Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - After Start Up Rough Idle And Power Lag?

Have a 2004 f250 that is having issues. Once the truck is started the idle goes from normal to loud almost sounds like its going to stall. A few weeks back the same happened when i was on a red light. It choked almost to where it was going to die. I accelerated when light turned green and would not move at all. I had to literally use full throttle to get out the road at about 5 mph. I pulled in to a gas station and fueled up as i had a quarter of diesel left and it stopped the rough idle and power starvation once i started the truck up again. It sees like this time its getting more persistent... FML AND THESE 6.0 problems

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 F350 - Lack Of Power While Accelerating / Stall And No Start

I have a 2004 f350 with a 03 bullet proofed motor. The truck did not have any power and the turbo wouldn't support until I put a new vgt solenoid in and it ran great for about 3 miles... Stalled doing 65 kinda lacked power while accelerating but got up to speed quick. I pulled over and no start. It is running error code kam on pcm from disconnecting batteries but could this cause the stall and no start? Or should I be looking into icp sensor?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 F250 Losing Power Then Stalled Out And Wouldn't Start

this morning I started my 2004 f250 drove a mile and filled up my truck. Then drove another mile and my truck acted like it was running out of fuel. It was loosing power then stalled out and wouldn't start. About five hours later I tried to start it again and nothing. about five hours after that I tried it again and it started up and drove fine.

My thought was fuel filter or the water trap. I haven't had a chance to open the filters up and check them yet. Today while I was at work I got on here to see if I could figure out what was wrong with it. all I could think of was maybe the HPOP went out or the ICP sensor. Could one of these be the problem or was I right with my original thinking and it's just a fuel filter? First thing in the morning I'm going to pull the filters and replace them.

Could there be something else wrong with my truck that I don't know about? Like I said I filled up the fuel tank then it lost power within a mile and stalled out and wouldn't start back up. Then about 10 hours later it fires up and acts like nothing happened.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - At Start Up No Acceleration?

First of all, I have 2004 f-350 92K miles with a stock 6.0 - EGR deletes and new oil cooler is the only updates.

Two weeks ago I had an issue pop up. When I tried to start from a dead stop there was no acceleration, it would idle ok but when i pressed on the peddle NOTHING! I called the local diesel guru, he recommended I change the fuel filters. After I did this there was a tremendous improvement in performance.

After a few days of normal driving, I noticed a subtle reduction in throttle response. Today I noticed a slight lag when accelerating which lasted about 3 miles until there is once again no acceleration. It will start normally and idle is a little rough, but will not accelerate even in park the engine is extremely slow to accelerate.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - Won't Start Just Turn Over?

2004 Excursion, won't start, just turns over. Pulled the cap off the fuel filter and it's filling fast so seems to be getting fuel. FICM replaced with a unit from Ed a year ago, along with a high output alternator, tests at 49 volts at key on, 48.5 cranking.

Truck started up fine last night, went for a drive with the family through Christmas lights. It has been running very rough at start and then smooths out after a few seconds. Went to start it up today and it just turns over, never fires. Unplugged the ICP on the passenger side valve cover and no improvement.

Pulled codes and had P0269, P0672, and P0676. Looks like a couple flow plug codes an injector contribution code.

What else can I check before pulling the valve covers?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - Crank But Won't Start?

ok, so after all the work done (headgaskets, head bolts, egr valve, ipr valve, egr cooler, oil cooler, blue spring kit, new ficm injector harness connectors), this is what I'm left with on start up. I am now getting no SYNC -0

I had ficm sync before i changed the connectors on the injector harness (last thing i did besides blue spring kit). Has this motor turn this way? And my glow plug light now comes on during and post crank along with a weird fuel light with 3 teardrops I've never seen before. I need to check this out.

