Look at the connector I fought this last year it was an intermittent connection. I pulled the connector apart and pryed the little inner parts out wala no more herky jerky.

i have looked at it and pull on the wires while it was running no problems occured but i will check it again. thanks for info.

Mines doing the same thing only in the rain tho, theres a connector i guess up by the valley and valve cover. I'm gonna pull it apart eventually and spray some wd-40 in it, and hopefully it fixes it

Mine only fouled up while driving down the road. I too did the push pull thing, Oh yeah did i mention wanting to burn my truck because of this erant herky jerky thing. No body gets that many bad sensors. If you run the blue international sensor it will affect milage and power as it retards timing. I have the blue one as a back up.

 

[kfluke]

but you would think it would do it while soaking it down with the hose. would'nt you?

It is hard to recreate the conditions during diag. sometimes.

Kinda like when you just want to take a sledge to the whole truck then burn it to the ground?? No I have no idea what youre sayin lol(kinda)

 

[Cat_Rebel]

My buddy's would do that too, we replaced it & haven't had any problems since.

I don't remember where I saved this from , but here is some reading for you....


I had some issues with my 96 w/5speed a while back but due to the cold weather waited to fix it till now. Had code 0344

I had the cps go. replaced that, truck runs. Drive 32 miles and dies.

After doing some more diag, replaced the ipr. Had code 1283. Bad solenoid. Pulled the fuel filter cannister to do it so I changed out the rotted hoses with the blue Ford ones.

Started and drove fine for a couple of days then started getting a check engine light at startup for 60 to 90 seconds. After it went out had full power and drove good. Started cutting out while drivin at any speed. Just a second or so and back to full power. I thought I was going to rip the yoke off the rear end. Hooked up the Genesys while driving to watch the data stream. when it cut out the icp would drop to 2psi. The light comes on and the computer goes into limp mode. Turns out the icp was leaking oil through the body of the icp into the electrical connecter. I guess it was causing an intermittant open like it was unplugged which is why the computer was still letting the truck run in limp mode. Had code 1280.

I only put another 30 miles on it since but no light at start up and no more cutting out.




Maybe the ICP is getting water in it.....

My buddies did this too, I dont think he ever found the problem, since he traded it in for a new one, he didnt care.

I didnt know there was another connector in the harness between the CPS pigtail and the computer, for the CPS ofcourse...

been to the local international dealer they sale new plug w/wire to splice in your harness its like $14.00 but i don't want to go cutting yet

I think the issue is, the window seal leaking and allowing water to get on the PCM. Pull the pcm and look for signs of water intrusion, as well as the plug into the back of the pcm.

This is somewhat common.

 

[Cat_Rebel]

Never would have thought of that one!
