I have a 2000 F-250 7.3 diesel. My problem is when i leave home i get about 1 mile form home and my truck losses power and i loss throttle. If i pump the throttle the engine stays and the same rpm's and the truck die's at this point a lot of white smokes come out of the exhaust and sometimes i can get it started again. I have changed batteries and fuel filter and i thought i ran good for 1 day now it's back to the same problem. i have changed the camshaft censor as well. can someone help please..thanks

 

Mashing the pedal with no response points to the TPS (Throtle Position Sensor), But the White smoke throws me. I am not sure if the IVS (Idle Validation Sensor) going haywire could cause the smoke or not?

Lets bump this back up and see

 

check your fuel pressure. also check and see if you have air bubbles in you fuel.

 

Thanks for our help i will check my fuel lines for air bubbles. I will also check my TPS and my IVS and let you know how it turns out.

 

The smoke makes me think of failed injector o-rings. (But then that would be constant, not coming and going.)
I'll be interested in hearing this outcome as well.
