Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Glow Plug Light Came On - Lost Power - No Injector Cycle

Ok yesterday while driving my truck the glow plug light came on couple times and lost power but the light would turn off and power came back. It has done this before and it was the injector harness grounding out on the engine. I replaced that last time. I checked over the knew one and did not see any chaffing on the harness.

Now this morning I go outside to start it and I can hear my fuel pump and vacuum pump but injectors wouldn't cycle. It has also done this before but I could never figure out why. Last time I tore into it checking through my wiring harness and couldn't find anything. When I put it back together it started fine.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Truck Lost Power And RPMs Dropped Only Glow Plug Light Came On

It's a 2004 6.0 excursion with about 190,000 miles. At 185,000 I pulled the motor and did new oem head gaskets, Arp head studs, bulletproof egr cooler and oil cooler system, bulletproof 48v ficm, strictly diesel regulated return, and I've been running gear heads srl tune before and after the truck was rebuilt.

Recently the truck has been acting up at random times. While running the gear head srl tune, the truck will lose power, the boost gauge on my edge insight will get stuck along with Icp psi, the water in fuel light and glow plug light will come on, and then after a few seconds it will clear itself and run fine. Last night I was on a two lane road and putting my foot into it and the truck did the same thing where it loses power, but this time the truck actually died on me while I was cruising at 60.

Same lights were on but this time the cruise control light fluttered while the truck was in the midst of dying. I tried restarting it and it took two sets of cranking before it fired and stayed running. On the way home I babied it and the truck lost power and the Rpms dropped and only the glow plug light came on. Got home and ran codes and I got camshaft and crankshaft position sensor codes and I tuned it back to stock, drove it around, and the truck ran fine, but while on a stock tune I am getting a egr valve code.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Glow Plug Change / Oil In Turbo

I'm getting ready to change the glow plugs in my dad's e99, 196k on the clock. When I pulled the air intake tubes I found some oil in the turbo:

The inlet tube also had a bunch of gunk in it too:

Does this look like it is caused by the PCVor is it a bigger issue?

Passat (B6) :: Front Tires Had A Significant Amount Of Brake Dust

I just had my 10k service and noticed my two front tires still had a significant amount of brake dust and the rear tires did not. I always have more brake dust on the front than the rear and was the case when I dropped the car off. The service guy said they rotated from front to back but that didn't happen. I was under the impression they moved front to back and vice versa. What is the standard rotation for tires at the prescribed service intervals?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2007 F350 - Check Engine Light For Glow Plug Control Module

So; I bought my 07 f350 6.0 the other day. I have a light on that sends a code for glow plug control module, but the truck starts fine, the same in cold temperatures as warm, so far nothing below 32 degrees though. I dont have the code # at the moment, but will update when i get the scanner back. Why this module is throwing a red flag?

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 1994 V6 Rough Idle And Lost Fair Amount Of Power

I have a 94 Ford Ranger 4x4 4.0 V6. It has developed a rough idle and has lost i fair amount of power. I cleaned the maf sensor and iac valve. Along with replacing an o2 sensor that was reading bad, with no improvement. The guys at O'reilly took a look and think I may be dealing with a timing issue or a warped valve. My question here is to found the culprit? I'm very inexperienced at working on vehicles and am damn intimidated by the scale of a project like timing. I should add that while traveling on the highway in high gear at low rpms, it develops a rough stutter. I can either power through it or ease off to get it to stop, but it resumes shortly after. It almost acts like an egr valve stuck open when on the highway. But that doesn't account for the rough (a consistent put, put, put...) idle.

Camry 2012+ :: Toyota LE - Significant Amount Of Fuel Consumption When Turn On Blower Fan

I have a 2012 Toyota Camry LE and whenever I turn on the blower fan, the fuel consumption increase by about 0.13 to 0.26 US gallon/hour. This is regardless of the thermostat settings, air outlet selector settings or not in the dehumidifying settings and the A/C button is at off position. There is also an increase of about 150 rpm. The only time this condition will not occur is that when the engine temperature is at 176 F which is the engine is in optimum performance. If the engine temperature is below below 170 F it will always happen. During winter most of the time the car could not reach that temperature before I reach my destination because I live in the region where cold weather is at extreme.

