Connect the supplied ICP sensor wiring harness to the supplied main wiring harness in the engine compartment. Disconnect the stock wiring harness at the sensor located above the valve cover on the driver’s side towards the front of the engine. Plug the supplied ICP sensor connector into the stock ICP sensor on the engine and the stock engine wiring harness connector into the supplied ICP sensor connector.
NOTE: The ICP connector is on the drivers side of the engine located close to the engine removal ring under the boost hose – Notice the BLUE gasket. The ICP connector is NOT located at the front of the engine, as that is a coolant sensor!
DO I disconnect it and try to run the engine or just disconnect it and reconnect the harness to reset the faults?

To me your problem sounds like the sensor is not increasing the fuel pressure. So essentially it right now your truck is acting like it is unpluged. You may need a new sensor. If you have a check engine light you will need a scan tool to clear the code. You can do this at your local autozone or Oriley's.

Unfortunatley I have not worked on this truck so I don't know what test you can perfom on the icp to see if its working correctly. I would recomend getting a mitchel or chiltons manual for your truck they will tell you how to check the sensor

Here's the sensor locations if you still need it. Where are you located? The reason I ask is because alot of people on here have nice scantools to get some readings off your truck and alot of people on here are willing to lend a helping hand. Your in good company here.

The scantool at Autozone or O'reilly or others for that matter, generally won't read much on our trucks.

My truck, with stock tunes, rarely sees EGT's of 1100 under load.

With good boost and stock tunes you shouldn't see much smoke when you stomp on it. I get a clean burn and little smoke until I approach 3k rpm where the truck is falling on its face anyway.

I'm not sure why your not getting any more responses, but this will bump you back to the top.
