6.0L High Pressure Oil System IPR Air Test Fitting
Has anyone tried one of these, can anyone confirm this is a superior method for chasing down leaks? If no first hand experience, based on what you see and read, does it make sense that it should be the "kitty's bum" for diagnosing leaks?
I'm new at this, this is my first no start since the engine ran out of extended warranty. Ford has replaced over the years a couple EGR coolers, HG's, 7 of the 8 injectors, IPR, IPC, EGR, blue spring, new stand pipes, turbo, yup it's had it all. I did FICM a few months ago. Batteries are excellent.
I got lucky, the no start happened right in my garage. Here's what I know based off of AE testing
KOEO:
FICM=48v
ICP=.24v
ICP 14.84%
Cranking:
FICM=48+v,
FICM Sync=1
ICP=.68v, ,
ICP 390-400psi (desired 1514)
IPR duty: 84.77%
So my first guess is a HPO leak, not an stuck or failed IPR based on the .68v from the ICP, if it was under .5v then the IPR would be a stronger suspect, does that make sense?
I have an adapter arriving tomorrow to test with shop air through the ICP port.
Being I'm a newbie at this and would prefer to throw money at better tools than parts that don't need replacing, would I be better to wait and order the test fitting for the IPR instead of the ICP fitting based on description in the above link of how accurate and more efficient this method of testing is suppose to be?
Any insight would really be appreciated. Thank you!