48.0 ficm KOEO, 48.3 crank
IPC 3 KOEO, 1100 crank
IPR 14.1 KOEO, 46 crank
IPC volt .23 KOEO, 1.23 crank

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - Oil Priming Before Start Up

Getting ready to fire this late '04 6 liter up tomorrow. Did HG and Studs,,etc.. My question is Oil Priming before start up, I saw the video on youtube about pulling a relay for the ficm, my owners manual only talks about a fuse for the ficm and its behind a panel on the dash. Did Ford wire these trucks differently?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - Knock During Start Up

My 2004 powerstroke recently started making a loud knock during the process of starting. Will make the sound warm or cold, however I mostly hear it when the truck is warm as it cranks a little longer and about two seconds into the crank something starts knocking. After the truck starts it runs perfectly fine.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 F250 6.0 - No Start With Low ICP Psi

I have an 04 6.0. My truck was running perfect, no problems. I start my truck, it started idealing rough for a couple seconds then just died. After that it just kept cranking and no start. There are no codes, tried unplugging the ICP sensor and nothing. Checked the fuel filter and its filling up with fuel before cranking. Oil is at a good level. FICM is reading 46.5-47.5 before cranking. Checked the ICP Psi I'm only building 11psi and HPOP was replaced in October.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - No Hot Restart / Now No Start

04 Excursion with 03 motor. I had been getting a no hot restart problem. Now it won't start at all.

FICM 48
rpm around 155-175
ipr goes to 77
icp jumps to 475 and drops back to 400-425

My problem started in Virginia, so I got it started cold and drove all the way home to Indiana without shutting it off. Pretty much been parked since. I've driven it 4-5 times. Now it won't start at all.

I have some LPO problem: I posted it November 2013 [URL] ....

After that I replaced LPO regulator, front cover gasket set, LPO cover (Ford tech said my gearator was fine). I don't think this problem is fixed still

We tried to do a leak down air test. Honestly couldn't hear much of a difference with IPR on vs off. Pulled IPR, found the screen in tact but the plastic pieces that hold it on were all rotted away and broken. I replaced with a brand new IPR to be safe.

I'm not real sure what to look into next. Right now I have both valve covers off and tried to look for a HPO leak in valve covers while cranking. I don't see any oil anywhere coming into the valve train. Shouldn't there be LPO somewhere?

My oil is old now but it was T6 and brand new when this problem first occured. Motorcraft filter but the cap is river city diesel billet cap [URL] ....

Could it be as simple as the oil screen to the HPOP or the check ball in the pump? Can the LPO gauge dropping be related to the no start now? Are there any techs that live in Southern Indiana and want to make some side cash? Last thing I want to do is bring this to the local shop or even worse the dealer. Last time the dealer said they wouldn't touch it because the tuner and EGR delete and the local shop left it sitting for a month and hadn't even touched it.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 F250 Will Not Start At All

My husband and I purchased a 2004 f250 king ranch 6.0L... We love the truck, despite the headaches. We took it to a dealership and spent just under $5k in parts, drove it for a month (everything going great) until we shut it off to bs w a friend and it won't turn back on. It's been sitting for 4 days and nothing. Cranks and cranks, but won't actually start. We are pretty handy with gas trucks, but this diesel is out of our element- we are getting better though haha!

We looked on here and saw that the no start could be bc of the FICM - swapped it out- not the issue.
Now the codes being thrown are P2291 & P2285 (or so my husband says)
We are thinking if we replace the ICP and that fixes it, we won't need to do the HPOP. Or do we need to do it as well? Are we on the right track?
When we shut it off, it didn't have any lights on, no gauge fluctuations, or any "red flags". This is why we are stumped!!

(Ford dealership fixes: 2 batteries, new starter, new tank cap, new oil cooler, maybe a few others- receipts not infront of me).

