AutoEnginuity and Hard starting
Hey guys, Ive had a problem w my 02 7.3 350 lately. I noticed it would sort of "thrust" when driving and sometimes idling at a light or something. The check engine light would come on and after a while reset itself. Now it takes about 3-5 sec longer to start than it used to.
I've ordered the AutoEnginuity program and waiting for it to come in but was just wondering what (other than the CE codes) to be looking for, important sensors in what range and possibly if anyone might be able to tell me what these are symptoms of? Any input would be appreciated! Thanks!

When you say "thrust" do you mean like someone blipped the throttle, or like it died for a split second? If its a dying thing, its possibly the CPS going on you. Your best bet is to find out what code was stored and post back with it.

Yep pretty much like that. When accelerating or at a constant throttle it will give a burst of power without moving the throttle. I have replaced the IPC already and cleaned the IPR about a year ago which stopped everything until now. Doubt its the same issue again tho. Will def post codes when I get the program.
