lindernglamis Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 (edited) my turbo went bad on the way to dumont, the egr valve went bad and some of the junk that built up on it hit the blades on the turbo, basically killing it. My truck was sputtering, shooting at random black smoke out the exhaust, and no power. I ended up with $3000 in warranty work.

Randog Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) Hey JT, Is your check engine light on? I had a similar issue with my 05' 6.0 coming home from Dumont last season. :porn: Check engine light on when I started it to come home. Drove it anyways. Half way home I lost the boost. Pulled over, looked under hood, seen nothing unusual. Said It! I drivin' anyways, It's warranted. Boost came back on but light stayed on. Had my buddy scan it. EBP sensor. Can't remember where that is. Took to Ford and they tested it and said the same thing. :argue: Haven't had an issue since. :praying: Good luck mang.
