Performance issues
Hey guys I have an 03 6.0 powerstroke my problem all started the other day when I started to occasionally not get any boost on acceleration and lose of power and a lot of vibration like it's about to cut out but it got worse now today I drove it about 5 miles into town when I got to town I noticed a rough idle I got gas in a gas can not in the truck lol I got back in to leave and I had absolutely no power at all the truck stalled out and it was very hard to start finally got it started and it runs really rough almost like it's going to shut off so when I started driving I would only make it about a mile or so with out it chocking out and having to let it site for a minute or two and start it back up and go another mile or 2 and have it do the same thing all the way home all the time I have vary little boost if any at all except for when I first pull out now oil pressure is good and engine never over heated some of the codes I have is an EGR code and a contribution balance code for several cylinders I was thinking possibly a maf sensor or a clogged egr not working right I don't know please help what do you guys think? Thanks in advance

I see you fell through the cracks..... Well, where do we start? First 2 things and I am just guessing, you have no fuel pressure and the EGR valve is not working. You have a metric port on the upper fuel filter where you can thread in to attach a pressure gauge. When is the last time you replaced fuel filters and the EGR valve?

it started last week with a loss of power no boost at times and a lot of shaking like it was getting ready to shut off because of lack of fuel mainly on the interstate and while pulling long hills so I changed the filters thinking they were severely clogged but it got so bad to the point now wear it won't even start

see that's exactly what I was thinking you just confirmed it. what gave it away for me was that there was no fuel except for a little puddle at the bottom of the upper fuel bowl

well the only trouble with warming it up is the truck won't start at all right now so I'm assuming the pump is probably toast I ordered a new pump last week just waiting for it to get hear I'll find out once I put it in

Sometimes its a good choice to get some stuff from oreilleys,advance,auto zone because you have your local warranty plus on the road at any there stores,no waiting to mail it back and forth while trucks down.
