Had similar issues, turned out to be a faulty FCIM, and bad fuel that wreaked havoc on my injectors, not to mention a bad HFCM that did not let me know I had water in the fuel.
Great thread on steering safety and possible causes.;tu;tu;tu
What is the name of the part that the tie rod(?) or steering stabilizer(?) are mounted to on the front axle shaft, near the front hub. At first glance it appeared that this mount was just bolted on, but closer inspection I found...
Or should I call it a Power steering fluid cooler?
Finally got my truck back after 3 weeks Hiatus with a 6.0L mechanic and it now roars! Anyways, planning a trip to the Rockies and want to make sure my brakes don't fail, so I need to put a fluid cooler back on.

Updated my Signature. not appearing on thread. What I am really trying to understand is does low circuit = faulty wiring, solenoid or injector? When I do the buzz test the injectors are heard loud and clear.

Ok,
I ordered an AutoEnginuity Scan Tool on Dave B. recommendation and I love it!
I was anxious to use it so I skipped the manual after getting the software on my Laptop and plugged it in.
Now that I downloaded the data I want to know what steps I should take to make sense of all the...
Dave,
So many options. Should I be looking for the Workshop manual? or something else?
Manual is listed for $185 which I think is worth it if it gives me do's and don't for service repairs.
Do you have a manual or CD? CD looks interesting....
FC:dunno
Dave,
Your a walking Encyclopedia! ;tu I will order the DVD/Book next month. I just spent $500 on an Autoenginity Scan tool with the Ford and GM added ons.

Red,
I was using two curved long needle nose pliers. I just picked up a pair of long hooked nail pullers that should work without me having to meet my fist again...talk about beating yourself up:D
Did notice improved HP after the EGR disconnect again.

Red,
I tried the fiddling with two screwdrivers to leverage the egr out and it would not budge. Tried your idea with the string (7 strand para cord) looping it thru the bolt holes and it popped out easily.
FYI I bent my glasses and got one bruised Eye when I tried pulling so hard I lost...
Red60-no,
Thanks for putting a slide show together! like they say a pics worth a 1000 words! :hail
Where did you get the replacement Od-Rings for the EGR? They look like standard Silicon High Temp O-Rings. What are the dimensions for the OD & Thickness.
Thanks,
FC
For the guys that replaced the FICM where did you get it and what did it cost, did you have the dealer do it, or was it a DIY? How did you know you needed a new FICM?
For the guys that had their PCM flashed to newer updates, did you have the dealer do it, and what was the cost?
I printed...
I was planning on pulling mine and cleaning it, as I was thinking this might be another source of my grief as I originally disconnected upon first purchasing the truck last march and just plugged it in last month thinking it might help with the cold starts. I am curious the condition it is in...
