I am thinking dump O2 sensors and add some headers. No inspections here

Pretty sure OBX makes them for 6.2 also.

If it's lean it's not running ok, there's an issue somewhere. You mean losing the rear sensors? Losing the upstream sensors isn't really possible.

I got the how much is that

 

No worries it will sound better :)

There is no performance change whatsoever

 

Idle is fine, acceleration fine once I get home I will start looking into it

 

Maybe a bad MAF sensor?

I still need to get my o2 sensors tuned out and clean my throttle body because of headers

CRC makes a cleaner for that. Used it on a half dozen cars with no ill effects.

Yea I have a can

 

Engine light went off prior to going home drove 3 hrs no light. We will see

Ryan dumping the O2s won't help. You have a total of 4- the rearmost pair monitors cat efficiency. Headers and a tune can delete those. This was detected by the pre-cat sensors and is likely a legit issue.

 

I doubt it's a fueling issue.

 

 

Could be a dirty or malfunctioning MAF, especially if you have a K&N filter.

 

Could be a loose PCV hose. You added a catch can right? Check those fittings. I think a loose intake tube connection can do this too. Basically any intake leak past the MAF will do this.

 

O2 sensors could be bad but a dual failure seems unlikely.

A few years ago through North Dakota bugs were so bad at dusk made the truck look like it was growing hair up front.

Mosquitos, small black flies. It's why birds migrate back north, to get their fill.

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
