???? Not sure what your asking? I cleared all the codes with the hand held and started engine and let idle after installing the crank sensor...

Crank sensor varrence must be set/ programmed when replaced. It must be done with a scan tool (not a code reader).

Did another fuel pressure test and with the key on and the engine OFF ive got 50-52 lbs but with the engine running its about 47 lbs. What do you think??
47 with engine idling is not bad. 50-52, key on, engine off is questionable. However, if you hadn't done the CKP variation learn procedure like MDTAHOE says, the PCM is compensating for the reference period errors it learned of the old CKP sensor. Depending on the magnitude of errors, it can cause drivability problems or declare misfires that aren't there.

09,
What does the 02 sensor do? or to ask another question, what symptoms to look for when the sensors are getting worn out or lazy. My mechanic suggest we look at these since my truck has 134, 000 miles. Silverado 2003 4.8 L.
I'm the guy that put on the Bilstein 5100's as you recommended.
I am on vacation and using a sisters laptop.
Please send me your response to my email address.
