Couple of issues keep popping up with my 2013 f150.

1. Getting an error message saying "Check Fuel Fill Inlet" pretty muich constantly. Not sure how to diagnose this or what a fix is?


2. Weird one...Randomly getting a "Low oil pressure" warning and the engine completely stalls, along with the power steering. Seems to only happen at low speeds going up a steep incline. I live in Oregon and drive on old mountain roads, so this one definitely gets me spooked. I have to put the e-brake on, turn off the engine, and restart. When I restart, it acts like nothing happened.

Oil pressure switch. Common issues

Also for fuel door, try some grease or vasaline on the seal for the fuel door.

Damn. I've replace that switch twice already. Previously though, it would just randomly show low oil pressure for a half of a second at a stop light, then go back up. It would never actually cause the engine and power steering to fail like this does now.

Good idea on the grease on the fuel door. I'll try that out and see if that gets a seal.

Is it possible that you actually have low oil pressure?

I wonder if the engine is dying first and then the oil pressure light comes on.

OP, I'd recommend cleaning the throttle body and putting some BG44K in the tank.

How is everything else maintenance wise? (spark Plugs, oil level/condition etc).

I've never changed the spark plugs on it and I've got 165K miles, so maybe? Not getting any other signs of spark plug failure. Probably a good idea to go ahead and change them out though.

Recommended maintenance says to change the transmission fluid at 150k, but I wouldn't think that would have any relation to this, right?

I'll put some bg44k in for sure though.

Replace the vapor canister purge valve. It's $20 and 2 mins to change out.

165k and you've never changed the plugs? dude.

Lol. So much this. It ain't all about just changing the oil.
