sick 4.9
Seeking words of wisdom from the master gurus of Ford Trucks.
This truck refuses to run correctly if it even runs at all. I replaced the head because it had the audacity to crack. After the head was replaced the truck did start. Sounded really bad but it was running.Whole lotta shake,rattle,and rolled at a top speed of 40mph. Put my foot through the floor and nothing changed. Replaced all the parts that could have gone bad due to sitting for 7 months. Replaced the gas, dizy cap ,rotor,plugs,wires,IAC,TPI,air bypass,EGR components,coil,ign module,.Total bill of parts came to right at $400. Is there something I am missing? Will do a compression check in the morning. What kind of psi should I be looking for. Specific numbers or just close on all cylinders? I really need to get this truck running.
