ch613 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I have a 1997 ch613 with an E7 454 that has developed a hiccup. It acts as if it stops running for just a fraction of a second and then continues to run, it does this with cruise on or off while cruising at road speed. Sometimes this creates a pretty good jerk and other times this happens much smoother, this can happen several times a day or just once or twice. Any ideas??

Any ideas??Have it hold its breath and hang upside down for 30 seconds...usually works for me...Anyway, maybe try taking that 9-pin plug apart (unscrew approx. 1/4 turn and pull apart) on the back side of the injection pump and blow it out good with an air gun and reconnect.

ch613 Posted May 2, 2010 Author Share Posted May 2, 2010 Thanks for the info, I will try clearing the plug and see what happens, what is this plug called?? It keeps getting progressively worst so I'm thinking it is fuel related, at first I was thinking a sensor or something electrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ch613 Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) It is simply the main fuel pump plug !When you have this apart look at it head on and see if there are any signs of heat, brown looking areas on any of the plastic pin bosses If you find any that look discolored I would go to the dealer and have it repined!So far so good, I took the plug apart and blew it out, checked the pins and three are starting to discolor but the bosses looked OK. I'm not sure what fixed my problem sense I replaced the timing sensor at the same time as the wires were bare rite where they meet the sensor. I did wiggle the wires around and the motor never missed a beat so I don't think it was the sensor.Thanks for the everyone.

One little bad electrical connection can do a good job of screwin things up can't it? Quote Ever wonder how a blind person knows when to stop wiping?
