This is off subject, but you pain 30 bucks for a 36mm socket!! I bought one at advanced auto parts for 12 bucks, i use it for the fuel filter and oil filter caps

 

So would a 36mm wrench work?

Ill see how it starts tomorrow morning.

I plugged it in, it's still getting pretty cold at nights here. 25deg

 

25* isnt that cold, It should fire right up at 25*! I had to plug mine in at 25* to get it too start, but my FICM was bad! I am curious as too why you are cranking long at times, as my truck cranks long too! I have to crank mine for 3 or so seconds, let up, than crank again. It usually starts with in 3seconds on the 2nd starter cycle! Wonder if my IPR sensor is going?

PS I have been following all your threads, and you got way more patiance(?) than I do! I hope your on the downhill side now!

 

I got a 1/2" drive 36mm Craftsman socket for $6 in 2004. Probably a little more than that now.

 

IPR would be the suspect, not the ICP.

 

Sorry their are so many ipr, icp, ficm, ect, egt, eot, koeo, koer, and tcm codes, i get mixed up! I edited it and fixed it! Thank you!

 

Well I have a 36mm socket for my filters.

Will that work? I don't want to have to cut a slot in it.

Might just go buy a wrench tomorrow just to be Safe.

So I just take it out clean it up a litte bit and all should be well and I can rule that out?

 

Well.......ICP IS a sensor--injection control pressure sensor

IPR is really an electrically controlled relief valve--Injection Pressure Regulator. If the IPR sticks or defaults (trash or no electricity) open all the HPO is dumped to sump and a no start condition results.

Yes, I'm still dealing with all the nomenclature. I thought I was uptown when I got my 93 chevy in 99 and had to worry about EPROM's and knock sensors. I'm used to carb floats, points and condensors, and "TWIST IT LEFT FOR A LITTLE MORE TIME" as go fast parts.

 

Would bad IPR cause a rough idle after cold start?

 

See how it starts in the morning first. It may never give you another minutes trouble. A wrench won't work without removing the turbo....you need a socket with a slot because of the electrical connector on the IPR.

Damn It! Your killin me here! LOL Back on subject! lol

 

Haha

 

Probably not. that's likely to be injector stiction.

 

Is the downhill side a good thing or a bad thing? Lol

 

Downhill side is good!
