stuck on the side of the road at the moment.

Was driving, all temps in range no weird noises. Just died, touching throttle made it slow down more. It popped a code for injector control pressure low. It is a few more days before pay day for me. Just wondering if there is anything I can possibly do to get the truck home for the fact of being broke? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Was your STC fitting ever replaced on your HPOP?

No it was not. But it only popped that one code, nothing else. Wouldn't that cause a lot more than just the one?

If the STC fitting failed it will allow oil to escape from the high pressure oil system and trip an ICP code, the truck will shut down because the injectors are starved of oil. Same thing mine did, I was stranded in Tuscaloosa, AL for 3 days. It may start back up when it cools down and everything contracts, but who knows how far it will get you. Mind you this is just my best guess from my past experience.

Unplug your ICP sensor and try starting it.

No, just 30 something or so. What are the ids of it coming completely apart with no warning? Hoping its just leaking so it didn't snap and crack the cover.

if its the stc fitting, it's not a serviceable part. ford has an updated stc fitting. also, while ur in there, change out the dummy plugs / standpipes. they'll last longer too.

when the original stc fitting leaks, they usually crack apart. when i took my hpop out, the stc fitting didnt even need to be removed. it jus fell apart cos it cracked. poor manufacturing. lousy part. new one is a clear difference and much better too.

it maintains oil pressure a lot better too.

which part of town are u in? if i'm close i could come out to get u home.
