Hey guys I just got an 02 7.3 powerstroke a few. Ugh ya ago he told me it needed a idm but after I went and looked and finally got the truck to crank it ran great and he really didn't no what he was talkin about much like myself. I have replaced the ipc and cps but truck still wants to suddenly die while driving and another trick it started a little whole ago is it will now idle but won't hardly let me rev it just sputters. What's rong woth my truck?! Help plz

WELCOME TO THE ORG !!! Clean oil? Right oil at proper level? Clean fuel and filter? Water in fuel? Proper fuel pressure / good strong pump? Loose or chaffed valve cover / injector wiring harness? Loose or chaffed Injector Driver Module harness (IDM inside driver fender well)? Good luck...

Could be the wiring under valve cover I guess i don't no why I put the new sensor in and it caused this tho

 

[AU7POINT3]

may not be the new sensor causing it, but something else wiggled loose along the way.

 

[AU7POINT3]

Not likely the new sensor, but something else wiggled loose or chaffed along the way.

I agree after continuously messing with it I got it running a and drove 15 miles no issues but left it in the driveway idling suddenly once again it's like ilyou cut the key truck started right back up tho. I do notice when it is running it doesn't sound quite right tho. I left it sitting for awhile and came back started it and same thing sputters and sputters until I cut it off and start it 20 times and the engine gets warm then it seems to rub decent still doesn't sound correct tho. I'm leaning twards injector harnesses what do you all think?? Thanks for the help!

Do you know any one who has a diagnostic scanner?

If guy you purchased from said it needed an IDM then maybe it does.

You can get one on ebay for 130$ exchanged from a place down here in FL

I no I sound dumb right now but i grew up in cummins trucks. So if idm codes are detected would you bet it's bad or I have to find a way to read those to find my issue? Sorry I'm so dumb with these things and thanks for the help

 

[LoxDiesel]

Nah i have a snap on scanner. When an IDM is bad the ONLY code it gives me states "IDM codes detected". Change it.
