You gotta be kidding...

I have one maybe two hunches on what this could be. But let me know what you guys think and if you guys are coming to the same conclusions then it must be it.

way too fast to read without manipulating the video

what did the info center pop up say ?

06Mud_Slut · May 2, 2013

That time it just says Door Ajar... but the video is about the truck dying right after it turns over. I think the first time it did it the a message popped up that said Check Gauges, but I can't be certain because it died right after I heard it pop up.

Ahh

have any monitoring stuff tike an edge CST ?

improper bleeding of fuel after a filter change?

oil gauge doesnt go up but it wasnt running long enough too.. I ve noticed lagtime in the gauge... especially if your using the wrong oil filter

06Mud_Slut · May 2, 2013

I got an Edge, and it's not telling me anything abnormal. There is a "Mod Volt" but I think thats the alternator. I did change the oil about 1600 miles ago, but I used a Motorcraft Filter like usual. Haven't messed with the fuel filter.

check fuel pressure

Mine did the same thing. Fell on its face twice in a row. Third time it fired up and didnt miss a beat. Scared me though.

If it was a cold start and the timing was too advanced (extreme tune) this could happen, but not this time of the year and almost never in the lower 40 (8 might be cold enough in the winter). It could also happen with weak glowplugs.

It did this 7 times total and still hasn't started... I don't want to keep doing it, and I have no way of checking my fuel pressure until I get a gauge. I was thinking something FICM or HPOP related... But that may just be me going worse case. I drove it this morning fine and then came back out about 4hrs later and it started doing it.

Pull the FICM relay and crank it and see if it builds oil pressure.

Codes?

I've had several start-stall conditions related to the cam sensor getting corrosion buildup behind it and pulling it away from the block, thus pulling the sensor end away from the timing pin in the camshaft.

Could be any number of things, even a stuck open EGR valve, or total loss of fuel pressure/volume.

A good scan tool is likely the next thing you're going to need to be into.

06Mud_Slut · May 2, 2013

No codes, and tomorrow i'm picking up a pressure gauge and voltage meter to check FICM. All I see on the forums here and other diesel sites are HPOP and FICM, and ICP; so I'm kind of expecting this to be a huge pain.

Cold Roller · May 2, 2013

Loosing sync or FICM issues are the most likely. Without monitor, we all are guessing, but you had to have some fuel, hpo, and FICM injector sequencing to get the first burn.

It might be worth it to pay to have it diagnosed at a dealer who has a good diesel guy.

There's so many things that could cause this and the only scan tool in my opinion that does the job 100 percent is the IDS.
