Message: [QUOTE="Mdub707, post: 229360, member: 107"] It is a new ICP sensor, think it's bad? He did say when he put the new ICP sensor on it fixed his issues, but the truck was already warm. Once it cooled down again, he tried restarting it and got the hard start and a lot of black smoke again. He said he can clear the codes and the truck seems to run fine, until he gets it up to 2500 rpms or so and that's about when ICP desired and actual start going away from each other, and it trips the CEL, as soon as the CEL is on, truck runs like crap across the board. At one point he said ICP voltage was 1.24 I think... but I'm not sure when this was read... here is his last post in regards to the truck: [B][I]We were running the ford pinpoint AO test for code p2284 this morning and one step is checked for oil aeration. They want you to rev the engine at 3,000 rpm for 3 minutes and than check to see if the icp is over 1800 psi. We revved the engine for the required 3 minutes, let it idle and then brought it to 3000 again. The icp was at about 1540 psi and the desired was abotu the same. Without moving my foot from the accelerator, the enigne revved to 4000 rpm, the icp went to 4700 psi and the icp desired stayed at 1500 psi and the code triggered. I don't know if this is helpful information, but we are having a hard time believing that there is really something wrong with the hpop system and sooner believe that this is an electrical issue. We have made it to the step in the pinpoint tests where we need to back probe the icp sensor and run a KOER test to check for voltage change when the computer command the icp high and low. We will try to do that today. There are only a couple of steps remaining in the pinpoit testing and they are both leaning toward pcm depending on the results of the tests. We will be doing some wot tesing with a different scanner that updates in real time tonight also. [/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
