2004 6.0L Power Loss Black Smoke
I know there are many problems with the 6.0L but just about everyone i hear about is experiencing power loss and excessive black smoke. I have a 2004 6.0 and its really starting to get bad. I'm suspecting bad injectors but never any trouble codes for anything!! So i'm just throwing this out there to see if anybody has had these symptoms and if they had them fixed. Please help if you can. Thanks.
