    2007 f350 6.0 no start

    Welcome to SDD dieseldoyle. Let me say that typing in ALL CAPS is considered shouting. I sold my 6.0 two years ago. So I am not up to date with this. Have you scanned your truck and what codes does it show. The codes will tell you what the truck thinks is wrong.

    SUGRING 6.0

    What oil are you using? 15W40 is what is recommended by Ford, but it is too thick. Change your oil to 5W40 and you will end your surging. WOrked great in my 2004 6.0 all year. Try it.

    Replacement Shocks

    Bilsteins WILL make a difference on ANY truck you put them on. It may not be a big difference.

    Replacement Shocks

    KYBs will be better than stock shocks. Bilstein's are even better but they cost a lot. I am guessing you don't like spending money on your truck, so go with KYBs.

    Death Wobble!!!!

    Any Ford 4 X 4 can have the Death Wobble. It is an alignment (mis-alignment) thing. Worn parts can contribute.

    RPM Concern

    QUOTE "At a lower RPM, your turbo is going to spin faster also." END QUOTE This is NOT true. Higher rpms generally mean your turbo spins FASTER.

    I have no knowledge of the DEF system. Sorry.

    You will be OK, but carry an extra fuel filter. Bio cleans out you r fuel system. It should not be too big of a problem as your truck is not too old.

    Truck surges on startup from cold, fine after running a few minutes

    Surging is what we call this. You are running 15 W40 oil I woud bet. Switch to 5 W40 oil and the surging will stop. You can run 5 W40 oil all year long without a problem. Happy Thanksgiving!

    New Owner! Howdy

    No problem, just faster tire wear.

    New Owner! Howdy

    Typical 4wd tire wear. These front axels have a "lot" of tilt out, that is the tires are farther from center at the top than the bottom. This causes this tire wear.

    Torque Converter bolts were not tightened last time. Be sure to torque them the spec. I don't know the torque spec.

    Best Oil for Engine Life

    I used Rotella 15-40in my truck. Worked great, once it was warmed up. I had the romps with this oil. Switched to 5-40 and never had a problem.

    Question Hard cold start

    Your engine needs to turn over at 500 rpms, at least, for the FICM to fire the injectors. Less than that it will not start. Yes, check your batteries. 5 years old is usually the end of a battery in a diesel.
