It will cause dead injector codes to pop up. Cheap easy fix, takes about a half hour if you don't know what you are doing. Here is what your codes are. P1209 Injector Control Pressure System Fault P1211 Injector Control Pressure Sensor Above / Below Desired P1316 Injector Circuit / IDM Codes Detected P0541 Air Intake Heater Control Circuit Low |
that was quick thanks i will check it out I did fail to say my truck has 227,000 on it any other maintenance tips while im in there?

Well Fords are weird. Some of them just go and go and go. Some of them are attention hores their entire life. If you have gotten that many trouble free miles out of it I would have to say you got a good one. I had four powerstrokes before I finally made the switch to the cummins engines. My 99, 01, 02, were great trucks and I never spent a dime on them. My 03 7.3L was a complete pile. I hated that truck more than any vehicle I've ever owned. I kept it for a whopping 13,000 miles.
Just change your fluids regularly and keep a clean fuel filter in it and it should last for years. |
Hey Alligator Vinny, You were spot on with the harness under the valve cover drivers side was the culprit thank you so much. Yeah I have been pretty lucky with it so far. thanks agian
