fuel starvation from somewhere? filters,, sometimes two filters one by the tank and another under bonnet, dont think its plugs, but you can remove and use small wire brush to clean them. check the plug electrode colour to see fuel burn pattern on cylinders, should be lite brown deposits on electrodes, white electrodes = overheating and black sooty electrodes = to rich fuel mixture.
You should remove the excess immediately. This can be done in two ways 1. Remove the drain plug on the pan under the motor. If you do not want to drain all of the oil, attach a vacuum hose from a vacuum cleaner at the oil fill on the valve cover. This creates a vacuum on th engine and prevents all the oil from draining at once. Otherwise 2. Drain all the oil and the refill to recommended level. Over fill of the oil creates air bubbles that prevent proper lubrication of the engine.
You never say make, model or year or engine type of this vehicle, but I can say that fuel pump voltage is module controlled on newer vehicles to save energy and make them quite, so it is entirely possible that is the correct voltage in a static test.

The replacement kits (includes Conversion Kit. Includes Switch And Bracket, Cowl Trim Door, Instruction Sheet) are the same for 2004 & 2005 models. Since it includes the trim, the kits are sold by the interior color. Ford discontinued just the switch (made a change) some time back. Ford OEM auto parts Motorcraft filters license plates
white can be water in the combustion process or faulty injectors
have a compression test done and have the injectors serviced by an accredited diesel service shop
Hi Allison:
If the work was done in a shop I would bring it back and review the problems with the service manager. Usually they are really good about getting it done right, without additional cost.
If this was a "home" job, there could be several different problems.
I'd be jacking it up and checking that there is no slack in the bearing installation. I'd also be looking for any reason that one brake would drag or slide. To exaggerate, if one rotor is greasy, and another one scored, braking will be different and the wheel will jerk.
Here's a fun way to check.
Find a large vacant space like an empty parking lot.
At about 10 kmp, very lightly hold the steering wheel, and sharply hit the brakes. Depending on how much fun you are having you can try it a bit faster. The steering wheel will sharply turn to the side that is getting the most braking force.
It won't take long to track down the problem.
Hope this helps.
Be safe.
Fix them ......... soon.
have you tried to check overheat gauge?? some temperature sensor? isn't that faulty?? I don't mean thermostat, but sensor...
is it really overheating, or gauge is showing overheating???
long time ago I had car that had same problem.... never overheated, but still signalized high temperature.....that time it was temperature sensor probably not compatible with correct one ....
Here's a pic of fusebox location on my 2005 Ford Ranger Edge 4.0 Far rear driver side engine compartment. I removed fuse cover to make it easier to see.
No fan switch , cooling fan relay ! located in the battery junction box under the hood in the engine compartment ! Go to www.bbbind.com for fuse box picture -location of relays ! click on technical information - then tsb's & wiring diagrams next page go to the bottom an click I agree - next page click wiring diagrams then enter vehicle info - then system click on power distribution , next -subsystem fuse panel ! Hope this helps ! Do you have volt ohm meter , check before you replace the relay ! Here is a video on how relays work an the circuits involved. VEHICLE RELAYS Operation Diagnosis Don't know if you know how a relay works !
PCV is located on the valve cover and runs to the intake tube, take the PCV out and shake it to make sure the valve is not stuck. PCVs are usually just replaced if in question because they only cost a few dollars.
Started knocking and shut off ? Now will not start?
That sounds bad - check fluids - engine oil and coolant - those three symptoms can indicate overheating (either by lack of coolant or engine oil).
Did either fluid get low AND does the engine oil look contaminated - milky colored and way overful.
Not Start? Does it turn the engine and just not fire up running?
Or does the engine not turn over at all?
If the engine is siezed - you can tell by the electrical power needed to crank the engine - turn on the lights and try to crank the engine - if all you hear from the starter is a click and all the lights dim - that means a lot of power is needed like:
1. the battery doesn't have enough power - jump start to verify
2. or it requires more power to turn the engine than the battery can provide - engine siezed - try turning the engine by hand with socket/wrench to verify.
I hope your engine is not siezed - if so - hope you still have warranty coverage on the powertrain.
Please let me know what you find and if this helps?
The code is easily available from and ford dealer, it is the easiest and the fastest way to get it back on.
