  1. DO NOT MESS WITH THAT CAM SENSOR! The EGR stuck open is the first thing that needs addressed! The Cam sensor will almost NEVER make it missfire, or even run bad on that thing. The cam sensor is there just so that the engine will know what cylinder is which for misfire detection, and sequential fuel injection. The ignition is all run off the crank sensor, ONLY. I think it does have 2 crank sensors though, one that goes to the ignition control module (does all the firing of the plugs, provides the rough crank location to the computer. Then it probably has a higher resolution crank sensor, usually a 24x signal that's used for misfire detection, that runs straight to the computer.

    Wondered when you'd chime in!

  2. Lube it with grease. Clean it with a brillo pad or sand paper. Rust tends to build up and will make it hard to get the old out and could rip the o-ring on the new one. You want to try to avoid letting the crap fall inside the motor so don't shoot brake cleaner into it. You could use a rag with brake cleaner to wipe it out though.

    It could be wiring and that would take schematics and a troubleshooting guide. Could be a bad connector or corrosion in it. I don't know what the failure rate it on those. Most of the ones I've changed are on Chryslers.

  3. It is 4x4 and was told it isn't that easy. Are they BSing me?

    It's just surface rust as of now and certainly not at a point where you can poke a hole in it with a finger... Just is bubbled slightly...

    That is the way Ford tell you how to do the oil pan, by pulling the engine.

    Oil Pan Gasket>See engine removal

    So no they weren't BS'ing you. The transmission is just easier to remove and then jack up the engine off the motor mounts.

  4. I think she's one of those artists that can sound great in a recording studio but put her in a "live" environment and she just can't pull it off. I don't follow her at all so maybe she's just having a bad day?

  5. Sucks dude. I had a problem like that on my 870. First time I had racked the slide it jammed. Hasn't since then, thinking it was just a break in issue. I fired 4 through mine today going after some rabbits. Just make sure you rack the slide hard back and forward. Don't "limp wrist" it.

  6. KILL THEM ALL!!! I hope hunters chase these little bastards wherever they want! If you don't have fences around your land then its fair game! Deer kill more riders every year and it has to stop. Plus they eat my garden every year and for once i'd like to have a full harvest and not just peices the deer left behind. SHOOT AWAY!

    :nono:

    We should should put up more deer crossing signs and make them cross there. That way they wouldn't be such a hazard. :rolleyes:

  7. My dad has this problem too. People showing up on his land without permission. They usually blame it on that they were following their dogs or they didn't know. The sound of a shotgun loading usually makes them reconsider where they are at.

    Although he did have a couple guys ask if they could go check to see if a deer they shot (bow) had wandered up there. He had no problem since they asked. They even told they'd pay him and give him some deer if he'd let them hunt their next year. Dad can't turn down venison. :)
