6.0 No Power

My father just called me. His 6.0 was running fine. And when he left a stoplight he heard a loud ping and now the truck has no power. Any suggestions on where to start or what has happened?

Sounds like he blow off a turbo hose.... shound be easy to spot under the hood. Sometimes tho, a hole develops UNDER the bottom of one of the hoses.... leave it idling and he should be able to spot it....

There is a "no-power" troubleshooting thread in the Tech folder.
