    Help with a couple codes

    So what does that mean? I'm pretty sure it was set to tdc and we used the correct alignment tool. The old synchronizer was a pain to get out. It was stuck in there pretty good almost as if it was the wrong part and they hammered it in. The 96 part went in smoothly.

    Help with a couple codes

    I'm going to be real honest with you I don't want to have to take my engine all apart again to do this. It was a massive pain The whole reason we switched out those parts was because we got a code for it, sorry I don't remember what it originally was. So it was running like this before we...

    Clearing Codes

    Synchronizer and Sensor were replaced over a month ago. Tomorrow I will look into checking for a vacuum leak. Tested the Fuel Pump Relay and it was clicking but will look into more info or possibly replacing it.

    Clearing Codes

    Can someone possibly recommend a scanner that will do both obd2 and obd1? My brother has a 97 f150 and it'd be nice to have something that will scan both. I've done a couple searches here and I saw someone recommend the one I'd bought before, that's why I bought it but as I said, it just told...

Ive tried at least 3 different obd2 scanners and also getting the adapter that hooks to the scanner then to under the hood and I can't get a link.

    Clearing Codes

    172, 214 and 542. I'm pretty sure 214 was the original code I got before we replaced the camshaft synchronizer and sensor
