BradK Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I've an '02 F-350 that will start and run nicely when cold but stall after about 10 seconds. It will usually restart without cycling the key. The pcm does not reset. ICP does not drop till well after the stall. It has the revised CMP sensor. VPWR does not waiver at stall. After a lot of restarts, it will stay running and runs well, with an occasional hick-up. I suspect IDM is failing but would like to be sure. Any ideas???

ktmlew Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Check the oil pressure at the hp reservior on cold start. Bet it takes it 15-20 secs to show any pressure. If so, replace the low pressure oil pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradK Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Last cold start (40deg outside) fired in about 5 seconds and run approx 1 minute then stalled, hpop reservoir was still full after stall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blown99 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Will the injectors buzz right after the engine stalls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradK Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 No blown99, no buzz after stall. Yes Brad, P0344 P1670 maybe I'll throw a cmp at it just because, thanks i'll keep y'all updated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blown99 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I would verify that you have good power and grounds to the IDM if there is no buzzing of the injectors during the buzz test after the stalling condition. If the power and grounds are good, then suspect an IDM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradK Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Update, replaced cmp no change, replaced IDM started and ran fine for 1 week then stalled after running about 10 sec when cold ,repeatedly. replaced pcm 3 days ago, so far so good can anyone tell me if i can reprogram an e series pcm for this F-350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmorris Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 You might be able to. You would have to trick your scan tool into thinking it has a blank PCM and use the tear tag off the original PCM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradK Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Thanks Leon, I know the routine, but unsure if the 'puters are physically different? Sorry to hear about the civic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmorris Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Sorry to hear about the civic. Why be sorry? 45L tank.....720 KM. Thats alot better than what the Taurus got for mileage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Warman Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Caution, memory thing happening - for '02 I think the only concern you'll have in transposing PCMS is whether the truck is a stick or auto.... FWIW, sorry to hear about the Taurus.... my Gawd!!!! Does nobbody have any pride??? I used to drive a Yugo but it got stolen and now I drive a Trabant....

BradK Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 Latest update: installed e series pcm, started and ran everyday for 1 1/2 weeks, this morning started and ran for 5 sec then stalled, repeatedly. Looking for dynamite now. P.S. IDS told me "incorrect hardware level" when trying to reprogram e series pcm to f series. it did seem to start and run ok for test purposes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradK Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 ITS BACK!!!!!!!!! the most repeatable problem is bucking at high throttle, bucks bad, only near full throttle,and only above 2500rpm, still looking for cause Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradK Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 ...well i ran out of things to check and monitor, so i replaced the engine harness, the owner has had it for 2 weeks and said "never a hick-up". Hope this helps someone, it was one of the toughest to figure out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradK Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 As of Christmas there have been no further drivability concerns. Yeeeeeehaw!!! We did open the old harness and were unable to "see" any problems. Merry Christmas to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
