    Turbo problems?

    Yesterday my truck have no power like the turbo was not working at all so I parked the truck and shut it off and restarted. The truck ran fine after this. Any way I checked the codes and it gave me a low boost code. I decided to reprogram to stock in case I need to take to dealership and...

    2nd belt 14000 miles 06 6.0

    Ford charged me $100 labor. That was just a couple of weeks ago. The belt was $60 I think.

    2nd belt 14000 miles 06 6.0

    I had to replace mine at 62000 miles due to terrible squealing. Ford guy said that 60000 miles was normal life.

    new disel fuel

    I keep hearing terrible rumors about the new fuel and how it wears out injectors on earlier model trucks like my 04. What is the deal? The Ford mechanic told me to run a diesel clean in every tank. Any thoughts on this?

    belt

    I noticed a chattering noise coming from the front of my truck a couple of weeks ago. It continued to get worse so I took it to a mechanic that changed my alternator and he said my belt was bad. I only have 60,000 miles on my truck. Doesn't that seem early to have a belt worn out. I thought...

    electrical system

    I live in south GA so we don't really get cold snaps, but it did get cooler(if you call hi 80's and low 60's cooler). I don't tow anything or have a fancy amp or sound system but I bought the truck used last year with 42,000 miles on it. I have no idea what the previous owner did because I...

    electrical system

    Had to get a new alternator and went ahead and got 2 new batteries. Set me back $460 but maybe I won't have any more problems. It seems early for my truck to have a bad alternator to me but I don't know.

    electrical system

    No, I haven't checked it. Forgive me but how would I go about doing that without taking it somewhere?

    electrical system

    Batteries look good on the truck, I wonder what could be the problem. As soon as I get at about 1400 rpms the battery light comes on.
