I have an 04 6.0 F250, i'm wondering if anyone has experienced a strange backfiring sound when you lay off the throttle or shut off the cruise, when running hard for short distances, or when towing a trailer. It almost sounds like a mini jake brake, but lasts only a second or two.. Thanks.

You are hearing what is known as a "Turbo Fart". Its harmless.
