Why is my 2004 Ford F150 (5.4L 3V Triton Engine) throwing the following codes: P0022, P0171, and P0355?
I know why it's throwing the P0022 code and it's due to the infamous cam phaser tick, but I'm mainly concerned with the misfire in cylinder 5. The latter two codes happened after replacing spark plugs and ignition coils. Overall I have done the following in the past 30 days: replaced fuel filter, fuel drive pump module (by spare tire), all spark plugs (Motorcraft SP515), all ignition coils (Accel), cam position sensors, VCT solenoids ("upgraded" Ford version), cleaned throttle body and MAF sensor. Now as for troubleshooting regarding cylinder 5 I switched fuel injector, ignition coil pack, AND spark plug (all at different times of course) and the code would NOT follow. I don't hear any vacuum leaks and I used a noid test kit to determine it's not the wiring harness for the fuel injector and ignition coil. IMO it could only be a clogged cat or a bad PCM… My truck has 152K miles. If you need to know anything else, just ask.
1. Get the compression and wet compression on Cylinder 5 and compare to a neighboring cylinder
2. Buy the $70 borescope style cam from the Harbor Freight and stick it in the Cyl 5 spark plug hole and manually turn over the crank - any scaring? Valves moving? Anything that should not be there?
See a mechanic with a diagnostic scan tool. Good mechanics troubleshoot first before replacing parts.
The last two codes, the bank 1 too lean and the coil E primary circuit issue, both came after you worked on it!
P0355 likely #5 coil connector or wiring… This is not P0305 misfire code.
- My 2001 Ford Ranger is running rich! CEL is on and it's throwing 2 codes: P1132 & P1152? Coil pack, spark plugs wires are less then 6 months old. New O2 sensors, TPS, MAF, IAC, new fuel injectors and fuel pressure regulator! Idle rpm is about 1500 when engine is warm and surges when truck is in drive and drops extremely low in reverse. Black smoke has covered exhaust tips and the rich smell is very strong from exhaust while truck is running. Truck has 180,000 miles and is a V6.
- 1998 Ford Mustang 3.8 V6 lean codes P0171, P0174 & P1151? I'm getting these codes and I can't exactly figure out what is causing this. Engine idles fine. Isn't misfiring or running rough. But it does surge a little bit when driving at about 35 mph. Hasn't died on me once either.
- What parts are needed to do an engine tune up on a 2005 ford F150 Lariat with the 5.4 triton 4x4? I bought a 2005 ford F150 and has 144,000 miles on it. It is running really rough, so i want to do a tune up on this. What is needed to do a full tune up on it, i mean down to the very part. Any advice for the best way to do it as well?
- I have a 2004 ford f-150 5.4 triton new body style and the exhaust makes noise? It does not make the noise when i'm in park or neutral however when i put it in reverse or drive it starts making like a ratttle noise? kind of sounds like the ehaust is loose but when my boyfriend checked under it it seemed fine. It only does it about 15 minutes after being started but there's days when there's no noise at all
