Hey guys, A friend called me this morning to help with his truck. He was a few blocks from home ending a faultless 100 mile trip when the truck started to cut out. He limped home with cutting out, surging and combustion rattle. I joined in at his house and after checking codes (no codes) we...

Hey 7.3 experts/mechanics. I need some help. I have a 2000 7.3 manual 2wd. It's at 198k miles right now. I just purchased it back from a guy I sold it to, and got it back pissing fuel out of the fuel feed line to the bowl. Fixed that issue and test drove. It was consuming massive amounts of oil...

Hey guys! This is my first post and not sure if I’m posting it correctly but here goes. I have a 2006 6.0 with about 130,000 miles on it. It recently died on me and I figured it was time for head gaskets and studs. Found out later it was just the A/C compressor. Into the problem, the truck is...

97 7.3 getting on freeway then I had a loud thumping and loss of power there was air pushing out of intake(exhaust butterfly deleted already) now that I got it home that has stopped but runs rough and now I realize oil pressure gauge stays at 0 until 1700 rpm then jumps to normal. I already...

I’ve noticed recently that I’ve been having a rough idle and random high idle lately. The “high idle” problem only occurs in park and the rpm’s will jump up to 800ish and only stops whenever I touch the throttle. The rough idle issue only happens in drive when idling or coming to a stop and will...

I was driving last week when all at once there was a small thud, a loss of power and check engine light came on. I was able to limp it the last mile home. I’m no mechanic but I’ve tinkered with it and had it running fine for about 10 minutes then it lost power again. Changed fuel filter, cleaned...

2004 f350 6.0 just hit 150k miles and I did an oil change on it 3 days ago and today and yesterday having issues with it. At stop lights after it is up to temp sounds and feels like it’s going to stall out and while driving it, it seems to get up to higher rpm before wanting to shift and when...

So with new, bigger injectors(155/30’s), the truck runs great. However, when letting off the throttle and coasting, the truck will sit at about 900RPM’s until you’re almost at a complete stop, then it’ll drop to an idle. That’s not too concerning, but when you’re in overdrive and begin coasting...

I have a 2012 f350 with 190k miles, it has a 5” straight pipe, egr delete, and a h+s mini max tuner, I have a 36 gallon bulk tank in the bed that is connected to the main fuel tank that started leaking the morning I had to leave, it’s leaking somewhere around where it connects to the main tank...

Pretty much wondering the title these days. Owner of an '06, F-450, CC, Lariat, 6.0 here - 166k miles at this point. Truck was up-fitted as it came off the line with a 350 bed and dual tank option. I bought the rig back in October to pull our 5th wheel - we full-time as of Jan. All this to say...

So we've been having some troubles with my dad's '03 6.0 running terrible when it gets warmed up. It starts up great when it's cold (it was ~15* last night and she started right up without even being plugged in). Drives fine, plenty of power, only a slight shake/miss at idle. Once it's good and...

After replacing the injectors today I still have a code and am hoping someone will kindly help to guide me in the right direction by lending their experience and insights. Original Codes: and P1293 (High Side Open Bank 1) and P0273 (#5 injector circuit low) Initial Problem: Rough idle and...

Next stop is to the shop tomorrow if I can't get this thing going, i'm hoping for someone who can take a look and point me in a new direction. Initial complaint: out of the blue truck started one day w/rough idle/timing seemed to be missing, check engine light on. Complete lack of power, enough...

Hey guys, I have a very strange issue going on with my 6.0 that I need some help with. Let me start from the beginning. A few months back I started having a misfire issue with no codes so I decided to go ahead and re-seal injectors. I was in a time crunch since this is my daily driver so I...

Hello I am new on this page and finally broke down to get some help with my 2006 F-350 6.0 PowerStroke with 152,000 miles. It has head studs, EGR delete, 4 inch straight pipe, AEM Intake, and an Edge performance system and 58v ficm. Recently I did head gaskets on this truck and before starting...

I'm kind of new to power stroke. Been an experience so far. Lol. I have a od problem I can not figure out. When I first start my truck, it runs rough. It like it's running out of time. But if I let it run for a minutes, shut it off, the start it back up, its smooth and like a new truck. I notice...

Hey there! So I have a 2003 F250 that hasn't been running smoothly lately. The main issue is when I'm idling, usually in drive but occasionally while parked too, the truck seems to miss/stumble a little bit. It'll sorta bog down into the lower RPMs and act like it wants to die. So the RPMs seem...

Hi All! Been reading great stuff on this site for years. First time i speak up! Stranded after driving my 99 7.3 8 hours. I ran low on fuel pressure all of a sudden. Got towed to a Hotel. I have Wife and 3 kids with me and it's around 0 to 15 during the day. i Replaced the IPR to get pressure...

I have found lots of posts chasing around various issues with Loss of Power & Rough Idle. I have read all I can find hoping for an answer but as of yet I have found none, with the possible exception of either 2 bad injectors or a shorting Fuel Injector Harness. My Story: 2003 Excursion with a...

Hello all, I was in the market for a truck and had the choice of many clean, mid mileage perfectly running ones but for whatever reason took the risk on a repo 2008 F250 6.4. The truck is "clean" and has a clear title but has been sitting a while and has high mileage. I got a key programmed...
