Project "Swamp Fox"
Ok haven't gotten to mess with the truck in several days but did get to do the on-off key code checker thing. Pulling 2 codes P0113 and P0118 they are both high voltage codes one for IAT and one for ECT. Any ideas on these I don't know what causes these codes.
In my haste to get my codes I did a quick search I only have internet on my phone at home modem issue, anyway the ECT (coolant temp) is not plugged in because I have aftermarket guage sender in it's place which is also causing a check guages light. The IAT is plugged in but I am having a stalling issue maybe related. What is also curious is my oil pressure sender connection is unplugged again because of aftermarket gauge but not code for it.
Quick update:
Purchased a new IAC Sensor and TPS sensor and gonna clean the throttle body just a little insurance to keep the motor well.
Also got my 180* T-Stat as well as time to drain the break-in oil. I got a heck of a deal I think 5 Quarts of Mobil-1 Extended Perf and Extended Perf. oil filter (got the bigger one) for $34 (oil filter was $12 by itself had I done it seperatly.)
I am going to do my Leveling Kit this weekend, to anyone who has done one. I put one on an F-250 a year or so ago and it made the front actually taller than the front. On our trucks do the leveling kits acutally level or will I get a little "prerunner" look?

Bout at the end of my rope. Both sensors replaced still giving me a problem starting. Replaced T-stat still overheating. The oil pressure didn't drop below 44 which is an improvement. Should the metal piece inside radiator cap be loose when it is off? How can I tell if radiator is bad? Also I noticed when the engine is off the fan is hard to turn by hand which I found odd. Just tired of spending 100 bucks and 2 hours and getting nowhere.
