Interesting Issue

I have a 2006 F350 with a 6.0 Diesel. I have done the head gaskets and replaced the egr, oil pump, etc.. I am having an issue similar to stiction described in other posts, before the truck is warm. However,recently the bucking and timid throttle response before increasing RPMS is getting increasingly worse. Do we think fuel pump, water, or clogged fuel filters? going to replace the FCIM at first chance, but we are on a trip and I want to patch the issue if I can.

Input please,

Thanks,

FJ

I think you need to have some live data before you start
tossing parts at it. A set of gauges or a Scanguage II
and program in the Xguages would be my first step.

How long since you did the work? If it was recently, you might want to check that the connectors on the FICM are seated and clicked.

Did the CEL light come on?

The Banks have been in since 105k. Other work at 100k. Had truck on computer less than a month ago and have no current or stored codes. Thinking fuel pump, but dont understand warm up change if evetything is electronic.

it sounds like stiction

you maybe able to clean all Injectors spool Valves to help things

Also Used 5w40 Full Synthetic oil

you can get some additive for your Oil But I cant think of the Name of it (ITS NOT Hot Shots Secret though)
Its the other one and its a Lubricant what helps the Spool Valve Move

There is a Procedure for cleaning the injector spool valves in the Tech Folder check it out


Whats the Oil Additive Im thinking about Guys???
Its on the tip of my toungue
