Well its happened 3 times, after running it hard for a minute as I slow down my truck will hiccup...but still run and start fine no problems....

No codes, running a mild tune...

Any ideas?

 

Have you ever checked your fuel pressure if it gets low could it have anything to do with any of your problems

 

No I have not, I would like to get a fuel pressure gauge, along with oil temp.

Where can I get a fuel pressure gauge?

 

Not sure I understand what you mean by hiccup Tyler?

And I agree with wulfman.....you need to get a fuel pressure gauge. Try glowshift. They have it really cheap compared to autometer and some others.

You can get a scangauge II for all the rest of your gauges except EGT.

 

The scan gauge will tell me fuel pressure?

I REALLY need to buy then.

 

Scangauge will not do fuel pres. or egt but will do everything else under the sun, everything your obd2 reads it reads

 

Oh have you done the updated fuel pres spring mod

 

No I have not, I need to do that, and I wanted to order it up.

Where can I get one kit at? Ford?

 

Yea ford got mine from partsguyed,he was 20 cheaper than local guy, even after shipping. I think it was 52 plus shipping

 

It could be the turbo burbing ( hickup ) back through the intake. Mine does it when the motor is not warmed up yet. Step on the throttle and let of and hickup. I think it's explained by not having a waste gate in the turbo so when you back out of the throttle it spits back a little.

2006, if I remember correctly you just did a lot of engine work right? My truck had the hiccups after I pulled everything apart to do the EGR by-pass and oil cooler, blue spring, new gauges, ICP + a bunch of other stuff. It would hic-up and almost die when I can to a stop sign but would kick back without fully dieing. After I put everything back together I probably drove a good 5 miles around my neighborhood before hitting a main street. After these few miles it started to run normally without any hicups. My fuel pressure (always 65-68) never dipped during these hicups so I'm thinking it was either air in the HPOP and/or air in the fuel bowls and just had to be worked out of the system.

Check out Glow-shift gauges their priced right and work very well. I'm super happy with the 3 I got for the A-pillar.

 

Well I was driving it all day Saturday with out a missed beat, then sunday I was playing with the tuner, driving it hard, trying out the different tunes, thats when it did it once, then it did it twice today. I will check out glow shift

 

tyler mine does it all the time. your talking about you can get on it and go ***** to the wall and then let off and it sounds like its wanting to die and stuff right? if so then its normal with a tuner. my buddies does it also. the 7.3 do it really bad but honestly it sounds kinda cool to me.

 

hmm.. Yeah, my "air in the system" problem doesn't sound like your problem at all. Does it clear up when you flash it back to stock?

Mine sounds like it's comming from right in front of the steering wheel from the intake. It sounds like a bump, bump, bump.
