Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Transmission Average Temperature?


Jun 5, 2017

What is the average temp the transmission runs at? Wondering because it slipped the other day and the fluid smelt like it was burnt almost. Wanting to monitor it on my scan gauge and just try to ride it out as long as possible..

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2003 F250 - How To Reset Average MPG Calculator

I have a 2003 F250 4X4 PSD. How do I reset the "Average MPG" calculator? I asked because I have doubts that it is functioning properly.

Example:
Zero load, high-way driving.... the display shows 14.4mpg.
Zero load, in-town driving... the display shows 14.mpg.
1,000 lbs in the truck, pulling 4,000 lbs on the high-way for 600 miles (each way)..... the display shows 14.2mpg.

And since I've returned from the trip mentioned above with the 5K of load, it has not changed from displaying 14.2mpg.... even though I am back to high-way driving with zero load... been through 6 -8 tanks of fuel.

My expectation is that when I am traveling without a load on the high-way that it should get the best MPG. Subsequently, when I am pulling a load, utilizing the "Tow" function (without engaging O/D), that it would get worse MPG. However, it appears there is virtually no difference registered / displayed in MPG regardless of how I drive or what I tow.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Average Cranking Time To Fire Engine?

How long does it take to fire up the engine?Just got mine running today and I'm new to 6.0. It took about 4 seconds the first time, and considering this was a used engine I figured that was very fast to fire up. However, subsequent starts which I had expected to be less cranking are also taking about 3-4 seconds. I haven't had any experience with an oil actuated injection so maybe this is typical for the design?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: No Power At Operating Temperature?

This is my wife's daily driver so I've got to get it done this weekend. 05 Excursion with 04 motor, 95,xxx miles. No problems until Friday. My wife drove to Seattle for a physical therapy appointment for my daughter and when leaving she said it felt like it was idling a little weird. She was at a stop light and when it turned green she could barely move, no power. Called me and everything sounded good from the Edge. Had the truck towed from Seattle to our house, about 60 miles. Idles really rough in drive, smooth's out a bit when in neutral. Starts totally fine when cold or hot, but doesn't start acting up until at working temp. When I say there is no power I mean the truck won't even pull up our drive way that only has a slight incline and is the length of the Excursion.

Only code I get is a P1000, but that is always on the tuner for some reason. I pulled the upper fuel filter and I'm getting fuel. Checked all the fittings I can see and nothing electrical seems out of the ordinary. New IPR and ICP within the last year. Tried disconnecting the EGR and it ran the same, but threw a P0403 and P0405 code. I've tried researching this and can't seem to find anything having to do with loss of power when hot. Sitting in the street in front of the house with the truck running I show an ICP of 750psi IPR of 28% @ 680 RPM VGT is 64.6 and MAF is 44.0. I can hear the turbo whistle, but show 0 boost which I think is normal when no load. I tried pulling into the drive when at temp and the truck was hitting 1000 rpm with pedal to the floor and wouldn't move, shaking and rough the entire time. Before all this my delta on EOT and ECT were under 5*

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Low Oil Temperature - EOT Jumping Around For No Apparent Reason

I've had a Scan Gauge II in the truck for the last 3+ years and usually have it showing ECT EOT FICM main power and volts. For all that time, my numbers have been normal until last month. With the engine up to temperature (ECT at 190 or higher), my EOT is lagging behind - sometimes 20* cooler. I've also noticed the EOT jumping around for no apparent reason.

From what I understand of the 6.0 cooling system, the oil is cooled by the coolant and what I'm seeing shouldn't happen if the engine is up to temperature. The obvious fix is to swap out the EOT sensor but I figured I'd ask the experts first. Any thoughts?

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2011 - Engine Won't Warm Up To Operating Temperature?

My best friend has a 2011 Ford F-250 6.7 ltd power stroke diesel XL. He was driving to Denver in -4 degree weather when all of a sudden his windows iced up and the temperature gage would not sit at normal operating range. ( stayed all the way down on the cool side) the heater seemed to be blowing warm air not hot like it usually does. The thermostat was changed 2 months ago any thoughts on this one?

My check engine light popped on for me a couple days ago. P2043-reductant temperature sensor range/performance. Truck still runs like a raped ape, no change in driveability. Just over 21k miles. No "speed limited to 55" messages or anything else. Basically no change in the truck other than the light.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: When Engage Low Range In The Diesel / Transmission Starts In 2nd Gear

Well, last night I took my F-350 up a wheeling trail. I'd been up quite a few times in my old Rover, so I knew I could go a ways in without damage. Just uphill, muddy, and ruts / rock steps.

One thing I notice is that when you engage low range in the diesel, the transmission starts in 2nd gear. My previous gas Super Duties always started in 1st. I'm assuming this is to protect the transfer case from torque overload. Also, the throttle response seems to change when low is engaged (the pedal becomes less responsive, which is nice).

