02 7.3L problem on rainy days
I'm at my wits end with this thing. Friday morning it was raining. I started the truck and went on my way. Within a half mile the motor started sputtering again. Pulled off the road and drained the fuel filter. Tried to start and it would run about 2 seconds and sputter and quit. After...- Kevin Angstadt

Question A/C acting Funny.
Sounds to me like you have a bad selector switch or a vacuum problem. The last time I had the air go out the defroster when on the dash vents it was the selector switch.- Kevin Angstadt

02 7.3L problem on rainy days
Just an update. The problem is still there but thanks to you all I have decided to take the plunge and look at things for myself. After I got it home I tried to take it to get the AC fixed and it pulled the samr crap. I pulled the inner fender and checked the connector on the IDM. All was...- Kevin Angstadt

02 7.3L problem on rainy days
As fate would have it I went to start the truck in the parking lot of the Motel this morning and it did it again. It was raining. I called another tow truck and had it taken to the nearest dealer. The truck started when we unloaded it off the truck. When they hooked it up to the computer the...- Kevin Angstadt

JR, Good point. What did you do with the air suction sensor that has two wires going to it? Hopefully my stock air hose hasn't dry rotted.- Kevin Angstadt

02 7.3L problem on rainy days
Nope. I did have to replace the power steering pump and the fan clutch. The water pump and alternator are original. I'm hoping to get 700k out of it before a rebuild or replacement. I am not buying a new one. I'll buy a chevy before I buy a 6 litre. Ford seems to think that we want power. I want...- Kevin Angstadt

You are correct. It was the IDM. I'm not much on these acronyms. I was hoping that they put the code on the invoice but no such luck. I watched him check it but I didn't pay close attention. Seemed like it was C680 or a C6080. I checked the web page and that sure is a difference in price...- Kevin Angstadt

02 7.3L problem on rainy days
I have a 02 7.3 that I bought new and now has 506k miles on it. The engine is stock with the eception of a K&N air filter. Two weeks ago I tried to start the truck. It would crank up and run for about 2 seconds before it started sounding like the engine was starving for fuel. It was a hard...- Kevin Angstadt
