Ok, Sorry should have given you more info.
Things that I have already tried:
1: changed out the CPS, no change after swapping that out.
2: changed the UVC's on both sides, still no change.
3:Unhooked the IPC- no change/ but has a small amount of oil inside the plug in.
4: Unhooked the MAT- no change
5: unhooked the IAT- no change
6: When I pulled the chip out it runs the same as with the chip in and on stock setting.
I have to turn the chip up to at least Daily Driver to get any power out of the truck.
7: unplugged one side at a time (UVC's) major change in the way the truck runs.
8: The truck has a Gray CPS in it now but I just swapped that out with a new Black one- still no change.
Now for more info on the way the truck runs:
It feels like it is missing on 1 or 2 cylinders only, No major knocking on one side or the other, of the motor. The motor will shake when idling, and all the way up through the rpm range. Loss of power through the whole rpm range, but seems to get a lot better when at 2200 and above, but might just be the power band of the motor.
No the truck has never acted up without the chip, until now.
9: Ok, when I pull the chip out of the truck, no matter what tune it is turned to, does that return the truck back to stock?
10: Or does the PCM still have the tune programmed into it?
11: This truck has never had an update done to it, the PCM, could that be a problem?
12: how do I check the IPR? Can I just unplug it, like the IPC and it go to Default?
I don't have a scanner that will read the truck codes, that is why I took it to Ford Garage. All I have for a scan tool is a Actron CP9180. It will come up with a lot of codes, but can't do the contribution tests or buzz test.
Ford garage came up with no codes present, except the one that tells them it had a tuner in it, so they told me.
13: How much do I have to spend on an AutoEnginuity software to diagnos these problems with the 7.3 motor/ truck. I already have a laptop computer.
Thanks for all the help, Troy You can call me at 319-432-4648
