Hello,
I've been searching the internets for a while and reading my chilton's manual trying to diagnose the issue with my 1995 5.0.
Thought I would ask the collective brain power on here, and maybe get recommendations on a shop to handle this for me. (I'm in Rowlett, close to Garland)
Car ran fine till i stopped driving it mid last year. Sat for about a month, then got moved over to my house. I went to start it one day to go get it inspected and it cranked up but was bucking like it was misfiring. The exhaust note seems to compliment this, mostly on the left tail pipe. Now will not start.
What I have done: Cleaned MAF, IAC, Throttle body. Changed plugs - (old ones were black) #7 cylinder wire was torn up, replaced only it with old wire.
Changed fuel filter, and put a new Wahlbro 255 in it.
New MSD Coil
Changed TPI module
Verified cats were not clogged
New MSD Distributer
What it was doing:
Car cranks fine when cold. Does not crank when hot.
Some fluid (maybe unburned gas?) is coming out of the tail pipes. Before I changed the broken #7 wire, lots of fluid coming out of where the catback bolts to the midpipe.
When first hitting the throttle, car will hesitate, then rev.
Upon load (driving on and off car ramps, up and down my sloped driveway) The car will lose power, bog, and die. Idles fine. Rev's fine.
Now won't start - I pulled the codes - 118, 118 (hard Faults) 6sec pause 1 6sec pause 111, 111
My next steps:
Check for blown headgasket?
Thanks in advance.
