Original problem was cel came on, really rough running with it.

Today I think I figured out that one of the dual alts is bad. I have dual alts, and one does not come on until after the glow plugs shut off. This is why I thought my volts were good. The one that goes when you start it doesn't work. I am having a very reliable shop rebuild both alternators. I'll let everyone know how it goes on monday when I get them back.

Two rules when buying a used 6.0l. There will be breakdowns and make sure you have a spare car...

Put two new alternators in today, code went away and it seems to have fixed everything. Alternator guy said one alt wasnt working at all and the other was barely putting out 13.5 intermitantly.

I can still feel a slight stumble at 1500 rpms though. Does anyone know if it could be a warn motor mount?

I'm going to do a write up on changing belts/alts on a dual alternator system, I couldn't find anything on the subject online.
