How bad is it?

[dsprint2000]

Total noob... 2003 f350 4x4 CC. Towing loaded 3-horse last night. Loss of power and note that if I let it fall to idle, oil pressure drops to ZERO. Hard starting last night as well. Thought also heard like a 'shhhhhh' sound sometimes from passenger side. Limped it to a friends place.....

Zero oil psi sounds like the LPOP system has issues. Could be a failing LPOP. Stuck open anti-drain valve under oil filter.

What brand name oil filter are you running? Have you checked for codes?


Here is a trouble shoot guide.

Troubleshooting a No-Start condition

Sometimes, an HPOP (high pressure oil pump) failure can be sufficient enough to cause your symptoms and to cause the oil gauge (low pressure oil) to not register a pressure.

Yea...... got it to the shop and just talking to them they mentioned HPOP and something about a blown off boot or hose......

Thanks!

Diagnosis - it's the HPOP. Gonna have them do the EGR delete as well while they are in there.
