    6.0 cranks no start

    6.0 cranks no start

    I saw a video on you tube that basically said if your icp was the problem unpluging it would allow it to start. I did that today, no start. Can I actually rule that out or no?

    6.0 cranks no start

    I've check it for codes it has none. I did get under the truck and look at the icp sensor it seems it's covered in oil and that's one of the signs isn't it?

    6.0L runs rough at idle and blows black smoke

    another thing i wanted to ask is on the intake side of the turbo at every joint where the aluminum pipe goes from the turbo to the cooler, to the intake, all the rubber joints are oily? something about that seemed fishy to me? is that a sign of something else wrong???
