    Towing

    That's great mileage, and lot's of power. I don't think I've ever seen better then 8 MPG. I have to make sure that the engine is staying cool I think first.

    Help Needed Truck keeps dying

    Did they give you the code like P1211 ?. A lot of times it's not what the code is that get's set.

    TC problem? Tranny? Fuel filter?

    Trans filter in the pan if it came loose would also cause that.

    Help Needed F250 super duty just dies and can't figure out what's wrong

    Sounds like the ICP sensor. The truck needs to have a scanner on it. Check ICP, IPR, RPM, Fuel PW, and EGR. That's were I would start there are a lot more values to check. I think you'll find the answer with these 5. Any more problems just let me know what the specs were.

    2005 6.0 No Oil Pressure on Start and Dies Immediately

    Sounds like the high pressure fitting on the back of the high pressure oil pump. If it hasn't already been replaced. If it has they need to dead head. (block of high pressure oil from left and right then read the pressures) Could be injectors, oil log, or 8 different o-rings. Hope that helps.

    Truck cuts out

    Does the RPMS of the truck go up and down 300 RPMS when your start it. Sounds like rm rm rm. Like if you were pushing the fuel pedal on and off fast.

    Truck cuts out

    The PCM is inside drivers front. The IDM you need to take the back side of the wheel well half way out and you"ll see it. It doesn't sound like a IDM. The bubbles you saw in the drain pan is just from being drained. The oil test is done with the truck running, and no need know because you have...

    Truck cuts out

    Are there any codes ? If you can check before you take the chip out. You said it cuts out not a surge (rm rm rm) They have a cool oil test if you ever think your oil is breaking down. Let the truck get warm. Then in park run it up to 3000 RPMs for 3 minutes. Turn the truck off and pull the oil...

    Holy moley turbo/compressor surge!

    I agree Ford recalled all them trucks for the new a great CPS sensor they look cheep. They for sure drop the price from I think a 100 to 40. I still have a few old style ones and no problems. My recall they just gave me the sensor I didn't want it put in. It's behind the seat.

    2003 6.0 problems

    The head gasket test is simple. You need to fix all coolant leaks first (EGR cooler) Then the little coolant hose that runs to the coolant bottle (drivers side by the firewall) install a gauge we always used a oil pressure gauge. Run the truck hard, and underload. The gauge shouln't ever get...

    Holy moley turbo/compressor surge!

    I just rememberd they had a Ford recall on the sensor. I had mine done last year. It wouldn't hurt to take the VIN number to Ford and see if there is any open recalls on the truck. V-ref is a 5 volt ref back to the PCM. Off the top of my head there is 5 sensors that have it. Cam is the big one...

    Engine running crappy

    Anything is possible but never seen low batts hurt a FICM. The EGR is simple to try and free just disconnect the wire on top it will stay closed. I have seen lot's of intermittent problems with EGR's and it will do what you are saying is going on. For your low batts you need to load test them...

    Holy moley turbo/compressor surge!

    That was a short in what they call V-ref. I would agree the Cam sensor. At the dealer it shouldn't cost more then $40 for the sensor. A 10 mm wrench or socket passenger side front. The only thing else I can think of is the EBP sensor. That can be disconnected and the truck will go into fault mode.

    Engine running crappy

    It sounds like a intermittent EGR sticking I've seen lot's of them a simple thing to do is to disconnect the wiring at the EGR the light will come on but will go into fault mode drive it if the truck never has a problem again it's the EGR valve and you don't need it until it's time for emissions...

    FYI Stolen Truck

    I'm in Phx A/Z they steal them all the time. There run down to the border to smuggle people and dope in the trucks. My buddies was taken last month. They found it 20 miles to the border hidden in trees. Full of fuel and extra fuel in the cab. PCM and starter relays taken out so no one steals the...

    2003 6.0 problems

    It sounds like just the EGR cooler there is no way that I know of to check head gaskets with a bad EGR cooler. A lot of EGR cooler problems on early models is do to a pluged oil cooler and again you can't check that until the truck is running. Looking at a scanner coolant temp and oil temp...

    2002 7.3 Coolant Temp runs hot with load

    Thanks again my old truck with the STD ran the best pulling at 3300 RPM never would hit the govener. I can never get 3000 rpm pulling down into 2nd. Do you think I should slow down untill I can get 1st. I don't know the shift points but I thought of the truck overworking in a higher gear and...

    2002 7.3 Coolant Temp runs hot with load

    I bought this truck 1 1/2 years ago. It had a coolant leak at the water pump so I replaced the t-stat also Ford parts. I have pulled my trailer on small grades in A/Z back and fourth to the sand dunes no problems. I went to Cal last year with the family. The toyhauler empty (-2500 pounds) there...
