so my trucks been down for over a year now and i'm determined to fix it now.
i had my truck at my dads sitting for 6 to 8 months decided i was going to drive it went out there started it up and it idled for like 15 mins and died i tried to restart it and nothing.
i replaced the cam position sensor still nothing
took it to ford they said it was the idm
brought it home swapped the idm and nothing
put a post up on here and someone said to check oil pressure i did and got nothing
replaced the lpop
i still cant get any sort or oil pressure any ideas/ help would be great thanks

 

"Nothing" doesn't tell us much.

* Is it cranking?
* Does the WTS light come on?
* Does the tach move while cranking (if it's cranking)?
* Any white smoke (if it's cranking)?

 

no white smoke ever
cranks like crazy brand new starter and group 31s
wait to start light comes on and shuts off as should

all things lead to oil pressure issue i have a gauge taped into rite above the oil filter and theres no pressure

 

What year?

 

its a 1996

 

Is the HPOP <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:OfficeDocumentSettings> <o:AllowPNG/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings> </xml><![endif]-->Reservoir full or empty?
Dos the oil pressure register on the dash gauge while cranking?

 

empty as far as i know when i pulled it off before it was 1/4 ful maybe nothing on the dash but the dash never worked

 

oil pressure never registured at idle

 

If you have no oil in your HPOP, you can crank all day long and all you'll do is burn up your starter and batteries.

Take the plug out of the driver's side on the top of the HPOP reservoir, and use a small funnel and fill it up to within 1/2" of the top with new oil. Crank the engine a few times. Repeat as necessary. The LPOP will prime once the engine starts. And the engine can't run without LPOP pressure to feed the HPOP, so you won't be doing any damage to it.

 

And the dash oil pressure "gauge" isn't worth a crap for anything. It's just a switch; it opens up at around 8 psi, and whatever it shows after that is just wherever the gauge decides to sit. It's a glorified idiot light.

 

I filled 5 or 6 times and same thing

 

It keeps draining out? That means your LPOP isn't primed.
