no codes.. ok will try unplugging . dam u guys work fast thank u ..and I did have a bad injector 4 months ago..it never would cut out prior to injector and custom tune ..I will un plug hydra first then icp sensor
Would be easier and faster to unplug ICP first, just saying

if it is that much better then drive her hard for 50 or so miles and see if it clears up the idle.

the potato comment was a joke when asking what you scan or read codes with since you never answered the question. so again, wtf are you reading codes with?

YES exhaust back press control valve..internal control modulr keep alive memory KAM error and intake heater circuit low but that's it ..and I unplugged icp sensor . ran it hard and no problem at all other than check engine light because icp unplugged and slight hesitation again probably because icp unplugged .do u guys agree..

Sadly, that's the rough price on them. Also now is a good time to solder in a new ICP pigtail. The price is even worse, $70 for a piece of wire and connector lol.

When my ICP went out it would run perfect then it would gallop and die. Start right back up and run perfect again then gallop and sometimes die. I thought it was funny that it would sit there idling with no HPOP pressure on the gauge. Then the gauge would jump to 500 and then back to zero. Nice to have gauges to diagnose with.
