Thanks for the video.
@APDTY no i didnt. should i do that?
ok thank you
I recently replaced my IMRC while I had my intake off. Now that I’m putting
it all back together, I can’t figure out where the 2nd hose (the one on the
bottom) on the IMRC goes. I get that the top one goes up into the nipple on
the manifold. Can’t find where the other one goes.
i got a 3.0, 2004 and i dont see the valve anywhere is it different on my
truck?
@APDTY – the check engine is not ‘on’ so maybe all is good. I really won’t
know until I drive it more as it has been mostly sitting for the last 4
years with occasional start-ups to keep the battery alive. I’m in the
process of doing anything I can to get it running good. I will check out
the vaccum hoses. I’m still learning where everything is and these type
videos are very helpful. Thanks!
The small hose that connects to the manifold was messed up so i replaced
it, but my check engine light still on. the only code it had thrown was the
imrc code. can it be messed up
I found that a broken vacuum line was causing my p2004 code. Thanks Guys!
thanks 4 the video it was the bottom hose like this video easy fix !!!!
I have a 2006 Focus that has this same issue…do you have this in stock if
so what do they run? THANKS!!
Where does that bottom vacuum line of the IMRC travel to?
@chinliando Did you clear out the codes after repairing the vacuum line?
how wouldyou change this on a 01 f150 4.2?
i got a 3.0 2004 and i dont see it anywhere?
does an older 96 ranger use this part? I have a rough idle
One of the lines would go to a vacuum source (Intake manifold) the other
line will go to the IMRC Actuator itself. I believe the actuator is on the
backside of the intake manifold near the firewall.
The vehicle you are working on should have a vacuum line diagram on the
“Catalyst” sticker somewhere under the hood. That diagram should help you
figure out where each hose goes.
Thankyou!
2005 Ford Focus ZX3, same code p2004, Had a crack in one of the lines,
Great help.
@chinliando The code will not automatically clear after you fix the
problem, because it is stored in the memory of the PCM as a “History Code”
you need to clear the PCM either by disconnecting the battery for a few
minutes, or using a scan tool to clear the codes.
good info
@iseecheese Actually on the 3.0 ranger, there is not an IMRC system.
good video excuse me sr. I have a cuestione my manifold truck it turne RED
like fire do you know why it is happening? my truck is a ford ranger 1994
2.3 thank you and God bless you
I have replaced about all of 3 of these things on Ranger and Focus, these
things rarely go bad
Sorry about that, I fixed the link in the description and it should bring
you to the part now.
@chitownchill The older rangers do not have this part, if yours has a rough
idle, I would check for a vacuum leak, they are very common on Fords and
will cause a rough idle. Is your check engine light on? Thanks!
When the manifold is glowing, one of the most common reasons is a timing
issue. The first thing I would check is that the Timing Belt timing is set
properly.
@chitownchill If it’s been sitting, it might just need to be driven hard
for a bit, A fresh tank of fuel and a good flogging can actually do wonders
for a vehicle 🙂
@APDTY that explains it, i guess i had it tested and it came out as 2 dead
injectors- any advice? i know i could have the shop do it for $600ish,
replacing the whole set with a set of gaskets and seals.
great video, thanks.
Does anyone know the part number for the IMRC? I cannot find the part to
order of your website.
i got a 3.0, 2004 and i dont see the valve anywhere is it different on my
truck?

Thanks for the video! My lower hose had a crack in it. Autozone was kind
enough to give me a free hose too
I have a 05 f150 and does everything that ranger does! Beside the check
engine light coming on and off . I was wondering how much that part cost
and how to replace it.? Is it the same like that ranger???
Any generic vacuum line of the correct inner diameter should work.
thanck you sr. I realy appreciate your help God Bless you
what is the techical name for these hoses? I am having a hard time finding
them. Is this just a general type of hose or is there something specific?
