How did you secure it in the cab?

No we did not.

We changed the fluid when we got the truck, but that was it. Probably time for it to be serviced also.

I wonder that when I first heard about this, but I don’t think so after driving it. I don’t feel a hard shifting or anything, just see the RPM’s raise and drop.

What do you mean by percussive? I have tested by reving the engine while testing and have seen or heard nothing other than an loud 3FE running. He has been having EFI relay issues and I was going to move it into the cabin.

Any ideas? I’m going to work on this some for my son. I was thinking about getting a new TPS and cleaning the throttle body as well as checking the air flow sensor. Would you call the video “ruff idle”?

I thought about moving it , I haven’t seen that done anywhere though. If it made the problem go away, it would be worth it.

I was going to skin the bundle of wires back also and check to see if some are crispy or broken.

After testdrive heres what i noticed. This happens while under more than half throttle, not sunday cruising it seems. The CEL blinks on in large jumps. Basically a single flash. Could this be injector problems?

Bad Idle Maybe this video will work. 92 80 series, 3FE At speed 40-50 MPH idle jumps around a lot. Massive jumps as seen in the video. No visible cracks in vacuum lines, no major changes in system. Ideas? Looking at the FSM now.

It’s the EFI port. The yellow part is a snap in piece that melted. I’m trying to get more pictures from my son now. It has fried 3 relays in the last month.

Is there a replacement 3FE Relay Box? Our 92' EFI section of the relay box melted. The yellow section that snaps down on the plug.

It’s been sitting a few days waiting on me to get back to look at it. I assumed calipers, I just want to make sure everything else is working as it should.

Caliper is off the rotor and it will not spin. Moves maybe an inch or so. Caliper appears to be bad, one piston is sticking out 3 times further than the other ones and leaking fluid. Gear is in High Range. Center Diff is off.

Caliper seemed fine. Had him press the brakes a few times and it was working. Didn’t hear it dragging on the rotor. Rotor nor pads are ate up. Do not know about low range. I’ll have Togo look.
