I have a 2006 F350 6.0 Diesel with 125,000 miles.
Husband done with issues!!!!! Need help to get him going to fix it!


1st issue....When accelerating the fan comes on and it sounds like a jet engine taking off. Let off and it goes away! It acts like it does when you're towing something and put it under a load but you're not towing anything?

2nd issue...when towing a month ago hit a hill and totally lost power it was down to 25-30 miles an hour with it floored. Tranny gauge got up to about 3/4 but never any further. Let off pedal to try and get new gear and did not help, was like it was in a limp mode but never threw the wrench up. Finally got to top of hill and she cruised down other side just fine. No loss of power tranny back to normal. Then towed over weekend on flat land and tranny gauge went almost to overheat. Didn't seem to have power issue.


Since 1st tow issue it had 8 new injectors installed but hasn't seemed to change much. Fan issue was there before injectors and new injectors only helped only with the cutting out it would do when cold and when driving in overdrive.


Just looking for direction to go and if any of these issues can be related to each other. Computer issue? Relays? Any Ideas? Yes I know this is a long shot but maybe someone else has had issues. Have read several other feeds but haven't really got a answer!

 

You really need a scan Guage 2 torque app for your android phone and Bluetooth adaptor. Something to read the vitals of the truck. Either you or him then read thru the tech folder it is a wealth of information. The guys here are great but they need stats to go on.

 

A egr valve sticking or gummed up can cause a bogging issue as well
