IPR Issues?

Hey everyone, it's been awhile.
I would like some input on my problem please. I got my truck running again, helicoil fix. On the way to town it took a ****, running rough, sputtering. Towed it to shop. they told me it was a IPR problem. So I got one from Bob, diesel Orings.com. I put it in, because he wanted to charge me 1.5 hours @ 105 per. It worked great. Also quieted down my motor knocking. (first thing I thought of was Tugly..he was right) I was so happy. Two days later did the same thing. Called Bob from Diesel Orings and he told me it was my ICP. So I buy one. Did not work. Bought another IPR thinking that I got a bad IPR the first time. It worked great for a few miles until it warmed up. Running like **** again. I don't understand. I'm about ready to pull my hair out. If it wasn't for bad luck, I would not have any luck at all.

I don't remember Jerry, do you have access to AutoEnginuity or have an Android based phone that you could download Torque Pro app? You have thrown a lot of money and parts at a problem that a scan tool would help us help you so much better than guessing. If you have a laptop, you should get AE with the Ford Enhanced bundle, then we can log some data and really figure this thing out.

First: While it was running, did you run all the air out of the oil (about 50 miles)?

Second: This is starting to smell like injector O-rings or sticks. We really need to know your ICP and IPR readings to abbreviate the troubleshooting process.

Third: That last link in my signature may help.

Fourth: If a scan gauge is out of the question - the Cody test might yield a clue. Just remember to put a rag around the air nozzle.