Subaru - Forester :: Faint Burning Smell In Cabin After Drive For A Significant Amount Of Time

I recently moved to Pittsburgh where I constantly use my parking brake from Rochester, NY where I rarely ever used it. After I've moved to Pittsburgh (7 months after I've owned this 2004 Subaru Forester). After I drive for a significant amount of time (30+ minutes) and come off the freeway and stop or even slow down, the cabin of the car has a distinct, but faint burning smell. I am wondering if this could be the parking brake rubbing just slightly and when I slow down the smell stays in the cabin or if it is possible that the brakes are smelling (or something entirely different). Keep in mind that the smell doesn't happen when I only take a short drive, which is often. And of course, no I haven't taken this into an auto mechanic yet.

Going down a steep hill tonight. Been running for 30 mins - all 100% fine. Was in 2nd gear - had selected it for engine braking. Suddenly got Engine Fault Workshop message - ABS warning light and flashing glow plug symbol.

Continued to drive fine. Definitely not limping! Came home and scanned it. First scan had ABS intermittent fault. Cleared all faults. Engine Fault warning in MFD has now go. Still drives fine only with annoying flashing light!

Phaeton :: Glow Plug Light Flashing And Car In Limp Mode

Just set off on a day out, got about 3 miles and the cars gone into limp mode (running smoothly but no power) with the glow plug light flashing. I got back to the caravan so we weren't stuck at the side of the road and tried restarting it. It starts off for about a minute before coming back on. I've noticed that revving it in neutral the revs linger for a second our so after taking my foot off as if its not recognizing that the throttle position has changed.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Glow Plug Replacement?

I have to replace the #6 glow plug. I confirmed it is bad and the harnes broke when trying to reove it with the proper tool. I ordered a new glow plug, ZD13, and a new drivers side harness.

I have never replaced a glow plug before but it seems pretty straight forward. I watched some youtube videos and did some reading.

I have read some state that you have to loosen the glow plug with a 10mm socket and then take some tubing and push it onto the glow plug to finish loosening it and prevent it from falling into the cylinder. I have read people saying it took them hours with a magnet to get the plug out of the cylinder.

If the plug is threaded and is removed from the threads how is it possible for it to fall past the threads into the cylinder?

Anything special I need to know? Anti-seize on the threads and dielectric grease on the connection? What the torque spec is?

Prius (Gen 2) :: Turned Off Car, Immediately Lost All Power

I have a 2006 prius with about 75k miles on it. It was sitting for a few months (due to loss of job exp tags no insurance) finally got financial issues squared away and when I was ready to use my prius it would not start.

Jump start got it going and it drove great. Occasionally after having the car parked it would give me problems starting. sometimes screen would read "There is a problem with the transmission "p" lock mechanism. Park your car on a flat surface, and fully parking brake" after following steps and turning car on and off a few times it would allow me to drive.

Last night I got home and parked my car, turned it off and immediately noticed that as soon as I powered off the car i lost all power. I tried starting car right away and no power at all. door locks, all lights, brake lights, everything off. this morning i tried jump starting car and nothing so I went to toyota and had the 12v battery replaced.

Unfortunately still no power however power button illuminated green when pushed but nothing else, still no power nothing but the green light. I pushed the power button once more and light illuminated orange and when i applied the break i could hear clicking noises under the hood but still no power at all... nothing. I checked all fuses and everything checked out ok. I also checked the 120amp fuse and it seems to be just fine as well.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Every Glow Plug Code At The Same Time?

Just happened to check codes today for fun and found something interesting. I've known about 2 or 3 glow plug codes since last winter but I looked today and I have a code for every single circuit. Thought that was kind of odd.... I already have 8 brand new plugs and both harnesses from Autonation sitting in the back seat, was just waiting till the fall to change them out. At 176k on the originals I decided to change them all. But now I'm thinking the GPCM may be faulty as well.
