Rocks in the HPOP screen? How did it get past the Pick-up in the pan? I'ts screened... coarse, but still a screen. then how did they get through the LP oil pump? If you have ever seen one apart, how a rock would get through it is beyond me???

My guess is the ICP sensor, and or IPR have more debris in them. I'd say to pull the wiring off the ICP sensor and try to start it, but the thought of it actually starting makes the hair on my neck stand up! Having just put my motor back in last weekend isn't helping this sensation either.
Thanks for writing whats wierd is that after i cleaned it out the best i could new pump and ipr it started right up and ran all day no check engine lights then dies the next day
The low pressure oil pump is a gerotor pump a virtual rock crusher. The rocks sure didn't go thru there, they had to be poured into the oilfill neck. Look at page's 40 - 41 for the lube system route. Takes awhile to load but very informative.
