet So I have a few more questions. The Sensor on top of the drivers side cyl head, right behind the ac compresor is the ICP correct? Where does the oil temp sensor come into play here and where is it located? What function does the MAP sensor perform?

    Battery light on

    Corrosion on any battery connection /relay will cause this as would bad grounds..

    Dana 44 Questions...

    a D44 is weak. I had one in my lifted and SAS'ed explorer and kept snapping ujoints and axle stubs with the STOCK 4.0L, If you go D44, get chromoly shafts and Beefy U joints. This will cost you $$$, comparible to a D60 in price but still not as strong. Behind the torque of a diesel, the D44...

    CEL 3 sec after starting, runs rough

    I unplugged the ICP while the engine was running, there was a slight change, still didn't run normally. I left it unplugged shut the truck off and started it again, was a little harder to start but started , still no change

    Is the ICP under the AC compressor then? The Sensor I unpluged was on the drivers side head, near the front, but accesible from the top of the engine. It was in the head though. The fuel was a normal color, not mixed with oil or anything, no water either. The sensor on the turbo is what?

    CEL 3 sec after starting, runs rough

    I really need to get it scanned. Never in my life have I had to pay someone else to scan my vehicle, I feel helpless:( I put the new CPS in , piece of cake and changed the fuel filter, which looked like it had not been changed in a LONG time. Tested my GPR which is indeed faulty ( imo its...

    CEL 3 sec after starting, runs rough

    JUST started tonight. Starts fine, no abnormal smoke, 3 seconds later CEL comes on and engine runs rough at a higher idle. Goes down the road fine, turbo spools fine, but CEL stays on. CEL resets with key cycle, then 3 seconds later all over again. My scanner does not scan Diesels or I would not...

    DYED FUEL?

    I had a 2003 Sprinter that the dyed fuel caused all kinds of problems after an "accidental" fill of off road diesel.. $700 later it was back on the road.. New fuel filters, several new sensors, and nobody could explain to me why it would not run on dyed fuel...

    R 12 To R 134 Then Back

    Why would you want to do that? The cost to change back, Flushing the old R134 out, filling the complete system with R12 would be very expensive unless you already have the R12. Its in the neighborhood of $100 a lbs, at least 7-8 lbs would be needed..