I've had the gas Super Duties off road before, and all of mine have had the locking rear diff. The diesel lugged along perfectly. My biggest fear was crunching the DPF / SCR / DOC canister on a rock step. In that respect, I'd rather wheel a gas. The manual shift function makes a lot of sense in low range - you can force a start in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd. And prevent meaningless up / down shifts since the grade can change quickly.

These trucks' biggest hindrance is their size. However, if you have the trail room, they are actually excellent off road. Many people look at a Super Duty and see a vehicle good only for pulling or hauling. Not so, these trucks are as good as a Jeep off road, again with trail room being the only concern. The locking rear diff was never really needed, but I engaged and disengaged a few times to keep the mechanism free. I really love this feature.

One thing that happens frequently for me in north-east wheeling is water crossings. Could be a simple brook but mostly it is mud holes encountered on tight trails. In some cases these are only a foot or so deep; in other cases they are 4 feet deep. Ford states to "try" to keep the water below the level of the hubs, which amounts to about 15". Aside from possible front axle contamination, my biggest concern would be the electronics on the diesel which are mounted to the frame or floor pan (transmission module, NOx module, etc.) The gas Super Duties don't have these concerns. In the old days, as long as a diesel had air, the engine would run under water. This engine requires electronic control of many things, including the injectors...so it won't. There are also some axle / transmission breathers which run about floor pan high to be concerned about, but these can be easily extended.

Maybe it's due to the twisty frame which GM loves to insult Ford about, but these trucks have excellent wheel articulation. I'd be surprised if a coil sprung power wagon flexed more, at least in the rear. I'm impressed.

Finally, the traction control. I experimented a bit on a slippery rock step. This was the only step which required the rear locker - sort of. The front wheels climbed the step, but the back flexed to the point of one rear wheel basically almost off the ground and severely unloaded. With 4x4 Low engaged, and traction control "off" as much as Ford will allow, the truck could not pull itself up. Turning traction control on allowed the truck to very nearly pull itself up. A little more throttle / finesse probably would have gotten the truck over, but lots of ETC operation glazes the brakes and spews brake dust everywhere. Being able to start in a higher gear manually really adjusts the torque control. Locking the rear end and the loaded wheel bit right in and she went up and over.

When doing some off-road driving, the "off-road" screen for those of you with the LCD message center is kind of fun and informative to watch. It's nice to see how far your wheels are turned left or right when spinning in ruts or what crazy angle your truck is on. Howie Long could probably document the exact up / down / left / right slope angle a Super Duty needs to be on in order for the tailgate not to open. I never had an reason to open the tailgate while in these crazy angles, of course.

Overall, very impressed. It's not as good as my old Range Rover, but I would say more talented off road than ALL other Ford vehicles except the Raptor.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2012 F250 Diesel - Transmission Noise When Shifts Into 5th Gear?

When the truck shifts into 5th gear i instantly feel a constant vibration and noise until it shifts to 6th gear. This happens nearly every time while driving at 40mph. Rpm range 1200 - 2000. I bought the truck new on June 30th and noticed the problem on my way to work on Monday July 2nd. Took it to the dealer on July 5th and the tech said it was the torque converter slipping. I drove it home because they didn't have time to work on it. Took it back on July 12th and the dealer has had it since (currently 30 days) They originally told me it was not the engine or transmission and it was an exhaust problem. Last week they said it was the motor mounts and said they would be done.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Transmission Need Extra Power To Downshift

I just purchased an 04 f-250 Lariat. It only has 103k miles. first time diesel owner. When I drive it, it shifts smooth as ever. BUT, when I need that extra power to downshift, nothing happens. Nothing raddles, it stays cool when it warms up. Again, normal driving behavior its fine, until it needs to downshift. I have two referred mechanics, but id like to get a little more info before I take it in.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Transmission Pan Capacity?

I was wanting to drain my trans pan and refill with new fluid. I was curious what the pan capacity is. With my 6.0 I did the drain and refill every 10,000-15,000 miles depending on how hard I worked it in those miles. It always drained out bright red and shifted like new until I had a T/C failure at 278,000 miles.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Transmission Downshifting Hard Into 5th

I tow a car hauler that is about 8000 lbs. On my last trip occasionally when the truck would downshift into 5th under a load, it would bang in there pretty hard. Not a smooth transition, not every time just some times. Just wondering it that was normal or the start of a potential issue.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Transmission Fluid Leaking?

So, had a transmission fluid leak. Couldn't find the leak so I went to a transmission shop. The diagnosis is that a snap ring broke and resulted in a hole in my tranny, something about reverse gear pressures weakly designed snap ring.

Not too happy about this, being that I had thought that the transmission was the strong point of my truck... Is this common?
