    6.0 running rough, no throttle, no hot start

    Quite low unless the fitting was not square to the block and the o ring blew out

    6.0 running rough, no throttle, no hot start

    If it is an injector o ring, only that or those injectors that got nicked will have a miss. If its not been done you cant go wrong changing the stc fitting as it WILL fail at some point

    6.0 running rough, no throttle, no hot start

    The reason they used a swivel fitting is that the fitting has to be square to the oil passage into the block so it doesn't spit out that o ring. When you pull the pump and install the new fitting it is imperative you get it square or it will blow out the o ring.

    6.0 running rough, no throttle, no hot start

    Its just a swivel fitting with an o ring. Eventually they all fail. Thats why Ford sells the updated Fitting. I belive it was factory on the 06 or 07 models

    6.0 running rough, no throttle, no hot start

    The reason it smooths out at 2k is the pimp is spinning fast enough to overcome the loss due to the leak

    6.0 running rough, no throttle, no hot start

    No hot start and running rough is loss of hp oil. Snap to connect or STC fitting on the HPOP i belive is where you will find your leak. There is an updated solid T ORB fitting you can get from Ford Could also be that you nicked the oil o ring on top of an injector putting the rail back on. Its...

    HPOP questions

    Id say the IPR is the most likely culprit but without having any monitoring system on the truck its hard to say. You need to know what your Injection Control pressure (ICP) is when cranking

    2004 6.0 not starting

    Have you tried unhooking your tuner? It may have screwed up on you If that doesnt work i would suspect the FICM The FICM boosts voltage at the injectors from 12v to 48v so if it is screwed up and not putting out the proper voltage it will never start The ficm on my 05 has quit twice. When...

    Question Top speed

    on older models with 6.0 (mine is an 05) the limiter could be bypassed by holding the key in the start position. cuts out all but the tach and gives it a kick in the pants for as long as you hold the key!!! the starter will not engage with the truck running. this will set a code saying...
