Intermittent Code 41

Hello Folks,


I'm looking for some guidance before I change my injectors. A little about my rig:


93 F-350 XLT 7.5L
crew cab truck
188,000 miles


trouble I'm having is with an Intermittent Code 41 (Lean) only visible during the engine running test and does not store, and I have not noticeable issues with it running


I have changed the follow:


PCV valve
EGR valve
Oxygen sensors


Doe any one have any guidance for me?

You only have one oxygen sensor so I assume the above is a typo. Check your fuel pressure with the engine running at idle.

Yea Sorry just one O2 sensor






Just got back from getting a new pressure gauge and it was 19 not running and 34 running and produced about 3oz in 30 seconds thru the bleeder port.


I did fail to mention it has new plugs, wires cap, and rotor.


What sound does a leaking injector make?

Vacuum leak.

Still have the original, brittle nylon vacuum lines? If so, start checking them.

I would lean more towards an exhaust leak.

I did have them but I replaced most of them. I guess I may need to see if I missed one. I can also look for exhaust leaks . I feel, hear or sense no issues with drive ability that is why I was thinking a week injector. More to follow




Thanks Guys
