I was going to say cold warmup programming on Powerstroke was based on engine oil temp not the other two. But I could be wrong, unless I see it in a book I don't believe even myself.
I found it- cold idle advance is coolant temp & cold ambient protection is intake air temp + coolant temp.I was going to say cold warmup programming on Powerstroke was based on engine oil temp not the other two. But I could be wrong, unless I see it in a book I don't believe even myself.
Crummy says his ICP is good @ crank....still would like to see the fuel pressure and ICP #'s at cranking / no-start.I wonder if the high pressure oil pump is losing its prime?
Requires around 300lbs to start.
I'm going to get some solid #'s next time. I'm still kind of scratching my head why plug it in for a bit & it'll start. Like it's trying to light cold on only 1 bank. Since (I think) the pressure sensor is on one of the heads it would seem to indicate it was the other side not getting fuel.Crummy says his ICP is good @ crank....still would like to see the fuel pressure and ICP #'s at cranking / no-start.

It's the 1 box. Checked for moisture & resealed everything, no codes, day whatever & still start/run great. Stretching it out between starts- up to 48hrs & still OK.Almost sounds like a problem with the IDM, does it have the "3 box" system? Separate IDM from ECM, that may have ended in 99?
I see you cut out a rectangle section in the center. Don't forget to include the three little lights in the center. They're required for tails over 80 or 88", can't remember which. I didn't know about the requirement when I first got rolling last year and got a fix-it ticket.Decided to be different, everyone has round lights. Going with 2 red stop/tail & 1 amber turn per side.

I just priced a new radiator for my little itty-bitty Kubota excavator- $688! Cri-mun-eee! I'm pretty sure I can make something else work for a bit less than that.
