    How could rocker arms, even poorly adjusted, result in accessory bolts backing out of the heads?

    it was a question in general, a stupid question but i asked because i didn't know and that's it, im still getting into learning this stuff. i allready went threw the auto body crap and now i want to start learning the performance aspect.

    who hasn't asked a stupid question? some more then others but you get the point.

    First of all Ryan if you look on page one you already answered the same question he asked, why do you have to answer it again, all you had to say was go to page one, he obviously didnt read it all.

    Mods when is Ryan going to get the ban, he dosent own a 5.0 and just pisses us all off. I was trying to be nice but seriously that was one of the dumbest questions ive ever heard, drop it, nothing you say will make up for it. DONE.

    surprise :D



































































    j/k I am still trying to find the demon in my fuel system so I pulled the upper intake and fuel rail, but all of my injectors are good :( so it's not that, but I ran out of good weather so I had to button it up monday night. It's gotta be electrical I am getting tired of throwing money and time at it...

    fuel filter= new FPR= new Fuel pressure at 40 psi... But it just won't stop priming! The fuel pump runs and runs, but once it stops it starts right up, runs rich for a few min. then runs perfect

    Mine is wired to a relay seperate of the computer, so it primes as soon as the key is on. Its been like that for 4 years, doesn't bother me since it doesn't come on in the accessory position.

    Edit: Why on earth would you pull the injectors and FPR because the fuel pump doesn't stop priming?

    Well the pump should shut off after 2-5 seconds. I thought that the pressure reg. wasn't doing its job by stopping the flow when pressurized, I was wrong. Then I heard a hiss noise coming from the injector/ rail area and thought that an injector was just letting fuel right into the chamber by not shutting, but again I was wrong. It has never done this before and it refuses to start when the pump is priming, but in warm weather or when it stops priming after bout 10min it starts

    The FPR never stops the flow, it just bypasses excess fuel back to the tank to regulate pressure. The hiss you heard was the fuel bypassing back to the tank. Does it throw any codes?

    yeah, it says the EGR is erratic or not closing, but IDK why that would cause it to not start

    Is the EGR code 34? My car throws that code, so its not the problem. I would be tempted to try to find a known working mass air computer just to rule out that as the problem. Its very unlikely the computer is the problem, but it doesn't hurt to make sure.
