2004 6.0 boost problem
 

ok the dealer working on my truck said today that my nipple that my boost line hooks on to on the intake is badly clogged and needing a thorough cleaning.would this cause no boost conditions and a p2262 code.thanks in advance.

oh i meant to say the boost line on map sensor running to the nipple.thats the part thats clogged the nipple in intake

it could

so would it be a good idea to let him clean intake and all that stuff.cause weve already cleaned turbo replace egr valve and map and hose.but now he noticed the nipple was clogged and possibly the intake thanks

i would clean it

ok guys this is the update my mechanic that cleaned the nipple on the boost sensor he cleaned that and cleaned turbo again and put it all back togethor and now it is very hard to start and will barely run and the valves are hitting hard and sounds rough any ideas.thanks in advance

he did say he sprayed brake cleaner in the intake where the nipple goes and he also blowed it out with air didnt know if that could hurt anything

hard starting would have to be a fuel issue. these 6.0 are nothing but trouble i would sell it and buy another cummins or put a 12v in it.

also i just found out that last time he had it he welded the egr valve shut he just ordered a new but he paying for it since he welded it he said would this cause that but ive actually drove it since then.

would a welded egr valve cause rough running issues thanks

Make sure after the EGR is replaced that the filter screen on top of the fuel pump is cleaned. This is a common problem for injector and EGR failure that Ford will never tell you about.

ok thanks
