Okay guy's I just joined the group and I hope someone out there can help. I have a 2009 F-350 Super Duty. We purchased the truck with a 103,000 on it and it was in beautiful shape at 105,000 the motor went into limp mode and we found it was washed. I found a great mechanic who rebuilt the motor at a reasonable price, Out the door $13,500. I did the delete kit and installed a tuner. At first the truck was running strong, hwy miles anywhere from 25 to 30 mpg and we were ecstatic. The first issue came up about 6 months latter with a code showing the exhaust pressure sensor low we changed that and everything was good for about a month and now it's in all kinds of trouble. Had an injector go out so we changed that again everything was good for about a week now I'm having all kinds of issues. Anywhere between 7 to 10 codes coming up, cruise won't engage, tow haul switch acting up and just running like crap when it's first started in the morning with a little white smoke added into the black. Once it's warm it's not running too bad. HELP. I wanted to add we first changed the tuner thinking it was the problem and went to the Mini Max, not much different in the way it run's.

 

Show us codes or keep pulling your pants down!

how do we know if the motor was rebuilt vs a junk yard dog being put in?

you have injectors issues now...where the injectors replaced?

what was done on the rebuild?

you have a lot of ancillary systems failures and the fact that the engine was removed/reinstalled would have me starting with connections and linkages

your not going to get much help with this from the forum as no one would know how the rebuild was handled.

was there a warranty with the work..might be a place to start.

 

The motor was a complete rebuild and I watched it go together and checked on it every day. New H.P. Injectors were installed, bored and new pistons and rods, new H.P. cam and fuel pump, ARB studs, and the smaller of the two turbos as well just to name a few items. The guy who built it did give me a warranty and has been great to work with just searching for ideas. I was also thinking connection issue. This has us both stumped right now. I'm going to pull the codes and list them here once I get the chance.
