hello new member here.. just wondering if anyone could help out. im working on a friend 05 f350. it has 4 codes po299, po336, po341, an p1000. it runs fine untill u give over 1/4 throttle an smokes like crazy. it has kn filter edge juice/additude 4 in exhaust egr delete. i noticed up pipe is leaking so was thinking that was po299 code but not sure about crank/cam sensor codes. it starts a little hard but its cold out. thanks
the carb cleaner wont fix the vgt, but I noticed a difference right away. I took my truck out today and the same issue. Chugging and a whole lot of black smoke. I found a guy on e-bay selling good used ones for $35
I bought one so we will see how it goes on my truck.
The k/N filter will let dust in and mess up the turbp vanes....STOCK Air filter was the best. The Edge tuner has been know to really mess up the Tranny too. A tuner that can be tuned via custom tunes would be far better choice.

Could you post a link to this ebay seller?
Keep us informed as to how well it works for you and thanks for the info!
back to the 05 f350 today i cleared the codes the low boost code did not return but the crank and cam sensor codes did. as far as i know it should not run when either of those sensors is bad, am i correct on this.
Ford Turbo Powerstroke 6.0 Turbocharger VGT solenoid - eBay (item 200568998349 end time Jan-29-11 14:35:26 PST)
The guy has sold quite a few with only one negative about them.
I will post on this thread how it works
kev78,
did you try cleaning the solenoid?
I didn't get any crank or cam codes with mine but I got MAP sensors, and 2 codes relating to the EBT
after I swapped out my buddies good solenoid no codes came back.
What kind of milage are we talking?
Turbo ever been cleaned or inspected?
Have you checked the FICM?
Forgot to ask.
what are you using to check and clear the codes?
the Edge?
If the edge, in my experience, the cam sensor code came up on my truck frequently.
I was actually stranded with the edge had it towed to a ford dealer and the edge said cam sensor. after the dealer looked for about an hour he found the edge malfunctioned,
removed the edge and the truck was fine.
Got a new replacement edge and sold it.

yes the codes come up on the edge, i havent got to unhook it yet and try without. i havent put my other scanner on it either. i also had a no start on my X, sent edge back got it fixed no problems since.
Does the problem stop after the truck is warmed up?
Does it smoke black after start up and possiblly white as you take off for the first few minutes?
Does plugging truck in change any of the problems
no problem doesnt get any better with temp, pluggin in seems to help it start, but smoke is black and whitish. but it wil not clear out rpms dont go over 2000, once it hits that speed its all over the place on the tach and smokes to beat the band.
