    FICM or What?

    Well the stalling out issue could be a number of things including the ficm. They probably pulled a p0611 and im sure they are on the right track with that. We are seeing alot of ficm failures this winter mostly due to the latest injector heat strategy calibration. Most of them made it through...

    4th Turbo on X

    Well when you say 4th turbo are they replacing the turbo or center housing? Basically what I usually see with sticking vanes is the chra(center housing rotating assembly) rusts and pitts on the unison ring side. Usually it is caused from not being driven often enough/frequently enough. The new...

    Glow plug life expectancy??

    Well to help with this thread-its not the glow plugs that are the issue,in fact it is the injectors and the spool valves in the injectors sticking. The inductive heat strategy WILL definately improve your concern. Typical glowplug life is over 100k and we recommend changing them at this...

    New to fords with erratic idle

    I agree w/rooster. The 03's and Early 04's have the icp in the rear of the engine in the hpop cover. They love to leak and cause crazy idle's. Get on your creeper w/a flashlight and point it up above the trans bellhousing by the top of the Y-pipe. Youll be able to see the sensor and the chrome...

    how to clean injector ?

    Well reading over that I should mention that by them not being plugged I mean on the fuel side. The problem in a case I described would be on the high pressure oil side- thats why I said change the oil.

    how to clean injector ?

    Im not sure of exactly what your concern is? Is it a cold start,runs rough and no power until warmed up issue. I would guess that would be the case being how they are going off of the faint sound. What happens is the injectors are not plugged or even dirty for that matter so cleaning them wont...

    HELP!! 7.3l running rough/no power

    If it was cold out that is normal-to an extent. The ebpv is designed to "shut when on cruise or coast in cold weather). It is strictly for cold weather and to increase cabin/cooant heating times. When you hard accel you should hear her give up and act normal but rest assure the is normal for...

    BLUE SMOKE AND LOWEND TORQUE

    Well are you still losing coolant? Im sure they rplcd the egr for egr codes and Ill be honest,if you werent complaining of losing coolant along with the smoking concern which they would relate as a driveability concern they would address it as a driveability concern(I.E. pull egr codes and put a...

    HPOP is leaking bad

    I have pondered that myself But from ford it is not serviceable(If it were mine I would find a high quality O-ring to replace it). Problem is the pump must be removed to access it. I have replaced many of pumps for this and believe me I hate to look a customer in the face and explain it as such...

    SES code

    What kind of scanner are you pulling the code with? I ask because usually 1247's and 1248's and accompanied with other driveabilty codes and or concerns and im thinking its something that only the factory computers can look at. Anything involing a loss of power or running rough will throw these...

    Injector Drive Module (IDM) Trouble

    Wow dude youre barking up the wrong tree. A p1210 is icp above expected level-has nothing to do with the idm. If you pulled a 1210 I imagine you have a half ass descent scanner? Will it datalog? If it will you want .17-.23 volts icp key on engine off. If you have no way to check this and you can...

    Head Gasket

    Wow you really know what youre talking about. How about the vanes of the turbo on a 6.0 smart guy(VGT),they get rusted or coked and bind up or stick-and I said sounds like that (he's over boosting). I think I might know what im talking about being a ford master diesel tech?

    Cold Start=No Start

    Head Gasket

    okay heard it and yes its okay with mods.You would never hear a stock 7.3 sound like that but its just boost coming back through the intake, Its notorious for a 6.0 with a sticking turbo but if youre 7.3 is modded up then thats the cause.

    Head Gasket

    So I re-read youre concern, How much boost are you making?Are you lacking power? Is this noise recent or has it arose from any mods? Im not yanking your chain, I work on these things everyday and I would like 2 help.
