Hello everyone, I've been doing a lot of research frantically trying to figure whats going on with my pride and joy. My truck is a late 99 F250 7.3 with around 180,000. It has always run like a champ until yesterday when I pulled into a parking lot. It was idling real rough and sounded like it had a knock almost. I tried to rev it up put it will not accelerate. I have a little bit of blue smoke coming out the exhaust.
So today after searching I thought it could of been the UVCH. So i pulled both valve covers and both connectors where fine, also looked at the pins and all appear okay. I also started the truck and saw each injector was squarting out equal amounts of oil. Then it died...
I also checked the 42 pin connector, as well as the UVCH connector my readings appear good as well
Pass Driver
1= 3.4 8= 3.5
7= 3.1 2= 3.4
3= 3.1 4= 3.4
5= 3.5 6= 3.4
I also stay on top of oil changes with Shaffers. I also drained the fuel bowl and it had pressure, going to the store now to change the filter. I am truly stumped and about to run into traffic if I can't get my truck running again. Any ideas?
I truly appreciate all the help I can get.
