try turning the wheel left and right while turn the key other wise the cylinder is locked and needs to be replaced.

Have changed some through fender well. A swivel will be helpfull if you don't have one.

FUEL FILTER LOCATED INSIDE OF THE LEFT FRAME RAIL.

You need what is called A DPFE sensor for Code P0401. It is a small sensor that has to rubber hoses attached to it goin to exaust pipe. Basic part# 9J460.

Yes it should. All of the lights on the cluster are supposed to come on durring the "idiot light test"

Usually beside motor. That never goes bad, what is the problem?

Most logical culprit, in my opinion, is the headlight switch.

it turned out to be the relay in the black box under the hood that the owners manual shows as unused. the diagram shows 1 through 13 I believe, and towards the front of the vehicle is a relay not shown that is forward or above the #1 relay that comes on when the ignition switch is turned on. Simply replace the relay, from Ford or a parts store, and away you go.

Easiest way I know of seeing if it is stuck in 4WD is to put the vehicle on Jack stands and start it up, put it in drive...

sounds like a weak fuel pump.Check fuel pressure if not within specs replace pump.It should be 56-72 psi with key on engine off.

P1151 means a lean bank 2 O2 sensor
P1152 Means a rich bank 2 O2 sensor
P1309 Means miss fire detected
I would check your fuel injector for fouling
When they foul the will develop a drip
Causing a fuel fluctuation that will have O2 sensors reporting rich and lean voltage changes
This causes the pcm to adjust injector pulses making them shorter and longer.
causing more fuel or less fuel.
From this condition you may see plug fouling.
Also check for leaking or faulty fuel pressure regulator or restricted return line.
Most of the time it wont be a bad O2 sensor the O2 sensor is just doing its job.
You also have already changed the plugs and Map so there already out of the way.
If this helps please give me some feed back
Hope this works for you FixYa

tune up replace plugs and wires if did and still shudders check coil packs

I suggtes check in the next link for the OWNERS MANUAL

Hope helps.

Hi, first check the park lmp fuse (#3) in the cab to see if that has blown. If good, suspect your headlight switch is bad. You can get a new switch for under $20 at autozone. Please let me know if you have questions, and thanks for using FixYa.

I belive its the top one, a good test to make sure is to remove the top line and put a hose on the end of it and stick into a container to catch oil, then hold a container under the fitting on radiator and have someone spin the engine and watch where the oil comes from, for example if oil comes out the line then you know the bottom is the return but if oil come out fitting from radiator then top is the return, hope this helps.

You may be much happier with purchasing a rebuilt unit, typically there are many pieces that cannot be changed without special tools.

The code relates to the iac module or Idle Air Control module, it is located near the throttle body held on by 2 bolts. Ford part numberF75E-9F715-AA or autozone TV229. not too expensive. this applies to the 3.0 v6 if you have a 4.0 or 4cylinder. use the proper designation at the dealer or auto parts store.

the crank sensor , senses that the crank is turning, and how fast. these readings are then used by the computer to adjust the engine management for best performance.

If the crank sensor is not sensing the crank turning it wont allow the ignition to spark

Ouch, when this happens I'd have a competent shop look at it. Usually when a belt breaks it takes alot of other engine parts with it (valves, etc..) Sometimes you can get lucky, but I'd have a shop look it over, plus they'll offer a warranty on their work.
