GOOD TO HEAR All is better

And I am Glad to see that this didnt turn into another one that Had BAD EBP Reading where a New EBP didnt help

On those 2 other Cases we didnt check for exhaust plugage or stuff like that and I think thats where we got off track on those Other Trucks cause they changed EBP and didnt help they still had problems

On the other 2 I think we Jumped the Gun saw bad EBP reading and went straight for the ebp sensor

I dont think you will see that DTC again

Your MPG will go up Now But Also make shure your ECT is getting to 190*

Any ECT under 190* will have Negative affect on MPG

You should be happier with your MPG on the next tank of fuel compared to what its been getting before

Ok ive been following this post and finally got my sct datalogging up and running. I cleaned ebp sensor and tube. I did a real quick test this evening.

690 rpm
ebp-17.63

Well, in my case it did resolve the issue. As long as you've done the diagnostics as I have, and are willing to chance the $80, replace it and see. Got mine from Tousley ford.

I'm going to perform a thorough test this weekend, but my initial values are similar to yours. So if the data collected provides a high enough probability that the ebp sensor is bad, yes I'm willing to chance $80.

Also i gather from this thread that your high idle EBP value was the main factor in purchasing a new sensor correct? Thanks

I figured the EBP sensor was a good first step before yanking out the turbo for a cleaning. Not sure if I made it worse while cleaning, but at least now I can rest assured that it's new, numbers are within range, and the tube is clear. I tow a large trailer down to southern California a few times a year and don't need turbo issues while in the middle of nowhere or on an incline. I've hit the turbo hard and heavy since changing out the EBP, and even on the grade that threw the code twice on me, and I'm happy to say it hasn't returned. The real test will be when I tow again.

Do you have a part # for EBP sensor? These are my readings so I am thinking I might need to replace mine also. I got a code P0299 also going up a grade with a load.

MAP: 14.3
EBP: 14.5
EPV: 0.87

the Sensor Reading at KOEO Looked Good so that's only 1 point towards a Good Sensor

They usualy end up Bad though more Often then Not

Probably 130.00 ebp sensor so whatever if you want to try that or Troubleshoot more

International would be the Second Part# in Above said post and likely cheaper

To relieve Exhaust back pressure you would Loosen the Downpipe at turbo enough to Vent it and Rerun test while Exhaust is Vented check the sensor values at this time

Also Post V-REF value the EBP Sensor uses 5 Volts as well

I edited my post with the year but I guess I didnt do it fast enough and you didnt see it. Sorry about that. It is a 2006. I will go do the vent at the turbo and post back the numbers. Thanks for your help Benny!

Or with Stock exhaust you can lossen them bolts by the Frame to vent

Basicaly need to vent whatever easiest before CAT & Muffler

Even at this Odds are slim to have plugged exhaust but anything is possible
