ICP acting up after recent work.

So my '06 has almost 800mi since oil and EGR coolers and STC update. On a cold start (less than 80*) my ICP (on ScanGauge) starts at 800+ and creeps up to 1100+ at idle. If I drive the truck it will go a couple hundred yards then suddenly accelerate and engine noise increases. About every third time this happens I get a CEL and code 2284 -ICP range/performance. If I let it sit and idle, when ECT gets up to 120 or so ICP will slowly drop as it continues to warm up until it's down to 580 ( normal for me). Interesting also is that IPR is rock steady at 14.1 through all this. It will grudgingly go up if I try to drive it. Once ICP is acting normally, IPR straightens up also. Truck runs well and no issues after warmed-up. Quick look at ICP sensor and wiring everything seems ok. I'm thinking pull the IPR and check screen, am I on the right track?

KO=14.84 LI=24 HI=40.60 OR=0-50 %

Sounds like the IPR screen is clogged to me Rusty. Mine was doing the same thing but I didn't get a code on my 04.

Thanks guys, I was afraid of that. ICP is so much easier to get to. A couple people warned me that it's common to trash the screen after repairs, hopefully valve is still ok. My co-worker I borrowed the socket from before is on vacation, just ordered one for myself from local parts store.
If the screen has trash on it, can I just clean it? It's new. I also still have my old one, it looked fine when I pulled it. I assume if the screen is broken I'll need a new IPR?

my screen was covered with lint and it's easily cleanable. I had a new IPR so I put it in. I'd try cleaning it before replacing it with only 800 miles especially if it doesn't have a hole in it. If you still have problems then...........

Looks like Saturday morning is planned.
My first thought when I saw the 2284 was to snag a ICP sensor and a 5min swap, but thanks to the heads up I knew to look a bit past the simple fix. Glad to be a FTE member!

Turbo removal not required although I did it from top and underneath. The special socket would have made it a LOT faster but I had to manufacture one.

Socket is a OTC 6765 OTC6765 OTC TOOLS 6765 - Ford 6.0 IPR Inject Pressure Regulator Socket
It doesn't say on it what size it is but it's smaller than the nut on the oil filter cap so I think it's a 34mm. 36 would probably work ok as 2mm ain't much difference on a socket this size.

1 3/8 is 34.925 mm. I think a 34 mm socket would be a touch too small

Hey Mark,
Is there a general rule of thumb on these trucks about what's metric and what's SAE?
