Truck would NOT start??
changed my fuel filter yesterday afternoon like i have done many times before. drove the truck last night. got home form work today, go to start the truck wont start just keeps turning over. does finaily start then lopes like it has a cam then shuts off. try to start again and nothing, then it starts fine but romps some then run fine. let run for 15 min with no problem. no SES light is on with 1280 code. last time started it worked fine. oil level was fine. ANY IDEAS?? What does 1280 code mean?

Correct me if i am wrong. but i remember that we can unplug the ICP and the truck should idle ok. To test it if it is giving problems. Coincidence of you filter change that the ICP crapped out?

But also make sure the fuel bowl is full of fuel when this is going on. Fuel issues have been known to throw an ICP code.

If you have an electric boost guage (Autometer) You can plug your guage into the ICP and crank. You'll beable to see if you are getting fuel. Multiply by 100.

ICP is on the front inboard side of the drivers head.
New codes might also mean an IPR issue, but don't rule fuel out just yet. Check the fuel level in the bowl, and check for a good stream out the drain tube with the key on. Then check the tin nut on the back of the IPR to make sure it's not loose and check the wiring going to the IPR to make sure the insulation is not brittle and the wires have shorted. IPR is on the drivers side head of the HPOP reservoir down low.

Crows foot wrench to remove the old one, but it's the size that half the sets out there seem to skip. Yes changing it is that easy, just don't over tighten. First make sure the wiring looks good with no burnt insulation or damaged pins in the connector.
Those sensors can be a pain, but for once, isn't it nice that you can just unplug one of them and make the truck start?

FYI they changed the size on these sensors, at some point. Same sensor but the nut portion of the sensor might be a difference size than the one on your truck. Don't let it freak you out.
