Long crank, now no start
We had someone tow a 6.0 in for a no start. The first thing I saw was a spare tire on the right front and knew the switch was tripped. I've even kicked the kick panel on a buddys truck to screw with him. Sometimes the switch is too sensitive. -

ATF In The Brake System?
If ATF is in the master cylinder, I can see their reason for replacing the hydro boost. That's the only place it could come from.- greasltn

Brake Pedal Drops To The Floor?
You have hydroboost. It looks more like the master cylinder is leaking. Check to see what fluid is low, brake fluid or power steering fluid, that will tell you what is leaking. If the booster is leaking it would be red because it works off the power steering pump.- greasltn

6.4 water pump cavitation
It wouldn't hurt to look but most of the cavitation problems I've seen are on the 450 and 550s due to the lower gear ratio. If you pull the pump just look at the cover behind the pump to see if there is a problem, it will be very easy to tell if there is. -
Billet flexplate
I think the 6.0 and the 6.4 flexplates are balanced different. If so this will cause a vibration.- greasltn

On board air install. NEED HELP
Some pressure switches can't hold the AMP draw of a compressor and need a relay wired in. If your switch can't handle the power it will weld the leads together and be constant. You may want to test the switch and replace if bad and wire a relay in with it.- greasltn

No heat at idle.
A broken blade is possible, but most likely impeller is just free spinning. -

You might want to check the water pump. I've seen a couple where the impeller slips on the shaft and will not circulate the coolant at low RPM. -
need help truck wont start
You may have to bleed the high pressure system. I've seen this on a couple of trucks. Just loosen the driverside line feeding the rail and turn it over until you see no more air bubbles then tighten it back up.- greasltn

Freeze plug blow out in head
I've never seen one blow out, it could have been installed wrong or just happened to be the weakest one when the water in the engine froze. -
Cts turbo timer
The genera rule is 400deg. but 300deg. is being super safe. Some people do time to suit their needs because it doesn't take these trucks long to cool down.- greasltn
