I actually love the 6.0 engine for its simplicity. Had an 05 with a 03 turbo and turbo mount. My favorite problem with the 6.0 was when people would run them low on oil, and the truck would die when it came to an idle. I lost count on how many were towed to the shop because people didn't check their oil level. Put in a couple of quarts, and it would fire right up and run fantastic. I had the same guy come back 2 times on a flatbed just to have the oil topped off and send him on his way. Yes, I did see my share of the bad side of the 6.0 powerstroke.
Haven’t ran across that yet but I’m sure it’s a matter of time. I love what my 6.0s and 7.3 trucks will do but gosh damn the 6.0s have been giving me hell lately.
The newer generation powerstroke, the more money it's going to cost in repairs. That's just leaving the 6.4 out of the subject. The newer generations are also so much more comfortable and quite than the first.
I lost my pedal yesterday and stopped. Truck was idling fine. Shut it off and now it wont start. Its a 99 7.3 manual. Any ideas? Would this sequence you did be the same for my 7.3?
I’m having the same issue, I unplugged the EBP light went away , pedal returned BUT, I drove it 2 blocks unplugged and wrench came back and I lost the pedal. Back to the drawing board, please help
The reason it came back on is the computer realized it's unplugged. Unplugging it only good for figuring out which sensor it is. The computer will pick up certain sensors that are unplugged and go back into limp mode. You can try plugging the sensor in starting the truck and unplugging the sensor but you'll probably only get a few more blocks before the computer goes back into limp mode.

This might be dumb question but that wouldn’t cause no pre clatter?

On a 7.3 most likely the crank sensor went bad.
