Hey all, I'm having a head scratching moment. I just replaced the intake manifold, lower manifold, and valve cover gaskets due to a heavy coolant leak (head gasket was ruled out)
Now after getting everything back together, it starts but dies soon after. If I give it throttle, it'll run rough and blow out white smoke (not as much as before changing gaskets), but will cut out and die.
I've tried to start a thread in the Urgent help needed section, but haven't had any replies. http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=158805
The first issue was the fuel pressure regulator wasn't properly seated and I had to pop it back in place.
I have a check engine light, but it's not throwing any codes. I just have 4 incomplete codes.
At this point, any thing is helpful. Otherwise, I'm just going to have to tear it back down looking for what I missed.
Thanks.
