Good pics! I did a search on google for Power Stroke injection pressure regulator. It turned up all kinds of information and diagrams. The best one showed a step by step photo and text "how to". It was easy but watch out when taking the regulator apart. There are several really small parts inside. Go to Ford and get a O-ring kit for the regulator. Good luck. PK

So did you just put in new o rings or a new IPR or what to fix it? I don't have a scanner and my truck is still down going on 2.5 weeks now.

I'm wondering if buying a scanner and diagnosing myself would end up being more cost effective anyway. Between a computer and you guys I'm sure I could do it.

Yeah, it's looking like I'm going to try that after a lot of stuff I've read on here and elsewhere. How can I get it out without making the "IPR removal tool"?

I've got Craftsman(wouldn't have any other) but I don't think I've got one that big. Maybe though...

I found it easier to remove the fuel filter housing. Also might as well replace the blue hoses to the pump at this point. The nut that holds the solenoid on is a light stamped thing and is 3/4" A good deep socket will then fit the IPR. Be ready for oil to flow out into the valley. Disassembly is easy but be careful not to mar the surfaces and watch the orientation of the small pieces inside. I cleaned the insides with a spray of WD-40. When putting the solenoid nut back on don't over tighten it, it will distort it. The O-ring kit comes with a new solenoid nut. Check the plug wires for damage. On mine all the rubber insulation was gone and the wires were touching. I used RTV to repair that problem. PK