Like I mentioned, we've already dropped more money than we have into this truck and now it's taking more- we love the truck and once it's fixed we will "have a new truck" it just sucks bc my husband works afternoons and I'm a stay at home mom with a 14mo and this is our only vehicle.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - No Oil Pressure At Start Up

I have a 2004 late model 6.0. My son was driving it and parked it in the road told him move it and it wouldn't start. I got it to start and it ran for about 10 seconds. I pushed it in the drive way and left it over night. In the morning there was oil on the driveway. I found that there was the wrong oil filter put in and there is no oil pressure at start up and no oil entering the filter housing. Where to start would be great. I am going to get a Scangauge II to get more information. Could be the ICP?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - Crank But No Start?

Just installed lots of new parts on this late 04 6 liter HPOP, Stand pipes, nipple cup orings, head gaskets. and now she wont go. Just cranks. Doing an air test now, should I be able to hear anything form the oil fill tube? It builds oil pressure just not right away, I did have an icp code. but has gone away as of now (p2285). What's consider a long crank time?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 6.0 - No Start - HPO Oil Leak?

I'm working on an early 2004 6.0 currently. The guy was driving down the road when it cut back to nothing but an idle and now is a no start. In the four months it's been dead, they've been able to tell him fuel pressure is good and they found to broke wires. So watching numbers while cranking on it, ficm says yes, voltage is at 48, Icp desired was over 1600, Icp actual is just cresting 550-600 where the engine is just about to start. So that tells me it has a hpo oil leak. I pulled the oil filter and held down the valve and had someone crank to test low pressure just in case. So I pulled the passenger side valve cover and it's an 04 so no standpipe, it's a high pressure line, I capped the line off and cranked watching numbers and Icp actual climbed over 900 and she fired and ran, on the driver side of course. So this being an early 04 with no dummy plug or standpipe, the only hpo oil leaks left are the oil rail nipple o rings and the top injector o rings correct?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 F250 V8 - Hard Start / Rough Idle / Shaking - No Power When Cold

I'm new to diesels. I just bought a 2004 F250 with the 6.0 V8. I have the high and low circuit, contribution codes on cylinders 4 and 8. I've only had the truck for a few days but I've been reading a ton. The symptoms are hard start, rough idle/shaking, no power when cold. When it heats up and I'm over 2000 RPM it seems to be just fine. Even when hot and below 2000 RPM it does ok. I've check the FICM. It reads 48V with key on and 48V running. My plan is to do the following:

Change the Fuel Filters
Change the oil filter
Change Air Filter
Change oil with 5-W30 synth and I have both Hot Shot/Rev-X

If that doesn't work, I'll replace the two injectors. How does that sound.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 - Hard Start And Skipping

I bought my 04 6.0 from my parents a few years back and had it gone through as soon as I bought it. I got it studded, a new hpop, new oil cooler, 8 new Alliant injectors, and an sct livewire. A few months later my oil temp kept getting high and eventually it caused an injector to go out. Took it back to the guy who originally did the work and he warrantied it.

He said the oil cooler got clogged up on the coolant side. Replaced an injector and the oil cooler and it ran for another couple months before doing the same thing again. Had the oil cooler and injector replaced again and it ran fine until the number 7 injector went out and I had to replace it myself since the guy who was doing the work on my truck decided to pack up his shop and leave basically overnight.

When I got under the valve cover I noticed that the number 7 injector pigtail was different colors than the other injectors so I'm not sure what kind of work had been done to it after all, if he'd been mixing injectors or what, all I know is what he told me he had done. The truck currently has 157k on it. whenever I go to start it my injection oil pressure spikes to anywhere from 1600-1800 and the truck attempts to run but then the truck falls on it's face and the injection pressure will not get above 350-400 for about 10 to 20 seconds of cranking.

Then the oil pressure hand on my dash moves and the injection pressure goes up again and the truck cranks. After the truck is running it has a miss that most of the time goes away as the truck warms up. Im starting to believe that maybe the hoop is going out again but I'm unsure. I'm a heavy diesel mechanic so the huei injection system isn't my forte, but I do have access to just about any tool needed.
