Well it died on me about a block from the house. I used my ATV and pulled it to the house. No SES light whatsoever. I just went back out there after it cooled down a bit and she cranked right up. Drove her around the block with no issues. This really leaves me scratching my head. I borrowed my ol mans toyota to drive till I can get her in the shop. The local diesel shop everyone recommended doesn't have room for it till Fri or Mon. Even the local dealership recommended them, so I guess it is worth the wait.

FWIW--Jboczar probably gave you the solution to your problem earlier. He's a pretty doggone good diagnostician. Stuck open EGR valve on a no start??? Nope, sorry, never heard of that crap.

Guys I know I am reviving my old thread but I have yet to get this problem fixed. I have already scratched one dealer off of my list. I am just terrified to bring it into the dealer. Me fixing it myself makes me even more nervous. I only have just over $3k to get it back running right. Is there anyone in the Memphis area that works on these 6.0s that is reliable? or a member looking to make some money on the side? Thanks again for the input.

Well I just got the call from the shop. Turned out to be a blow EGR cooler resulting from a clogged oil cooler. I am looking at about $3600 to have a EGR delete and oil cooler replaced. Thanks for all the IMs over the last few days.
