  1. I have a 05 6.0 that the coolant just smells horrible, makes you want to gag,

    I feel like most likely cause is egr cooler starting to go.

    has anyone else seen this?

    or is it possible head gaskets? but I don't feel like that would be it, I feel like the egr cooler is more likely the cause,

    its hard to describe but kidna like a rotten egg smell.

     

  2. Hi I have a 92 7.3 idi 2wd f350, its actually lower mileage and runs great besides two concerns and completely lost on where to even start, and if they may be related,

    every once in while engine will stall, while driving go to accelerate and nothing is there no pedal response and rpm drops under 1000 and then stalls, pulled over on side

    of road and cycled key it cranked for 10 seconds and fired right back off, also when driving 3rd gear has a harsh downshift.

    where do I even begin?

  3. I'm running 5w40 full synthetic and I also ran two bottles of rev x, it helped, but still has a cold start misfire,

    like I said never messed with any of them and didn't know if it was worth it. from the cost It would be cheaper to put FICM in than two injectors, if I send out my FICM it would be same cost as 1 injector, so that's why I'm just throwing around idea, I have 3 6.0s i own, this is in my 03 2wd excursion has 245k on it, my 05 250 I've ran 5w40 in it for last 3-4 years and it doesn't have any problems, and my 04 4wd excursion I rebuilt the motor and haven't got it running yet.

  4. Never really messed with the upgraded FCIM's, I have a 03 6.0 that I own and its got some pretty bad cold start misfires, and if the ficms are worth taking care of stiction then it would almost be cheaper than injectors.  any recommendations weather its worth while to upgrade to 58volt.

    where would you suggest to get one, or send it to?

    And I know there is upgraded tunes for them too?
