UVCH problem?

I have a late 2003 F250 with a 7.3.

factory built in october 2002.

I always assumed the UVCH was resolved before mine was built but you never know.

I have the following codes.

P0683 - this code has has been lingering around for a while
p1211
p1280

It just runs terrible, stalls, makes me miss meetings etc.

when it cools down it seems to run better for a short while.

Thanks for any imput.

The IPR was replaced a few months ago, i pulled the cover off of it and it was pretty oily.

Thanks for any input.



Alan

That's a sign your ICP is bad and needs to be replaced.

Unplug the ICP, start it, and see if it runs any better. If it does, that's your most likely culprit.

Also make sure the tin nut on the back or the IPR is on tight.
