Driving to work on the highway, doing 65mph with cruise control on and turbo starts to spool nothing to about 5 and decreases and keeps doing it. There was no incline and has never done it before so i slowed down to stop it from doing it. Make it off highway and have loss of power and turbo huffing and puffing like mad. And even time i give a little pedal turbo huffs and puffs when i let off... Any suggestions??

Hey buddy I recently had my turbo rebuilt and they said that there was a recall on the "turbo sensor" or something like that. I had the same exact problem. I cant really remember. Ask one of the ford mechanics there they should know right away. Recently there having guys come in for that I was one of six that day ill make a call and try to find out the exact name.

 

Alright thanks man, they told me that the tec thinks the turbo is sticking and they are taking it apart.

 

The turbo vanes stick in these trucks a lot. Usually happens from letting them idle excessively and driving like a grandma.

 

That helps a lot, when going to work I take my time barely getting on the little guy. And heading home is about same way cause most the time I'm tired as hell.. Thanks for the help i going to start getting on it. When I get on that pedal should it be all the time or here and there?
