    Injector Drive Module (IDM) Trouble

    Hey guys after I thought I had my truck all fixed up I've gotten intermittent IDM problems. The truck will sometimes start and run fine, then all of the sudden (usually at idle) start running like crap. I hooked up my scanner to it and determined it was the IDM. Any thought on where to go...

    Best Code Scanner/Programmer

    I think a lot of you are missing the point of my op. I'm looking for your opinions on which programer that also scans codes is best for the 7.3. I don't have much money and I'd like to spend it on 1 thing, not a chip and an expensive scanner. Thanks

    My oil level was about 3/4" from the top, looks like that's not the problem.

    Worst Luck Ever!!

    Stupid questions I know but; where is the HPOP located, what would cause it to become low, and how do I prevent it from happening again? Thanks!

    Worst Luck Ever!!

    It seems I was premature in saying I fixed the problem last night. I just went out to goto work and she's dead again. If I give it a LONG wts time and extend the cranking it will fire up, blow smoke (white sometimes, black the other), rev to about 1k, then die. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

    Worst Luck Ever!!

    The UVC harness is the wiring harness under your valve cover that hooks up to your injectors and gp's. Theres a central connector in the middle of the head that hooks to the computer through the valve cover; that connecter seems to enjoy coming loose causing your truck to run like a complete turd.

    Worst Luck Ever!!

    So after getting my passenger UVC fixed yesterday I thought today would be great considering I my new tires just came in today. Well on the way to get those nice new tires installed my truck started running like crap; I figured that the clip had come loose again so I limped it into a bus stop...

    UVC Troubles

    All they did was hook a scanner up to it, charge me $80 and say I had a bad connection. They wanted to charge me another $250 to reconnect the damn thing.

    UVC Troubles

    After all my trouble I gave up and went to my local steelership and had them do their thing. They came up with a bad connection on the passenger UVC harness. Yeah Yeah Yeah, I know you guys are all callin me an idiot for not checkin it myself. On to the next step, can you guys tell me exactly...

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    Scratch that last post, I got it runnin again..if you can call it running...I guess I got a bit too much WD-40 on the PCM connector or not a good connection on the ICP plug when I took out my 10k. It's back to hard starting, slow to rev, and hard to get to idle unless I slowly decrese the revs...

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    Haven't checked the UVC yet, but things just went from bad to worse. I thought I'd disconnect the PCM and reconnect it to make sure I got a good connection so I disconnected the batteries & the PCM then reconnected everything now the truck just cranks but never turns over

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    I called around to all the local shops in hopes of finding a scanner I could borrow. Instead, after telling one guy all my symptoms he said it sounds like my computer may be in a "limp mode" and to try resetting it by disconnecting the batteries for a few hours. Anyone ever heard of this? Thanks!

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    If the valve is open what's the next thought on why it's not running? Thanks!

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    After unplugging the connector I didn't hear the "woosh" sound. I tried but couldn't for the life of me get the downpipe off to look at the valve, finally found the actuator arm and was able to move it; does being able to move the arm mean the valve isn't stuck? Thanks!

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    Would I hear the wooshing sound if the valve was stuck shut? Thanks!

    Coolant in the valley

    I found coolant in my valley, any idea what's causing this? Thanks!

    Running like its cold but I know its not?

    I don't think it's the EPBV because I unplugged the 2-wire plug with the wire hoop connector at the base of the turbo. Also, before I unplugged it and gave it gas I heard the wooshing sound that I believe is the valve opening. I also don't believe the problem is the TPS because while parked...
