Hi, has anybody got any solutions for my RRC?.
first problem is hot starting. Starts first pop when cold but it once she’s hot, reluctantly starts after 5-10 seconds of cranking. I’ve read elsewhere that it could be the crank position sensor. Is this a correct diagnosis? Or fuel pressure? Ignition module
Second problem is rather more in depth. Once running, idles fine, but upon acceleration she sort of hesitates, not misfires or popping, and once cruising, she continues to hesitate. The engine’s not cutting out completely, just this sort of on-off sort of thing. When you put your foot up it, away she goes, but once back to cruising, the hesitation returns.
My first simple task will be to change the fuel filter....

Anyone have similar symptoms?

 

Crank sensor and/or damaged tabs on the reluctor ring is a good place to start. I'd check the tabs first by removing the bell housing inspection plate (half moon shaped plate right behind the oil pan) and visually inspect the tabs.

My truck ate a starter (long story) and I checked the flex plate. Here is what your starter ring and reluctors should look like. Ignore my long boring diatribe. Probably best to view on mute.
