Poor performance when not warmed up
My truck 05 f250 6.0 is really dogfish ( slow acceleration and sometimes blue smoke as well as high rpm shifting point on the trans) when not up to normal operating temps .
I get no codes.
Runs good when at operating temp.
Anybody have a suggestions

I've had these symptoms before and reseal all inject solved it
I was making oil was my clue inject seals leaked until warm creating a low fuel press senero until warm
Could also be inject spool valves
Check FICM health as well

Long time No see Benny.
I was thinking injectors also. Might be time to pop all 8 out and reseal them
or it the money is not an issue a set of reman Ford injectors.
But before I spent the funds on a full set some data monitoring should be the first step.
I would look at the OBD2 setup from Forscan and also run the uncompensated power balance test.
Do it both cold and at temp. The AutoEnginuity is one to avoid as it does not do a good job reporting injector issues.
It tends to let bad injectors pass with a report that they are good.

Iwas gonna say the same thing! Good to have you back Benny!
As previously mentioned, plug in a monitor and see what codes come up. You can also see what your FICM is doing. (Main, logic, and vehicle power)
