SMJ, Thank you, Sir! I didn't think you would need to. However, I read a previous thread on this forum where a person said that he/she went to replace the pcv valve, only to find out that that the valve cover needed to come off to do so, which he or she did. Question: The insulator (Part#11810E) tha...

PCV Valve

Question: Does one have to remove the valve cover to replace said valve on a 2002 SE 4x4? As always, thank you all for your help/advice.

smj,

You are correct. On the 23rd I did post that code. However, it was a typo error on my part...my apologies. I meant to type P0430.

smj, From what I can tell those cam sensors run anywhere from 30-70 a piece. And, since the rig has not thrown any codes for a bad cam sensor, I'm hesitant about shooting from the hip and throwing parts at. However, thank you for the insight about those sensors and how they might lead to a false cod...

Update: I have driven the truck now for the past few days and managed to burn the gas down to a half tank. Additionally, I purchased a code reader and have been watching any/all codes that pop up. The first time the SEL came on it was producing 3 codes: P0420, P0430, and P0432. Since then, I have cl...

Okay, heres's one for you. Today, after driving about 10 minutes I get a SEL light. After running the self diagnostic I was able to pull 3 codes: P0420, P0430, and P0432. From what I read these codes all have to do with the O2 sensors and/or cats. What are the chances that it's just a sensor? The co...

Um, yeah, my cover is MIA. I guess I have to hit up some pick-n-pulls then.

Finished changing out all the oils, fluids, hoses, and oil cooler gasket today. Needless to say, I'm very happy. All of the oils/fluids I drained look dam near brand new. I was wondering: Do these rigs come with an engine skid plate? If so, I'm missing mine. With that said, anybody know where I can ...

Well, I decided I would just go ahead and change the upper/lower radiator hoses, along with the oil cooler hoses as well. In addition, I have decided that I'm just going to swap out serpentine belt and alternator belt now while I can. My son is not very mechanically inclined. So, the more little stu...

First and foremost, thanks for all the advice. I'm a mechanic by trade (jet mechanic), and have turned wrenches on all my own vehicles for the past 28 years. With that said, I picked up the rig today and brought it home. Earlier today, I went and bought all new oils/fluids for everything on the truc...

2002 4x4 SE

Hello all, Just purchased a used 2002 SE 4x4 for my son. I was wondering what I need to look out for in the not to distant future. Currently, the rig has 176k miles on it and runs like a raped ape. Tomorrow, I'll be changing out all the fluids: front/rear diffs, transmission, transfer, oil, and radi...
