[QUOTE="Bobs 7.3, post: 1457931, member: 8460"] Glad I didn't get the ck4 stuff if fords fiding accelerated wear geez you would think they would make sure its quality before releasing it to the public. I had some time today and changed the oil to the delo and mini romps still present at idle, injectors a bit quieter (brand new oil also 15-40 instead of 5-40 synethic), but now if I revv it to 2300 to 2500 In park when it comes down to idle it will come down to a low idle like 400 to 500 rpms and chug 2 to 3 times then come up to normal rpms and smooth out. After smoothing out maybie 2 to 3 seconds it wil baby romp again at idle. later after I go pick a grill up and its nice and hot ill shut it off and unplug the icp and restart it and see if the romping goes away. If not then ill shut it back off and unplug the oil temp sensor and leave the icp unplugged and restart it and see the outcome. I think I read if it still romps at idle then its the hpop or ipr. I wanted to rebuild the ipr today while I had the hpop drained but not enough time so not have to wait till Wednesday to do that. The weird part is it baby romps not only when engine is hot but also just above 100 degrees and with the t6 5-40 it didn't do it till fully warm. The high idle tune is smooth now with the 15-40 though. Man it has me stumped lol. I would have parted it by now or sold it due to lack of time to keep working on it but I have over 4k worth of new body panels for it. The 2016 bed,tailgate and the visor are already painted and done at the shop and the 2016 doors are just waiting to go get the insides sprayed to be hung then and the new ford fenders are going with them to get the insides sprayed and cleared also so they can go on with the doors. A new swamps idm will go in when I do the fenders and doors also. This baby romp is romping my brain lol. Wish someone around here had AE so they could see whats going on and narrow down the gremlin. Good thing is when I get done ill have tons of new parts for trouble free driving for years lol. [/QUOTE]
