Car Forum / Ford / Ford Trucks / March 20052002 f250 7.3 hard to start
Last 4 days I have had two problems with my truck. After strating I had gone a few feet and the motor just stoped but restarted easy ?. Today I had to try three times before it would run , and after that all seems fine now ?. I would like to know if anyone can tell me what the problem could be . Thanks for any help on the above. Most likely needs a cam position sensor. > Last 4 days I have had two problems with my truck. After strating I had gone > a few feet and the motor just stoped but restarted easy ?.

If so, your batteries could be weak, glow plugs or controller could be bad, or it could just be way too cold to be starting without plugging in. If it isn't cold, you could need a cps. Thanks for the help I will take the truck in to the ford dealer next week to get it tested and repaired nwwk week .They said it would take about one or two hr to change the cps . > >Last 4 days I have had two problems with my truck.

It is held on by two bolts, and located on the left front of the flywheel as you're looking at it. Unless the bolts are completely froze up, it shouldn't take more than about ten minutes to change. > >Thanks for the help I will take the truck in to the ford dealer next week to > >get it tested and repaired nwwk week .They said it would take about one or [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > flywheel as you're looking at it.

And that 10 minutes includes a 5 minute coffee break. >> It is held on by two bolts, and located on the left front of the >> flywheel as you're looking at it.

I broke two sockets trying to get the f******* bolts off. After a I couldn't get enough torque on a wrench and lost a third socket in the gravel driveway I paid too much to have somebody else fight with it. Hopefully it'll be easier next time, I carry one in the glove box just in case. > >> It is held on by two bolts, and located on the left front of the > >> flywheel as you're looking at it.

Next time put a little Kroil on the problem bolt and tap it lightly with a small ball peen hammer. >> >> It is held on by two bolts, and located on the left front of the >> >> flywheel as you're looking at it.

I'll try it, anything beats the price I paid. If the bolt isn't frozen in place, replacing the cps is a 10 minute job at the most. That includes a 5 minute coffee break. > Thanks for the help I will take the truck in to the ford dealer next week to > get it tested and repaired nwwk week .They said it would take about one or [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > way too cold to be starting without plugging in.
