1993 FORD F-150 Complaints

REPLACE FUEL PUMP AND MODULATOR, WORKED FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS, THEN VEHICLE BEGAN TO BACKFIRE, REPLACE COIL AND GAS FILTER, AGAIN THE VEHICLE BACKFIRES.

PASSENGER SIDE FACTORY EXHAUST MANIFOLD CRACKED WITHOUT WARNING, SHOWING FRACTURE BETWEEN CYLINDERS TWO AND THREE. EXHAUST SOUNDS INCREASED BOTH DURING IDLE AND AT SPEED. NOISE CAN BE DESCRIBED AS CRACKLING/POPPING AT IDLE AND A VERY LOUD HIGH-SPEED TURBULENCE (AS IF FROM A LARGE ENGAGED CLUTCH FAN) WHEN ACCELERATING. CRACKED MANIFOLD HAS TRIGGERED "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT ON LONG TRIPS (AFTER 3+ HOURS HIGHWAY DRIVING). HAVE NO REASON TO SUSPECT THE CRACKED MANIFOLD IS A REPLACEMENT. APPEARS TO HAVE CRACKED SPONTANEOUSLY AND WITHOUT EXTERNAL ASSISTANCE (I.E. DRIVING THROUGH DEEP WATER, OVER ROUGH TERRAIN). INCREASED EXHAUST NOISE AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE WAS ONLY HEARD AT WIDE-OPEN THROTTLE, AND PROGRESSED TO A FULL-TIME LEAK WITHIN 30 DAYS. OTHER STORIES SIMILAR TO THIS ONE ABOUND, I BELIEVE THIS IS AN ISSUE OF DESIGN.*AK
