Re: Replaced fuel pump, less than 150 miles later P0305 and P0316 CEL
I posted that right after doing the compression test, afterward I put everything back on and fired it up and it ran good without spitting out a code. Go figure.

It's not coolant, I know that smell all too well. It is an indescribable smell, kind of like stale B.O. - we have a combo of several oder absorbers and air fresheners kind of hiding it. For the...

Re: Replaced fuel pump, less than 150 miles later P0305 and P0316 CEL
It's a 2003, I'm at least the 3rd owner and by appearances it's lived a hard life. I do not think the original owner took very good care of it.
Don't get me wrong it's been pretty loyal for us but...

Re: Replaced fuel pump, less than 150 miles later P0305 and P0316 CEL
I was wondering about that. I'm going to have to figure out how to test it.
Right now I'm at a crossroads with this truck, it has 182,000 miles on it, in the last month I've replaced the idler...

A misfire on #5?
There's nothing chirping and no cam codes. The cam sensor and shaft that's on there has maybe 40,000 miles on it.
If it's got something to do with it is it both pieces or...

Re: Fuel Pump
They sell those strainers that are an add on-
Are those necessary?
Are they generic? Will any brand fit onto Motorcraft pump?

I think it is (was) the belt tensioner, the chirping has (so far) gone away after replacing the tensioner, belt and idler pulley. Normally I wouldn't be so sure after replacing three parts at once...

Took the serpentine belt off - no chirp, belt looks good, no glazing, no cracks or missing ribs - nothing.
Took idler pulley off, appears to be ok.
So I'm in the same place I was, no idea.

So when I pull the belt, if it's still chirping it's the cam sync. If it stops what is the next thing to look at, the tensioner?
I'm fairly certain that the cam sync is OK, since this started...
