truck not getting gas?

[Heart Attack]

where is it?

 

[ZCx]

'05 & '06 are R.H. (passenger side) bout mid block. by the pan rail.

'04 i think back by the rear of the block???

 

[Heart Attack]

could someone post a pic of this sensor so i know what im looking at??

 

[ZCx]

this help????

click on the photo after ya click on the photo for a real close look

^^^ good post

 

[Heart Attack]

very cool of you thanks so much im gonna swap this out today if see if this fixes the problem

 

[Heart Attack]

just swaped out the crankshaft sensor, still a no go, im gonna swap out the camshaft sensor in the morning and see if that fixes it.

BECAREFULL!! If you set the sensor to deep with the timing gear in the wrong position , the ramp will crash the sensor!!

 

[Heart Attack]

is there a proper way to install it?

Heart Attack, in your video it looks like you needed a jump to get it started and your volt gauge looks like your voltage is still low. Start with basics and get a known good battery in to start and run the truck. Low voltage can cause havoc on proper sensor signals AND low voltage can make a fuel pump not put out proper supply pressure especially if you got an aftermarket fuel pump with your Paxton install. Give Er a try I've seen some weird stuff from batteries or loose terminals.

i needed a jump because the jmb fan i bought sucks my battery dry

 

[turbo_spirit]

Ok cool. Thought I would throw that out there as it's sometimes the smallest stupid things we overlook.

I'm surprised it took so long for someone to mention the fact he needed a jump start. I also noticed all the dash lights are on, which indicates low power. Viper trucks and the cars will not run well with a weak battery or alternator. Give Chuck Tator or a good Viper tech a call as they might be able to work you through troubleshooting procedures instead of just replacing sensors.

 

[JeffBoyette]

Our voltage regulator is internal. It is programmed to not allow the alternator to charge the battery when the battery voltage drops below 10.8v. It is put in place to prevent the owner from having to replace both a battery and an alternator when a battery fails When the alternators has to both keep the engine running, and charge the battery it will burn it up. As a result, when your battery is toast or dead and you get a jump, the engine will crank and run. The regulator sees 12.8 volts from the other car that jumped you and it will send voltage to the battery charging it or keeping it running. However if you had a bad cell in your battery and it will not maintain the voltage, and alternator will simply attempt to keep the engine running. In rare cases this reduces operating voltage and supplied amperage reduces, thereby reducing the output voltage of ignition coils, and fuel pump. This can cause the ****ty running engine.

just tried again with fresh batteries. still a no go and still acts the same

I have heard of alternators causing driveability concerns also.
