Nope. New code. I cleared codes as soon as I wrote them down so I could see if they returned.

Mike (M-Chan68) schooled us on the differences by model years the other day.

6.0 Model *Year differences

*07-15-2012, 11:42 AM

Okay, it seems that everyone is a little confused with regards to what HPOP is used with which model year engine, so I will do my best to clear things up. First, let's start of with the 2003 engine. This will be the model year engine that uses the early aluminum swash plate style HPOP, the earlier of the two IPR valves available for this engine (3C3Z-9C968-AA/CM-5054). The part number from Ford for the HPOP for this engine is 3C3Z-9A543-AARM.

Now onto the LATE-2004 engines. This is the model year that many changes were made, including the piston dome size (rendering glow plugs non-interchangeable between early and late engines), the switch to the wavy rails and the location of the ICP sensor that all of you are well aware of. However, this particular model year of engine still retained the use of the swash plate style HPOP with a different part number 4C3Z-9A543-AARM. If you were to place this pump side by side with an '03 model year engine pump, they would appear identical. And to be honest with you, I couldn't tell what the internal differences between the two pumps are, other than the information found on page #29 of this document:

DTS Articles - Coffee Table Books

The reason being, at the dealership level, we simply replace the pumps when there are issues with them. We don't disassemble them. And, if it matters, this particular model year engine uses the earlier IPR valve (3C3Z-9C968-AA/CM-5054), but uses the later model year injectors.

Now onto the 2005 and up engines. This is the style that originally used the dreaded STC fitting that everyone likes to change up to the one-piece updated branch tube connector (that were installed on 2008 and newer E-Series application engines from new). Not sure what else to say about this version of pump, other than the fact that it is a V-4 cast iron pump that has been far less problematic overall than the '03/'04 style pumps. And lastly, the part number for this pump is 5C3Z-9A543-C, and uses the later model year IPR valve (5C3Z-9C968-CA/CM-5126).

The only other thing I can think of that's worthy of mention is for '03/'04 owners thinking of switching to the '05 and newer style pumps, don't even think about it. For an '03 the later branch tube will not work with the '03 thread in style standpipes. And for you late '04 owners, changing out a branch tube is far more work than it's worth, just to put in a '05 style pump.

HOPEFULLY this clears things up.

Thats good info for HPOP but I'm talking about the frame mounted fuel pump or HCFM or some such acronym. I have no or very low fuel pressure

Sorry for the confusion. I copied the wrong part of the earlier thread. I meant to reference the STC and ICP locations being discussed earlier in this thread.

Oil cap is OEM as is the filter. Thats all I've ever used.

I used a 18V drill battery with a short chunk of wire.

I replaced the pump this AM and drove 200 miles home with no issues at all. I think it is safe to say that the pump was shot. It only had about 30,000 miles on it though.... The original had 245,000 before I changed it and it was still running. I only changed it because I didn't want to be left along side of the road. That worked out real well.

Right with ya

You need to see ICP & IPR% Operating values with those you can verify HPO System Health

IIRC Edge wont show IPR%

If you cant see Both ICP & IPR% all you can do is wait for it to DIE
