EGR Delete

[dhkelley89]

I have a 2004 F250, it has recently had the egr delete. I don't have a programmer or anything like that. In the mornings when I fire it up, it runs for about 2 seconds and dies, after that I have to crank it for about 10 seconds to get it to start up and it runs fine. Any ideas of what could be causing this?
Thanks

Air in the fuel lines

Would it get air in the fuel lines every day?

No, but if you just put it together it will. You had to pull the fuel bowl to get the intake off. Was it running fine after you did the delete, and then suddenly started with these issues?

yeah it had around 500 miles on it before it started doing this.

I would look at the FICM voltages. Sounds like that's where your issue is

And make sure that all of the connectors are seated correctly in the FICM. Sometimes the pins will bend and not give good enough contact for a good signal. There are two snaps on each connector, make sure they're both secure on all plugs

FICM Bro! I would take 2-3 days and send it off and have it checked. If it is the FICM it will keep getting worse and if you dont catch it in time it can start eating up your injectors.

where would be a good place to send it?

There are a few, but I had mine rebuilt by Bullet Proof diesel. Fix it once and for all BPD FICM

OR just do like I did (I had mine repaired before the BPD FICM was available) BPD FICM repair
