  1. Intake Valve Cleaning

    Curiosity sets in - What do my valves look like @ 30k miles? When I get some time to - Play - I may visit this and scope again. Last scope @ 8700 - playing with scope , not a detailed one. Just want to provide a base data for our Rangers to see how much is actually accumulated. With work (busy)...
  2. Intake Valve Cleaning

    Yes - its really hard to say - how effective any cleaner is - without a Before & After Compare even with a - Professional Cleaning Solution, you are shortcutting (Cost) to achieve the main goal that I do not believe will do the same job as a walnut blast. Would multiple - processes eventually...
  3. Intake Valve Cleaning

    Not upstream but yes - Downstream exhaust flow - if induced correctly Its just the speed of the turbo that brings in the -potential of damage A large piece of debris has the potential to - Knick the blades or deform them a (Approximated) speed of the turbo @ 2,000 RPM (Engine Speed) and No Load...
  4. Intake Valve Cleaning

    For me - The Debate is dependent on - How much carbon deposits are present on the back side of the Intake Valves If light to moderate - then the cleaner should dissolve the carbon small enough to expel it safely past the (Hot Side) of the turbo If Heavy deposits - the carbon (COULD) be large...
  5. Bad Shake 45-65mph - Vid

    Check your - Transmission Support Mount and Crossmember as well as motor mounts
  6. Auto stop/start disable?

    Yes, this is just a short-cut way to change the (2) As-Built lines But - I am noting something here and am curious if this line (Auto-Changes) when you select (Disable) from this (BCM) Screen I am looking at - BMS - PWM - with the BMS - ASS - Enabled - this reads LIN If this is auto changing -...
  7. EGR DPFE Sensor Assembly Replacement Write-Up (LB5Z-9J433-B)

    For a compare - 92 degrees the EGRT in the tube fluctuates between 140 and 176 EGR closed and open - via a quick test drive - so slightly hotter than a winter drive - the tube holds the heat
  8. Cant explain, after oil change truck runs/shifts better?

    Yes as Ranger Bill notes we have both ECT is primary and CHT is a secondary (PCM - Crosscheck) The ECT drives the gauge display and the CHT drives (Fail-Safe) conditions such as pegs the gauge full (red) and also takes over if ECT becomes erratic - such as coolant loss The ECT is emersed in...
  9. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Lived in Boulder City for a short period - visited the beach area some and although I literally lived so close to the Dam, I never took the tour. Curious what the shoreline looks like now. Loved BC - and visited the (Railroad Pass) quite a bit, I wonder if gambling is still illegal inside the...
  10. Auxillary switch panel

    If referring to Do all Rangers have the required connectors (to simply) be plug n play and all you need is the (Aux Switch Box) no I do not think so as far as cab / dash wiring - especially since this would be a - HIGHY (Wanted) Mod - We would need the wire harness to have wiring available at...
  11. EGR DPFE Sensor Assembly Replacement Write-Up (LB5Z-9J433-B)

    Here is an example of a - Live Data (Event) - EGR Valve opened to EGR Valve Closed - Total Estimated duration time - Zero to Zero about 30 seconds In this example (IF) we have a DPFE sensor that is not reporting correct (Voltage & Pressure) then the PCM would react by commanding the (EGR...
  12. EGR DPFE Sensor Assembly Replacement Write-Up (LB5Z-9J433-B)

    As I have stated - I did a deep dive into the compete EGR System, this is an example of the EGR Tube section - there are quite a few variables - I have not had the time to fully complete the document but this section (as it is currently written) provides a basic overview of the moisture...
  13. HVAC Plenum door actuator issues

    So, you are getting a code - for (Left Temperature (Damper Motor) - Actuator) ? Code (?) not posted. The only issue you have is - No AC (Operation) - the AC Clutch will not engage? and you do not have any AC at all - both sides? How did you check Freon Charge? We have a variable compressor...
  14. HVAC Plenum door actuator issues

    Yes - more details on - what is not working correctly and the specific code you pulled.
  15. Cruise Control Automatic Braking

    Deceleration - - Sometimes auto correct will change what I type:blush:
  16. 2019 Ranger Intermittent No-Crank, Multiple Modules offline

    Do not replace the - GWM at this point with the wet harness and burned connectors - this is the source. All the modules listed on your post are all on the - HS1 - Can Bus, now indirectly the short created by the water ingress - shorted the Can Bus Circuit and it lost the ability to communicate...
  17. Cant explain, after oil change truck runs/shifts better?

    Same part name - but the radio (whine) remover was mounted externally of the distributor if i recall it was mounted with the coil.
  18. Cruise Control Automatic Braking

    Did some digging and I was close but not 100% on the mark. Its not the - Brake Pressure that determines - Stop Lamp (Illumination) it's the decarceration rate that is reported by the (RCM -Restraint Control Module) the RCM holds the accelerometers and gyros. So small brake applications (via ABS...
  19. Cant explain, after oil change truck runs/shifts better?

    Anyone here old enuff ever ponder why the capacitor in points based ignition was improperly called a condenser ? I actually know this one - early on it was believed to - Condense and Pack the energy, wow I remembered something from (High-School) Auto Tech class. Ironically never had to deal...
  20. Cruise Control Automatic Braking

    You will know if (AEB) triggered the braking - the - ALERT - will startle you, in fact recently - the alert triggered (alert only) but I was already on the brakes - DEER - I will say - the truck has proven to me on more than 1 occasion - it will stop on a dime. The Alert - is a 3 Tone Chime and...
