Runs but wont start
I have a 04 f350 superduty with 6.0 powerstroke diesel that was running fine. It started getting a rough ride around 45-60 mph, so i changed the #8 injector and everything smooth out for about 2 months. Was running good at this point until my wife drove it to a family members house, cut it off went in and came right back out and it would not start have run battery dead twice trying to get it started. i ohmed out the glow plugs and getting good readings on all but #7, have check and getting food fuel to filter on engine but still no start. I spray a lithle ether in it and it started up and idled fine but when i cut it off again no start. Can somebody please help me?? |
Do you have the ability to see sensor values? Meaning do you have a scan tool or anything? You need to look at ICP, IPR, etc...
Without that information, we are shooting in the dark. |
In addition to cranking values for ICP and IPR, it would be helpful to also see the FICM values for MPower and LPower. Having it scanned for codes with a good quality scan tool would also be helpful.
IMO every 6.0L owner should download a phone app (Forscan is the best for reading codes and also retrieves engine parameters) along with the appropriate OBDII WiFi or Bluetooth ELM327 adapter. Lastly, 04 was a transition year. Please help us determine if it is an early one or late one. Where is the ICP sensor located? |
I have a cheap scan tool and have hooked it up but haven’t checked actual values or if it will show the values but i know its not showing any codes. The sensor is on valve cover on passwnger side right beside the module for the glow plugs. My radiator was leaking also and i have pulled it and waiting for repairs to be made on it. I hope to get it back in in the next day or so but was hoping there was something i could do while i wait |
Most cheap scan tools won;t read very many codes on your truck. I would recommend borrowing one from an auto parts store.
We really do need cranking values to help. |
