Low end surge fix

[Car_nut57]

Recently I had a problem with my truck that only under certian light load conditions, it would surge or buck just a little. Since this has happened to my truck I have spoken with several folks who have expressed similar problems with theirs.

I checked for codes, there were none, changed CPS no difference. I know this is going to sound strange, but it is a possibility that the injector plug under the valve cover could be the cause. I finally pulled the valve covers and inspected the plugs through the gasket, they were not loose and snapped properly in place. I figured they were not the problem either, but since the valve covers were already off and I had the parts from International to address the plug problem, I went ahead and installed them. Problem solved!

The repair clips from International part# 1844193C91 really don't look like much a tiny piece of plastic in a "T" shape that slides under the fingers of the clip. They do seem to tighten the clip just a little and maybe that is all they need at least International must think so.

Yep, those UVC's could have had a few more R&D $$$ thrown at them My truck made it to almost 150k before the driver side started giving up. I lost like 3 cyclinders and my PSD was runnin like a Harley (funny now, but -mad then!) Long story short, I broke the d@*% connector on the passenger side installing the clip Seemed tight enough at the time so I went with it. 172k and counting. BUT next time I'll have to purchase the whole shabang and WHEW that'l be a few dead presidents

The UVC's have been problematic from the very first PSD in 94. You would think in 13 years they would have refined things somewhat.
